Wise men, possessed of knowledge, by giving up the fruit of actions, are freed from the bonds of birth and reach the abode beyond evil.

Even if the wise men perform actions, they are not affected by their results; and

so they escape the vexations of death and rebirth. When, O Arjuna, they become endowed with buddhiyoga, they attain to the eternal state of bliss.

i just loved writer's bla, bla... of course jk is a fearful man, probably very much feared of this life that appears before jk's senses, and yet not feared ... may be to understand that fear and fearlessness, experiences are a must ... experiences that take people beyond their senses ... may be even beyond time ... may be God like variety, perhaps that's why so you are what you are jk is what jk is and God still remain the inscrutable ... otherwise what's the big fun ... if different people do not percieve things differently, why should we have a race called Human race ... the Race of ants were enough right ... jk is pleased to see the nice thoughtful inputs ... thanks for all those ...

blissful ignorance,

the wise nihilist stands above all our petty decision-making, he has no morality or emotion attached to his limited tasks, which all become benign and automatic; what concerns him is not what we so desperately strive to make happen.

And life generously falls into place once everything is rendered as quotidian.

Careful carelessness. Choosing not to choose, wu-wei, effortless efficiency, and all that jazz.

babble babble babbling words someone used to try sounding smart.

this is the life of a monk, or someone who sits around and contemplates life too much, instead of living it.

In my eyes its a fearful person, or the worst kind of ignorance.

Because it describes a way of thinking that has crippled you to a standstill. Almost as if any choice a person makes, that person knows it doesnt matter, or learned there is no right answer for whatever reason.

A person who doesnt go out and take a chance at life, doesnt experience success and failure, doesnt believe in Love, and all its Joy and sorrow, or doesnt have a dream accept to sit and think about what move is right or wrong, well thats not a life worth living.
Some monks or people would disagree saying constant meditation helps bring about enlightenment others will never know.
Well, Id rather make choices learn to perservere through bad ones, and bask in the god ones.
whoever said this has to much time on their hands I tell you

ADDITION:
Actually in rereading it, its a person whos claiming that if a "wise" man makes any mistake its the right one, because nomatter what the decision a wise man stands above any harm loss or pain, even death

Still back to what I said above....someone with far to much time on their hands, either that or someonme with a really contemptuous attitude

Sounds like what Clinton or Greenspan would say and actually say nothing at all.

Double talk that can have as meanings as you Can dream up.

A way not to have to do anything and have others do it for you.

nonsense

simply the male principle
presence

it is enough to know that whever you go you merely meet yourself
and that there is no identity beyond the absolute

from this place of recognition of self as the manifest- the feminine and the formless- the male

there is only the oneness that is love
as love one meets all with and in love and as love

as this stillness there is only peace
i peace there is only wholness
in wholeness there is only communion
in communion there is only nothing
in nothing there is everything

and as such we chop wood, drink drink and eat food
and sometimes when needed use the toilet
