Whether AF, conventional Buddhism, or something else, we come to these practices seeking some kind of peace. Arguing volumes over a question like which practice leads to the better enlightenment is incredibly ironic.

To speak of dharma from some place other than the concentration and insight you've developed through practice is like openly drinking a bottle of vodka at an alcoholics anonymous meeting.

when we open our mouths, it is filled with dharma

Your post rings of meta-irony

It's a matter of intent.

Nicely said!


While I agree with your point here, a lot of people's mouths are filled with diarrhea which they'll zealously excrete over anyone looking for a spiritual "Cleveland Steamer" to make them happier.
