>>19444816Money is worthless just like the world you swore allegiance to, and because of this self-inflicted restraint you ceased to be able to see how good things could be if men weren't such weak-minded/hearted/spirited faggots.
>[...] denying egoism is "spiritual" in nature.There is the desire of the self to learn, which comes from the "ego" of the "self", but if the intent of that entity is to learn it for the sake of the environment around it, then it ceases to be an "egoistical desire" as in one which will only benefit the beholder of knowledge.
In the same way how an idiot would call the God as an egoist for using us to learn, but then again if these times weren't allowed to happen at least (and only) once, then we'd eventually lead ourselves back to them anyway.
As there is purpose beyond this - to conclude in an union between the unknowing man and the knowing God - it ceases to be a matter of "egoism" even if it initially came from the "ego" of the self, the personal desire to have something, to observe something.
In the same way how I'd personally desire to see a better world, because I "egoistically" yearn for it - but then there's purpose to it beyond just me seeing the kind of world I want to see, something that would become obvious once it became manifest - thus also proving again, that there is more to knowledge than just knowing things.
>>19444825Buddha was about freeing yourself from desire and reducing yourself to the simplest form. But at that level of simplicity, there is nothing grand to be had - and complexity requires mastery of knowledge and then dedication to keep it all in order.
You're an "academic" imbecile student throwing words around whose meaning has been distorted but which you claim is "knowledge" just because someone with authority told you it was good to "know".
