dear karma yeshe ,

very nicely said ,

I have just arrived here , and to see a post devoted to disscusson on disschord and schysms , I nearly un registered .
however I am a very tollerant person so have persevered ...... to hear someone new speaking so evenly is very refreshing .

I remember many years back being given a teaching on the 84,000 deluded states of mind identified by the buddha , upon which he gave the 84,000 teachings ,
from this I think we might learn a little caution and humillity ,

can I even count to 84,000 ? no probably not , let alone remember all the teachings ?
yet we can remember three , ......attatchment , anger , ignorance ,
and then be mindfull to apply the antidote practices , generosity , patience and wisdom .
generosity in allowing another his oppinion , patience in letting him find his own way , and wisdom in knowing how to help him rather than argue with him !

so yes , I second karma yeshe 's sentiments and hope that as he says these squables "can be resolved "before we disscredit a noble tradition.

namaskars ratikala

In Fairness, Everyone here has been very gracious and has a very Interesting Piont of veiw and there are very good topics for every level and type of student.

Also, I have been guilty of tending to be more active in the Threads that are more relevant to My Lineage and less when I have a difference of opinion with the origanal post.

Welcome to the Forum and dive right in...The water is great !
