What is more important to you, freedom or security ?

Frank Gazaway: Security.

Rhett Kaines: If you have to give up your freedom for security then you're not really secured.

Rubi Romo: In the words of Abraham Lincoln: "Long enough to reach the ground."[Uhh....on second thought, I think his famous reply was a response to a slightly different question. Sorry.]

Launa Weingarten: We live senselessly on this Earth if we don't learn anything from our mistakes...

Michel Mccaulley: Essentially from a philosophical point of view.......Absolute freedom is chaos.Total security is stagnation.There would always be the need to balance the two in order to ensure dynamic progress.

Alma Twomey: Hemachandrudu,You need to read the link to Osho one of the most awakened human beings since the Buddha. Consciousness is not the source of the mind. Mind is a programming.

Sammy Kar: Martial Arts (two black belts, other experiences in other Arts)*Hard work (physical/intellectual)*Humility (nothing like a regular! , thorough tail-kicking to activate the "reset button" of one's ego/arrogance!)*Justice (you have the power, now go do some good!)*Physical Fitness (you have the power, now maintain it!)Military Service (former military officer)*Honor (do the right thing, now matter how inconvenient it is)*Courage (under fire/of one's convictions)*Commitment (always follow through/attention to detail)*Patriotism (this is MY country, and I represent it through MY actions/accomplishments)Law school*Give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but trust no one!*Perseverance (no matter what, you CAN succeed)*Justice (the knowledge that there really IS justice in the world and how to get it for others...)

Jonelle Eligio: A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it. After a whil! e I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning th! e other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do. If I start to feel afraid a! nd think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.Love and blessings Your brother don...Show more

Julee Lanham: @,Osho is in the Buddhist Zen lineage. I know because I asked him. Few see the Zen in him unless unless you are looking deeply.

Kenneth Blacker: What accomplishments have you made that makes you proud to be who you are? What motivates you to be a better person?

Jene Licausi: adagio58, Thank you for the video but do have it in my files. Sad to say but fundamentally there is only one way to ! mediate which is without the mind. This One has been an instructor of ! mediation at this Monastery for the last 22 years now and the first lesion is to not look for results. When the breath comes in it must stop to turn around to go in the out direction. Again at its peak the breath must stop first to bring air in. We never notice the stopping moment gap, it happens so quickly. Observation of the gap becomes clear with time and the mind will be lost within it. That is meditation taught by the Buddha. Take a look/see....Show more

Marita Stadick: I think, Freedom with the Security, will Never Counter acted with the FEAR. There will be Fearless Life.

Elli Esaw: @ Consider throwing away all that book learning and sit and do nothing. So much of Buddhism has become contaminated. The best advice this One can offer at this point in your confusion is to find a Zen Master of direct linage from master to master from the Buddha. Short of that explore Vipassana, inner vision. However, thank you for the answer but…Take a look/see....Show more

Ulrike Hert: If we have freedom we can put security...........

Hal! Rouse: What a silly question!!!Freedom itself is identical with securi! ty.If someone feels experienced of his freedom, than also feels secure .

Carli Watterson: if you give up freedom for security, you're a slave to the people who are supplying said security... therefore, you are not free

Davida Gisriel: Charity and generosity, humbleness and simplicity, sympathy and kind-heartedness, courage and confidence, gutts and perseverance

Boris Hadsall: Buddha spent a lot of time doing the hard work that got him to where he was. Nothing short of that got him anywhere. And when he just stopped thinking about it and started doing it he got where he wanted to be. You want to be still and free of mental activity. At least of any activity that may be interfering with your ability to observe yourself in a more tranquil manner. Because absolute stillness is a relative thing. But one that must be calm enough to perceive the conscientious activities as they pass by. Believe me, in this part of the world finding that is not an easy thing to do! . I spend most of my waking hours coordinated socially and manage to put a few moments of that day into myself where I sit and meditate until I find myself and manage to shake off the daily waves of activity that have had me busy. In other words, finding what you are looking for in this part of the world is very hard work to say the least....Show more

Jerald Florence: There is no correlation between height and length. It will be the length it is and at 15 may already be finished growing. Caucasian, statistical average erection is 6 inches.

Fannie Collingwood: Jesere,Absolutely no confusion on this One’s part. Mind is a conditioning programmed mostly by others from the moment of birth. The brain has many functions but they are simply functions. If you have experienced the astral body jump to the etheric body and observe both. There is no such thing as a spiritual mind. When body, mind and consciousness has been left behind only awareness remains. Awareness is the only thing that can transcend the relative field. Thanks for your input....Show more

Tyree Allenbrand: life can turn the tables on you ,at the moment you least expect it, for the better or worst.

Patricia Bolduc: You cannot have one without the other.

Clinton Quant: Yes, definitely I had some major changes in my life.Starting from ! leaving School and moving to College, I changed my attitude towards things and people in my life, I used to be very friendly and then get stabbed from my closest friends; then my relationship with my Boyfriend that lasted 5 years, I ruined it all by myself with my deception and lies that I used to tell my Boyfriend about. Now I realized that what I used to be is not going to get me anywhere and I have to start a brand new chapter in my life. I used to be so dumb, stupid and easily conned by the surroundings, I used to believe anything that is said to me; putting in mind that all people are very good and honest to themselves and to me too, I mean what could possibly make them lie to me!Now, I'm thinking 3 steps ahead in everything, I used to be clueless on what am I going to be with my life, my Boyfriend really taught me a lot and the love we had left me an unhealed scare that will always remind me from now and then by my previous mistakes in life.I'm good now, but I'm neith! er happy nor satisfied.I won't reach happiness now unless I reach my go! als in life,Which are basically graduating from College this semester God willing, start working at a prestigious company and travel abroad to become an Entrepreneur and such big deal in this world. I promised myself that I WILL PROVE to everyone that I've changed and I'm going to make a difference not only in my life but also in others God willing....Show more

Frank Gazaway: Perhaps because mind is not involved? Watching is not a quality of the mind; watching is the quality of consciousness; watching is not a mental process at all. When you watch, the mind stops ceases to be. Is not stopping the mind the key to deep mediation and awakening? Please; help from the advanced.

Adan Alipio: I don't cope well when under controller.

Salvador Prchlik: Baldwin,Mind is a tool not an identity but first and foremost it’s a conditioning. Go back to sleep now.

Ollie Hamiel: JORGE N, So many people m! iss understand Buddha’s enlightenment. He got nowhere as you put it.! The he disappeared completely when he practiced Vipassana as he later taught. Observing the self is impossible for there is no such thing. Thanks.

Freddy Shutler: the hot Hampshire state motto is nice: stay freed from Die Patrick Henry stated "supply me Liberty or supply me loss of existence." What good is protection in case you are able to not exercising you rights? What good is freedom from attack in case you do not have freedom of nevertheless, speech, concept, protection etc. many times situations, the protection that threatens your rights will do away with your protection from exterior threats via coming up an interior ri! sk interior the form of the government. i'm tempted to assert that individuals care greater approximately protection. fantastically after 9/11, individuals basically hear the be conscious terrorism or national protection, and that they are prepared to place in writing a sparkling verify to the government. this is an unlucky holdover from the chilly conflict and the fear of the purple hordes of Communism. although, in modern situations, individuals have replaced their ideas.
