passion is attachment.

from attachment comes desire.

desire springs forth superficial "need".

superficial need conjures up delusion.

delusion leads to blinding diversions.

a life not free from desire and passion is always involved with distress and suffering.

and now, back to happy thoughts...

Nice!

Related note... did you ever read a short story called "True Names" by Vernor Vinge? This was DECADES ago, but he envisioned an electronic universe where everyone had an alias, and you could get into serious trouble if anyone ever found out your true name.

And look at us now!

i'm just your 100% au naturel cynic, my friend.

actually, that drivel came about after attending Anil Revri's "cultural crossings" exhibit last week, whose artwork incorporated 6 major religions (christianity, judaism, buddhism, hiduism, islam, sikkhism) whereby each of those religion's teachings had some sort of language denouncing passion and desire (or something to that effect). just food for thought.

it was DeNiro's character in "Heat" who said, "never put anything in your life where you can't walk away from in 30 seconds flat when you feel heat coming around the corner."

this is why one (yours truly) strives to live a completely detached life. or so i think. :rolleyes:
