Namo Buddhaya
Peace and love to all the dear ones in Dhamma.
Concerning question 10; in my humble opinion, the question has value because Arahants are the end product of the process of Dhamma. We must have some understanding of them, otherwise we will not follow the process. The Buddha himself said no one of us in 2024 can become Him, thus we look at the Arahants as rolemodels. Please excuse my question for sounding disrespectful or unneeded. The question simply wanted to find out: If he makes a choice, he must be motivated to make the choice so what is motivating him? Or, in other words, question 12…
Question 12: Have you ever seen a video of Ramana Maharshi? He looks like an Arahant, doesn’t he? No will, no desire, no motivation… no clothes! Yet, the people who stood around him would feel their minds calming and being able to realize the nature of reality. My simple mind cannot imagine anything more “Arahant” than that.
@Lal Dear sir. If one may be allowed to offer some humble feedback to your excellent website. It appears that when you get emotional you make short replies; when you are not emotional you make long replies. But perhaps it would be better for your Dhamma practice if when you’re emotional you make long replies and when you are unemotional you make short replies. It would show you more of the mud in your glass of water. This is meant with great love and respect.
