Re: A Tale of Two Paths: The Renunciate and the Householder
the renunciate, the householder and the business people who use the trappings and techniques of religion to accumulate power and wealth ... Very good point and you are right. Example, the VIPs.

If you are capable, live your life without holding the hand of some thing like bkwso, or whatever they call themselves today. Find your own path...

Re: A Tale of Two Paths: The Renunciate and the Householder
