Certainly not everything is a contest. If one party chooses not to play, the contest is over.
Apart from that: this was meant as a metaphor - it hardly matters who wins.
Do not look for happiness outside yourself. The awakened seek happiness inside.

You are entitled to your views here. No one , especially I , will say that is not true for you if that's your choice. I can only speak for my self . I am never in contest with you. I try not to be I should say. That is my focus. The reason for this "Block" it to try to let others know that. To try to help others. Never to create conflict. You will find stories and myths that you don't agree or even see as valid. That's to you and your choices as well. Your choices are your own. I find a many myths , stories , lights, ways, beliefs , ideas, paths , roads, practices ( add any and you own additional ways to discribe things here) I'm not 100 percent agreeable with. That's ok. I hope you find what you seek while in this place , Happy seeking and my the Force be with you .Kyrin Wyldstar wrote:

If one party chooses not to engage then they have lost. Wouldn't you agree? An invading army unresisted occupies that space Invaded.

Are you now advocating the censorship of free ideas In contradiction to your previous post at the start of this thread?

No one ever said censorship , on the opposite , I encourage every idea and every light !!! Let it come!!! let it all hang out ! Create threads and forums for this and many more ! Open up ! Grow ! That's the idea take it and use it to get more responses and more ways and sides , use it for thinking and involvement ! Do it ! That's the purpose !
Edit : feel free to link the beginnings of threads here ! Great idea !

Yes but do you think the free flow of ideas will never bring contention? Is that not the very idea of such a place as this... the exploration of ideas, or is it simply a sounding board to reverberate your ideas?
