“Basically to be treated as a hero was to be treated as a mythical being. It was the equivalent of being seen as belonging to another world, another race, another time. Deep inside us we’ve all had a glimpse of that world and that time at one moment or another. But to live what we’ve glimpsed, or allow it to be lived- that’s something else.”

Mahasiddha Khaḍgapa
Khaḍgapa was a low-caste thief. One day, he met the yogin Carpati who was seated in meditation. When Khaḍgapa asked Carpati what he was doing, Carpati said that he was meditating because he feared birth and death.
When Carpati asked him if he wanted to learn how to meditate, Khaḍgapa replied that he did not have time, asking instead for instructions on how to steal without being caught.
Carpati told him to go to the city that had a stūpa with a statue of the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara inside. He should circumambulate it for three weeks without sitting down. When a black snake emerged from the stūpa, he should grab it.
Khaḍgapa did so, and the snake immediately turned into a sword of knowledge. He was purified of his negative karma from stealing and obtained the power of the sword, one of the eight magical powers.

Shalom Goys,
Redpilled Ben Shapiro here, back for another Talmud lesson. Today we're gonna talk about Pantera. Not the band, but the soldier. Ever wonder why they would pick that name? Are there people in the music industry who want to spread this myth?
During the codification of the Talmud around 200 A.D. Rabbi Eliezer taught that Jesus learned magic in Egypt, which He brought back to Jerusalem. He further claims that Mary was pimped out by Joseph to a local Roman soldier named Pantera. Which Jews believe is Jesus's real father. (B Shabbat 104b)
This is refuted by Origen in Advers Celsus. It's also historically stupid, and from a Rabbi known for tall tales speaking about 200 years after the fact.
First century sources had three theories on the parentage of Jesus and NONE of them implied adultery. Ebionites assumed Jesus was born of Joseph and Mary, and became an avatar of God. The Apostles told of the Virgin birth, and Gnostics believed Jesus was the son of the goddess Sophia, and had no real human body.

“Once you had passions and named them evil. But now you have only your virtues: they grew out of your passions.
You set your highest goal at the heart of these passions, and then they became your virtues and passions of pleasure.
And whether you stemmed from the clan of the irascible or the lasciv- ious or the fanatic or the vengeful:
Ultimately all your passions became virtues and all your devils became angels.
Once you had wild dogs in your cellar, but ultimately they transformed into birds and lovely singers.
Out of your poisons you brewed your balsam; your cow, melancholy, you milked – now you drink the sweet milk of its udder.
And now nothing evil grows anymore out of you, unless it is the evil that grows from the struggle among your virtues.”
Nietzsche
