I grew up going to Manley P Hall's center. Not that I was into it then but later I read texts from www.gnosis.org and I really like the books not deemed fit to go in the Bible. In particular Jesus' teachings, go figure.
Well, I was thinking about the type of Gnosticism that denounces the world as evil, an abortion created by a monstrously incompetent and malevolent lesser deity. > But my point was that, with or without the gunas, with God in heart or without, with dharma or without, Krishna would tell Arjuna to push the button first if the Nukes were lined up on both sides. I don't really dig that stance. Are you stipulating that there's no other option than one side or the other pushing the button first? And are you saying you'd prefer Krishna to allow the other side to push it first? Seems to me in a MAD (mutual assured destruction) situation, it wouldn't matter much who pushed the button first.
