The question to LOTC still stands - how does his view lead to a moral imperative to do good and/or avoid evil?
Weird question about your hair and fingernails.

Let LOTC answer your question...which I think would be the same answer as a Christian would give...which would be?

LOL. Took me a moment to get it.

A Christian's answer would be linked in with morality, God, sin, soul etc. LOTC claims he doesn't need spirituality. So we shall wait to see what he says.

The term “spiritual” means different things to different people. LOTC seems to be using it almost as a synonym for “supernatural.” I don’t, but it can be confusing.

With regard to the question of “it’s all one” versus “we’re each of us separate,” I like to use the phrase entangled-with. That phrase entangled-with is just my attempt to capture the idea that, to see just the ground (e.g., Brahman) and not the figures/forms that stand out (ex-ist) from the ground, is as much illusion (maya) as to think that the figures/forms are somehow separate from the ground, and not connected with each other through the ground.

Why must one not do evil?
Because if you have no ego, harming another will be like harming yourself.

How can anything be like "harming yourself" when you have no ego, no "yourself"?

That is an oxymoron.

In my initial post I stated: "human ego".
By "yourself" in my last post I mean the whole universe, everything...

Me personally...I considermyself "SPIRITUAL" and not "RELIGIOUS",
Religion causes a lot of mental illnesses like Psychosis,Dipolar disorders,depression,schitzophranic patterns,Paranoia,multiple personalities, I mean. One religious man toldme that he missed me going to church. I said if you did....why havent you called the house to check up on me and my family...my number is in the church directory....Yet you see me here on church day and NOW you miss me and my family because thats the religious thing too do. IN truth...this man is a masterful fornicater...Outside of church he sleeps with many women....then after he had the woman he affflicts himself with guilt...by which then he gives a sorrowful confession and say this is not right...then he try to bring the girl to church. She dips on him. Then he persue the next woman. Have sex with her...then he inflicts himself with guilt again. The woman flees because he mentions God and Church. Then he does this alter ego cycle over and over again. It gets worse. Away from church he is a player....chasing lonely women and saying whatever it takes to get with them....then in church he plays a very prominent holy man...which he has mastered over the years. He has two personalities. I find this to be common with Religious People. Along with other psychotic and very demented mental illnesses. Yet Spiritual People are free from ALL of these things....because they see the diffrance between man made religion and spiritual truth. They "know" that SPIRITUAL TRUTH transends ALL RELIGIOUS BEHAVIOR.....That it transends ALL RELIGIONS. In conclusion....I rather be Spiritual than Religious. But if you want a mental illness. Go to church and become VERY RELIGIOUS...in a few months.....You will develope some Psychotic disorder! I promise you! YOu will!
