Enlightenment is coming to the realization that Buddhism is a religion, i.e. that it's mostly false.

Sadism is not torture as regarded in the teachings of Buddha. Consensual behavior between people, even in this dynamic, is acceptable unless you are speaking about the nature of the acts themselves. That would be a different story depending on your stature within the community. You would probably face more issues with your community members than you would with Buddha.

No, I'm not Buddhist, but I thoroughly enjoy the principles and teaching. I wouldn't stress on it nor would I call it a vice. It's a life choice that brings much great happiness to those involved.

@kirata I would say the fact that I do my best to follow the buddhas teachings and self identify as such would make me a buddhist

All compounded things are impermanent.
All emotions are pain.
All things have no inherent existence.
Nirvana is beyond concepts.

Oh, and you have to be in good standing with the Buddhists Union.

I think he's in trouble on the non-attachment factor.

You do indeed have a number of local temples, my friend.

Go. Tell them our mutual friend, Bill W, sent you.

Once you're comfortable with those temples, add this one:
