https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vidya>Vidyā is a Sanskrit noun meaning "right knowledge" or "clarity". It is frequently used in Hinduism as an honorific implying the Puranic conception of knowledge and learning. Vidya is an epithet of the Hindu goddess Sarasvati, consort of Brahma (according to Hindu beliefs). She has superior spiritual feminine energy—the Param Prakriti—which purifies, empowers, and uplifts the individual. Hence, she is called the Goddess of Learning.HOLY FUCK /v/, we are divine beings playing vidya games all day.
does this mean when I die i'll have 78 virgins waiting for me?
We've been walking the path of enlightenment all along!!!

Brahma is a faggot.Sincerely, Karna.

This is exactly why people should listen to us when we talk.We said Skyrim would be bland and they told us we hated funWe said DA2 was awful and they called up homophobesWe said TOR would sink and they called us foolsWe said D3 was a trick and they fell for it anywayThe Vidya has always known the truth and always will.

Instead of circle jerking over how much better you are now that you know what Vidya means, why don't you make vidya threads instead so you contribute to the board.
We need a "/v/ - Right Knowledge", STAT.
So now we have a reason for claiming higher knowledge?I'm on board.

>>140956072No prophets. Only enlightenment through vidya.
Rage is true clarity
Ah, so the name of the "Avidya World" made sense all along.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidy%C4%81
/r/ pic from gintama talking about how older games are better
>>140954856Today we are born new men.There is no going back now.
>>140956221It is only through rage that we truly see things the way they are. However, untempred rage can cloud one's senses, which is why the Enlightened hone their rage-controlling skills daily in the hallowed Rage Threads.

>>140956320>avidya is ignorance>vidya is true knowledgeAll I'm picking up from this is that a vidyagaem is ignorant and the vidya is true knowledge. It all points to us not liking videogames but coming to /v/.

>>140956493Temper your temper.Turn your rage against itself.Do not destroy your controller.Rather, destroy the boss.That is Vidya.

The gods of vidya:SarasvatiAsuraWho else?
>tfw I've read Mahabharata, Sanskrit epic which was written 1000 years before J.R.R. Tolkien was even born. >tfw Hollywood will never be able to make movies of it because Indians are too bitchy about their Gods being portrayed in movies Fuck this. Arjun, one of the main guys in the epic makes Legolas look like babby. Also the main purple guy, Krishna is like Aragorn fused with Gandalf. The entire story is full of epic wars, Gods romancing and raping each others wives and shit and then fighting more wars, and there's tons of magical creatures which Indians worship as Gods even today.
>>140959801Well, before we play we recite the vidyamantra, which focuses our mind on the task at hand and immerses us in the game world.
>>140959801There isn't really supposed to be a God, Vidya is supposed to represent an aspect of ourselves deep within.... but if deep within you feel rage to relate to Asura's Wrath, then so be it. To seek the inner self takes patience, and a feminine aspect to want to know your depths. With Vidya games, we find rage in our core within the virtual worlds we thrive in.

>>140960487>>140960427>>140960347Since it is impossible for me to rage now, I will just calmly advise you that /v/ has found enlightenment. Gaben no longer has control over dominion of /v/. He can now spend the rest of his days in /mlp/.

>when looking for pictures of rage, only reddit shows upThe anger only makes me stronger.
>>140962495
>>140961262It goes like this.Brahman (SUP BRAH) is the supreme being experiencing all that is. Brahman is everything, including you & I, and the entire universe. Brahman is a trinity, meaning the supreme one is broken down into 3 sections:>Brahman is the creator >Vishnu is the preserver>Shiva is the destroyerThis is essentially the law of the universe.Your life abides by the trinity of Brahman.Also, the next time you see someone you love, say "What's up Brahman". Don't worry, you won't seem weird, because everyone says Brah these days. But deep down you'll know everyone is Brahman, because Brahman is experiencing everything all at once.
