In my opinion, you don't need the earthing gear, you just want to walk barefoot on the earth for 30 minutes per day. I don't think the contraptions do the same thing. (I own the sheet and the foot pad...no big deal to those).

That ain't right.

Israel Regardie's 'Middle Pillar'?

Oh, bullsh*t, that. Sez who? Give me your argument, not just an isolated quote. Make a case.

Hey, I thought we all promised not to let 'Ninpo-me-this' in on this thread...

One very, very powerful but often overlooked way of working with a teacher, guru or realized being is through photographs. One simply makes eye contact with the teacher during meditation, and tries to open, open, open to their energy. One teacher, Swami Rudrananda, or 'Rudi', taught in life with transmission through his presence and gaze. Below is a short video about working with photographs, followed by a link to photographs of Rudi as well as other high beings that one can work with very effectively. I encourage people to try working with a photograph into their daily practice.

'Autobiography of a Yogi' was my entrance into Eastern Spirituality , and has served as such for probably many thousands of people. This picture from the cover of that book was what really drew me in, and I have worked with this photograph in meditation in the way mentioned above.

Interesting. I don't think it would matter energetically, (?) perhaps it's an aesthetic thing rather than energetic?

I guess you won't be getting enlightened in this lifetime!

Kind of ironic how this thread has turned into one the most helpful threads ever, isn't it? Thanks to alwayson

I would prefer we keep the discussion on topic.

This makes no sense whatsoever. What will you do if you get an infection? Give more probiotics and sing 'Kumbaya'?

The antibiotics are probably being given as a precaution, if you're thinking of getting implants, then you should probably take them. There was a thread here a few months ago asking for people's advice and thoughts on implants.

:) Questioning nature.

PM'ed you.

Ssssssmmokin'!!!!!!!!

No soap, radio!

Wow, that's small. You shoulda splurged for the 1 gram model.

Mao Zedong a typographical poem Maoist, not Taoist.

Jeez, mid-nineties...mid-thirties...professional/graduate level...books? More than 500, but the whole family would go to the downtown Main Library in Tucson about every 2-3 weeks and we would each check out an armload of books and take em home and read and read. (My mother was a real reader and master wordsmith and a very bright woman--kinda TaoMeow-ish).

huh?

Dang!
