That's our Marblehead! No black magic nonsense for you! (Besides, if black magic really worked, the President would have choked on a pretzel by now).

Boob muscles? I think you mean ligaments, and yes, you should wear a sports bra. The face should be alright with rebounding.

I'm in the hole shooting my pellet gun at the Rule of Anarchy! BTW, I couldn't make it through the whole video.

You just taunted him with the Freddy Kreuger bit. And the purpose of your post is to try and get him to buy into it more, duh. You know Wang is unlikely to help out. You are being such a friend, here The more you post, the worse you look. Don't you have any other forums to hang out on? Alright, I'm done with this thread and the whole MPG scam thing. Enough already. Mo Pie Guy, my advice is to stop airing all your laundry here. Move on, man. It doesn't serve your purposes.

Ah, more 'helpful advice' from a stellar TaoBum member. You already "bought into it" by offering your earlier "advice" regarding a novice, remember? You were being "realistic" (see above TTB's post). Well, which is it, realistic black magic or Freddy Kreuger? And now you're making fun of him? Sounds like he nailed you correctly, chum. You don't come across as legit in any way.

Well, for what it's worth, I believe Mo Pai Guy's suspicions about you are correct, and you just popped in on his thread here to intimidate him in the guise of offering helpful "advice".

Thanks for your input, it's really helpful.

Ooh, nice try at a mind f*ck, TheTaoBum. Don't listen to him More Pie, he's full of shit. Jeez, I think your suspicions about this guy are correct, but if he's so powerful, why is he ripping people off for small change? He's a small time rip-off loser, don't worry about his "black magic"

Nice! Many thanks!

Again, more confirmation of a low level path attracting, well, you know... More Pie, really, this is how you're going to escape rebirth, with 'Chinese Black Magic'? Seems as though one would only build up more karma on this path.

Works for anarchists, but not so well for everybody else

Done! Here ya go...!

I'm still skeptical of the guy. I'll go take the test. But just saying that there is no dysfunction, it's all a misunderstanding is wrong. I worked an inner-city ER for 18 years, and lemme tell ya, mental illness and dysfunction is no illusion. But sure, encourage those with challenges to overcome them. I just suspect this guy, that's all. I find the whole point of it off-putting. And the haranguing tone: ALL the establishment is wrong, and only rebels are right. That "test" is also total bullshit ("ooh, I'm a rebel, a nonconformist, anti-establishment dude") the whole thing is just self-promotion for Mr La Porta. There is nothing there if you take his thing apart. Unless you're into total anarchy, we need some sort of 'establishment'. And it looks like the drivers in Venezuela do have rules, they just came up with their own. Yes, they did, otherwise there would be a collision at every intersection.

Yeah, talk about senseless violence...

I dunno, it's mixed, I watched it again and don't understand what he's talking about fully...singing the praises of the dysfunctional? I like the spirit of it, but maybe I don't get it. From the Video above: "Your mood swings reflect the natural pulse of life...they give you unstoppable energy when you're high, deep soulful insight when you're low"...maybe true, as many bipolars have been famous people, but they often leave much wreckage behind... "and diagnosed with a disorder? That's society's own way to deny it's own illness by pointing the finger at you"...yeah, perhaps sometimes, but there really are effed up people out there too, with body dysmorphic disorder, alzheimer's dementia, depressive disorder... are they just misunderstandings od creative genius? "Your addictive personality is just a symptom of your vast underused capacity for heroic creative expression and spiritual connection"... That's all addiction is? Jeez, who knew? I dunno, this is all over the place...I understand the desire to motive people, but what is he saying? "We are all the same you know, because we are all attracted to the flame" Yes, in theory...

Yes!!!

Requiem for a Dream. Holy f*ck. Try it, you'll see. Darren Aronofsky. Haunting and intense film about addiction. Amazing soundtrack, too. Jacob's Ladder. A movie about the Bardo, where the main character played by Timothy Robbins doesn't know if he is dead or not. I have a couple more, which I'll post later. Great topic, Blasto.

I don't quite know how I feel about this. Inspired words, some of it bullshit: "Your distractibility is an artifact of your inspired creativity". Um, no it's not. "You cant stand rules because in your heart, you know there's a better way". Yeah, but we need rules to function. Rules are necessary, they just have to be correct. I have to sit with this. Part of the problem is that most of the 90% of asleep people he refers to who view this video will lump themselves in as a Wayseer. Everybody sees themselves as 'the rebel'. It seems as though he is out to press a very specific button, and I feel manipulated by this video, so I don't buy into it. Darn clever wordsmithing, though. I like this guy better:

Are you referring to a book here, Steve F?

Well, don't ever try any serious psychedelics, if that freaked you out. Back in the day when I was intensely curious about consciousness brought about by psychedelics, I had a friend who would eyeball/guestimate dosages of some insanely powerful rare psychedelics and overdosed us several times. I remember lying naked, unable to drag myself anywhere or even put clothes on, experiencing a realm of hell in the middle of a path in Zion National Park. Thanks God nobody came along. It was a moment to moment trying to hold on to sanity for hours and hours and hours...afterwards I felt strengthened that I had endured and emerged perhaps stronger. But many of us have the same motivation as you.

Reading this now. Will follow with my thoughts and impressions.

I will tell you the correct answer according to the most learned Taoist sages, for me to provide the answer however, will cost you $200.

:lol:
