Mal

You know I had to take a deep breath and do some tumo to work up the courage to read this thread don't leave, No you are not harming the forum leaving will not help. Not everything is black or white

Me too because seriously try not to be offended but it really sounds like this to me too We are not saying we don't believe YOU, we just don't believe what you believe is correct. Everyone is trying surprisingly hard to be nice and help.... Anyhow your original question tried re-joining under other ID's: 1. Yin Hsi 2. Yin Hsi Yi 3. yin hsi yi 4. Cloudy Mountain, a name that I used write amazon.com reviews with. did not make sense to me (so I didn't reply) We can only login to TTB using email addresses and a password. To have 4 id's would you not need 4 different email addresses? (I can use my mal#2 account because I have 2 different email addresses) I can't help myself because I though of you, got to share this. Was using my computer yesterday and every time I clicked on my poker game in the start menu it would not load. Other programs I left clicked would run fine, just not that one. Had to re-boot. (1st choice in windoz trouble shooting then it worked fine. Just a glitch..... or was I hacked.

Adam wasn't being obstructive, it was clear and practical enough to me. An understanding of any system using elements, be it traditional Asian or western magic would clear things up. In these systems "elements" are not really explained as concepts or knowledge but experienced. So you can read about them if you like. I you want to understand them I'd recommend KAP or something similar... Hope that helps a bit.

Hi Virge, Welcome to the 'bums. Nice to meet you too. Hope you have fun here.

Where is our favorite witch these days?

greetings, Munzi.magick Welcome to the 'bums. merry meet

Yes, success from seed is very difficult, hardly worth the "risk" as it's very likely to get picked up on the way in without good packaging. Non-international mail is less scrutinized Safest bet. That may be true. Hope to meet her one day..... Cheers

well there are 3 (or 4) threads discussing the same issue so it's hard to keep track

With love, kindness and respect for others. Most religions are dogmatic ( ) I have a friendship with a Christian minister (we joke that we are the only people in the hospital that look happy) But his views are not flexible or open to debate. But I expect that from institutionalized religion. Hua Hu Ching One (truncated) I teach the Integral Way of uniting with the great and mysterious Tao. My teachings are simple; if you try to make a religion or science of them, they will elude you. Eighty-One (truncated) With all this talking, what has been said? The subtle truth can be pointed at with words, but it can't be contained by them.

It's hard to know how representative the stats above are, 30 responses vs ~100 reads for every MTS post. Although I feel 90% is possibly accurate enough as long term members are voicing opinions along those lines. Mmmmm this is an interesting case. Information that the majority want, but delivered in a way the majority find unacceptable. We always have our cyclic debate about the posts in Taoist Discussion, along the lines of There are too many threads on Topic X The behavior of poster Y is unacceptable #2 is easy, just ban the poster, or if it's personal just use ignore. 1 is difficult and ignore does not "solve" it and banning is not really appropriate. But. If you want good exposure you need to be in Taoist Discussion. And we do get some discussion in a few MTS threads, but the signal to noise ration is not good..... Have we grown so much that a forum split is needed or should we be more proactive posting in the "correct" place. Personal Practice or Contributed articles

Would love to but previous attempts did not get through customs Was a while ago but don't want to push my luck too often. Some suppliers have great "stealth" packaging but I've no success with spores prints. Would not even bother attempting to get syringes. Easy enough to make from the prints and prints have a slightly defensible legitimate purpose. and I've heard Salvia is a rather unique trip different from everything else out there. Personally from what I've read I feel it's safe. May not be "pleasant" but if I wanted that I could just use THC. Mescaline may be similar but much less plesent and, I think, less powerful. Cheers, already weighted up the pros and cons, just trying to get some safely

Don't think...feel Happy new year everyone

My fellow Aussie 'bums I have a question for you. In one of the Ford backyard cricket commercials. The one where Andrew Simon's said at the end "Right That's stumps" The very first shot of the house interior is there a cardboard Cat in the Microwave Oven ?

That's what I thought, very funny but a bit "tasteless" for mainstream. Also wondering if it's a prop or something you can buy Seen it several times now, I'm sure it's a 2d cardboard cutout of a cat, stuck in the door of the microwave, head outside body inside.

Bingo at least that seems to be a popular reaction. No I have not tried before, can't seem to get any leaves. I'm told it's very important to set up and prepare yourself properly. Worthwhile having an experienced user or if alone a straight sitter to keep an eye on you just in case. Not really interested in extracts for the reason mentioned above. Altiora, hope you plants go from strength to strength. I'm told it's quite tricky to grow and I don't have a green thumb This may be of interest http://www.stargeek.com/growing_salvia.php

Any and all suggestions welcome Those look quite pretty. I have some some painted sets, one I really like has cool yellow dragons But I prefer practicing with the unpainted ones.

Travel is the "common" solution but getting it "back" is my difficulty.

Yes, vs this isn't working, I'm going to try someone else..... low and behold after the sex/lust factor wears off again they are unhappy and moving on again...repeat repeat repeat.

Futile and too expensive

Actually I though the "trap" was the good part. Magic for power and control sounds cool (or scary) yet by the time you can do that sort of stuff, it doesn't seem important anymore

I just like to listen to them approaching. You can hear what everyone is up to with a bit of practice Wouldn't quote in the other post thanks for the offer, but no need to send them

18 yrs and no intercourse with partner this millennium If people feel bad for me I think they underestimate the value of having a best friend Sex is everywhere, friends are harder to find. And there is a lot of fun to be had without intercourse..... also it's only cheating if your not allowed too (I am VERY lucky ) Personally I use Cannabis. Would not have been able to stay in this relationship without it IMHO. It allows me to get past resentment over our sexual difficulties and appreciate the rest of our relationship, which is extremely good.

(not sure if I got 7. Syllables confuse my fingers attempt to count them ) Feral feminesque! Jing aroused, nostrils flaring wide, Great love for hairy 'pits.

and practice. It does not have to be a forceful contraction if done at the "right" time. As a practice try when you are aroused but not approaching orgasm. Lightly pump the enery up the spine, its physical at the beginning, it becomes more mental after practice. If it "works" you will notice a decrease in arousal. I also do that one during daily life if I have unexpected sexual energy It's much more difficult when close to orgasm or with a partner. Not so much because it's "more difficult" to do, I find mental its more difficult to "want" to do it. Other sensations occupying on the mind So getting the timing "wrong" may require a more forceful physical contraction. Like drew posted. I have had this method work with wrong timing and just past the point of no return) but it's very physical. Drew. A ? If it wasn't for feeling they are "perves" could you circulate energy male - male? While I have no desire for a physical relationship (we look funny naked ) I "Think" that you should be able to circulate energy, although it may feel different to male female. Unsure. A question from me. I find if I'm practicing standing up and contract very strongly I sometimes get a strong pressure sensation in the head, occasionally bordering on painful. Accompanied with reduction in vision, approaching blackout or sometimes full blackout and dizziness. It's quite euphoric but I worry how "painful" it actually is (you know how when aroused pain sensations get a bit confused) could be ramping up the blood pressure a lot.
