Yes it can , when balanced. But I am not too good at it . I have probably only felt pride about twice in my life . Actually, if one can manage this and balance it and lift it to its highest potential , it is healing and gives meaning and reason to life and the reasons for 'taking this (your own ) incarnation ' . But you have to find your 'great work ' , what you came here to learn , offer and express, and then , do that well , then one also gets a sense of accomplishment and the reasons for 'being here' are clearer . This makes us whole, integrated and purposeful . And getting back to this and these principles are at the core of a lot of rehabilitation programs for indigenous individuals and groups and helping with their recovery and decreasing suicide rates . A proud person rarely commits suicide . people here are gong from being ashamed of being black to being proud of it ...... YES ! Its a little different for the white westerners though ... what 'culture' are they going to get back into and 'find themselves' and feel pride in ? Many are feeling just as lost , purposeless , outside of society , feeling not accepted , homeless and struggling .... This came to a head 2 days ago in my small local country town ; I was driving into town to dump at the recycling centre , on approach a large column of black nasty smoke . That doesnt look right , its coming from the middle of town on the north side of the river . maybe I should go and check it out ? But it felt .... 'wrong' - nasty . It isnt a burn off or a yard fire ... something nasty is burning . The the smoke started going white ... steam , its being extinguished . I am glad I didnt go to look , apparently a homeless guy that had been living in a caravan at the caravan park , set fire to his caravan and then hung himself in the tree next to it . people rushed to the fire to help, not knowing , including a bunch of school kids at the hall next door .... only to see a burning caravan with a burning body hanging from a tree next to it . Its gonna have a mammoth impact on the town ... a friend of mine who does grief and trauma counselling says she is going to e busy for weeks after this one .

( Quickly rushing to reply before he edits out his post .... ) Which one is number 3 ? ( We better get that clear before I say why , or I could be in BIG trouble . ) Which one do you think is my 'paramour' ?

Well, our 'Lovefest' isnt that far away ; long weekend in October . Now that weekend can flood here , but this year, looks dry . But I remember 'mud festivals ' , our east border (of the property and the riverside festival site has low bridge , first to go under in the valley , so the potential for a lot of people to get stranded. But nothing like BM ! ( which is why I would NEVER go to anything like that * . ) IMO BM is OtT! Its only a matter of time before it generates a 'human disaster zone' - if this isnt already one . I dont mind a group naked mud dance ( well, in the past ) , but after a week of that ..... urgggh ! Along with the incessant drum 'rhythm' . * a few years back some group used our site for 'Australia's first Burning Man festival' ... what a horrible disaster - never again ! https://www.lovefestaustralia.com/bellingen ( I was talking to the Lovefest organiser a few days ago as he toured the site ... he asked what I thought about the 'Burning Man' event that was held here . Me : aside from the 'free alcohol' tent - with no age restriction or ID checks , and the horrible mess they left behind ... well, I been to a few festivals and out there events in my time ... yeah, you might see ONE big fat hairy bearded guy .... in a full wedding dress ..... but 4 of them ???? Is that 'a thing' now ? )

I dont normally answer questions like this ; its a black hole of no return ... but lets zoom close for a look ; remote signal , still 3G and partial ... even town drops out 30.km away and has numerous surrounding towers and their eftpos and other internet related stuff drops out , I mean, it all used to work super fine and efficient , until they made things 'better' . At the same time , a continual request to download 'upgrades ' ( or is it upload down grades ? ) .... I am still hitting the no button , I lost 2 computers that way .... one I kept saying no ... it eventually did it anyway , used up my credit and then that lap top would not work after that . Got a new one , so much crap was associated with just turning it on to the internet ; news feeds , 'do you want to do this , do that , share this here or there .... so overloaded with crap that it could not work on a 3G signal . So computer guy , reloaded Ubuntu that doesnt have that ... BUT in doing that .... you dont really want me to go on do you ? Its a bowl of black spaghetti ! My phone ? does weird shit . of course these modern young people think I am an idiot " Look, show me your phone, I will show you how that works (or even the phone repair place ) , or how you do or use a certain function." They mess around with it for 5 minutes , look surprised and then inform ME " "Oh .... it shouldnt be doing that ! " DUDE ! Thats what I am saying in the first place ! and then they hand it back and whatever they did has caused more problems . So I tell em to F off you dont understand and they are left thinking I am a cranky old confused dude that cant work modern technology . YET at times , I can explain a function or do something they had no idea about ... sigh .... welcome to 'Nungaliville' .- 568 replies

Well put ! If this is not part of Buddhist philosophy , from where does it arise . I have heard it is part of 'higher' Vedanta , but do not know Vedanta well enough to know if or where it came from within it . That is why some attributed Buddhism to Binah on the Tree of Life ( one of its terms is 'sorrow' ) and 'higher Hinduism' to Chokmah . It is certainly part of the Thelemic understanding though .- 568 replies

Null is just a mathematical matrix where all elements are actually 0 ... so you are splitting hairs here .

Nungali replied to galen_burnett's topic in General Discussion
? Why do you claim the center of a black hole has such absence ? and IF that was the case , would not such an absence of anything ( and here ; particularly in the center of a black hole ) be more representative of the 0 before the 1 manifested ( the Dao manifested before 'the one ' ). If we are going down a cosmological path here and going to use modern physics , Id suggest the opposite ; not a black hole but the 'white point' that is ; that moment of singularity before the 'big bang' . Or even in the concept of 'gravitational singularity . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_singularity- 568 replies
