From my perspective all such concepts are socio-culturally based . Even if projected out into 'universals' . There are some fundamental human archetypes that all humans recognise, regardless of culture, but this does not seem to include concepts of what is good or bad . The inverted triangle is also culturally variable ; the 3 bodies of Buddahood ; elementally and alchemically ; water , a Nazi prisoner , ' a map of Tassie ' , denotes the vector of partial derivatives , etc . Proper 'Universal' symbols are human archetypes - ie, a symbol that can be recognised by a human from any time, location or culture

Do too !

" occasionally I read to see if there is worthy argumentation constructive " If you didnt know what I meant about that , I doubt you have the capacity to understand what people here are writing . Jesus saviour stuff is probably the better option for you .

Nope ... never to busy for a bit of fluff

Aha ! NOW I understand what happened to you .

Well then , thank you for the time and attention you yourself chose to give and also thnk you for the time and attention you gave in informing us that it is best that you do not give time and attention here . yes, by now the fire would be out and the tank empty ... you better go attend to it right now . Just wanted to insert here that my idea of heart and mind is based on my own understandings . I think we all know someone like that . Thats probably a good idea !

I hope many a 'dog pile' graces your front lawn

Shopping .... sure mate ! ( probably going down town and blow the lot on catnip ! )

Because of all his 'spiritual bullshit' ..... you must owe him a HEAP of $$$ s by now ! (Dude cant even remember what he himself wrote )

Or maybe take some online lessons in sentence construction, punctuation and grammar ?

I can outstare him any day ! Try me First to blink has to pay the other $50 .

Instead of hiding behind innuendo ... try to develop the courage to cough up and say what is actually bugging you .

Within the context that I was writing, the relativity of good or evil forces are mostly socio-cultural , thats why specific traditions count . I dont know about this 'energy coming down through filters and creating good and evil . Yes, someone working above their level may have been generated by the concept of " the idealistic and "dangerous" state of the unqualified assuming everything is ok because energy is ultimately pure " ... or they assume they are balanced or expert or whatever else .

People on Aussie coronavirus vaccine test positive for HIV ? Urrrgh !

Its going to depend on your tradition which approach you take . Still there comes a time / level / 'realisation' that recognises an essential 'same human pattern ' . I promise not to go off on one of my anthropological raves except to say this isn't just book learning but also real life experience observation and includes things as 'far apart' as ancient Australian indigenous shamanism and modern ritual magick ... so I will just summarise results ; At first as one 'progresses along their path ' it appears, and it is helpful to assume' , that there are dark forces that you will need protection against ( and a valid system should provide or teach about that protection ) . Methods vary from banishing rituals , purifications, prayers, charms , etc . After a time one deals with these forces by 'balancing opposites ' - but you are really working on balancing the forces within yourself. Once that is done you can learn about 'projection' and 'containment ' . Next you can balance , neutralise , 'return to the Dao ' various forces. Then any forces can be taken inside yourself and balanced . Further , you come to the realisation that it is all relative and there are no good and bad forces . After that you should be able to discern better about that 'relativeness' of 'good and bad forces' and using evocative principles be able to 'examine' things better and respond appropriately with any of the above . That is , although you might have achieved unity in realisation , you might decide to kick arse or banish anyway , due to circumstances BUT if one has not achieved the higher levels don't jump to a higher mode of working - dangerous . That is , you can work down from your level but don't work above it . And yeah , some nasties might ju-ju you ..... you never know , or you might have 'picked something up ' .

Its fairly short .

Remember this one folks ? Go ask Alice

This is a good one ... for the far out and 'spurious'

you guys can buy it legally ? Wow . Dont do this ; take 1st dose .... wait .... nothing . so take 2nd dose .... wait .... still nothing . take third dose ... wait ......... 1st dose starts coming on. Of dear ! Cookies ; someone made some and gave them out at a film night at the little cinema in town. I had a half and WHOA ! . At intermission, there where people outside draped over bushes and car bonnets, lying on car roofs holding lamp posts . Turns out the girl that made them didnt use left over leaf but the prime buds ! And some people had 3 of them !

Hmmm . I dont think you have been a breatharian , so I assume the edible relates to the thread topic . Lets see .... posted 7 hours ago , you probably crashed by now , so be waking up not long ago before reading this . here you go ; 1. 2. 3. And mushrooms for breakfast .

Just curious ...... how does a young lady like you know so much about Freemasonry ? - you haven't been 'eavesdropping' have you ? Or even .... ?

I would expect a good Buddhist to exhibit kindness, consideration, help and assistance for anything suffering ; animals , plants , forests and even people effected by bad environmental degradation . I am confused by the responses . Perhaps i misunderstood the issue ? Is environmentalism supposed to be non spiritual now ? I also like action . I think we have enough people already meditating and chanting to help the environment .

I say yes too , for various reasons , one being that your intent can still have magical power into the future , even if you forgot about setting the intent in the first place . OR "Regular ' setting of intents can have magical power when done in a 'not meditative' state , eg. making a wish , doing it as a 'joke' , a casual request . But that takes some time to develop , or I should say , that takes some time to happen . For some it seems at least a partially inherited ability . It seems to depend on one's familiarity and good relationship with what ever 'medium of transference' you are using ; eg , 'spirits' , 'servitors' , ancestors , ' Gods' , etc . Yes, but you also can in other states that are not 'regular conscious' .
