Oh no ! Now I've had it ! I was going to say ; : I am glad he got over the ..... the .... ... the 'reason' he was given for his un-nomination years back but I could not remember it so I scanned way back through our PMs ... MY Goodness ... now THAT is a record of ... all sorts of bat shit craziness But I am sure he will now knuckle down and be serious .....

SALMON ( 1 ) . I got up this morning and decided to have salmon on toast for breakfast . Looking in the cupboard , there was no salmon. Looking in the tin, there was no bread . Looking at the clock, I realised I had slept in . It is way too late for breakfast anyway .

I got up this morning and decided to have salmon on toast for breakfast . But there wasn't any . Maybe I should write a poem instead?

Banish it ! See post 7 .

Sure , but what I mean is ..... well, I have a 'lady in the Moon' story that I made up and used to tell to little kids to send them off to sleep ; its calm , relaxing and 'hypnotic' not terrifying !

The possums are tucked into their box this morning , but they still awake . Maybe the Full Moon is keeping them up ?

Take it over there with two glasses

Ah ! I see . I ascribed the 'apparently' to the wrong part of the sentence .

Eh ? 'The Man IN the Moon ' ? The Moon Man ? or are we talking about the Moon landings ? The first , I cant see . From here I see the Moon Bunny https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_rabbit Many ascribe a female or Goddess energy to the Moon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chang'e https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lunar_deities The Moon Man - an aboriginal story .... supposedly a kids story ! " You kids , stop staring at the the Moon , go to sleep . The Moon man sees you staring at him he will get angry ! He will come down here and stomp around , HA HA HA ! * and smash you with his club , kill you ! And if you dont believe me, I will take you to a place where it happened and you can see the smashed bones , all still around on the ground ! So, go to sleep ! " * this part has a bit of added drama to it , it reminds me of the part in many stories like : " I will huff , and I will puff and I will BLOOOOOW your house down ! " The above seems a very strange story ; perhaps it is from interior ; sleeping under a wide expanse of stars under a bright Moon , kids might want to 'stay up late ' . here is a version I put on to the end of it " ...and smash you with his club , kill you ! And if you dont believe me, I will take you to a place where it happened and you can see the smashed bones , all still around on the ground ! So, go to sleep ! ... because me and your mother want to have nookie . "

If you want something .... ask for it .

WE do ? How so ?

It appears you have 'selective awareness' ... dont worry It IS transcendable .

here you go ;

Yes (and now the post breaking works again ) That ? You mean that Nungali chap that keeps posting on Daobums ? I have managed to set myself up so at least my environment is often conducive to the opposite . But will I be invaded again today by distractions ? " Begone warped reflections of myself that are a ripple in the continuum ! " ( Eg . Last night , XGF from years back turns up un announced . marvels at my little cabin abode (she used to live here , but I done a LOT of work on it since then and , to boot, just finished a tiresome 4 day clean out , de clutter , scrubbed and washed all the woodwork and then oiled it ( its all local woods , stone glass , old retro local cedar furniture etc . ) cleaned all the soft furnishings ,... so she was very impressed (but, is that alchohol I can smell on her breath ? ) sat back in one of the old retro lounge chairs and .... projectile vomited . yes, some people can be a 'distraction' . Anyway , time to go out side now , sun is up , spray some water around with the hose , and water my garden and plants / "Self" , feed the fish/"Self" and give the possom/"Self" a spoon of honey and a pat . I will get back to you after I have transcended transcendence and 'realize' " I " am also my XGF ( and 'her' projectile vomit as well, I suppose ) .

Maybe you can clear this one up for me , I thought it was definition but I see both types of "self" above are in inverted commas ; one appears to be 'phantom personal self', the other is 'separate self' . Thoughts arise but are not believed to be the self - yet nothing arises that is not self . I suppose somewhere in there the distinction lies in 'phantom personal' and 'separate ' ? or what ? Even if I juggle it ; nothing that arises in experience is separate from self . But thoughts that arise in experience are separate from self ? Even if they are thought to be self , which they are not , because everything is self ? I think i confused myself with my thoughts .

Duuude ! Dont tell me I am going to have to report you to the RSPCA about that 'seal incident ' !

'Daimonic Reality ' . Although I temper the veracity of reports more than Harpur does ... I see a human dynamic in there effecting reports and dont take a lot of it at face value - when investigated the stories sometimes dont match the facts of the reporting of the incident . That aside , there is certainly something other than that going on . EG ; the child abuse incidents in USA at one stage ; 1. A woman reports to police that strangers came to her place , claimed to be from child protective services and a report of abuse had come in . Ae your children here , bring them out we want to see them . She nearly did but then realised 'What the hell am I doing ?' . Who are they ? I have not even asked to see ID proof . The she realised she was either 'unthinking' or in some trance . She snapped out of it , demanded proof of ID . They got nervous acted strange and left . 2. More report of the same come in . Police are wondering now if its true , is a couple going around doing this ? 3. More reports , some at different locations at the same time . is it a gang ? 4. Ridiculous amounts of reports start flooding in . Impossible , its spreading like a wave . is this 'copycat reporting ' (like 'copycat crime ) . 5. Then at this stage , as sometimes happen , people start doing it . In this case only one person was ever apprehended . He admitted that he did copy what he read in the media reports , the really wierd part is he could not explain WHY he did that and seemed confused himself about his own behavior . 6 . POOF ! Then it all vanishes in a puff of smoke , no more reports , no more incidents , finished . Then the next one starts . Hauntings , UFOs , 'Men in Black' * .... all sorts of things can follow this pattern. * first stories , all over the place . Then people 'pretending ' . Then eventually a movie . peoeple go to the movie dressed up as men in black . Then a movement starts to counter this 'evil'; 'Men in White'. They aadvertise for members on the internet . A cult starts .... Poof ! Gone . ( but the movies continue ) .

One of the interesting aspects bought to focus by Harpur is the categorization of themes; nearly all cultures have some variety of the theme ; 'the big black dog , or hound ' , 'the lake monster' , 'the lady in the pool or lake' ' the strange area of forest or wilderness', ' the 'criptid' ' , etc .

Great ! Here is my view , modified by my personal philosophy and experience (and observation of others involved in this path ). Please excuse the 'simplistic expression' - that is deliberate , trying to be brief and simple . many people enter various practices with the aim or promise of transcending certain limits .... some 'impossible' . So why ? Every one has a limit of personal potentials . Due to various conditions we 'suffer' that is often masked or we think , are told or bind ourselves to a limitation . These practices are to help break through those imposed limitations. But the cannot move you beyond the limit of your potential . That is where a great 'miss' or problem can lie - to believe you can and keep trying to go beyond that limit * . So the problem is two fold ; not seeing one's potential , or seeing beyond it and trying to achieve it . Of course its different for different people , so some may have great success and some 'limited' success , but its still an advancement for that person . The other issue is using the wrong method for the particular person or situation . * One of my first lot of posts here highlighted that ... in a joking way . I posted that I was determined to learn to fly by flapping my arms , and I postulated that if I could get enough moment , it would be possible ; by jumping off a cliff , zooming down to build up speed and then commence flapping . I received all sorts of advice , including from Marblehead " Good luck with that son ." and someone , Well, with that method you will find success ... at least for a while , when you are 'flying down ' .

how can i resist

Ahhh ... one of my favourite subjects ! Medieval people , harassed by religionists of the time often depicted being uplifted by angels or interfered with by demons . Modern people harassed by science ( ) ; some report good or bad aliens ..... abducted and have weird things done to them . At one stage , aliens seemed very interested in our bottoms . ... as we still do Early account of Aboriginals observing a ship coming up the coast , exploring the 'new land ' . ' We saw clouds at at sea, moving along (sails ) under them was an upturned shell, like an island , it had some trees on it (masts ) then a water insect came out of it and walked across the water ( a long boat with oars ) it came up onto the beach and men got out of it ! ' You got it ! This book is a must for nutting this all out and guess what ? Surprise ! I have talked endlessly about it before (including to you ) ; to explain the connection ; In it Harpur about exactly this ; he writes about a little experiment ; someone takes the ghist of a story ; people are travelling through the forest , they come into an area that 'feels' different , it has an 'energy' and they feel charged or excited or 'prickly' ('goosebumps', hair 'standing on end ' ) a light appears in the sky and descends . It is like a glassy or watery sphere and a figure can vaguely be sen inside it . The strange feeling rises and then different things seem to happen to the different people witnessing . Later they 'come out of it ' and it seems for some there has been some 'lost' time or a time discrepancy . the description was shown to people from various cultures and they all knew what it was ' To be sure ... to be sure ... twas the fairy people again , they are always doing that . ' ' This was obviously another appearance of the Virgin Mary ' ' Typical manifestation of the Queen of the Witches , she is non-corporeal ' 'Classic UFO encounter of the third kind ! ' The people that the story originally came from where happy about thir expereince , they felt they had communication with their ancestors. review ; " First, the book revels in the phenomena and manifestations which fascinate children, mystics, dreamers and anoraked eccentrics, but which proper science and serious inquiry will not touch. We are invited to take seriously and think deeply about alien visitations and abductions, lake monsters, Bigfoot (or is it bigfeet?), grey ladies, faerie folk, lights in the sky, little people and a glorious cast of absolute weirdoes from out there or in here. Second, Harpur finds in all of this a profound insight into the nature of reality, and what it is to be human. That insight is unsettling and disturbing. ... Those encounters in our age are likely to be with alleged aliens, large or small, but bear uncanny resemblances to the age-old encounters with faerie folk, spirits, and other manifestations of different places and other times.... The standard response to all this is to argue either that it is all in us, in the form of persistent patterns of hallucination or madness; or the projection of archetypal patterns onto reality. Alternatively, the phenomena are taken seriously as being evidence of something really out there in the physical world, as aliens visiting the Earth, or prehistoric creatures living in deep cold lakes etc. Harpur pursues a different, and more challenging line. What is at stake, he suggests, is the nature of reality itself. With Jung, Harpur argues that these are phenomena of the psyche, but that psyche is of the world, not just of us as individuals. Indeed, our much cherished individual selves and psyches may be no more than embodiments of that world-soul (rediscovered in our age as the goddess Gaia). The phenomena in which the book rejoices may be appearances to us of its ancient inhabitants. They appear in different forms to match changing cultural expectations and concerns. An appearance of the Goddess becomes an appearance of the Blessed Virgin Mary, becomes a woman with golden hair emerging from her spacecraft. The mistake, he suggests, is to deny and repress these manifestations, since the repressed returns, pathologically and dangerously, if separated from a context of meaning and belief. Harpur suggests that a function of these daimonic forces may now be to undermine a deadening and narrow scientific orthodoxy and world-view - the 'single vision' which Blake so deplored." https://www.harpur.org/x1Daimonic.htm https://www.essentiafoundation.org/seeing-things-the-daimonic-nature-of-reality/reading/

Is the physical location suggested by you map / image above in Saudi Arabia, Tabuk ? If so , its an interesting area , a 'gateway' into (or out of ) ancient Egypt and " The region is rich in antiquities and archaeological sites such as petroglyphs, inscriptions, forts, palaces, walls, the Syrian-Egyptian pilgrimage route, ... Hundreds of localities with rock art and inscriptions dating to different chronological periods and ranging from the Paleolithic to the Islamic period were recorded at Wadi Dam and the region west of Tabuk. A study of the art revealed rich stylistic variability and both human and animal figures were represented in it. Numerous sites in the area with Thamudic, Greek and Nabataean inscriptions have been found. Tabuk Castle, known as the castle of Aṣ-ḥāb al-Aykah (Arabic: أَصْـحَـاب الْأَيْـكَـة, "Companions of the Wood"), is mentioned in the Quran.[4][5][6][7] The castle dates back to about 3500 BCE. " That is very early .... the pre-Dynastic period in Egypt . Associated myth ; Located in northwest Saudi, Tabuk boasts ancient archaeological sites and is the setting of the story of the prophet Moses, who lived nearby for a decade . Archaeology ; In Wadi Damm, northwest of Tabuk, this composition of idoliform and bovid representations constitutes an open-air temple in the middle of the desert. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Al-Disah+Saudi+Arabia/@27.6075267,36.3907304,18708m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x15aed278800b4f15:0x66abd5af2da11486!8m2!3d27.6021254!4d36.4310251!16s%2Fg%2F11btwq1976?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTIxMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Oh ... and also, if people haven't noticed , people be going off everywhere atm , not just here , all over the place .

Sometimes one has to give these types enough time to let all their 'petards' off so the required 'hoist' is of sufficient height . .

Nah . it will end up like the other threads you tried to bullshit your way through while pretending they where going somewhere and telling people the conclusion was coming .... and ? nada nothing zilch
