  1. What are you listening to?

    ... I just listened to that song again and watched the video I linked. Great stuff. Good old Freddie MERCURY. One vision, see. A vision, revelation. Sight. Eye. Aye, aye. Cap'n. Back to planetrock.com. ps you know I can control my molecular density at will, right? Although I'm a long way off levitating... ha ha ha ...

    ... Rock n roll, man. ...
  4. Is Goetia now 'popular' ?

    ... What's he got against dharma protectors? Hmm? Only jokin'! You funny man mr Zhongyongdaoist sir. Very funny indeed. All subjects one subject! I do hope you get back to it. I have no idea what Goetia is. I don't do ritual magic, exactly. Well, insofar as I do, I make it up as I go along. And the only entit(ies) I seek to summon are helpful wise spirits of the past. And my own spirit from the future. They help me willingly, and came to me largely unbidden. On edit, some of this sounds rather appealing actually, done for the benefit of all sentient beings, naturally; ...
  5. Normalcy is over-rated? what do you do?

    ... I dig a pony. I was having a conversation with my aunt the other day about how I loved soft toys more than my children did. Although I was mean to my cat toy, swinging it by its tail and thumping my brother with it, imagining it was Thor's hammer. Later I would worry it would come alive in the night, perhaps seek some sort of revenge... shudder Back on topic. Ha ha ha. Great topic. Those pony clips are amazing. Kinda triggerin'! Dark crystal? Makes me want to watch the entire episodes. But now I know. If such evil ponies exist.... Then surely the Sith Lords are real. ...

    ... I believe your experience may be somewhat relevant to oh a great many things on edit. I give you my strongest blessings my friend. ...
  7. What did meditation do to me? Please read...

    ... Learning to breathe is learning to calm down. Calm down! Yeah, I'm figurin' the "old you" will largely return in time, perhaps changed for the better. Be patient and take good care of yourself physically. Try not to be frightened or even concerned by thoughts that arise. ...
  8. If you had superpowers what would you do differently?

    ... How nice it would have been to walk alongside the peace pilgrim awhile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peace_Pilgrim I occasionally considered such a life. But sadly, I am not so free as the pilgrim. This old man's powers are weak. ...
  9. What are you listening to?

    ... Not bad, Mark. Rock n roll stars got good chi. Never a big fan of the Stones, though. I ain't no man of wealth and taste. I turned planetrock.com off to listen to that, 'cos I like to rock n roll. So now I got to choose a track here for da cosmic juKeboX. I think I'll just put the radio back on, let it choose. Here you go. ...
  10. I don't want to point the finger (for I am too to blame)

    ... Good luck with yer trials, man. The spotless feller gives good advice. Always remember compassion and loving kindness for all beings. Given that, you probably oughtn't to be making blanket condemnations such as "fucking idiots." Although of course, the world is full of fucking idiots. And non-fucking idiots. But don't worry, I ain't prayin' for you. Except insofar as I pray for the soul of humanity. All things are bound together, mr unseen abiliities. ...

  15. Normalcy is over-rated? what do you do?

    ... I never wanted to be a wizard. On the subject of normalcy. I once said to my father in law (aka "I'm so straight I'm a weirdo"), "I reserve the right to be a little eccentric." To which he responded, going red and spluttering saliva unpleasantly in my direction; "A little?! You're more than a little!" In all fairness, he may have had a point. ...

  20. Trepanning, also known as Trephination

    ... For goodness sake, don't you know I'm squeamish! Ugh trepanning, who cares if it works. There's gotta be easier ways. On the other hand, I guess drilling a quick hole is about as easy as it comes.. ...

    ... Ain't the mind wonderful. I read R D Laing when I was about 16. The book had found its way into my mother's hands when she was studying psychology as one of her advanced nursing courses. ps don't mention cuckoos. ...
  25. Theory: proof of chi is in the electrical pulses of the brain

    ... Penrose is one of the smartest men of his generation. He might be even smarter than me! But I prefer to think that consciousness creates micro tubules, rather than micro tubules create consciousness. But then, it probably depends on what you mean by consciousness. Some might prefer to say the two are connected and reciprocal, which may be in true in middle earth. Perhaps the world is created by the worldly consciousness, and the worldly consciousness is in turn created by the world. Clear as mud. No matter. But I think many folk (no-one here, of course, you're far too clever for that) reflexively adopt a materialist reductionist paradigm without even thinking about it. ...
