Captain Mar-Vell

... I shall simply say it is up to the Scots. I wish them the best of luck. Westminster or Alex Salmond. They'll need it. ...

... That all truths are deniable is an undeniable truth. ...

... Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! ...

... I see no insult, only perfect agreement. Call me eccentric. ...

... I think I've lost track of this thread. Sages likely work in the invisible realms, which some believe exist. Or something like that. I think this is the least productive contribution I have ever made to a thread. ...

... Yes, I'm fine. Crazy as ever, thank Heaven! My time in Tommy's Holiday Camp was a blast. ...

... whistles innocently ...

... You are reminding me how fond I was of this man. Your post is relevant to a lot of the taobums and modern materials with regard to "spiritual practices" generally. I just tried to be a moral person, sincere and aware, fond of philosophies of Mind, of Religion, Epistemology and Cosmology. Another dumb Seeker. "I don't need a credit card, I'm a seeker after truth!" "You will sonny, you will." Still ain't got one, ya big yin. I found things happening despite myself. Totally beyond strange. I can't take credit, you know that. It's just delusions of grandeur. ...

... Yes, thanks for the info CT. I have read that biologyofkundalini site before. I must say that page you link there is especially pertinent to me. I was diagnosed bipolar and am on mood stabilisers only, so really I am lucky to have stayed off the anti psychotics and anti depressants which I knew would have been inappropriate. I really have had to battle over the anti psychotics though. ...

... To be quite honest, I am being more than a little silly with the "wizard" thing. Those are such good questions, really. Having said that, I am not so sure "undergoing this transformation" hasn't/isn't sending me crazy. But the way its dealt with and treated can add several additional layers of trauma to the whole experience. No medical professional I spoke to had even heard of "kundalini." Or so they said. ...

... That sounds familiar in terms of my own experience, although I haven't suffered from too many uncomfortable symptoms since the first month or so after I had a powerful "kundalini awakening." Pretty scary stuff for me it was. Jumping off cliffs, yeah. Retain a sense of suicide. The fool and his agnososia. That's what turns you into a wizard. Freaks me out too, quite honestly. But I try to retain a simple faith that it is a natural "evolutionary" process. It is certainly a shame good advice is difficult to find, mostly the value is to be found in first hand accounts. Speaking for myself, I still have a tendency to overdo things. ...

... I actually rather like watching youtube stop frame animated videos featuring Marvel Legends action figures. Don't look at me like that, this is funny stuff! It made me laugh, anyway. Poor Hank! And disempowered Bobby is "even more unpopular than Cypher." Remember Dougie? ...

... I guess in all honesty I would sit here and sip my tea (not the kool aid!) and see what you lot had to say about it. Sad, really. ...

... Guru ratings! I rather like it. But then I do have a taste for the ridiculous. er, funniest er guru, er yeah, moving swiftly on... I'll really be at the bottom of the league but ya gotta start somewhere! ...

... Sri Ramana Maharshi takes his place amongst the great saints. I read his accounts, brief though they were, of his "awakening." Such descriptions are fascinating to me, since they so closely resemble my own experiences. I have read very many similar accounts over the years. They are not just myths and stories. Thank you for the link, I shall check it if I have time. ...

... Are empowerments what you get when you level up? People are always dissing my empowerment. It gets old, man. ...

... I'm a new age poser I guess. But a lot of spiritual people think religious or meditative or devotional activity can have a direct beneficial influence in the world, despite not being an immediately obvious physical causal factor. Along with self improvement, that is one of the motives of those who aspire to the spiritual life. Besides, being a sage is great. You can be as crazy as you like, and you don't have to really work for a living. And you might just get to live on discretely in some form after death to bring benefit to sentient and non sentient beings. Ya know, like a sparkly Jedi ghost. "If you cut me down..." ...

... Yeah, dey raggin' on poor old Zoomy. The Belgium mass flying triangle sighting totally authentic, of course. I am sure the vast multiple corroborating witness testimony would stand up in court. Probably stealth aircraft out for a jaunt to gauge public/media reaction. Maybe. As to ET. I know nuthin'. ...

... From; http://thetaobums.com/topic/22922-the-gospel-of-thomas/page-2#entry328824 I have no idea where those verses are from. Drink up dreamers. ...

... Olias helps me soar on wings of spirit. And don't call me cheesy, you mother fuckers. ...

... The guys had to split. We had a nice chat, a few other members stopped by. Anyway, I'm back lurking in the room. And I'm being terribly normal and well behaved. Honestly. ...

... Perhaps the universe would end in some sort of big crunch as theorised. But I don't think it's imminent. Having said that, I did find what Braden had to say of some interest. ...

... To me a religion is a way of looking at the world. Or even a variety of ways. But I shan't quibble over labels. ...

... What if we are always in the now? Oh, and I'm going the "heavenly changes" route! ...

... Me and Mystique have been enjoying our chats. The more the merrier though! ...
