    Oh my you really dont know much about my world view nor do I about yours...ask me if I care your whole thing seems to be about dissing those you dont know... Dont get it....not good if you happen to do it in real life.
  3. Climate Change

  4. Climate Change

    I glanced at it. co2 levels are now reported at 411.97ppm by this site https://www.co2.earth/ https://e360.yale.edu/features/how-the-world-passed-a-carbon-threshold-400ppm-and-why-it-matters The problem is not climate change, its human population which when the climate is changed enough will tend to take care of itself.
  5. Climate Change

    Do you deny the earths climate has changed and goes through cycles. Its not about me being right or wrong. I mentioned the 70s as one data point among many as part of a discussion. The climate has changed The climate will change The climate is changing
  6. Climate Change

    Yes it is, which makes it so troubling for some looking at it with an obvious bias. Don't really care for right or wrong just what has been stated and covered does not seem to accord with my understanding of what's going on. More so since in the 70s as prediction of a glacial age coming didn't pan out. Or did it ? There are some suggesting that greenhouse gases have actually prevented what's going to happen anyway, from happening at an earlier date. That is, the earth will enter into another cooling cycle as has been documented by geologists and many other disciplines that study eraths history of climatic change.
  7. Climate Change

    Common ralis, Why is it you always have to condemn others. I mean really what's the point. Sure if it makes you feel better I thought the movie was reality go for it. Always willing to help.

    Nice post. Well agreeing with most of what you've written I often wonder if it was any different in different times.
  14. Accepting futile situations?

    Sounds like somebody should be looking for a better job.
  15. It seems you using being "daosit" As some type of fixed way trying to find how somebody who is "daosit" reacts, to follow. One might start by understanding, why they consider it a dilemma. "The Tao that can be told of is not the eternal Tao; The name that can be named is not the eternal name. The Nameless is the origin of Heaven and Earth; The Named is the mother of all things."
  16. Your not alone, your not a secondhand entity. "If you do not follow somebody you feel very lonely. Be lonely then. Why are you frightened of being alone? Because you are faced with yourself as you are and you find that you are empty, dull, stupid, ugly, guilty and anxious - a petty, shoddy, secondhand entity. Face the fact; look at it, do not run away from it. The moment you run away fear begins." http://jiddu-krishnamurti.net/en/freedom-from-the-known/1968-00-00-jiddu-krishnamurti-freedom-from-the-known-chapter-1
  17. Movement Arts That Are Non-Martial

    Interesting. Things that directly address life and death tend to be great focus'ers on direct interaction with the practice. Often practiced and found by those whose practices require it, arriving at it formally through a practice, or informally through an activity. Some refer to it as the gateless, gate.
  18. Movement Arts That Are Non-Martial

    While true, there are specific ways walking that fit the op criteria. "Walking meditation, also known as kinhin, is the walking meditation that is practiced between long periods of the sitting meditation known as zazen. The practice is common in Zen, Chan Buddhism, Korean Seon and Vietnamese Thiį»n. Wikipedia"

    Had I not learned taiji, this is probably what I would have looked into this would be one.
  20. Assange arrest

    I wonder if he has information that would be released should what happened, did in fact happen. Considering he claims to have many things that are not published. He also claims that none of his information was passed to him by russians, would not reveal his sources. If one happened to be one of his sources in the US , seems like they should be concerned about now.... Should he be extradited to the US, his sources will become part of a deal for him.... not good for "unnamed sources" hopefully soon to be named
  21. On Meditation

    The japanese have many practices that embody this

    "But I donā€™t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked. "Oh, you canā€™t help that," said the Cat: "weā€™re all mad here. Iā€™m mad. Youā€™re mad." "How do you know Iā€™m mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldnā€™t have come here.ā€ ā€• Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
