  1. Who is Loneman Pai?

    There was/is another member, Zoom, who has changed his name numerous times. Since you are new to the boards I assume remaining in good standing is of some importance. It is with this in mind I encourage you to read the insult policy, the founding principles as well as the terms and rules. All can be found here.
  2. A Question About Sugar...

    I'm not sure I fully understand your question, but I'll take a stab at it.. Refined sugar is likely want the film was referring to. Fruits and vegetables are not considered "sugar" they are complex carbohydrates. Fiber offsets carbs (simple and complex) because it slows digestion to allow sugar to be released into the blood stream over time, but after digestion sugar that is not used to fuel the body will be stored in fat cells. It is my take that fiber only affects natural sugars and not refined. It has to do with how they are broken down by the body. Hope that helps.
  3. Indigo children - fact or load of crap?

    I think you pretty much answered your own questions. I believe most of us have many of the qualities/traits ascribed to the indigo. According to a test I just took I am one too.
  4. Living in the Now, vs. Dementia

    I concur. Thank you, Barbara.
  5. Personality Traits.

    Metta or bodhicitta meditation. Volunteer work has been known to cultivate compassion too.
  6. Might want to do a little research. He's been part of his lineage since he was 8 and recognized as the successor at 16. He is now in his late 50s.
  7. This symbol have any meaning?

    Oh, sorry about that. Life got in the way. It's like mentioned above, there is probably some construction in the area. Red indicates electrical and orange points to telecommunications being underground, so it's likely one or the other.
  8. please delete

    There are people here who care about you and consider you to be their friend. If you do not want to share publicly, reach out privately or talk to someone in your daily life. Keeping everything all bottled up is sometimes not a good thing. You are in my thoughts.
  9. This symbol have any meaning?

    What color are the markings?
  10. Pornography, Energy Loss, Social Discourse

    It is public information and easily searchable on whois.
  11. Climate Change

    You can try to politicize the facts and bring Trump into the equation all you want, but that doesn't change that if the FS had cleared underbrush the fires would not have spread like they did.
  12. Climate Change

    It's already been established that California's wildfires last year were result of the forest service in CA not doing their job.
  13. Cognitive moderate are the real heroes

    I have moved it to off grid. I am going to have to put together something that outlines what topics go where even though every forum and sub-forum has a description that clearly states it already.
  14. Who is Loneman Pai?

    He is a member here. Send him a PM and ask him.
  15. The best antidepressant

    Was it a prescription drug or a type of food? One of the first Rx antidepressants was isoniazid, an antibiotic used to treat tuberculosis.
  16. Very well, but when you're stuck feeling something different than what someone else described and wondering what you're doing "wrong" because Joe Blow on the intenet felt... Don't say you weren't warned against it. Best wishes.
  17. Allow for your own experience to unfold naturally. Comparing experiences and having expections based on others can be a huge pitfall and can hold you back from natural progression.
  18. A tornado hit my neighborhood

    Whew! So glad the damage is material and you were not harmed.
  19. Epic Food Appreciation/Outdoor Cooking Masters

    I happened upon Grandpa Kitchen on YouTube. I have adapted some of his recipes for a family of 4 rather than the masses he cooks for and they are delicious. This is our favorite... Ghee!
  20. https://youtu.be/cQcd41RO25k Odd YouTube will not allow this video of Obama admitting he was not born in Hawaii or in the United States of America to be embedded.
  21. Pornography, Energy Loss, Social Discourse

    Why is what other people are doing sexually any of anyone's business but theirs and their partner(s)? Interesting concept, the loss of energy leading to ignorance or lack of intelligence and social discourse. I'd say the only lack of intelligence and social discourse would be on the part of the person who takes issue with others being sexually active.
  22. ... by taking action against a pharmaceutical distributor and it's corrupt executives. From the article First major drug distribution company, former executives, criminally charged in opioid crisis
