  1. Levitation and possibly flight?

    moment replied to Goku76's topic in Daoist Discussion

    In some ways things seem to be lightening up. I am certainly glad to see it.

  2. Levitation and possibly flight?

    moment replied to Goku76's topic in Daoist Discussion

    I have had several out-of-body experiences, all memorable, all unpredictable (mostly) and I still only understand a small fraction of them. I find that lucid dreaming or half-wake condidions are the most productive. Though, I was getting a lot of it (lucid dream flying) after a certain type of Kriya (I will not name it because, it can be destabilizing if a proper foundation has not been laid). The layers of, underlying realities intertwined with, subconscious garbage and all that.

    If he meant it as comedy, it would be clever, if it is meant to be taken seriously; it is just boring. Anyone who bothers to actually be a positive force on TDB, knows you are good people, liminal.
  4. I believe that everyone, if possible, should do major grounding like this, several times a year.

  5. Everyone post some favorite quotes!

    If cold is the absence of heat, evil is the absence of good.--- anonymous, taoist, pain in the butt.

    Thank you Ralis, that was hilarious!

  10. What are you listening to?

    I love cultural cross-pollination, especially when it is done so well!

  11. Don't eat street food in China

    moment replied to MegaMind's topic in General Discussion

    "Bottom line is pretty much every single thing we eat is messed with in some way shape or form and is nowhere near the quality of what it used to be around 50 years ago due to the way modern agriculture works and how everything is driven by the bottom line but seeing as we've got a forum full of holier than thou, know it all bellybutton gazers slash spiritual savants its nice someone comes through and kicks them in the arse every now and then." First of all you tell me to accept that things are much worse than 50 years ago! Not where I get my food! Maybe you accept that. A community of farmers you know is the only way to go! Then you go on to talk about holier than thou, this and that! What the hell do you think you are doing?

    Damn! That is good! How do you find this stuff?! This is better than 98+% of the rock being done in the USA right now!

    I post this because it is good, it is a classic, because Israel iz was a great guy and it takes real balls to take a Judy Garland standard and go with it. Unfortunately his only great weakness was his weight. He died young at 757 pounds (343kg).

  14. Don't eat street food in China

    http://www.crdt.org.kh/2013/09/mekong-river-pollution/ I sure as hell would not eat anything out of that river unless I was starving! Which I might add, is a damn shame! Because fishing for their monster Catfish would be cool! But, I will not fish for what I won't eat.
  15. Chris Henchy is not my type!?? But, I agree with you on the rest.
  16. I have to admit, a few of you do help to slow down my aging progress. Thank you, virtue!
  17. REASONS MEN CAN'T GET A GIRLFRIEND too picky Quitters never win live in parents basement Hygiene issues too needy a complainer LET INSECURITIES GET IN THE WAY Expecting the women to make the first move Making the move too early because, not paying enough attention to her cues Not being relaxed enough, not slovenly, but relaxed, relaxed style, develop it (Tai Chi can be helpful) Need to develop a positive sense of humour (anyone can learn it and women love it). Need to learn how to dance (from a professional)
  18. Edie Sedgewick(top) married Michael Post (bottom) when she was a millionaire and top model. He was dirt poor(completely broke at the time).
  19. Yet, they will wallow in their resentment instead of doing the work needed.
  20. Two out of three of those women are as rich or richer than their husbands(and were much wealthier than their men before they married them ).
  21. Author Salman Rushdie was married to model and "Top Chef" host Padma Lakshmi from 2004 to 2007. The Cars frontman Ric Ocasek has been married to supermodel Paulína Pořízková since 1989. They have two sons together. About a year ago they did announce a split though. Writer Chris Henchy has been married to model and actress Brooke Shields since 2001. They have two children together.
  22. "Today I'm considering the simplicity of a (pop)culturally ignorant life." It is blissful! Then when the grandkids come over and educate me in their ways, it is surprising and fun ( we laugh about it).

  23. The Human Spirit, Rowing Across the Atlantic

    moment replied to thelerner's topic in General Discussion

    I remember the awe I felt the first time I read about this account. The will, required to do that, has been an inspiration of mine for a long time. Thank you for reminding me.
  24. There is a powerful energy vortex over here in Port Townsend, Washington. I can feel the difference, especially while doing meditations. I am interested in TD bummers' experience with this kind of phenomena.
  25. "Eventually, the goal is that we learn to recognize and abide as the underlying awareness, which ultimately is the only reality, upon which all other experiential realities are dependent. This is evident as the pure awareness underlying our daily experience of waking, dreaming and deep sleep."-- Much to think about there!
