  1. The Mysterious Origins of Man

    I am enjoying these documentaries, as well as thinking of what the origins of mankind could be. Fascinating topic. When I see Charlton Heston I think of Moses! Yes, genetic engineering was more of a hobby for them.
  2. Tough celibacy question

    Injaculating methods don't conserve jing at all.
  3. No, I was not able to keep those things. "Moving forward", taking positive action, letting go. Also, finding little things to say "this is worth living for"...such as the fresh breeze, a cup of good tea, even something as simple as the color orange. If you can find a bit of relief in those types of things, then it can be easier to wait it out.
  4. It didn't say that. I'm curious to find out what happens after the 7th day...
  5. Really interesting. Coincides with my subjective experience exactly.
  6. How Siddhis bring about Enlightenment

    According to the Unwritten Universal Rulebook for Enlightened Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, rule 539 states that "you cannot appreciate girls pooping if you are to be considered an enlightened one". Epic enlightenment fail! This is a big secret to the attainment of rainbow body.
  7. How Siddhis bring about Enlightenment

    I don't see how being turned off by a girl pooping has anything to do with enlightenment.

  9. Still the sickest music, in any decade

    Maybe you can relate more to this, Marblehead?
  10. Still the sickest music, in any decade

    Well, part of what I meant by paying attention is finding out what goes into making this kind of music. It's hard to write lyrics, and it's also hard to make them sound good. It's hard to produce beats and sample things in the first place, and then to make it sound good is even harder. Believe me, I've tried these things...it's much easier to write a song on guitar and sing. Another way of paying attention is seeing how not all of the lyrics are about the hard times these people are going through...sometimes there are really inspired words...sometimes dealing with a lot of diverse topics all in one song, which can be interesting to research. For instance, Wu Tang Clan's lyrics often deal with this philosophical/spiritual group called 5 percenters or The Nation of Gods and Earths (in addition to others things). Most people don't know about these ideas, and when they listen all they hear is "muthafucka" and "murda" etc. So exploring that deeply into the lyrics is one example of paying attention. Not a big deal if people don't care to. I'm just saying...there are diverse and interesting ideas within hip hop, and more to it than what's apparent at first glance (like all things in life).

    I'm glad you weren't a POW, Marblehead. Just sharing things I like...although it's sorta funny to me if it tortures you. I think it's possible for a person to learn to appreciate any kind of music (especially if they are paying close enough attention to it)...it's about growth and expanding what is enjoyable to us. But it's all good for you to only like what you like.

  14. Red Pheonix and Ba Gua

    Nice.
  15. most advanced,highest neigong system or study ?

    I think virtue is the highest method, and the highest accomplishment is the ability to finally let go...of everything.
  16. Chakras in Tao, Buddhism, Khemetics, Yoga

    Great way to make money, and it's the majority of Egyptian stuff out there.
  17. Sifu Chris Matsuo

    Never compare internal training to street fighting...it's an entirely different thing. There are more purposes to internal training than simply destroying someone's face in a brawl!
  18. Don't doubt! Always wish someone well, because it can always make a HUGE difference.
  19. Red Pheonix and Ba Gua

    It would be enjoyable to understand what you guys are talking about.
  20. FIRE!

    The right palm is related to the heart. Could be releasing excess heat...
  21. A bit more about awareness

    True...just a joke. Anyway, did you know that in the first video, the second crash where the car flips onto the pedestrian....that pedestrian survived unscathed!
  22. A bit more about awareness

    That's how the immortals drive.
