  1. my first hello to you

    https://www.amazon.com/Jade-Writing-Yellow-Court-Classic/dp/1456481657/ This version includes all of the Chinese characters. The translation (English) is questionable at best, but sounds like you want to translate it yourself.

    There is true tolerance, and there is self righteous and self congratulatory tolerance. True tolerance can have a dialogue with people it disagrees with, and agrees to disagree...it can admit when a certain group is a destructive force in society (Islamists). The false tolerance allows no room for opinions other than its own...labels outside opinions, so as to demonize the people with them in order to feel better about itself...ends up fighting those people with the violence it claims that it stands against...and turns a blind eye to the destructive aspects of what they perceive as minorities that need their help. For instance, allowing all Syrian refugees into their country, despite the fact that in Europe this has led to violence and everyone knows that terrorists have infiltrated the refugee groups. We call it "bleeding heart" syndrome...a heart's not supposed to be bleeding out. If it does that, it's a sign that the heart will soon die because of its own pumping. So this type of thinking is self destructive and society destructive. There is true compassion and false compassion...the false does what it perceives as good in order to feel self righteous. The perception is off in the first place, so perhaps it also makes mistakes in understanding what's good and what's bad. The true compassion does it for others. For instance, defending your own country against terrorists who try to enter and kill innocent people is true compassion. False is protesting so that anyone can enter (which is currently the case due to the appeals court), for the sake of thinking you were on the good side, despite it opening up a risk to other people's lives. In this light...I think we can say it's a win win for liberals to have their own country, where they can run things the way they want to, and others can be free of that. Of course, it's probably not going to happen, and we'll continue to have the binary American politics.

    If California exits, NYC should as well. Let's free up the popular vote.
  4. Study of Logic

    VII edit...life has been moving in fast forward, took the week off from posting these videos
  5. Is anyone practicing Bajiquan?

    I love how it looks when performed well. Practiced a bit of its basic training on my own a number of years ago, but it didn't blend well with how I was cultivating.
  6. Boozhoo! Hello!

    Nope just took a course on the language.
  7. Boozhoo! Hello!

    Aanii
  8. Standing Rock

    Rumor has it that Trump wants to move the pipeline away from that contested land. Of course, we'll see what actually happens.
  9. Inauguration Events

    Can you share a link? I've heard bad things about O'Keefe, but at the same time, I've only seen footage he delivered that was unquestionable.
  10. Inauguration Events

    Nothing serious happened. There was organized flag burning, window crashing, brick throwing, etc, but not something I'd consider to the point of serious terrorism. I'm not sure there is any evidence that it was staged or fraudulent (such as the right pretending to be terrorist leftists, if that's what you're hinting at) just because it took place at Comet. Perhaps some plots were foiled by various agencies, too? Happens often...although perhaps we'd have heard about it in this case.
  11. Suppressed By Facebook? Try Gab.ai

    That one organization is the one approving the Facebook "fact checkers", and it's funded in part by Soros. The evidence is on their own official website, so it's clearly not something dreamt up, as you falsely claimed. Spend a little more time looking at it if it doesn't make sense yet. First of all, you just asked who you're slandering and pointing fingers at. Well, right here you did that to me, attempting to insinuate that I'm a racist. You actually should be reported to the moderators for this kind of slander, but I'll hold off to see if you repeat it against anyone else. I'll tell you about the alt-right. When the campaigning was happening this past year, I suddenly heard about this alt-right movement one day, and did some research into it. I found that many non-racist people were identifying with being "alt-right" and writing favorable articles on it, assuming that the term meant literally what it says...a fresh right wing alternative to the GOP, which many were parting from due to the GOP's attempts at undermining their own candidate. What these non-racist people didn't realize was that "alt-right" originated with Richard Spencer and his white nationalist think tank (who are actual racists). Due to having done my research, I never called myself alt-right or identified with their views. I'm a multiculturalist. Furthermore, the very heart of this forum, the Daobums, is multiculturalism. The name itself derives from a philosophy originating in China. I personally go to grad school to study Chinese Medicine, and part of that involves a deep education into their history and cultural quirks. I'm also an Americanist...I don't want to see an America where we kick out or discriminate against any culture or race. I love the world's cultures, and have no disrespect for any race of people. America is a melting pot, and has been since its inception. Please, take the attempted-manipulative name calling elsewhere. Any criticism of Soros is not due to him being Jewish (which tends to be the last thing on my mind)...it's due to the fact that he's using his money to manipulate world events in a way that I think is opposed to freedom. For instance, censoring the sharing of alternative media publications while promoting false and biased journalism on the most widely used internet platform in an attempt to control the public mind.
  12. Suppressed By Facebook? Try Gab.ai

    I really don't see that at all, and think this kind of tactic is highly manipulative and slanderous. For instance, I think 100% of the people who are opposed to Soros' actions are Trump supporters. And Trump is in favor of Israel. So there's a major disconnect between that and the insinuation that people are being anti-Semitic. I think people are being pro-freedom. I was repeating what you posted...I wouldn't make any assumptions about how you feel.
  13. Suppressed By Facebook? Try Gab.ai

    There's nothing dreamt up. I already gave you evidence of his connection in this post. Why does anything with Soros affect you personally, making you "tired"? That seems strange to me.
  14. Suppressed By Facebook? Try Gab.ai

    You spoke some real truths. I'm surprised Facebook banned you just for that (although I do believe you, of course).
  15. CIA's proof of telepathy

    To echo what thelerner has said, just to keep perspectives in mind... The easiest kind of magic to pull off is to get a reliable source to tell a fictional story about magic really happening. It's super easy. That being said, I believe the CIA for the most part. While supernormal, these things are within the realm of possibility.
  16. It's also good to just banish them/it, which is as simple as telling them to leave and meaning it. Done and done...it's that simple. Sometimes clapping loudly, or turning on bright lights while instructing them to be gone, adds that extra bit of efficacy. How can yin beings exist in a brightly lit room? IME, they don't. Perhaps instead of any mysterious reasons, it mostly has to do with our own minds. Just my view...getting religious helps. Bad spirits flee from holiness and goodness, which like a torch dispels darkness. If good spirits are around, which are attracted to positive and goodness, they keep away the bad ones so that you don't have to. Courage...the inner knowing that you can face anything...also acts like that torch. Best to not intentionally invite spirits, good or bad. Anyway...like I said, I'm not that experienced and could be wrong about some things. Best of luck.
  17. I read once on the forum someone from a Sufi order saying that negative spirits will try to enter your body, whereas positive ones won't ever infringe...which speaks volumes on the subject of mediums. Coincidentally, my only experience with that was when viewing the picture of a totally unrelated Sufi master, it seemed like he had a spirit that tried to enter me through my lower body...which was strange because as a Sufi I think he was supposed to be good? Really don't have much experience personally, except that contact with positive ones seems beneficial spiritually, and in line with karmic laws...and on the flip side, if you're ever in a very negative and prolonged state of emotions, shadow beings may show up. You can literally start seeing dark movements in your vision, for instance if walking in the evening. That's a time to realize that you've got to stop cultivating negative emotions and thoughts, and focus on very good things. Which should be all of the time, but hey, we're human and have both dark and light to deal with within. Also, ghosts would be classified under the "negative" side of things...despite being non-malicious, they aren't good for humans to be around. It's pretty obvious when you're actually sharing space with a ghost...you get spooked. Just my very limited experience with this stuff.
  18. Glogal Warming HOAX exposed!

    The only thing necessary to disprove global warming/"climate change" is to listen to the predictions of its early proponents.
  19. Study of Logic

    VI I'll be honest...my attention span was lost with those last two videos. I'll try to set aside some extra time to dig deep into them and get caught up here.
  20. Ramble On

    Something interesting I learned this year...Tavistock owns the conspiracy forum godlikeproductions. If you do a search there for Tavistock, nothing comes up...if you post something about it, there's an automatic ban.
  21. Runes

    This gigantic forum doesn't have a proper topic on the runes? If anyone has good information please add it here. Well, I have looked at various books about the runes but this one seems to be my favorite: Runes for Transformation I'm not a fan of divination or most of the info out there, and was looking for a more transformational/spiritual/mystical approach to discovering them. Only just checking this out this evening, so I don't know much except for the little I'd skimmed over. The author seems to be very knowledgeable on the subject, more so than anyone else I've ever read! That's all for now.
  22. Inauguration Events

    A great speech by the new President. I hope he stays true to his words here, and also that he stays safe.
