Welcome denele. Chia is easy to misinterpret. How are you feeling otherwise?

Hehe that pic looks like when Sterlings wipes out on his magic carpet The rest is just semantics. Like maybe private is a better word than secret. It's no secret what's underneath our clothes, but only in certain circumstances should it be discussed in detail. How much more intimate should our very soul be considered? Then the idea of whether you mean spiritual or magikal. If for whatever reason you don't have a thousand incarnations to work on it like usually happens, then there are lots of safety protocols some of which have already been mentioned. Finally i will say this: Jesus did not keep it a secret and just look what happened to him. I usually don't talk about that though because i like to keep the saviour's name hallowed.

Or like if you see someone wearing a super rad looking pair of denim jeans. Faded and frayed in just the the perfect places. And you ask them, "damn, what's your secret to looking so good?" The answer is plain to see. There is no secret whatsoever. This material has simply put in a lot of work over a long time. There are designers out there who will sell you a type of pre-worn denim, but it usually won't look exactly right, for you.

is the LAMP just limping or is there a DDOS going on? I know how to read var log http if you need backup.

Welcome aintmt. Judging by the subject line do you also like computer programming?

One time Dan Kim told me a story about his teacher Gabe Chin. He had gotten into a car accident and was being examined for internal bleeding by the doctor. He said here let me breathe into the upper, middle, and lower lobes of my right lung individually, and you can listen with your stethoscope and compare if anything sounds obstructed. The doc was like what do mean humans can't control their internal organs to that degree of intention! But Gabe was a Yang Taiji master. They proceeded to do the thing and the doctor confirmed medically that Master Chin was able to do what he'd described with regard to his breath. Have you heard of this kind of ability? I wonder if can be done with not just air but other substances, such as moving lymph with the spleen.

ordinary transcendence: the ability to break free from the matrix. transcended transcendence: the decision to go back in and help others out.

One way is to get a Medal of Saint Benedict. I’ve heard he’s good at getting rid of ghosts.

On the subject of meek or powerless inheriting earth, there’s an example in the Old Testament, somewhere in 2nd Kings. When Nebuchadnezzar conquered Jerusalem, everyone especially those in prestigious positions were imprisoned and exiled to Babylon. The people who were doing physical work like tending the vineyards were left to carry on production as ever. Taking it a step further in Isaiah ch. 65, the prophet describes a time when God “will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind,” and people “will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit. No longer will they build houses and others live in them, or plant and others eat.” Just getting along doing whatever, without the need for dominance over one another. Perhaps resembling the return to simplicity described in the final chapters of Daodejing.

It's a lovely rendition of Dragons Gate style alchemy. You know, disappearing into the mysterious passage to combine lead and mercury into elixirs, conceive a golden fetus, and ascend to heaven. From 性命要旨 Xìng Mìng Yào Zhǐ by 汪东亭 Wāng Dōngtíng.

I wonder how @Limahong is doing. There's not enough animated GIFs on here
