Self realized masters say that the Self realizes the Self by the Self...lets add eternal and changeless in there for kicks.

This would have looked a lot more real if the eyes had blinked and the mouth/lips had moved...someday we may get better proof one way or another...

"Understanding the mechanics of something is one thing, actually putting them into practice and getting them to work is another thing entirely in my opinion at least, As long as the latter escapes them (and I think that will always be the case) I remain happy enough" : true enough but the implied intent of dark forces would probably not be to get things working as originally intended or designed if that is what you meant for the dharmic benefit of beings but for the opposite of that and thus a corruption for evil ways... I don't know all the story by a long shot but there was Milarepa who used (Tibetan) magic that at some point in history before him must have also been corrupted into black sorcery which he used to murder village people, fortunately he turned to Buddhism and repentance of those deeds, while unfortunately some do not turn back like he did.

on a side note one could take a long swim in really cold water, (however many times necessary) which will get the mind off of sex and most other other subjects besides wanting to get warmed back up. (just don't kill yourself with hypothermia)

I'd say on small individual scales for those with good karma, check but on massive scales of dark karma's that effect millions of individuals negatively, not check (getting off my earlier question, although there is still some connection)

I'd say indications are that massive amounts of planet wide dark karma from adharmic actions are apparently coming into play, along with the almost eternal and mounting astral attacks of greater darkness being made against mankind... don't know what happened to the "age of Aquarius"...?

"Any teacher of proper neigong/neidan will explain this to you" ...btw what do those teachers do when evil forces try to co-opt such teachings? (being there is so much info in the public domain)

non-dualism can not contain any separate illusions...

I'm fine with that also...

not fishing trips...

suggest study, you missed it...

some say it "chops wood and carries water"...

no need to continue making this or that nagging projection or assumption on what I'm convinced about etc. or to apologize for this or that about same? I try not to make myself too comfortable by pigeon holing this or that way as you are apparently compelled to do?

that would probably not do any good since you are such and such a teacher with a leg up on others and who brags about it....while also making presumptions about Hinduism without being one, btw I'm only a visitor and guest to Hinduism so you will have to get your qualified answers from whatever enlightened Guru you can find while keeping protocol? Btw I'm not interested in becoming a Buddhist although I appreciate many of the wise sayings that have come from it.

I'd say that we definitely do not have the same soul times countless quad-drillions x quad-drillions, etc... thus there is the unique natures that we all have. But if an individual soul merges back into no longer being identified as individual soul along with their soul/light body no longer existing since it then dissolves into the "ocean" then we could say they are returned to the Supreme-undifferentiated-Soul or Spirit....which almost no one is ready for or evolved to the point of no coming back....Btw it could also be said that we have many that want to be and remain as individual super-duper dudes or dude-etts, so to speak

sounds more likely to be your interpretation of Zen...is there one appointed or recognized that speaks for all of Zen teachings and its teachers? (and Striling is it?) from "Om Tat Sat" such is true.

I've been in the Olympic National rain forest in the north west US. Any creature could easily hide in there including a Big Foot! Heck if a person walked a little ways into the trees and heavy ferns they could get lost quickly (if they weren't careful) since much of the sunlight gets blocked out and everything looks the same besides the fact of not being able to see more than a few yards, I wouldn't dare be in such a place at night. Call me chicken. (although some parts have trails and are more open)

we can state our take in certain ways (per the site) but the rest of that is trying to stuff it down peoples throats, thus I suggest your cooling your presumptuous jets. (btw, at times I've not been innocent of such things myself per my variation)

I see down under has its own variation of Big-foot: Yowie History This is a very brief introduction on the history of the Yowie. There will be more detailed information quoting historical records on the new website shortly. Yowies are out in our Australian bush and have been well documented throughout Australian colonial history from as early as 1789 and found in Aboriginal history. The Yowie is common in Aboriginal culture and has gone by many different names depending on the region. In Queensland the Yowie is known to some Aboriginal tribes as quinkin and joogabinna. while in New South Wales it is known as thoolagal, jurrawarra, myngawin, puttikan, doolaga,gularga, and Ghindaring. Some other names include yaroma, noocoonah, wawee, pangkarlangu, tjangara and jimbra.

True Masters, Saints, Sages, Gurus, Buddha's, and Deities blessings., radiate compassionate warmth and light energy from their whole being and can be felt and even be seen if we are not totally asleep or blind to it...I don't know about seemingly confining it to just the heart either, which is obviously part of the whole being. In India depending on context such is called Darshan. (which is mostly not understood in the west being many eastern religions have very valid connection to what some scoff at and discount as just being idols of Deities)

I've told my wife to talk nice to her vehicles and she just laughs . Anyway I do believe there can be some sort of connection between mankind and machine but no one can measure it. Not unlike that there can be some sort of connection between mankind and rocks...

ok, I was just randomly seraching:
