  1. No, you don't have to build a Dantian

    I wouldn't know a dalmatian from a dantian. But even I would guess there are steps needed to improve dantian as a container of energy. To enable energy stored inside to retain its purity & refined essence. Anyone that knows basic science should be able to guess that much. Whether you're refining energy, metals or even sand. Leakage is undesirable.
  2. The Controversy

    I will contend. The founding fathers were more extremist in the defense of liberty & democrazy than ancient greece. Extremism has shades of black and white and isn't absolute one or the other.
  3. I think it helps to remember there is a small percentage of people with immunity to local anesthetic. There are some of european scandinavian descent with a DNA mutation giving them immunity to AIDs/HIV. People are dissimilar and typically need to find out what is optimal for them on an individual level. While clarity and peace may be the path for some. Others they might find calm in chaos and noise. Nature is a freaky mysterious thing and the idyllic and utopian view people have of there being a one size fits all teaching for everyone. Is something that does not necessarily exist.

  5. Inner Calm Through Surrender

    The meek will inherit the earth.
  6. Inner Calm Through Surrender

    ...............
  7. Artic adaptation+ !

  8. Foundation, and feeling the qi

    I don't know why. But when I see the name Nathan Brine. I stop paying attention & couldn't care less what he says.
  9. Alchemy, is it real ??

    This guy so unnecessarily negative.
  10. Alchemy, is it real ??

    I only commented on eastern alchemy. Not eastern internal alchemy. So nah.
  11. Alchemy, is it real ??

    This guy ^ always being so unnecessarily negative. Its not good for your health bruh.
  12. "Improved libido and erectile function." Accurate or inaccurate?
  13. Alchemy, is it real ??

    Its best not to speak of things one has no background or experience with. Not approaching it is an indication of intelligence.
  14. Alchemy, is it real ??

    I guess I might say western alchemy is Sir Isaac Newton exposing himself to toxic levels of mercury attempting to refine a philosopher's stone (elixir). While eastern alchemy is a legendary unicorn proprietary intellectual property that is 100% unavailable to 99.9% of people. Eastern alchemy is like winning gamblers. Everyone tries to discuss what leads to consistent winning in gambling. With nearly all of their conversation failing to amount to more than idle speculation.
  15. Alchemy, is it real ??

    Its been claimed chlorella binds to heavy metals making it easier to do a full body cleanse. Activated organic charcoal ingestion is another method some swear by.
  16. How powerful is hypnotism?

    Famous actor Danny Trejo says Charles Manson hypnotised him when they were both in prison. Manson could hypnotise people and make them believe they were high on weed or heroin. Could this be a good form of treatment in drug rehab centers? Does hypnotism have a place in the dao. For training purposes or therapy.
  17. obsolete

    obsoolete = feet guys apparently
  18. Self dicipline

    It is easy to be disciplined. What is hard is knowing what is important.
  19. When I think of the past, all I remember are the positives and the good. What does it mean to suppress anger? Anger correlates with me being foolish & doing things I regret. Anger is an irrational emotion leading to irrational choices. Recognizing these fundamental principles. It becomes easier to let go of anger and embrace things which might do some good for the world.
  20. show your restorations

    Good point. Some plastics degrade under UV light or thermal heat. Others like polycarbonate are resistant. I'll have to check what type of plastic sheeting I planned to use to see how UV resistant it is. Planned to cover the plastic liner with sand and pebbles. I think fish prefer a certain type of pebble to lay their eggs in. Last I checked tilapia eat mosquito larvae and algae(if I remember correctly). There are fish farm released tilapia swimming in a river nearby which I thought I might collect. From experience I know tilapia also eat bread and kitchen scraps. Its just the filter that is an issue. I would like to build some type of scaffolding to mount a solar panel to power it. In a way that I feel good about. Which isn't so easy atm.
