  1. Itā€™s a beautiful picture. But imo the dragon needs to be green and must have only 4 toes (5 = emperor; 3 = Japanese). Green and #4 relate to Wood.
  2. OP: ā€œWhat would happen if people collectivley decided that money/currency has no value in itself, and abanded it?ā€ Nothing would happen. Due to a technicality, nothing needed to be abandoned.
  3. How empty is no emptiness meditation?

    I believe that is your understanding and opinion. I will not argue about that. I can only tell what it is, other than what it is not. Peace! (CD)

    Your quotes are from a post by exorcist_1699 (not Master Logray).

  9. How do you personally meditate?

    Pink sorry, thatā€™s the Dutch word for ā€˜little fingerā€™.
  10. How do you personally meditate?

    My right hand palm upward, pressed along the width of the back of the wrist; found a ā€˜soreā€™ spot and rubbed it with a circular motion.

    Pain gone! Very interesting indeed.
  12. How do you personally meditate?

    @ChiDragon Serious question. Iā€™m having a small insignificant pain (in the pink of my right hand). So thatā€™s my ā€˜painā€™ spot. I wanted to use it to practice acupressure. But I canā€™t detect a corresponding ā€˜soreā€™ spot. How do I find the ā€˜soreā€™ spot when I donā€™t feel one?
  13. How do you personally meditate?

    Thanks. That too is good to know. I never liked the idea of needles being stuck in me, so I was never interested in acupuncture. But to be able to use acupressure myself, yes that idea I like very much.
  14. How do you personally meditate?

    Thanks. Thatā€™s good to know. Righto. So when thereā€™s pain somewhere, there will always be another spot that is also aching (the ā€˜soreā€™ spot)?
  15. And this is imo exactly what Laozi said too (Ch 42): All turn their backs on the Yin, and embrace the Yang. Centring the circulating life force, will create harmony. 萬 ē‰© č²  陰 而 ꊱ 陽 äø­ ę°£ 仄 ē‚ŗ 和 wĆ n wĆ¹ fĆ¹ yÄ«n Ć©r bĆ o yĆ”ng zhōng qƬ yĒ wĆ©i hĆ©
