  1. Spotting a fake master

    kakapo replied to idiot_stimpy's topic in General Discussion

    Is there good evidence for their abilities, documented on video with scientists present to try and debunk? If yes, go investigate. If no, assume they are a fake master.

  2. the need to know

    kakapo replied to old3bob's topic in General Discussion

    It would be paralyzing to try and absorb and process all this information without a filter. Here is my filter: Is there good hard objective evidence on camera with professionals present to try and debunk? If yes, then learn all you can. If no, then ignore until such evidence is presented.
  3. Predictive programming? This is a super bowl commercial.

  5. What is your favorite (daoist?) breakfast?

  9. Probably like skipping leg day?
  10. Truth be told, a lot of magicians believe in the power of sigils and egregore and similar concepts. Most likely the reason he wants us to listen to this file is that they believe it's been engineered to channel energy back to the creator from the listeners. Something like drawing power from internet memes or what have you.
  11. Not even succubi?
  12. You know why most lawyers are demons? Because possession is 9/10ths of the law.
  13. Can we name the audio file Stereo-oids?
  14. When I was a child I used to make up all kinds of games of the imagination. I have very vivid memories of being in 1st grade and on the playground. We all agreed to to believe a rock was the triforce from Zelda, and we went around shooting each other with our magic swords. I have had a few friends that never grew out of that stage. One friend Sam, told me his next spell was going to enable him to hollow out a mountain for an army of the undead. Keep in mind Sam at this time was probably 24 years old. This sort of magical thinking is a game of the imagination, just like when we were children and made up all kinds of things to play. These people obviously know they can't lift 10,000 pounds, or run faster than the speed of light and fight ancient naga demons. They absolutely know what reality is. It's just they enjoy roleplaying, they are adults who enjoy making their real life into dungeons and dragons. I don't think they are manic at all, just bored.

  18. Battle of the LARPS.

    Summer, I belong to a group of people which study a particular practice, many in our group have been members of this forum since the days of Ron Jeremy circa 2004 We have seen things get to the point of being absolutely psychotic here on the forum. In comparison the current vibe of the forum is very mild, and actually seems to be improving. Lot's of progress has been made to stop the trolls, and most members of my group are overjoyed we no longer have to listen to how awful, stupid and terrible we are on a daily basis. Stick around for a while and you'll see this place is definitely improving from what it used to be.
  20. In the system I practice, MCO is strictly forbidden, and yet for some reason we get a huge influx of people who know better and want to combine as many practices as possible to create some new system. They wind up injuring themselves, or being institutionalized. Never do they accept responsibility for the consequences of their actions. Always they blame our practice, trying to convince others how dangerous it is. I have seen this happen over and over and over. If you don't give fire the respect it deserves and you play around with it, you'll be burned alive.

    If you lost yang chi being grounded to the earth, outdoor animals wouldn't be able to thrive like they do.

    Lots of people claim lots of things. Don't take investment advice from a homeless person. In the school I study we are taught that we must sit on the earth during meditation and training to absorb yin chi, and if we are not grounded we cannot absorb it and cannot progress in the system.

  23. Spotless at Batgap

    Please create a new thread, and I will be happy to explore this topic with you. Trying to do so here will drag this thread off topic.
  24. I am blown away by the congress people's comments after the inspector general of the intelligence community briefed them on this topic. The link above is worth watching.
