Generative force, relationship, and vasectomy
soaring crane replied to BearlyTao's topic in Daoist Discussion
Well, did that school of thought simply say that, or could they support their claim with reasoning and well-researched evidence (and dd they have a better understanding of the procedure than has been displayed in this thread so far)? I suspect it's just a baseless, conformist view. I'd say one of the absolute worst things one can do on a spiritual path is be affected by other people's biases and baseless fears. -
Generative force, relationship, and vasectomy

whoopsie, I only saw your second post -
That's a must for sure. And at the very least, provide more details to what is being praticed now, and the source of the information.

Generative force, relationship, and vasectomy
soaring crane replied to BearlyTao's topic in Daoist Discussion
everything leaves the body. The sperm cells, which continue to be produced at the pre-op rate, are simply absorbed. They leave the body through different channels than nature intended, but they go nonetheless. -
funny, when I read something like that, I feel more turned off than attracted to this person.

for the record, my comment re feeling good about your therapist was motivated by these two posts. While I agree with the spirit of Luke's statement, I wouldn't make it the priority. The worst scenario is finding a therapist that confirms your convictions and prejudices for you, and that generally happens with the ones who you feel the strongest attraction to.

Sorry, I meant "Applied Kinesiology", it's an alternative medicine offshoot of Kinesology. If you look into it, you'll find a lot of criticism, and lot of that is justified, but a good therapist can solve deep, deep psychological issues. How it works is pretty simple, but the therapist hast to be legitimate, objective and sensitive. Basically, you'll be asked questions and the therapist will be able to know the source of the answers you give based on changes in your muscle tension. S/he'll allow the direction of the questioning to change dynamically, depending on your reactions. Sessions typically become a journey back through time, back to your birth, and before. A session can last hours, but you generally only need to do it once. It's a lot more complex than my short description, but that's basically it in a nutshell. The only way to know beforehand if the therapist is good or not, I guess, is to hear from other clients. Gotta go, can get to the other stuff later

Everything. I really hope the effect of that exercise is healthy and not something like bipolar disorder.

My mom wrote that it was zero in NY, so you're not alone! It in the 40s here in Germany, with warmer weather on the way Ă°

Two methods that I can recommend are kinesiology and family constellation. See if they're available in your area.I can write more about them if you like. Fwiw, I don't agree that a good therapist has to be someone you "feel" good about.

yessss ... if you dig back far enough in the archives, you'll find discussions that would result in mass bans today. But the site was much smaller then, and there was a lot of "competition" out there, most of which was strictly moderated as I recall.

How do we know what's yin and what's yang . Really.
soaring crane replied to TaoMaster's topic in Daoist Discussion
you might enjoy this, TM: I think most people here will enjoy it. -
Hi BearlyTao I want to point out that there are forums for all of these subjects. I suggest familiarizing yourself with the website first and then posting in appropriate forums. This forum is chiefly for introductions.

that is bizarre. Well, their loss, our gain :-)

Hello BearlyTao, and welcome to the forums! Glad you found your way to us. The questions you pose have no short, definitive answers. There are many, many schools of thought on these subjects.

Sauna! :-) -
I'm curious why you would suddenly start a thread just to announce this?
