since coming to the taobums, ive tried to post on a few other forums. it didnt work out. The bums are the are the only ones on the internet that feel "real" Its sort of like a gathering of people who are in the business of being people. you can find people who get angry when their viewpoints are challenged anywhere on the net. but this is the only place where ive seen someone admit that they are wrong.

I thought we were doing pretty good lately. I usually try to 1. think things through, before replying to a post. 2. not get angry at disagreements (though I can get a bit sarcastic on occasion)

I chose to let 5 people die each time. Its the only choice that really makes me feel good, or more like absent of bad train let 5 people die- i dont really want to get involved in this situation, I dont know the right answer. That fat man is standing over there maybe he'll do something. why are 6 people stuck on the tracks anyways!!! let one person die- theres no right answer so maybe ill just kill this guy. push the fat man- while screaming "He who hesitates is lost!" throw myself in- WHAT? GOOD KARMA?

since starting kap Ive seen a few cases of spinal realignment while practicing the inner smile. Mainly using it on myself, and once on santiago when he was teaching us. You can learn the inner smile from pathnotes of an american ninja master by Glenn Morris or the kap 1 course mantak chia teaches a different version of the smile.

? If i am correct a slipped disc is a problem with spinal alignment, and a hernia is a tear in the intestinal lining. Were you mistaken, am i mistaken, or does your friend have both? also in what position does your friend sleep?

nice site I like the idea of it having something to do with fire yoga too.

so from what i know about global warming. people are cutting down rainforests, which prevents trees from converting co2 to oxygen. I think 20 percent of oxygen is produced in the rain forest. people also introduce chemical pollutants into the atmosphere through combustion (cars factories ect) this creates extra "greenhouse gasses" that trap more heat from the sun. extra heat increases world temperatures at a faster rate than the natural global warming rate. Are you suggesting that this is wrong in some way?

thanks.

looking at the symbolism in the story, hope is entwined with suffering (in the same box). The message is that hope is the crest of cyclic existence(samsara) where suffering is the trough. they perpetuate each other. Does hope simultaneously sustain humanity while causing its hunger?

Ever been to Arkansas?

on a related note: I was in a university history class the other day. The class size was about average. It was a basic world civilization course so we had a wide ranging mixture of majors. It was snowing outside. The teacher, who was retired from the army, looked out the window and posed the following question "Who here believes in global warming?" One guy who was coming in late sat down and raised his hand allowing it to linger for a moment in the air all alone, then lowered it and proceeded to go about his business. The initial shock of this had worn off of me by that point so I raised my hand as well. The teacher still staring out the window continued "I believe in Global warming." In conclusion, almost 7 percent of a random sample of university students "believe in global warming."

you have a fine point

If you mass produce this I our population growth would exceed 1,000,000,000 per year. If my statistics are correct.

actually i think thats how i found this site too. welcome

get the embed tag then place it between youtube tags [utube]embed[/utube] spell youtube as youtube not utube

presence in the now? Its traditionally accepted that enlightenment is necessarily prescence in the now, but if we are present in the now it is not necessarily enlightenment. Is desire lack or the rising of fulfillment. Can one desire without being attached? Does hope simultaneously sustain humanity while causing its hunger?

apparently this person lost 25 pounds in a month using acai powder and colon cleanse. http://amysweightlossdiary.com/?s=t

We prefer to call it a paradox.

4 cheers for trunk hooray

well I know where ill be going next time taobums is down.

chi can help speed realization. Thats what it does for me anyways. Its a ride. I suppose giving energy to something amplifies it. so developing chi amplifies you. if its healing it amplifies and resolves. when most people recieve a form of energy they arent ready for it. political power= corrupt leaders money= spoiled rock stars, they say money changes people ect. now for people who meditate, and seek to possess some truth or virtue, this is useful. It allows you to understand your internal motivations, and drives. It allows access to your unconscious aspects. you can then clear out all the lies that hold you back. whats left without lies?

The 5 excellencies thread talked about this guy.
