  1. I received a death threat.

    The Tao is all and everything with no exceptions. Think about it.
  2. I received a death threat.

    Have you reported the threats to law enforcement? After all, the police are part of the Tao.
  3. People love to categorize and be categorized which leads to limitations or acting out a belief that is not real.
  4. Exactly. Persons should exercise caution when it comes to self diagnosis. Can be an excuse to act out.
  5. She is most likely equating conspiracy theories with fact without proof. Why not post substance as opposed to the conspiracy bunk you are so in love with.
  6. When will these people stop whining? The problem is she is blinded by faith and fails to understand the scientific process. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/03/12/creationist-slams-neil-degrasse-tysons-cosmos-for-blind-faith-in-scientific-theories/ Creationist slams Neil deGrasse Tyson’s ‘Cosmos’ for ‘blind faith’ in scientific theories

  8. Dream Hikes

    Anyone that has hiked, climbed or backpacked in the wilderness must have a dream hike destination. Here is my first one. Mt. Whitney on the John Muir trail. I have camped out next to the glacial end moraine below Whitney (above Lone Pine).
  9. I believe this company has authentic items. http://www.garudashop.com/default.asp
  10. Wild yogis playing kanglings (human thigh bone trumpets) and I imagine a few damarus made from human skulls.
  11. It is called psychosomatic illness. I happen to know a few in my town who claim they are allergic to the electrical current in wiring. The only allergic reaction to that is by grabbing a 110 or 220 line.
  12. Dream Hikes

    I have hiked in the White Mountains. The Whitney trail and by extension the John Muir trail is brutal. When I hiked Wheeler Peak I decided to take a shortcut away from regular trail. Big mistake! I always take shortcuts which turn out to be worse!

    No crocs hanging out?

    Here is a documentary on New Mexico's volcano's. Volcano's make for the best hiking.
  15. Dream Hikes

    I have spent many days over the years in the Jemez mountains. Especially in the Valles Caldera. This particular caldera is the second largest collapsed caldera on the planet. Estimated height of the original volcano is around 27,000 ft. This particular caldera was thought to be extinct but has been upgraded to dormant. Los Alamos National Labs has a monitoring station to keep tabs on any activity. The lab sits on the downside of these mountains

    Wheeler Peak in Taos NM is one of my favorites! At an elevation of 13,167 the air begins to get a little thin. Wheeler is one of a ring of mountains that surround Williams Lake. One big glacial cirque.
  17. the power of clenching

    Conduct a test on yourself and feel the relationship between a tense jaw and the rest of the body. I can feel the difference.

    These are inspiring books. http://www.amazon.com/1-000-MILE-SUMMER-V631-Colin-Fletcher/dp/0394746317/ref=la_B000APBE5U_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394307632&sr=1-5 http://www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Walked-Through-Time/dp/0679723064/ref=la_B000APBE5U_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394307632&sr=1-2
  19. Handstand on Mt. Huashan

    That particular hike is rated as the most dangerous on earth. http://www.hotelclub.com/blog/huashan-trail-worlds-most-dangerous-hiking-trail/ Start the following video at 3:00 to get the real feel of this. The second video shows the insanity of hiking this trail.
  20. the power of clenching

    If the jaw is tense the rest of the body will be tense.The jaw and the pelvis are the most conditioned parts of the body. Guilt, fear etc. remain unresolved when suppressed trauma/emotions are not dealt with. Most are not aware of this.
  21. Old conspiracy theory with links that don't work. The documents in question are partly redacted which reduces credibility.
  22. Handstand on Mt. Huashan

    I have climbed down into canyons on moonless nights in July without a flashlight where western diamondback rattlesnakes hang out. This particular canyon required climbing down rock face which was not that technical but was the only way in or out of the canyon. Most of the 800 ft. climb is as shown in the first photo but there are areas of rock face that must be traversed and climbing at night by feel is no easy task. I always wonder what I would have done with a rattler on that rock face. The Western Diamondback is aggressive and mean! Below are photos of Alamo canyon which is part of Bandelier National Monument. These canyons were formed from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago.
