What are you talking about? Panda behavior in Japan? Huh?

What authoritarian determines what is incorrect or not in regards to the free expression of coherent emotions and sexuality? The religious ideology of so called incorrect views have caused untold pain and suffering. Not liberation as you believe.

When I have a chance I will start a new thread on this.

I think that is a fair question on my part. Do you take on a belief system from another culture or do you engage in a critical thought process to arrive at your own conclusions? Further, this concept that you hold around transcending what some might view as unpleasant sexual feelings, is rooted in your own point of view or an external authoritarian point of view? Sexuality and hormonal functioning are not separate from the organism and in no way can be dispensed with. That is what my comment about removing all hormones in a previous post to you was about. The subject of Buddhist's came up in your previous post and the implication is that monks and Lama's have somehow dealt with their sexuality. It is a known fact that in general, monks and Lama's freely engage in sexual activity within the confines of their monasteries. Further, the abuse of Catholic priests among their parishioners and in particular their altar boys is well known. If you make sweeping generalizations that all monks are celibate and have transcended their sexuality, I will call you on it. I remember reading accounts of the Spanish Inquisition where torture and death were used as a means to purify the sin of sexuality. Rigid personality types will always seek to control pleasure.

Now you are wanting to change your posts and by extension your beliefs about what you post. Exactly, what do you believe?

You just made my point by quoting an ancient sutra and attaching a lofty value to it. Explain to me how attachment to sexuality can be dispensed with when that function is systemic. Have you tried removing all hormones?

Where do you get off? You have taken this idea around sexuality and made it into something it is not. Now you have aliens conspiring against Non to keep his third eye closed for what purpose? Non must be some high and mighty master and aliens are out to disrupt his enlightenment. You believe that sex needs to be overcome because it is some limiting and addictive force. Why on earth do spiritual seekers belief such nonsense. The Buddha said so, my Lama said so or it is written in some ancient text. There is absolutely no proof that ridding oneself of sexual urges brings one any closer to enlightenment. The best writing on the subject of sexual suppression, is Wilhelm Reich's 'Mass Psychology of Fascism'. Reich discusses the nature of sexual suppression as coming from religions that are advocating some higher cause and the only way to that illusory sublime place is through suppressing (sacrificing) one's natural sexual drives and doing what you are told! The punitive measures of failing to do so are myriad in number. Historically, Reich examined mass movements and the psychological makeup of. Reich wrote the first edition during the Nazi's rise to power and was able to observe first hand what suppression can cause. Hitler had an obsession to rid Germany of anyone that did not conform to the higher cause of creating the perfect Aryan race. The perfect race excluded by default anyone with homosexual tendencies or the expression of. Hitler had Ernst Rohm killed because Rohm was gay. Even though Rohm was responsible for helping form the 3rd. Reich and bring Hitler to power. That did not stop with Rohm. Anyone exhibiting sexuality outside Hitler's idea of, was to be put in concentration camps and done away with. Conformity and book burning were enforced by jackbooted thugs goose stepping as a display of rigid character armoring which would be responsible for the deaths of millions. According to Reich's research, character armoring and the rigid personality types that are the result of, are caused by various forms of child abuse. Child abuse creates various rigid structures in the fascia, muscles and therefor creates a limitation in physical expressions of sexuality, creativity, inhibited breathing and freedom of emotional expression. In other words, neurotic and psychotic personalities that will do the bidding of authoritarian personalities. Germany, Stalinist Russia and the Cultural Revolution are the most current examples. One other movement that can't be ignored here in the U.S. is the religious right wing and their use of political power for their own devious interests. For more information; Alice Miller and Alexander Lowen are well worth reading from a therapeutic point of view. For an historical account, there is none better than William Shirer's 'Rise and Fall of The Third Reich'. http://www.sonoma.edu/users/d/daniels/reichlecture.html

I wonder if this guy is who he says he is or if he truly is in China. The business address is in Indianapolis. I still have my doubts if he is a real translator or not.

Personally, I take plenty of L arginine ethyl ester and ZMA fuel along with a good protein shake every morning. That is my resurrection formula.

I have been rather busy as of late and have been thinking about the study as discussed on the video. Here is an excellent example of gross incompetence by the CEO's of Border's Books and yet they are still being paid large bonuses. For the purpose of what? http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4825471

I am sorry to hear about Joe's health condition. I hope you are able to find excellent care for him. However, trying to correlate these other issues with Joe's condition is missing the point. There is no relationship whatsoever with the plumbing problems. Just focus on helping him get well with no distraction.

As for Bardon, I think he put too much emphasis on "divine providence" as some absolute controlling force and rigid rules as to how one relates with "divine providence." That term was used in Europe at that time and was even used by Hitler in justifying his heinous acts. His insistence that if one does not follow his instructions in IIH to the letter, then one will never accomplish KTQ etc. Honestly, there more efficient ways than IIH. I only use certain parts of Bardon's writings that I find useful. Bradon's books are nothing more than compilations of his notes and lectures that were compiled by his secretary.

You sound as if you have guilt around this issue. Further, I think you are just suppressing your natural drives. Just relax and enjoy life.

The most interesting, intelligent and controversial participants have been banned temporarily or permanently. With that action by the moderators, that has created a lack of interest by some that remain. There seems to be a move to create a more sanitized discussion forum that is more spiritually correct. Very boring to say the least! These punitive actions have been a result of a few "valued members" complaints. I have yet to have an answer as to who the valued members are.

Here is the 17.00 offer. http://earthwaterfireair.com/white-lotus-revolutions/

He claims to have translated these ancient texts and unless he is well versed in the culture and language, I have doubts.

Has anyone ordered this? Any comments? Wudangquan, are you a Chinese scholar or did someone else do the translating?

Couldn't let this thread go. I saw Robert Plant perform this live about 3 years ago.

The reason your arguments are not based in fact, is that all life evolved from DNA. DNA are the building blocks of bacterium, primitive life forms, humans, etc. The myriad combinations of DNA are what is responsible for the diverse lifeforms that have evolved over time on this planet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA

Here is a good start. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwinius

State facts and references please! As opposed to what you have been fed by fundamentalists. People like you would put this world back into the "dark ages."

You posit a false assumption and your assumptions are not facts! The fossil record is tied to the geological record and that is where the time frames are obtained from. No researcher makes arbitrary assumptions as you do. Further, you know nothing about the scientific method and are only interested in causing trouble!

No one has ever claimed that bacteria made the evolutionary leap from bacterium to Homo sapiens. You keep harping on this yet show no evidence. Except, your fundamentalist, creationist propaganda.

Have you read any books on evolution? Taken college courses in science? Adaptation is part of the process in the evolution of new species. Evolution takes into account millions of years in any given process.

Immortal, Read this. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn14094-bacteria-make-major-evolutionary-shift-in-the-lab.html
