I believe euthanasia is the right thing to do we had to do that with my dog. I will pray for him.

Well today is th big day. Today I get the initiation into our pride basicaly on my 5th birthday when my mane is full I get a circle on my left shoulder and a scar over my left eye. It signafies me becoming a lion I will not be a cub anymore. The tradition dates back to my great ancestores Simba and Kovu. Simba who had mastered the Circle of Life and Kovu who had a scar over his eye. I review this knowledge and wait patiently for my baboon friend who is a desendant of rafiki to come and do the initiation. Speaking of him here he comes now. He starts off by heating a piece of metal and places it on my shoulder. I absorb the pain into myself, so that it becomes one with me. He then takes the hot piece of metal off my shoulder and places it on the ground. I glance at my shoulder The fur is gone in in a circle. The baboon then takes a razor blade and starts putting a scar around my eye. He then lays down the razor blade and says "leon you have been know as Leon for your entire life since the begining of your life you have studied the spiritual aspects of the world and understood the circle of life. You have cultivated well. As you know With the initiation you get a new name that name shall be Simha." He told me "I accept my new name." I replied. "Now It is time for your final test, You shall go on a walk about." He told me. "Where" I asked "America." He repiled. As I step off the plain I get some wierd looks after all It has only been like a couple of years since humans discovered the language of animals. To them it must seem very wierd seeing an orangeish red lion with a black mane walking around an airport. I dont pay them much attention and I continue to my destination the exit door. I find the exit and walk out of the airport into the big city. Right away I smell A whole lot of interesting smells. From the hot dog vendors to the bums sitting on the sidewalk. As I continue to walk around the city I see out of the couner of my eye a person holding what appears to be a gun at a woman. I walk over to See if she needs any help. Just then another person comes walking out of the alley, he point a finger at the man and make him drop the gun by heating up the gun with his mind. I relise this guy follows the same path I do. "I am caine I will get you to the nerest police station." Caine said to the woman. "Come along too lion I would like to talk to you." He demanded So I followed him and the lady. This is all I have of the story so far Anyone wana comment. I know my writing is bad but I felt like wrinting a fanfic about the lion king and kung fu the legend continues. Thanks

So I have kind of always wondered why Laotzu or the Buddha where never thought of as loonies? I meen now adays people try and start there own religion people think your crazy suicidle cult thing. What changed? What was special about these people and other people in other religions like islams mohamid?

Well The title was kind of a retorical question I dont want to start my own religion, Well i kind of do I would like people to stop worieing so much about labels buddhism taoism and such and see the similaritys between them. This thread has been very helpful in me learning about founders of different religions. Thanks

So I am kind of creating my own chi gung/hidden martial art based on the movements of a lion. And one of the movements is taking a bite of air/chi and i was wondering is that a safe move? Also is imagining yourself surounded by chi and plucking it from the air and putting it into your body harmful in any way?

We were part of nature then we got seperated but we can learn to go back to it. You can it just might take you longer to be in tune with nature. We left sometime ago some of us are still in nature but not all of us. Because our ego hardened. no all the forces. When we reach that state. yes You can observe any part of nature you like i prefer to observe animals. Yes they will all lead to where we are to go.

I have answered my own question. The food you eat has chi in it and you are surounded by chi all the time.

I was wondering if you guys would mind if i invited the people from meditation-mantra.org/alchemy and journik.com over to our forum? Thanks

Thank you all for your answers they have helped some. I kind of feel like i am beeting a dead horse but i have one more final question on this topic. Is there anything we can do to help the animals acheve liberation? Thank you all for your answers they have helped some. I kind of feel like i am beeting a dead horse but i have one more final question on this topic. Is there anything we can do to help the animals acheve liberation?

But did not the buddha say that animals have buddha nature so they could technically achieve liberation? Like the koan does a dog have buddha nature no a dog is buddha nature.

I actualy believe we are at the same level for most stuff.

Could one reincarnatre as a lion or other animal and help them? like tell them what to do so they became a human being and were able to become liberated?

I think i understand what you are saying, is that it is not the phisical manifestation but the spiritual manuifestation or soul that achieves liberation. But could a lion's soul do it or would it have to become human?

So anyone ever read the book varjak paw i found it to have some very taoisty elements. http://www.varjakpaw.com/

Well i have made it to job corps. It has been over just a day and i have been getting anixety. I do some taichi and that helps for about 30 minutes then the anixety comes back. Any suggestions on what i could do? Thanks

I should have given you guys an update I am doing really good What i realized is that thes feelings are natral everyone gets them at some point and when i get them i just turn my attention to something else like my breathing. Kind of like my meditation.

So I was wondering could one mix mantras like say om made krim shim or something like that? Also Does anyone know what mantra the russian guy is saying in the video of him melting cups? I know not to try this but i asm curious. Mabye if someone could also tell me some stuff about the mantra like where is comes from and how it is able to do that stuff? Thanks

So I was wondering what your guyses thought are on wearing diapers instead of a kaupina, the things hindu ascetics wear? I meen no offence just wondering. In my mind they would be better cause they are disp[ocible and you would not need to wash it or become attached to it. If this thread needs to be delted do as you will mods. Thanks Mewtwo

In my internet adventures I have come across this yoga. I would stay as far away from it as possible. I know the bullshido guys dont belive in chi but they do some good research. http://www.bullshido.net/forums/showthread.php?t=18606
