Lots of giant Humboldt squid were actually washing up on OC beach yesterday. These swarms were actually great for fishermen, though! Anyhow, this morning, I got: A headless Delilah dancing her dakini dance as blood from her neck spurted out everywhere.. My speculative interpration: Mythologically, Samson was a heroic defender of Jews against Philistines, gifted with superhuman strength from Yahweh due to his Nazirite vows. So, the Philistines bribed his lover, Delilah, to find the secret of his power (his long hair) and have it removed, which she did. Rendered powerless (until his hair regrew), Samson was then blinded and imprisoned to do hard time in Gaza. In modern terms, "Uncle Sam"son defends Israel against the Philistines (Palestinians). "Uncle Samson" (neocons?) are a NAZI-right who derive their powers from NAZI-rites (taking blood oaths & performing ritual sacrifices? ). However, might have they been weakened by some "Delilah" figure/group/movement and get "blinded & embroiled" in Gaza as a result, now? And if so, will "Delilah" get "beheaded" for this, creating a big, bloody mess as her "body" of supporters continue to "dance?"

I would say California is a great example of tyranny of the masses. They suck up most of all Federal funds...yet are also the deepest in debt. How does that work??? See Pelosicare, Solyndra & their new bullet train (much of it Federally-funded), for instance. I'm guessing the only place that actually had direct democracy recently was LIBYA (before US/NATO invaded to "liberate" them from that!):

I "got" an image of a "dark rainbow" in your brain and you having a "Medusa complex." My interpretation follows: The "dark rainbow arch" may represent your fornix. "Fornix" is Latin for arch and is also found in the deepest part of the vagina. It is the root word for fornication, because prostitution used to be advertised under arches. Medusa symbolizes extreme wrath (with a deadly "evil eye" gaze) due to being unjustly punished for fornication (getting raped by Poseidon) out of jealousy (by Athena)! Sooo...perhaps you are unjustly punishing yourself for fornication on some level, here? It may then be that your gaze is not "evil," but anger at some perceived miscarriage of justice?

Very interesting explanation, thanks! What is your teacher's system and what are his own qualifications (like, how much of this has he achieved himself and what positive results implying so do you notice in him)? IOW, how much street cred does he have to support his understanding?

Ya, the large goateed Japanese guy is his star student, Kan Sasaki. Also seen (partially) here: The shaking is spontaneous qigong working through large blockages that can be activated or amplified by another if they are receptive enough. Given all the epic debates here, I'm surprised that there are still regs who haven't seen this yet, lol!

Interesting, so it appears like their ranking is based on a hit counter, not sales? I wish they'd have an actual sales counter too! Well, that blows! Even with considerable MSM visibility, you still haven't actually sold enough books to pay back the advance. Wow, what a tuff biz! Anyhow back to the OT, I got an image while dreaming this morning of the Statue of Liberty turning into a skeleton and crumbling and dropping into the sea...

Actually, that was LBDaoist's argument, not mine. I personally believe that external kata-based kung fu & karate are often impractical and thus will not overcome size & speed advantages. The question here was if IMA can beat MMA? Which I believe is possible as I believe qi can beat size & speed. However, "simply" rooting and opening your MCO are significant milestones in neidan/IMA - that are in reality very difficult to achieve alone. But which IMA is worthless without that type of internal development. So, the number of legit IMA masters are verrryy few and far between. In fact, most people of that caliber are more likely to go into healing or purely spiritual pursuits than the ego-battle world of ringfighting.

This old guy knows, but will not show.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHCovU3lkHA And this is more parkour than real qinggong, but check out the drops at :44!

I agree!! As clearly do many other wise Taoists! Reality is, we are unavoidably paradigm-shifting from selfishness to self-reliance now. From passing the buck to dealing yourself. From freedom to responsibility. Of course, Leftist, atheist Crybaby Boomers will go kicking & screaming into this transition - even though it was half their own fault! The irony is that they childishly want the Government to serve as their God, because they don't believe in "God." Yet still feel the need for one (even though we're at least $15 trillion in debt now!!). So, their list of bankrupting Socialist demands read like wishlists to Santa Claus.. "I wanna PONY Santa, WAHHH!!!" But if these atheists want to find "God" so bad...maybe they should just go join a local church instead? This is 1/2 of the problem. The other half is neocons who are also bankrupting us (financially & morally) as the NW0's global stormtroopers. Therefore, the LOGICAL solution is a 3rd Party candidate like RON PAUL who transcends both these arms of the NW0!! Who wants to cut back on BOTH Socialist enslavement and offensive PNAC wars!

Your book is currently ranked 731,918. I'm just curious approximately how many book sales that equates to? Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands? Meanwhile, a book about pee is at 3,793. Would you have any idea how many sales this equates to? I'm kind of wondering how many books you'd have to sell annually to make a decent income? And how a brand-new book on urine can rank so relatively high?

It's extremeellyyy easy to defend yourself against a takedown with a sprawl. In fact, it's nearly impossible to take someone down who keeps sprawling back on you. While at the same time subjecting yourself to far greater risk of getting beat in the face or guillotined. I think they just happen so much easier in MMA because opponents often don't resist. In addition, they get paid to fight and not dodge in the ring. Plus if he has grappling skills, he won't mind getting taken down anyways, as that is not an automatic disadvantage to him. Which in many cases, may even work to his favor. Now, if your opponent gets a lock set on you, then at that point you are pretty much f*cked, lol! There's no easy out for that! Anyhow, as far as "Eastern qi" vs "Western muscles":

I actually saw this in a dream recently. Unfortunately, it was only a dream... AWESOME explanation of "double emptiness" my friend!!! Thank you so much for this wonderful explanation and dialogue!!! *standing applause* So, basically there is no (inherent existence of) subject or object and both must be transcended.

"The source field is the source of life, it is not random Darwinian mutation. Charles Darwin's father was a 33rd degree Mason... Darwinian evolution very conveniently removed the idea of a higher power. 'Oh, it can all be explained by random, it's just bunch of things knockin' together, there's nothing divine in the universe at all, you're just gonna die and that's it, you don't exist anymore.' Well, I don't believe that." - David Wilcock ( )

Here's what I saw: A cow head-on with an exasperated look on its face due to its body being bloated like a balloon. A red, roasted pig being jabbed and carried up on spear points. I heard the phrase, "wind internal." Then, a small bird flew overhead and dropped a feather on you, that spiraled down like a tornado as it fell.. Now, here's my (one possible) interpretation: You've overblown your sacred cow (spiritual dogma) with overreverence. Bloated dogma filled with hot air is actually no longer sacred. Meanwhile, you have an underlying conflict between your spiritual aspirations and animal nature. You believe that you can't have both and thus must "disembowel" your animal nature. This is symbolized by the pig - both hungry and filthy like your digestive tract. As a result, you are attacking it with the (false) belief that you'd essentially be more spiritual without your dark, earthy, "gluttonous" digestive tract "full of sh*t" "holding you down." But at this point, a bird drops a feather on you to remind you that even animals can reach "Heaven" too. A feather contains both animal & Heavenly natures. Therefore, you don't have to choose between that false contradiction anymore. It could thus be used to help fan the "internal wind" out of you.. And possibly on a more mundane level, lactose intolerance might be causing you bloating and pork inflammation, lol?

What are "fatigue flows?"

Ok well just for kicks then, here's a few random thoughts that crossed my mind after reading your post last night: I saw a lobster by your heart. (This could perhaps symbolize your heart being soft, but hard-shelled - with "claws" that could be snappily-defensive, attacking or "clingy?") I saw some large, colored geometric shapes, like an outdoor children's playset. I saw a zipper opening and closing in waves.. I heard you frustratingly repeating, "You may not hear me!" over and over as you kept pushing phone buttons in desperation. Finally, I saw a deep tray full of snails being carried by someone. Again, the crustacean theme, lol.

Actually, you can access FB with a VPN in China. And there might still be some old pics on here somewhere for an actual comparison, but it does look like his skin has become noticeably smoother, clearer and more youthful from what I recall? I mean, I'm guessing he's somewhere in his 40s now? Anyhow, I would definitely check out the Longmen Grottoes & Shaolin Temple if in that area. You can even hike up to Bodhidharma's Cave where he faced the wall for 9 years there (I think it may be about a 3-hour hike from the main temple, though)!

Your Dad lost his job/faith in God/himself and was outraged at and disowned himself for that. You were merely an external reflection and convenient proxy target for his own internal "crisis of faith'" So, you went out and sought your father's unconditional love/full acceptance that you were now denied... But eventually, you came back around to seek it closer from its source. What you have to realize though, is that your Dad is not even the real source. What you truly seek is your own unconditional love/acceptance from yourself. Again, your Dad's conditional unacceptance is only a reflection of your own conditional lack of self-acceptance. Meanwhile, your Dad is secretly plagued with doubts about his own faith and is actually thus so desperately trying to convince HIMSELF of his own beliefs, not you (per se).. The cool thing here is how each of your issues naturally feed the other, thus creating an automatic feedback loop.

Youch! Better develop your body of light then, buddy!

I AGREE 10000%!!! Unfortunately, although Ron Paul is the real frontrunner who actually places first (or a close second) in all the straw polls, the MSM continues to cover him up while promoting NW0 muppets like Perry or Romney as the "legit frontrunners." Who all stand strong with Democrats on the same core issues. The only difference being that while liberals will also focus a bit more on Socialist overspending at home, the neocons will focus more on overspending on PNAC preemptive military offensives abroad. So, I think Ron Paul would be the ideal Libertarian POTUS to prepare us for the new sobering AUSTERE AGE OF SELF-RELIANCE. NO MORE FREE-SPENDING BABY BOOMERS!!! You've totally depleted all your funds as well as that of the next 3 generations and so WE'RE ALL AZZ-BROKE NOW, GET IT YET??? Time to cut up your $50 trillion credit cards, cry babies!! Other fringe GOPers could serve in more limited, specialty capacities like Herman Cain as economic advisor and Michele Bachmann as a feisty cheerleader.. Anyhow, as far as measuring poverty, you also have to take into account different demographics as well as state DEBT, etc. IOW, a state heavily in debt is actually far poorer than one living more austerely but actually WITHIN ITS MEANS. And it just so happens that most of the liberal blue states (particularly California, Illinois & New York) are heavily in debt while conservative red states (like Texas) less so. So first balance the books and THEN measure poverty! Well, we all know that liberal mecca Calibfornia is severely BANKRUPT, so that's a great example of where Socialist welfare states end up...(now extorting a giant Bailout from the rest of the country in the form of Pelosicare)!

Ya, I'm amazed that book could be ranked that high on Amazon when there is absolutely zero proof for it, lol!! WTF?? Who all's buying and/or trying it??? Anyhow...here's one interesting "believer"

Well, this is really the only true desire. The rest are all subconscious means towards that end. For example, some self-inquiry of your "laptop desire" revealed that what you really wanted (through that means) was for your heart to be at peace...(which could still even be a means for an even deeper end!)

A drifter can go everywhere, yet not get anywhere (in life). A master can accomplish everything (in life), without going anywhere. Ultimately, it all depends on you and how you utilize your experiences.. I would personally seek a good balance of the 2. Dabble around enough to find your way, then work on building upon it. Overall, I would agree that software coding and healthcare appear to the hot, growing fields of the near future.

Ya, balancing Heaven and Earth can always be a tough act, lol.. Things are also changing alot with college lately. Only a decade or 2 ago, simply having ANY college degree guaranteed you a decent job upon graduation. But nowadays, that may only be true for select "employable" majors in more "functional" (not merely academic) fields like science, medicine, CS, law, etc. Meanwhile, universities can cost like $10K-$50K per year now. So, you really have to look at it as a HUGE investment in time & money now. Personally, I would only go to college for an "employable" major now. Forget all the fluffy liberal farts crap - unless you can just afford to blow $100K for stuff you could learn yourself for free on the internet, lol! And look, let's face it. The Baby Boomers overspent all your inheritance and so you are now coming in at the bottom level of their pyramid scheme. So, don't expect too much help from the Feds or other public assistance in the future. We are entering the age of self-help, self-inquiry & self-reliance!
