This chick is the bomb, btw

you know it... im still more than a little drunk on all those memories...

Alchemy is the oldest tradition. It is the civilized form of shamanism. We've already discussed this at length. Its on the forum here somewhere. Something of note that might have gone unnoticed before is the fact that a world-wide seafaring civilization had already spun the entire globe long, long, LONG before the Sumerians caught the drift. Evidence is slowly coming to light. It should be fun to watch all that fallout, for sure.

Everything you need to know about how to orient a yin-yang for the most auspicious circumstances for you is already contained within this statement you have already made yourself.

The poison is the nectar. The nectar is the poison. This is from the tantras of transformation. Mahamudra is about something else. Dzogchen is about something else. Take a look. Or not.... Whitchever case it is, you can damn sure bank on it. (but only speaking in the vernacular, of course.)

Im loving all these responses so far. As always, quite enlightening. Quite educational. Quite, indeed. And now, if you will permit me to indulge myself...

Ringing a bell, ringing your neck and you know you're next because the time has come for those scarred wrists So close to the skin it sizzles - your sputtering safety flies on the wind, curling in smoke, drunk with dust Circling back one last time, no, this one is safe It's meant to be, it's a solid piece - security and locks without any key to be found, my time is here I've found the bastion, the last station of a toll road where you set up shop and took all the numbers but left them waiting in trenches - twisting in mud And now we know why revenge is on our plate and the service, sublime Choking it down at last call, last call

FTFY

Where do you think Chán Buddhism came from, homie? Have you ever read the Blue Cliff Record? Its absolutely saturated in taoist alchemy.

sway and sing and dance alone, together, again all of us are here
