I desleep myself. Honey combing hive mind head. Wild hairs grow unseen.

It was called "the rebellion" but Star Wars was just a bunch of stolen ideas to begin with, even back in the 70s... Ive already pointed out a part of the script in the first movie that were directly plagarised from Castaneda's books, when Obi-Wan is describing "the force" to Luke.. and then there was the Lensman series of books that came way before Star Wars, with the psychic-powered laser sword wielding super hero good guys (the titular Lensman).. and the war of Good psychics vs Evil psychics and so on and then of course there is the fact that the main movie plot points are lifted from Kurosawa's "The Hidden Fortress" and the character design based on Joseph Campbells identification of the trinity of "Hero - Shadow - Old Man".. and on with the whole "i am your father, luke" business and all of that So it seems strange to me that you would be surprised that a sham-"religion" derived from a sham-mythos would be anything other than a total sham to begin with. Or are you just trying to inject some reality into their situation? Im just wondering if an entirely unreal sham-"religion" is a fertile ground for such growth. It seems highly questionable that a situation which is entirely based on fictional fantasies taken out of context in such a way as to present the maximum level of "acceptability" or "marketing potential" would even be able to accommodate actual reality to begin with.

Everyone has some really good points here. So many points. And they are so good. Really! Keep up the good work, everyone.

Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid Step out of line, the men come and take you away We better stop Hey - what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down...

"It's just as if a man were wounded with an arrow thickly smeared with poison. His friends & companions, kinsmen & relatives would provide him with a surgeon, and the man would say, 'I won't have this arrow removed until I know whether the man who wounded me was a noble warrior, a brahman, a merchant, or a worker.' He would say, 'I won't have this arrow removed until I know the given name & clan name of the man who wounded me... until I know whether he was tall, medium, or short... until I know whether he was dark, ruddy-brown, or golden-colored... until I know his home village, town, or city... until I know whether the bow with which I was wounded was a long bow or a crossbow... until I know whether the bowstring with which I was wounded was fiber, bamboo threads, sinew, hemp, or bark... until I know whether the shaft with which I was wounded was wild or cultivated... until I know whether the feathers of the shaft with which I was wounded were those of a vulture, a stork, a hawk, a peacock, or another bird... until I know whether the shaft with which I was wounded was bound with the sinew of an ox, a water buffalo, a langur, or a monkey.' He would say, 'I won't have this arrow removed until I know whether the shaft with which I was wounded was that of a common arrow, a curved arrow, a barbed, a calf-toothed, or an oleander arrow.' The man would die and those things would still remain unknown to him. "In the same way, if anyone were to say, 'I won't live the holy life under the Blessed One as long as he does not declare to me that "The cosmos is eternal," or that 'The cosmos is not eternal'... 'The cosmos is finite'... 'The cosmos is infinite'... 'The soul is the same thing as the body'... 'The soul is one thing and the body another'... 'After death a Tathāgata exists'... 'After death a Tathāgata does not exist'... 'After death a Tathāgata both exists & does not exist'... or that "After death a Tathāgata neither exists nor does not exist,"' the man would die and those things would still remain undeclared by the Tathāgata... "So, Māluṅkyaputta, remember what is undeclared by me as undeclared, and what is declared by me as declared. And what is undeclared by me? 'The cosmos is eternal,'is undeclared by me. 'The cosmos is not eternal,' is undeclared by me. 'The cosmos is finite'... 'The cosmos is infinite'... 'The soul is the same thing as the body'... 'The soul is one thing and the body another'... 'After death a Tathāgata exists'... 'After death a Tathāgata does not exist'... 'After death a Tathāgata both exists & does not exist'... 'After death a Tathāgata neither exists nor does not exist,' is undeclared by me. "And why are they undeclared by me? Because they are not connected with the goal, are not fundamental to the holy life. They do not lead to disenchantment, to dispassion, to cessation, to calm, to direct knowledge, to self-awakening, to unbinding (nibbāna). That's why they are undeclared by me. "And what is declared by me? 'This is stress,' is declared by me. 'This is the origination of stress,' is declared by me. 'This is the cessation of stress,' is declared by me. 'This is the path of practice leading to the cessation of stress,' is declared by me. And why are they declared by me? Because they are connected with the goal, are fundamental to the holy life. They lead to disenchantment, to dispassion, to cessation, to calm, to direct knowledge, to self-awakening, to unbinding. That's why they are declared by me." — Cula-Malunkyovada Sutta

Many things are possible. However it is best to realize sooner rather than later that the free flow of energies in the subtle system is rarely a commonplace occurrence without a good deal of conscious, active work at that level. In other words there is a definite amount of dedicated, living engagement which is required to engender the full depth of total harmony in terms of energy systems. Keep in mind that harmony is a function of cooperation, interplay, and resonance between various vibrations. Its a bit like sailing a boat. Its not necessarily like building a house - but sometimes you do have to build the boat first. Sometimes you can use what you already have on hand. Sometimes you can find one laying around, etc. Again, many things are possible. Just dont forget about the ocean, the wind, and the stars. Certainly some people are born with energetic facility to different degrees, but extreme examples tend to be rare - and most importantly the healthy exchange or free flow of such energies in the greater system of cosmic correspondence is not guaranteed as an automatic ongoing process. In fact the automation of processes is the central hub of the issue regarding energy exchange to begin with - so it must be personally dealt with regardless of whatever natural facility is provided by the various bodily configurations which arise at birth. Many have gone astray, many have remained true. Its just the same as those without such natural born configurations. The point is that when it comes to the actual work of internal alchemy (or conscious evolution), its pretty much an even field at the end of the day. In this regard, the conditioning process which people go through as they develop into "responsible adults" within our society has numerous implications in terms of the subtle energetic system - but to make a long story short - modern western society in general certainly doesnt support or encourage a healthy one. Along the way of fitting into this society, most people develop various kinds of unhealthy crystalizations of various energetic processes. Crystallization of energy is not an inherently non-functional state and in fact is required at certain stages, but when this occurs according to the dictates of a system which is itself inherently lifeless and degenerative, that very same systematic dictate plays out at the personal level and those internal structures themselves degrade automatically. At a certain point, the atrophy of these energetic structures becomes effectively permanent, and in a sense that part of a person literally dies - sometimes well before the rest of their physical body passes away. The proper crystallization of energies according to the dictates of a living evolutionary process is another story entirely - and that is the purview of internal alchemy. When you embark on a path of self-cultivation and begin your own practice, you will almost certainly have to deal with these kinds of issues at some point. It may take a while to uncover, it may not. As long as you are engaged in a practice, the chances are you will eventually come point where regeneration is required. It may be at such a deep level you never conceived of to begin with - or it may be right on the surface level... or it may be both. Typically there tend to be cycles and waves of digging deep into resistance, then stabilizing your freedom to move, then going deeper into other forms of resistance, then stabilizing again, etc. Over and over. Again and again. Growth and evolution are not an overnight process, although there are certainly many "tipping points" along the way. And eventually you will be dealing with things much larger and more involved than just your own life, at this time, in this place. The internal free flow of energetic process is a function of life and death and generative awareness, and in time this internal process itself may be able to eventually decouple from the earthly biological system in a productive way. However, there is an essential period of incubation and growth which must occur within this Womb of Gaia before such freedom becomes possible (not to mention functional). The natural order is supportive of this kind of evolution - in fact it is specifically designed for it - but in general our modern society is not supportive of this and for the most part is entirely unaware of the possibility to begin with. The most fascinating thing about all of this is that the very resistance provided by the aberrant social aspect of humanity can provide yet another fuel for this endeavor. Its just another kind of resistance training. Its almost like lifting weights. Its not the only way to do it - but its certainly possible to get the job done with such methods.

Its not a new idea, of course...

My man.

Its like breathing. Its like living. Its like dying. Is the air coming in or going out? There is a cycle to it. There is a rythm to it. There is a pulse to it. And if you find that the spirit moves you, you might just be the one in the way.

Ahh yes... but for which species? Thats the eternal question isnt it.

Somebody's actually been paying attention! Good show old chap.

Dont bother steve - he's too busy with college classes and stuff.

shit... problem solved!

words are words. fact.
