  1. I wish I could, but don't have the time to party right now.
  2. Well, I don't think exactly highly of you either, so I guess we have something in common after all.
  3. Am I the only one who found the thread title hilarious?
  4. Heh, it's nothing compared to what I've seen on some forums in the past... You know, I can understand when some 12yo's believe stuff like DBZ, but when you've got 21yo's believing the same thing, I just don't know what to say. I still remember a part of a description I once read on one such site, for a supposed energy practice, "power up" or something, "now visualize black hair growing out of your back"... Magick is not so bad, but I mean magick, the kind of Golden Dawn, or Kaballah. Tarot can be very good also. It's not that these practices are BS, it's the new age appropriation of some of these practices that is. They require a lot of hard work and dedication, and most new agers, especially young ones, won't dedicate themselves to it. That would be quite stupid thing to do. Soon you'd have the forum populated with DBZers. Actually I didn't know they were still in existance, I haven't visited other forums in a long time. And I mean mostly martial ones, sometimes it was quite hilarious to read their stuff there. Oh and sorry, but I think anyone who equates Magick with DBZ stuff, doesn't know what they're talking about at all. It depends on what you give....
  5. "Special Abilities"

    Was RJ practicing safe sex?
  6. The Bell experiment

    Ok, so then you consider all current languages perversions of others? I was talking to Sykklepump.
  7. "Special Abilities"

    Right. My point was not so much about bad grammar, but about saying that you don't care when someone asks you to try to do better because they find it difficult to read your posts.
  8. Have you never had wet dreams while sleeping on your back?
  9. "Special Abilities"

    Then people reading your posts might think the same thing.
  10. The Bell experiment

    That's a pretty silly thing to say. It's like saying Silikonska Dolina is a corrupted form of Silicon Valley, but in fact it's just in Slovenian. That's funny, considering Bodhri and Nan Huai Chin are saying Zen is the best school/method.
  11. Teaching about Buddhism and Taoism

    Hm, maybe so, but no one will know you mean that if you say there is a spirit inside you.
  12. Meetings with extraordinary people

    Just a note, it's om, not oh.
  13. Cool search engine

    Haha, awesome.
  14. Teaching about Buddhism and Taoism

    No, I don't think I am awakened. But I guess that depends what "awakened" means to you. What does that mean? You created your own "Buddhist" teaching?
  15. The dangers of celibacy

    (how come there is no blush smilie hehe?)
  16. Teaching about Buddhism and Taoism

    Perhaps, because the younger you are the more impressionable you are. But the younger you are, the more difficult it is to stay with one thing. So unless there'd be a constant presence of teachings, it would wear out pretty fast. So you are awakened? And that is not Buddhist teaching.
  17. The dangers of celibacy

    I kind of doubt it.
  18. Greatest story ever denied

    Me too (which is kind of funny). Because if it is true, wouldn't someone else notice? Or does NASA control everything?
  19. anyone ever heard of this guy?

    LOL! Did you read the link???
  20. Dealing With Emotions

    Dealing with Emotions
  21. Beyond Duality

    I'm not saying that there is no such thing. But it's one thing to talk about it, and quite another to have actual knowledge, actual realization of it. And unless we have that, we have to abide according to dualistic ways and be mindful of karma, since non-duality is nothing but a concept. Saying or thinking "there is no duality" doesn't make it so. I think if you really understood non-duality it wouldn't matter so much if you live or die. You also wouldn't get upset so much so quickly about various things. After all, we could say what is there to be upset about? So it's quite obvious we don't have this knowledge in a concrete way. In other words, talking about non-duality doesn't do much for us. Because for all the talk about it, we still have to go to work, school, eat, shit, look both ways when crossing the road, be careful not to touch hot things with bare hands, and our mind and emotions run rampant controlling our lives and so on and so on.
  22. Beyond Duality

    Well you may be serious but obviously you aren't clairvoyant....
