  2. Gong for the hands?

    Try to see exactly what is causing your problem. Check your posture while you are doing what ever you are doing as you haven't been specific. Look for tensions and areas that are being pressed by leaning, holding, etc. Also see if you are agrevating it when you sleep. If it's carpel tunnel you might try using a brace of some sort while you sleep, if that is the case, temporarily to allow it to rest and heal.

  11. Dao De Jing, 1st Chapter - 老子:第一章

    You cannot name the unnamable. You name it - you make it less than it is. Names are rough guides to the truth.
  12. Am i a "taoist"?

    They often call me speedo but my real name is Mr Earl. Probably before your time
  13. i will be gone for awhile, perhaps forever

    offline and online
  14. I like it. You might wish to include something to the effect - all discussion and practices are welcome which enhance physical, mental, or spiritual quality of life.
  15. When you went to the doctor for whatever reason in the first place were you not intervening in the natural course of things. I too distrust doctors. Some people here have had success with or know of alternate approaches. It is not ones karma to do nothing - it is a choice - it is not karma. If you try and it doesn't work - well then that is your karma. Taoism is not non action. It is doing from your center - action from your center. Doing without doing is non ego. Not doing can be ego. Not doing without understanding is doing - is intervention - is ego.

  18. Thyroid Nodules

    If you see him let me know what he says. He is with the American Natural Hygiene Society listed on their professional referral list.
  19. MSG

    I immediately get abuzz in my temples.
  20. You never had a choice.

    If there is no free will then I no longer take responsibility for my actions.
  21. Selflessness and Competition

    Being selfless does not mean being a wimp. Wanting an apartment is not the same as being competitive to be better than someone or winning a game. That's making it personal and ego inflating. To want an apartment which someone else wants is fine IMHO. You apply for the apartment but just because someone else applies does not mean you are in competition. Only if your mind sees it as a competition is it a competition. If you apply for a job there are always other people applying for the same job. Will you become a bum? To be selfless is to take other peoples needs into consideration and give to those in need. If you have more than others you can give something but keep something for yourself. If the other person said look I really need this apartment. I have no where else to live and my sick mother lives next door. You might say well I don't need it as much as he does and withdraw.
  22. You never had a choice.

    Some of the best directors let their actors express themselves and even suggest things that work better in the film/play. Maybe our script is you are born - you die - the rest is up to you. Land on Boardwalk - you either sell it, buy it or go to jail. Otherwise it might be pretty boring for god or whatever.

  25. Thyroid Nodules

    You might look into fasting. It could be an option. There are doctors who treat in this manner where appropriate. If you let me know where you live I might know of a doctor in your area. Don't jump into surgery unless it's really necessay.
