Spiritual Literature - To Read Or Not To Read
RiverSnake replied to adept's topic in General Discussion
As long as you are complimenting your reading with real life daliy practice (meditation, chi-gung...etc) then i think its ok. If your just reading and not practicing then you might as well be a hamster spinning your wheel and you will not make any "progress". -My 2 cents, Peace -
I have learned almost 90% of the 24 form from this guys youtube videos. They are very well done. I just have to learn the last few motions. -My 2 cents, Peace

I would either ride a horse or a camel. Both are smart, funny and would probably make for good conversation. -My 2 cents, Peace -

As of late i have been struggling with these kind of attachements and i have found these kinds of emotions can be quite the challenge. From your statement basically your saying if i continue to cultivate then these things will eventually solve themselves? Edit: A note i am fine and comfortable by myself...but i have noticed that when i am around the opposite sex it can trigger some pretty intense longing and suffering. -My 2 cents, Peace

meditation with aneros(prostate sex toy) to unlock kundalini?
RiverSnake replied to dc9's topic in General Discussion
If you would actually like to unlock Kundalini you should go to a KAP seminar. My understanding is that this is something there methodology focuses on. Sticking a toy up your ass to trigger kundalini doesn't strike me as an intelligent way to attempt this.... http://kundaliniawakeningprocess.com/ -My 2 cents, Peace -

A better question to ask is "Why is my own life in harmony? or "Why is my own life in disharmony?"......If you can understand this then i feel you can better understand the problems and solutions for man in a macrocosmic way. -My 2 cents, Peace

When you have a strong will or lots of charisma it becomes natural for you to dominate any particular situation...one should always be conscious of whether your acting out of egotistical reasons instead one your deeper wisdom. -My 2 cents, Peace

If you practice Chi Gung regularly such sensations will become normal. Its no big deal -My 2 cents, Peace

Stop jacking off,,,,.you'll have so much testosterone flowing through your blood if some one crosses you again you'll feel like ripping out there guts and strangling them with it. People pick on those whom are weaker than them and they know wont fight back.....the simply solution is to make yourself strong....there are many ways of doing that. I reccomend a combination of Chi Gung, Pumping Iron and doing some Public Speaking. -My 2 cents, Peace

Compassion is a great thing. However there is Compassion.......and then there is something else called "Idiot Compassion"........... It is a very important distinction that should be made for the vast majority of people. A couple good links on the topic: http://www.shambhala...rs/pema/qa5.php http://mettarefuge.w...iot-compassion/ Which category do you think your Compassion falls into in this case? -My 2 cents, Peace

In the past i toyed around with TRE for a bit. I also practice a bit of spontaneous shaking now and then when i feel a bit rusty....and ofcourse i also practice S-M. IME all three seem to me quite different practices. -My 2 cents, Peace

My understanding based on my readings (not experience) is that you should cut it every single day for 3 days....and at the same time not think about that person or you can risk getting it re-attached. If you already tried this and it didn't help then the only other advice i can offer is to give it time. Also based on your post it seems that you have a habit of attracting these kind of destructive relationship partner's to you...that's probably something you should investigate for yourself and your future relationships In regards to handling women and yourself in relationships.....one of my favorite books is Way of the Superior Man. I highly reccomend it. -My 2 cents, Peace

Listened to both of the podcasts. I was very impressed by her humility and heartfulness. She also comes across as someone with very deep knowledge and experience in her field. -My 2 cents, Peace
