  1. It annoys me when i see a practitioner whom is knowingly disseminating fallacies and littering other people's consciousness with bullshit.....just so he can prop himself up on a fake pedestal of power and knowledge.
  2. Newcomb, Runyon, and bardon.

    Nothing wrong with Demons. There just misunderstood.
  3. Sounds like you are poorly informed. Cheers.
  4. What are you watching on Youtube?

    Still gives me a laugh to this day.
  5. Enlightened movies

    There are so many important philosophical scenes in this movie and it has the rare combination of great action.
  6. Victims of Porn Industry.

    I think victim is too strong of a word. No one is forcing you to rub one out.
  7. As you grow in Gnosis, this knowledge that other people are doing dumb shit and unconsciously hurting themselves will only intensify. People need to live, touch the hot stove and learn from experience. Trying to protect people from themselves only delays there growth and disables them from true empowerment. Always be willing to lend a helping hand....but....ONLY IF IT IS SINCERELY REQUESTED OF YOU. It is deeply selfish of you to do so otherwise, as your are only seeking to make yourself feel better by helping those whom you perceive are making a mistake. Remember, we are all looking at reality through our own filters.

  10. How to prepare for imminent death?

    Meditate, practice qigong and write about what you want to do in your next life.
  11. My way to a new community

    Welcome to TTB.
  12. Looking for Taijiquan Competitions in the US

    The guy i mentioned before is an international champion in Taiji.
  13. MCO and Zhan Zhuang

    One of the facets of cultivation that is not talked about regularly is that "power is problematic". Opening up your channels can bring up all kinds of further issues and "inner demons" that you have to work through. I once heard of a Christian (the super fundamentalist type) saying that they tried meditation and thought it was "evil". These practices break barriers and are not necessarily always comfortable. If someone has a very rigid body and mind, it's going to create internal friction.
