Take only what you can carry and give the rest away.

Great post Ron! "Only a warrior chooses pacifism; others are condemned to it."

"To keep my post at least semi-"on-topic", let me say that I find the serpentine allusions in early Mesopotanian religion and Zoroastrianism to be helpful in studying the parallels in the Abrahamic faiths of Judaism & Christianity." LMAO

Don't worry about the finer points.....hop on it's going in an hour! Everyone is welcome

Vajrahridaya - the opposite of love is fear. I thought it was indifference ?

Maybe the Serpent represents the duality of Good and Evil? We can clearly see the dual nature of the Serpent throughout all of the Religions and Mythologies. It can be positive or negative, destructive or creative, Take your pick?

Maybe a more effective action would be to stop using the stuff?

The best thing for an argument is not words and ideas, but to stop arguing!

I like your response! Especially: 'The new age minister above was not wrong, but his timing was off. She needed practical help right then, later, perhaps some perspective.' -It's important to make sense, find meaning and to try to learn from life's hardships, it's only when your coming out of the tunnel and don't see yourself as a victim and begin to reclaim your personal power that you can begin to see the bigger picture. When someone is in a full blown crisis they can't see the wood for the trees. I agree it's all in the timing!

If you want to develop punching power...i say drop the pushups and spend the time practicing uh...... your punching speed and technique! The real power is delivered in the final inch or two of the motion - "one inch punch" For that devastating punch you'd better train your legs cos it's the muscle power anchored from the ground up that is transmitted through the shoulders and arms that delivers the maximum power.

There are some real concerns here on this thread. Having too much money to the point of only spending time managing and making money, reduces the time to improve your personal potential. Taoism teaches money and attachments are symptoms of ego that distract and prevent a person from finding enlightenment. Instead of worrying about what you may lose, try looking at it in a different way! I reckon you should give all your spare cash away now while you've still got it! Do this and you will profit with a sense of worthiness that money can't buy, Just think how good you'd feel? Better than losing it all in the possible oncoming financial meltdown, Surely. My perspective. Take with a pinch of salt!

Your humble servant. Thanks

Try making fun of yourselves it's fun? Ridicule is only harmful if you give it your power. Laugh and see it for what it is....entertainment!
