http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/15/kansas-democrat-andrea-ramsey-drops-out-house-race-over-2005-harassment-suit.html no charges were brought and the case was dismissed in 2006. still comes back to haunt it's getting messy out there. at what point do we segregate the men from women in the work place? is that the direction we're going? doesn't seem socially progressive to me idk

Is this a Buddhist thread? I don't see any bums claiming to be Enlightened on a level of Buddha. I look at a big E type of enlightenment and some little e types. There are bums who do attain the little eās, imo. Maybe Buddha attained a one in five billion level of Enlightenment, and perhaps there is a one in 5 million, one if 50,000, one in five thousand, one in fifty...At Delphi, there were deities, oracles (Pythia), and Gaia herself. Plutarch wrote about the meaning of E at Delphi, on the temple is inscribed a large E. The command of the gods "Look into yourself, know yourself, keep to yourself; bring back your mind and your will, which are spending themselves elsewhere, into themselves; you are running out, you are scattering yourself; concentrate yourself, resist yourself;" or to be pithy, "Know thyself." There could be a level of enlightenment that is one of one that is worth attaining.

Yet, Enbridge is going full force forward with the pipeline.

Recommended: animated short film on the current state of tao in the human world
zerostao replied to Taomeow's topic in General Discussion
I see this as an excellent portrayal of current society and state of humanity. My only refuge from such nihilist thought has been to abide in tao. I think there are many who have an awareness of what's going on around us. I think if more meditated every day even for a short time to cultivate self-awareness it would result in a type of self-defense to the onslaught we're all being bombarded with. I deleted my reference to nowhere to run or hide with the synthesis our brain undergoes when determining to choose fight or flight. At the rate of acceleration society and humanity are continuing down this corporatist path, try and imagine where we'll be in five years, ten years. -
