  1. Genuine Schools

    A good question . It is the rule of preserving the status quo. Everthing that is not status quo is not secure and seen as foreign and then flee, fight or freeze in the situation. For some people it is normal when one hug one feel loved and accepted, others feel that is strange since one feel nothing, and I feel rarely something from someone when I get hugged, just a strange cultural procedure. So someone would have love and show it in a hug and not accept as it not understand as love. It has no meaning for oneself. One hug other out of courtesy. An most people understood while hugging the whole group they avoid it as they can feel it. Also dogs feel this as well they would jump all over when they meet other people when they meet me they became still neither hostile nor overjoy, but more aware and they love when I stroke them falling in peaceful trance, they know I love stillness by other beings children alike feel it at and get more serious than acting childish in my presence, they sure get very curious about me but they do not went crazy, they even stop in their wildness. When one compare this with most average people arent this blockages? In seeking love outside I never get the love I seeked from other humans I always felt this artifical love, the do as if "I do accept you". I find peace when I am alone. I havent met many people who really emit love only people which act as if they are loving, acting out of duty to love as parent, as friend, as someone from a group, from a nation, from a race. So this why I agree with Rumi that one has to dissolve ones own barrier. One is selfresponsible for everthing that happens. So from the semantics which word would be unconditional? It seems you know a more proper word for the spiritual viewpoint. So do you think we need this body we have now, since we dont NEED food? Also I think I miss the "WHEN we have no EGO aka being in the state of responsibility to do the task which are ours and not of the EGO." Also how you know you Dont NEED food is also from the EGO? Having EGO is good to deny and refuse an dualize matters and does not eating food makes on more spiritual than vegans, then meat eater, the all eater? Me thinks not. And what are we doing? Where is the selfresponsibilty always pushing the fault "the ego the ego" it is oneself who allowed it. It is oneself fault. The ego is part of you. Dont make the leg responsible when one decide and jump into the cactus. The Ego is like the Tiger the Deity are riding in hindu religion, a cool mount which is not meant to be a mount, a predator who helps to take to whereever the place is. And the Genuine Schools are the same cultivating character and EGO is also in there to that it help on cultivation. As when two goals not match one has a chaos and one improve 1 step forward 2 step backwards like a crab, this sabotage. better have EGO as friend than an enemy. As when there are enemy, when are they friends? And even if it is your enemy when you share the same goal you will cooperate.

    Finding a good teacher is something difficult as from expirience and from expirience by others who run 30 years around (I befriend often much older in the past, since they are better to talk, have developed the concious, finding young people.... you want me to play the lottery and win- waste of money- gamblers like to say they feel the luck? People like Milarepa. This perhaps are story of people who had make it into history. History do not talk about losers and victims in a documentary they are not the main protagonist when they are not relevant in the developement and story of the "winner" And each of us is not directly Milarepa, some really search like one of my Uncles to believe in immortals or wonders for 40 years and he was riding China up and down as well Vietnam and for some kind of reason he not find the wonder he was seeking for only recentyl on behalf of told by my father that I may do the same mistake he told me to stop everything (well I cultivate at that time half of interest and half because my Chronic Fatique interferes with my life) so my father told about Sifu Joong (forget in which US State he immigrated) a friend and both were than telephone with him. And I would if I accept become the only student of him in Bagua Tai Chi Chuan - and he refuse to accept others. (Rare lineage, can be read at martial arts exeperts.com or so. Well Uncle Phan has then vist Sifu Joong (no school, work on the roads), and he is prone in is Fighting Skills in Hung Gar KungFu who can lift with one arm 4 tires of a truck and still likes to fight in his age. But well seeing Sifu Joong perform Tai Chi and use "Sheng Qi" moving things around call wind, Uncle Phan compares him with Jet Li in Tai Chi as being more impressive. And he not dare to spare with him. Well meeting the wonder he seeks after 40 years with out seeking is different than his 40 years active search and this man only fear to look old! It is that you may just run around and let go that the teacher may scout you, because he saw you in a dream or had been told by the spirt world to look for signs. Else like Sifu Joong remaing quite not even sorrow that the Art level of the teachings is lost to a new generation for already rare lineage, just doing his job as a steet worker doing the roads instead of opening and make him known trough the states by participating in contest - no- just humble work and humble genuine exercise. And giving me an offer and here I do not "put in the effort to find your teacher and genuine teachings", I did was I did and still I have not put my ass over the seas and spare my money for stay there for a while.
  3. dude wheres my orgone accumulator

    I am sure Owledge that you do not want to throw in radioactive substance into an orgonaccumulator - well Reich had the problem with Deadly Orgone- DOR blackening of stone, and die of trees and so on. From orgonite it is something I have from seeing sometime that it emits a dark blue cold energy and one can use it to push it trough the body to cleanse the body to an extend.

Thanks in forward Q p.s to the mods : Is it possible to stick this tread since the amount of posted pages has reach a reasonable number and I think it is in quality as well in quality qualified to be sticked.
  5. Genuine Schools

    You know that Confucius say a lot of thing, Buddha said a lot of things, me sayed a lot of things. It depends how you use it it is the basic of rhetorics of how interpretate things. Since you said "family and country" are "extensions of Ego" the goal I see in Confucius saying is to work on oneself as Country and family are mathematics where you derivate a function using differential and integral. Also I key I see in Confucius is one has the power by changing oneself one change the enviroment. It is like some famous theory which name I repressed about a butterfly making a wing clap cause a tornado somewehre in the world. And also I interpret that ones action is move a lot in the universe.
  6. Genuine Schools

    This words have much essence! This also counts for the genuine schools. They have to start somewhere and were small at there time even not as developed compared to time where there disciples bloom and produce famous authority. At that time they also did not know much as to meditate, pray and concentrate and body discipline and with time the perception expand and there was knowledge retrieved and because of circumstances of time, space, focus and personaliy this and that school was created. And it was changed by later generation fusioned with other while other seperate into subsects. The schools high level are similar as I heard so I add that there base is as well the same even some look more exotic than other. All the world have and had the spiritual lore are the tungus, naguals, Shamen, Borkor, Atlanteans, Pleiadens, old or new.
  7. Genuine Schools

    Beside the discussion of genuine or not genuine schools. Are you guys qualified in stillness, concentration and still body discipline, the ethics, hard work? Would be bad to be ignored after taking into the school, as they can take you in and take their time to teach you, as everyone can say the will work hard, give their best and swear that they do it. You can be part of a genuine school but do they teach you someone they would scout for or do they teach someone who is begged for? How many I see here in the bums tell after a year of giving tips and asked for sitting full lotus say "I have not practise it for while" or ask again. Asking for Mo Pai and legs cramp after 10 minutes and you know the vague from Magus of Java to sit one hour. Again I meet some who actually sit 2 to 4 hours regulary on forest ground having child, go study and is married, this is I call the right discipline and work ethic. I was told of one of my teachers in the long long past that he welcomes every one as student but not as disciple. Have you reach this minimum to be a genuine student to access a genuine school (those who have the "beef")? A genuine school do not want to teach trash student who has not reach the little that is teached in public. The whole foundation is free for access - go and become a genuine student and the universe provide what you need to progress. The same and the same attract each other. If you seek and do not find you are simple not ready to receive what can be given.
  8. Genuine Schools

    +1 I gave. This are the words I share the same view with. It is that one learn a method how it is done in the school and when one understand what is teached one can use it in a different way on different things and expand the literal teachings into situation based solutions. One gain the "secret methods" when one really has exercise a sudden small enlightment and see the teaching in a different view. When one has the perception of greater awareness then reading a quote of a master is like free treasure world map with countless places to dig and gain. Indeed this is also a logical argument which practical happens. But selling Junk is something which has a nice thing that it has to appear like something precious. Remember that on the Junkyard is a chaotic place with old memories shattered in pieces. Because the whole car or ship do not work anymore some parts does, the materials are copper, aluminium and other useful metals. There are parts that can be repaired or one find funcional parts which can be used to replace something that not work anymore in the functioning machine. And one can learn about the history and the build of those parts to recreate what was there. Confucius said something that the later goverment imitates the previous government. When the ideas exist, they came from somewhere with a source which is real or was. When it hasnt then it comes from other places and there is also a place where the spirits have great influence and try to put as much truth into as possible as the intent of a faker is come near the truth and as much fake as the dark beings try to avoid this to happen. The great problem is to find the mistakes to make it become genuine and more effective than that time it was created. I am aware that there are schools over thousands of years and something that is such old and still not work is still crap and there are schools which improved and changed becoming different than their orginal source. I heard a story about a guru who did sacrfices and was deep into the state to reach the deity. A women who was busy to cross the river and saw this mahaguru ask for help.Because of his busyness he harshly told her to recite: Rama Rama and cross the river (and man he was talking BS as he just say something that she stop pesky him). Well the women was grateful and did what he says and well.... she walked above the river. The guru turned red and did more sacrifice because he understand his impudence.

  11. What is the difference of a vessel and channel in this discussion from your view Joeblast? I also read from Donna Eden that DU and REN are some kind of Hybrid sharing Meridian and strange flow function (extraordinary vessels)saying strange flow do not follow specific pathways (as Meridians does). Also this strange flow belong to an system which can be found in insects and primitive arcording Donna. The flows are more diffus then concentrated and react on thoughts and mood more like communication channel and energy "jump around". Back to DU and REN they are somewhere between and able to "transport" as Main Meridians do. One can read in the Internet about having add DU and REN to the main meridians and having 6 extraordinary and then other saying that the count into a 8 extraordiary. One has also have to look into the Hua Tuo points they share the same strange change of start in the ealier on the spine then became between the spinous process. Here I have a interesting chart with side channel http://www.lieske.com/channels/5e-gc.htm Edit: Looking at this give me also thoughts http://www.meridiansofacupuncture.com/The_Spinal_Subluxation_and_its_treatment_by_Acupuncture.html Look at the black spots which are not Bladder points

    There heavens above heavens and human above humans. One can consider lucky if even a shard of something what is useable one can get into the hand and make the best possible use of the moment. You talk about real FS can you recommend real sources? Book,Media, Websites? Also this statement says that you have been come into touch of the real FS.
  13. What it runs in both ways the same time..... uhhhh wow how does this channel manage that.
  14. Feng Shui

    nope. People like to believe what is general know, taking this as fact. If they read the same fact in 10 different books then it become fixed in the head. One stop asking if there is something different. I had for example thought in the past placing bed here and there and hang this and so one would be the only solution. Later there was then energetic Feng Shui mistress who sealed things in the room because I had nightmare and I am very suprised about what she told. She even found a hollow place in the wall. Very small behind a cupboard. She said darkness is invading from this place and there was a secret. I was very suprised as 1.She never saw this room before. 2. The cupboard was before the wall. 3.I do not know that the wall was hollow. She places a half gem there with a charge to pacify. At other times with a other client she found the solution to alcohol addiction in a house finding a secret chamber with stored alcohol of a previous owner. The addicion was gone. She said that she never touch the cellar if one is not the owner of the house because it take very big changes and affect all people. Without agreement from all this is not allowed from her lineage. As well a other things is not to raise a vibration to a level of the weakest member in the appartment. Well she is very good in seeing the energetics also do healing, work with gems and juwels. So this I find very interesting as it directly touch the energetic problems. And there was zero move of furniture. Seeing such level I would not dare to give a consultation. (some tips maybe) me is still need lots to learn and I know my place.
  15. Absolutly not. The Sushuma is more likely the Zhong Mai and I talk about strangeness about the the Ren and Du. At least you try to understand which is good. This DU is strangely in most chart on the middle line above the spine but in the book I own "The Way to Locate Acupoints" by Yang Jiasan I strangely found that the Du shifts with "Du15 Yamen" running at the side of the spine in the spinal process while in the most chart like the one you posted the point are on the spine when watched from above. Also if you look carefully in the chart you post the point Renzhong below the nose is in the lower chart directly on the midline below the nose above the philtrum in the above chart the channel is shifted as well the point renzhong more the side below the nostril but only show on one side. As well very strange is this rhombic formed field below the C7 Spine. It result in the question of how broad the DU Channel actual is covering both side of the Spine it would be belong to a very broad channel. But from the chart one can not see if it is one channel -that only prefers one side -Fixed on side -Is build up from 3 Channels one in the middle and 2 at the side. (This would get very interesting Chang as it would appear to strangely build like the tantric ayurvedic system.) - Then there would be the question if it flows straigt up or move up like a coils. - This difference would mess with guide of Qi in MCO. One imagines the Qi should run in the middle up but in fact the DU is shifted to the right side, then the success is not very well as one guide it on the wrong places hit the acupoints but thats all. Pretty difficult to move Qi in a MCO if one can not feel where the channel is. As well if it runs circular how it the numbering explained- Du 1 start from below near coccyx and ends 28 in the mouth above the front teeth, well Ren 1 start at the perineum and ends below the lower lip. Generally a Meridian is numbered in a way it would also run in the Macrocosmic Orbit in the body. From 1 to Endnummber. The Ren and Du seem to avoid this rule as all end in front of mouth like to be breathed in than do a circular flow.
  16. Feng Shui

    Emotion are affecting the surrounding as the surrounding affect you emotionally. It renders your appearance and so attract and influence your choice. In Feng Shui Space can be separated into a Bagua with certain interest like Health, Creativity etc and corresponding assoziative Items like a pair of Dolphin or something else. The objects are reminders in most time, the more important and impressive they are personal, the greater they create a emotinal state and make one interested into such things.The rules as above so below as inside as outside runs here. For example if one is angry and can tune into oneself then one would find specific things more comfortable but would nourish this anger. While in peaceful state this things would be avoid by all cost. So having a specific concept like health in mind one is tuned to this lifequality and make choices which direct ones into possibility to nourish the health and it depends on oneself if on is aware enough to take the offer. This how incomplete I can describe the standard Feng Shui effects.A nice object is as well to distract the mind and stop him to give energy to a dark and gloomy thought which would create some non ideal choices. Thinking back and forth is a sort of awareness concentration. Feng Shui has also the concept of Qi and Changes and I guess it is something where the things get more interesting. The influence of placement of something. And here things starts with talisman and charged objects with intent and energy. A room can as well be charged by the repeated thoughts and emotion and energy - rituals. So this why there is a need of cleansing a room energetically. It is something also very interesting when one place energetic charged objects things somewhere, depending on where they are there influence is more or less. And above all this ,a room can also be changed energetically even permanent which is not so easy. And something one should not forget is ones character beside the natal charts. One itself is as well a Feng Shui Element a thing in a room. One of the chinese things is to incooperate one concept into all area of life to have it cover logical, poetric, fantasy, politial, religious,daily life, martial arts, relationship in speech, thought and deeds. The chinese saying is "To learn one and understand ten" are words for this concept. So saying that it is psychological is not correct as the old traditions still share that all science belong together. Feng Shui has the psychology but it is not psychology alone.

    You do not really believe in Qigong you believe in Breath work. You do not really believe in Feng Shui so I assume you believe in Psychology.

  19. Hi All

    Now you join with official name, that is ok.
  20. Hmm it was Sinfest vs the Taobums now it look more like Sinfest vs the Taiji Bum. I hope some people test and reach remarkable results. The problem was never to reach a certain state but to make it reproduceable by others.
  21. Vegetarianism

    Interesting. Monster corp beginning was producing saccarin. In the past I had organic chemistry in my study and toxicology and saccarin is fastening up cancer and now recent use is Asparatam as food adding. Seeing this the Monster corp also produce chemical weapons for WW which are lasting. Also there is a hint that they try to monopolize- especially the recent years they bought a lot of companies. This is as same like the big companies in the game industry did. They bought the smaller companies and some creative energy is lost because of the danger in democratic votes - the loss of the minority. If it is open vote it is also the expose of potential enemies. These either one can influenced to agree, compensations, threat or turning them into antagonism. Fusion and separation is also very dangerous thing. It appears to be to avoid monopolism but art of war is to fusion to infiltrate a company and set the important position with the own men. So one do not need so many, but disciplined heartless zealots. This is how a small handful of people control so many. Seperation seem to split the monopolism- but this part is already infiltrated and then do cronysm. Seperation only occurs when the name is already get tainted by product and already too many are informed and know to avoid. Gentechnical changed biological lifeforms are potential danger of use as biological weapons. So this has to be judged by the standards of the military laws on biological weapons. Using widespread test on civillist of own or foreign city without their agreement is already law breaking.
