And the pesticide are not the only problem: GMO in Corn. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/12/monsantos-gmo-corn-linked_n_420365.html Would be good for fuel but not for eating as well the problem of crossbreeding. As well some plant should not be eaten or used for oil like Rape seed http://www.rense.com/politics5/dare.htm as well they produce a lot of Methan which is more danger adding in the green house effect.

time to get live on light and love as main dish and became light and love. If it is about spiritual Vegetarianism then one has to careful choose the leaves and fruits the plant want to give, since these are the most effortless to pull from the plant. There is no real need to chop of the cabbage, since the greatest taste are in the outer leafes and the ripe fruits. If you eat those part which are nourishing you have to eat less. So you can avoid to not kill a plant. And for taking a plant then plant a new one on that place as learned from the spirtual lore of the lumberjack. And then one avoid not to use knife as it make the energy flow out at the cuts and if doing so one use a copper knife but not on the parts one want to eat which is learned by Viktor Schauberger. And if one do the plants understand and when they know what should be removed they withdraw the energy from that part. (If you are a lucky druid it charge a whole branch with its concious and lifeforce to travel with you, something like a mobile phone from trees.) And should learn from the movie "Little Buddha" when a new cinema is build in Tibet, to avoid the kill of worms the change from the raw tool using hand and smaller tools when digging holes. Have chicken for the coackroaches and ducks for the slugs to avoid toxins and feed them. And if you love your plant as I have when it has herbivore insects suck the precious bonsai like chilli pepper plant. I went out and collect 30 Ladybugs and put them on the 15 cm high plant and get rid of these invasion in a day.

It scratch different matters. The time is of 10 years has is observation, talent or not as part of qualification in a lineage. There is a saying that in 3 years one accomplish a small goal in 10 years a bigger one. There are things which do not matter "what you do in your life, how you practice, and how your body is." to reach "the minimum" It is that when you choose that lineage it is granted to have the development in "about" 10 years, more powerful say 5 years others would say 20 years. Not all system equal as you said that the individual are not equal. You point out the individual, I point out the lineage system.

Indeed, there is minimum to archieve within a system when one follows the teachers requirement time of training and do what he says. There is a lower border which never goes below. A least archievement else a lineage would not survive. One judge time by the least of what one can get. For fun one can talk about those exceptional. Even in the Wuxia those exceptional powerful are main characters but still you have a "Sect" a "Pai" with many followers who has the minimum of Qinggong, Gong Li, swordmanship and hand to hand combat. The best in the Pai makes it to the next Leader of the Sect when the charakter is OK and he ensure the survive of the Pai and lead it to greater glory. and more accepting in a Sect is to survive the first years those who can not manage the training leave, flee or are dropped out. There is a Hierachy of who is who. So one has to judge it on the Lineage time of expiriene of trained students to see a linear development all share and a point where talent starts.A talent who is lazy will loose to hard worker who is not so talented in that art. But he will definitley loose when the talent is work hard the same. And this is not even definite since the "Yuen" the chinese concept to meet and to learn and get shared things plays a very big role and I think in this reality also. Even with money and intelligence and talent one needs "Yuen" to meet a real teacher or one run into fakes and minors which is - Yuen with them..... Other again have the "Yuen" not intelligence, no money or even talent but they bound by destiny. Using time to judge one has to speak about the ratio in % also a lineage is improve if it not improve the generation failed to grow and its duty is pass as good as they can the lineage which was passed from the pre-generation. Confucius student never dare to change what Confucius said but wisely add comments. They know that human makes mistake and comments are asumption and that there maybe more talented people can win of the original, again they want to share the insights of their generation for the later to judge and prove. Same has been done with I Ching.

Depend on what has happend. Even there is 24 hours,7 days and 365 day count it do not match the Rhytm of nature. A half hour earlier sleep when watch on the clock can make a difference but on other day is again not good. The Sun is go down and up at different time even slightly changes of something big like sun is big changes for the small bodied human being. You have seasons, weather, the food is also not daily the same. And same food has a different quality. Then people are born with different unlocked potential. Some are stronger, bigger, short, high, weight. And especiall when you do something spirtual your sleep became a mess days 2 hours are enough other 20 are not enough (that are my extremes) 4-5 would be normal. When there is a change in the energetic system the system goes maintainace and one need more sleep. And there are times where you react weak and strong which make your sleep is difference. Earlier sleep is a thing that one has "the chance" to sleep until one "do not want" to sleep anymore "before you have buisness". Life has become commanded by the alam clock and a shedule. It would be wise to sleep and eat while watching the enviroment and oneself interact with the surrounding. One looks what is when needed. The Wise man consider humans are living beings and not just simple mechanical beings where one use integral numbers for calculation with the head alone to get the easy solution but doing on living things are would use PI and other endless numbers to calculate with in the head with a standard head and not of a exceptional. Wise man act arcording to the situation and Sun Tsu told that "planning too long and making the plans, the enemies are already at the front doors" = too late.

Your sensing has raised, the place has not really had significant changes but synchronize with you. There is nothing special from that place only your relationship with that place. I consider the place is low energy but it has build a special relationship with you. Seem to be rare to find a place that syncronize with you. Else tell the place to use the energy to clear the darkness when you see it and adjust energy for the individuals that are there also for yourself. Stay calm and ask the guardian of this place after calling it. When your sense raise at this place you will see guardian appear.

If you can not stand long do squats into the lowest comfortable position up and down.

he thought your were a strange looking big hummingbird. Animals are nice. Things we dream of that animals can understand us and we them. And they not fear if we are calm. There is also a wish to touch them. We humans have a strange relationship with other lifeforms.

No Energy = nothing happens. No sense = nothing perceived. Low quality exercising = low entertainment. In Qigong each session with the same Set one learns something new or at least have something to because one could perceive what has to be done, there is no waiting, it is maybe tiresome but not boring if one do it correctly. If you have no talent to learn from media go and seek a teacher as the the line between funtional Qigong and mere physical exercise is thin.
-
As well we speak about things we observe by doing this things and learn from those who observe the things they exercise. Knowing and not knowing is about had exercised or not exercised. And things are like yin and yang. When you reveal things it always tell what you know and do not know considering important or not important to tell at the moment.

Hmm maybe it is the myth of the the full time sleep. How about sleep eight hours and then stay awake and sleep some hours more?

Closed eyes cause the brain to produce more Alpha wave while open eyes cause to produce more Beta Waves. When one close the eyes and relax then one relax deep. When Eyes are open then there is a tension remained when one relax. The energy expands easier with Eyes open and goes inward if eyes are closed. This is why in ZZ one do like to use open eyes as one need alterness on the surrounding. The fun begins if one use this knowledge. As when one do sink into ones natural state, which is what one feel, stand, look express in the moment in the the natural state. It feels real. When one act on the energy of the moment the eyes will respond, as it is natura when the standing get tired one do look dull and the eyes are start to look halfopend. And when it is too hard one close and tense the eyes and all the face seem to be pulled to the eyes. If the energy is strong eyes are open natural while one relax. People who relax in general close their eyes more as the let go of control or even close then as the enjoy the moment. Then when energy runs it it will express in the eyes and the stronger the energy state the more awake they appear. This a back door describtion of why one not stand too long or to deep or too big for the moment of being. The master would say "Exercise moderate, do not strain yourself" (They not mention the eyes.....) The art is to have the same tension with eyes closed and open and be able to feel the difference and exercise until there is no difference anymore. This result in adding stability in ones breathing as well lessen the undergoing changes which eat up energy. This is easier to see the difference when on is tired. This is the time when equal balance of yin and yang as you like want to hear is gone. "With closed eyes get results of open eyes and to get with open eyes the results of closed eyes." "Neither sleeping or awake." Hopes this was enough expansion.
-
There are different energetics in open eyes and closed eyes not just awarness. Neither it is easier nor more difficult.

Nice to hear your answer Sirus. Which teachings these insights comes from? Are you say the same Jeremiah or something else in addition, since there are many answers?
-
I agree but :Why you think so?
-
Oh this, well... ones motivation before birth was indeed very good, but with birth - one want to go back to heaven. It is one of the things health practioner I worked with told:" That most of them which are here want to go back and so are in ungrounded in this life. They do risky things to shorten their life and provoke death: Choosing things that harm them and using illness as excuse ("Oh my stomach hurts teacher I must go home, I want to stay here ohhhh but I am so illllll!") Edit : A bit of ehm grammar as far as I can- in the moment Beside anyone knows the movies name where the protagonist die come into a place where they have sit on roll chairs? Also this was when they eat cakes and the women just take one spoon and the man said not thanks and get more and more cakes!

You can ask yourself:"Are you sure that is what you believe?" It may count for every people. What if not for you? Can you see those disembodied and discern them from the hallucination? Is it you who fears death, or is it the ego? What if it is the body who fears? You can ask many more answers. Still if you ask or not prepared or not it the same that you will die someday. Carlos Castanedea had said something of changing from organic to and anorganic beeing which live a bit longer 10.000, 100.000 someday if will die and the eagle will take them. Look for example on the Raider Tarot. The Death is a black knight on the horse which if you know have now to look into all symbolism in the Tarot Deck the big and small Arcana for its meaning to be knight. And the 4 people in front are a child,priest a women and a king. Each present one set of way to confront death. The priest prepared and with his believe stand straigtht in front with praying hands, while the child is joyful bringing flowers. The King lay down beneath death looking defeated and the women is looking away. And the interpretation can go more in depth but I think there are greater specialist here to talk about this Card. Its a greater question how the thinking of your own death affect your life as Carlos Castaneda said something like having the death as an advisor.

I do not know. As when ones own death comes then one can reply to this answer until then many things change. When one die then it is already to late to be prepared or not. Also ones sees. If you not earth bound then your were ready, if you are earth bound then you are not. Die and we will know.
