The Green Tara is a god in tibetan buddhism. It's one of the beginning practices of tibetan buddhism. I thought this was a hindu practice when I first saw it. She looks like a hindu god, I didn't even realize buddhism had various gods (There goes my ignorance dammit! ) I used it a couple of times last night and it puts me at peace. It's supposed to rid you of fear, anxiety, and unhappiness. You can't beat the beauty of this mantra either.

I used to feel it in both of my temples. Now I feel it in my right temple, and the whole left side of my brain goes numb at the same time or something like that. Idk. Anything significant about it?

Money is just a modernized way of hunting for a meal. I abhor spirituality that preaches against money. If you want to read a good book on money read 'Richest Man In Babylon.' Free on Google. Best book I've ever read on the subject and it deals directly with the subject. Very clear principles.

An akashic record reading is good for getting an understanding of your past lives. You can also connect to it yourself which can be really fun. A genuine reader can put you on the right track. Then you can check them for yourself to confirm. That's a subject I have always been curious about is past lives. When I had a reading done one of my most memorable characters, was I was told I had been a pirate in a past life. I almost didn't take him seriously until I checked it myself. All you have to do is connect to your subconscious and keep your conscious mind from interfering. I saw this middle eastern looking guy. Not what I was expecting for a pirate, but that's a sign I was on the right track. He had this scimitar which I thought was a middle eastern weapon also, but then I later found out scimitars were commonly used by pirates.

Oh that's a baseball player. What a funny funny name. I thought the guy was trying to sell masturbation jerseys.

Well, at least this is relevant spam. Much better than some bullshit about tug mcgraw jerseys

Incredible post, I'm glad I read this. I started trying to keep my mind empty last night and I love it. I noticed when I do it while meditating the time goes by very quickly. I also noticed this morning while trying to keep my mind empty, that I can more easily see what is arising with no thoughts to distract me. It's even fun to practice.

NICE! That's an excellent achievement. I usually just sit regular cross legged, but it gets to be hell on the outward protruding ankle bone after a while. I'm inspired to start doing some of those stretches. You learn the stretches from Youtube? I saw something on that a while ago, but at the time I didn't really think much about it. Shit like this is inspiring and deserves a thread of its own. Otherwise it gets lost in all the bullshit of big threads. Fuck the haters.

I noticed the exact same thing. When I would meditate or practice tai chi I was able to wake up easier/earlier without a fuss from my body. Sometimes when I would wake up earlier I noticed that I felt different but in a good way. That stopped happening for me though. I guess it could have to do with how I trained myself.

What you just said right there is surrendering. Waiting for it to pass is surrendering. It's not a magic pill that is going to take anything way. You'll still feel pain, but you accept that it is there. You won't be wishing for a different circumstance which leads to suffering. You do what you can(Like taking painkillers), but you ultimately can't do anything and have to accept whatever comes. Even if you don't accept it, it is still going to be there. It doesn't mean that you are not going to feel the sensation of pain though. Surrendering is acknowledging the fact that you are completely and utterly fucking screwed to whatever circumstance you find yourself in. Some things you can control and some things you cannot. Surrendering takes away the burden of having to change something. I saw this video a while ago on pain and it is about surrender. Maybe it will help you, maybe it won't. Whatever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rkJnFzTRIY Kind of an odd synchronicity that he talks about dental pains in the video though.

I've seen this before, but I didn't get as far last time because I saw they were a cult member of Desteni. I made it to 1:48 this time. I'm not going to let their propaganda brainwash me. I stopped after she started talking about the 5 year old girl getting her leg blown off and that the 5 old should not surrender to what is. Worst advice you can give someone. That shows me she don't know what she's talking about, she just wants to say what sounds good. No matter what seemingly deadly situation you find yourself in you should surrender. You go blind...surrender You're paralyzed...surrender You lose a friend...surrender You have a chronic illness...surrender Your leg gets blown off...surrender. If you can't grow a new one, then hating the situation is only creating suffering. If you can't change what is, then you are only creating suffering for yourself. To hate the situation you find yourself in is ludicrous when you can't change it. Might as well accept and surrender. Surrendering is good for all situations. Good for all ages. In my opinion, the video is bullshit and that's because in my experience the power of surrender is a very potent practice for anyone. To discourage surrender is telling someone to suffer. It can make you have good days for months weeks straight.

I had it happen once. Nothing to prompt it, their energy just shot through my mind, and I had this overwhelming feeling they were talking about me.

I finally understand that saying, "Love your enemy." I always thought that was the stupidest saying in the world because I didn't understand it. I guess that's the problem with all sayings. Never accept them on blind faith. Come to your own understanding of them. The problem with hating your enemy is then it brings that negativity into your own energy field. It makes YOU feel terrible, and life is to short to spend it mired in negativity. The biggest revenge ever, is to spend your time loving your enemies because then they have no power over your mental state. Real positivity makes you feel amazing and care-free. That's a much better way to spend your time here. Being happy. I just had what's called 'ormus' and here's my review...amazing! Really good for meditation. I'm feeling so peaceful and calm right now. It's supposed to enhance your chi along with other things. You can buy it on ebay off of a guy named morningseedlings. Really cool dude. I bought the alchemical full moon formula way back in late june, and he was still willing to help me figure out how to use it after all this time. I feel so lighthearted and care-free right now. When I first tried it I wasn't expecting much. Today's my first try. I noticed how my nose had completely cleared up, and I still have a completely cleared up nose after 30 minutes, lol. Anyway. Feeling awesome. Really positive right now. That's enough from me.

I find the picture requirement size RIDICULULOLOUS how do you fit that freakin size?

Here's what I'm currently listening too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN2jlfwnkeM&list=FLHfaIU_WfqDuAPwWUhLFU9g&index=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwfnd5jcGoY&feature=BFa&list=FLHfaIU_WfqDuAPwWUhLFU9g&lf=BFa

Yeah, I meant the person. I was already aware of the Tao Te Ching forum. Outside of the Tao Te Ching, I know practically nothing about Taoism. So you meant the writing of Chuang Tzu. I thought this was a forum where we were studying the person Chuang Tzu. Although, I thought it was it was funnier than heck how people kept calling him 'The Chuang Tzu.' Now that I know you mean the writing, that makes a lot more sense!

Just out of curiosity, will there ever be a study on the forum done about lao tzu?

One of the mental aspects that I've noticed recently, is that I keep having these old conversations playing loops in my head. They're always really negative, and I'm not sure how to address this issue. Any help?

I wish I had read this earlier. I tried to do concentration meditation out in the woods, and I kept getting these irritating conversations seeping in. It reached a point where it was too distracting to continue meditating.

EDIT: Do not read the comments until you've seen the video or you'll ruin it for yourself.

Damn, I missed almost all of it.

Just curiuos how it's helped you, and how long you've been doing it, and how long daily you do it? Dank ye

Dream yoga is one way.
