No I am in London which is very variable, weather wise. This week the sky has been, variously, very high and sparkly cloudless clear, and low and glowering grey. At the moment the pavements are mulchy with fallen leaves and the trees offer many coloured leaves. It is not very cold most of the time, really, but there is often not a lot of light around, the shortest day is rapidly approaching. If I were a saint.. what would I do? What would you do?

*strokes beard*

Oh what a good idea.

Ha. You actually said it. Excellent. I dont think it is frightening or dangerous. I think it requires explication and standing in the light.

the urgent help you need is in your stance in relation to kundalini. what benefit can you glean from having your pragmatism about sex hijacked?

Nikolai thankyou for your answers. yes. And the point in what I mentioned wasnt that the person was a priest and it wasnt a point about religion that I was making. Nor was it a point about celibacy. It was about the radical statement you quoted from Augustine. It was about the implications of loving God giving one vast licence. and thankyou for your post about dependant origination. I have had felt vision of what you describe, I know it from the inside and have seen it. I was told that my vison of this and knowing this, was only the first level. I wonder what the next level is.. I think it is something to do with stabilising the move away from the literal and integrating the awareness on all levels of being.

I dont like tents all that much. I dont want to be a brat and I dont want to hold onto dreadful stuff.

how does this work. it is more than possible for 'love of god' to go hand in hand with severe mental health issues and belief systems that constitute threats to others. catholic priests abusing choir boys an obvious example. does this mean these people do not actually love God.. or are we back to it doesnt matter what you do?

so you assume.

interesting phrase

I hope he does. Because he has a lot of stuff in those sacks of his.

I wish those brats would just shape up. Well there is a way which is right to find the ppd and it takes you there, so in what sense could it be the wrong way?

( Idk how to do the 'spoiler' thing y'all use? ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PceqPkTdYgA

its ok to be realistic about oneself.

what if there are brats who just want things to be easy?! they have to choose the right way to find the ppd.

I agree with you about the non - agentically option. I would love you to write about the two perspectives combined and make no sense. I feel it would make more sense than writing about them seperately. Things falling away.. so much falls away. But will everything? I feel the same way about writing as you describe. But if I am in love the desire to create comes back. I think of that as a function of Eros. How would you describe it?

There is too much that I would ask and I cannot formulate the questions meaningfully enough.

I have to chime in that I know a fair amount of freemasons. They arent at all fat and are not at all dodgy and they surely arent all men.

I do agree. I think it actually a very unhelpful link.

This is absolutely correct. To depict "qigong" as a bowl of porridge, on a board which is in large part devoted to serious analysis and sharing of different systems and goals in cultivation is really just ignorance which can be remedied by further reading, on this very board. I also have worked with SFQ and 8 brocades, and have the same experience as Seth. SFQ is far more powerful.

hmm, I havent noticed that.I have noticed my bed gets incredibly hot under me.

not so, and some end in cul de sacs, others are unnavigatable, others are toll roads, others wish to personalise their route, some are unambitious travellers, others wish to travel the world in 80 days. If not, lets just all keep quiet, and all do the same thing.

Your assertion 'better' is solely based on financial considerations and yet you dont make this clear, that in no way is this an informed comment re. content.
