    Cat, I can vomit in your face. You are so disgusting.
  2. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    hank you Shanlung, I have read your post about wu-wei in your blog. Wonderful post. While reading it, I remembered Koichi Tohei, who died last year. He was 10th dan Aikido master, emphasizing the importance of Dan Tian, which he called One Point. I love his books. I did not practice any martial art, but I would like to practice Aikido. Of course, taijiquan is much more developed inner martial art. It takes years of practice to master it. Best Regards,

    You are not hostile. You are just controlled by Satan. No big deal.
  4. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Thank you Shanlung, Please allow me to correct one point. The person you mentioned is not the Haliph in Baghdad but rather was Ala ad-Din Muhammad II, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_II_of_Khwarezm). He was the ruler of Khwarazmian dynasty (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khwarezmid_Empire). Details of the campaign can be read: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongol_invasion_of_Khwarezmia). They were located todays Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Iran. They were muslim and Turkish. They were neighbours of Mongols and they of course knew their power. The raid on Baghdad was done by Hulagu Khan grandson of Genghis Khan, in 1258. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Baghdad_(1258))

    Cat, The problem is not ignoring Stosh and Viator. The problem is you. You are incredibly unfair.
  6. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Since you love Turkish food, you may do double standards and be unjust? Interesting affect

    Cat, There is no meaning to stay on this forum. You are defending Viator because a) He is Westerner, I am not He is Taoist (????), I am not c) His English is better than mine d) All of above It is apparently (d) SereneBlue, Do not ever make any arguments about my perception of double standards.
  8. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Stosh, Then tell me which line I crossed? You are also hostile to me anyway, answer me
  9. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Cat, Previously after Viator's report you have posted to me: And now, you are not posting anything against Viator although I am reporting him to you. May I learn the reason of this double standard?
  10. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Dear Shanlung, Thank you very much for your post. Actually, I could not find the notes of the speech between Genghis Khan and Qiu Chuji. I have read it previously in the website http://www.qiuchuji.org/index-eng.php However, The main page is active but http://www.qiuchuji.org/tale-eng.php address doe not work. So I could not copy the dialogue between the two. If you are a Chinese speaker, may be you may get it from the Chinese web site http://www.qiuchuji.org For this reason, I have written from my memory. I am sorry if I made any mistakes. But as far as I remember, Qiu Chuji has really warned Genghis Khan about his karma. I am Turkish, living in Turkey. Genghis Khan is also a part of our history since the initial tribes forming his state were Mongol and Turkic. However, Genghis Khan's armies have really performed the largest massacre and responsible of civilian deaths. In 1220, world population was much less than World War II time population. It is difficult to estimate but as a percentage, he may be responsible for the death of higher percentage of world population compared to Adolf Hitler. Especially, western Central Asia including the cities of famous silk road were massacred completely by his armies. Even his sons and grandsons continued this tradition and in Anatolia where modern Turkey stands, they did really big massacres killing muslim Turks. Finally, in 1256 A.D. Mongol armies killed the people of Baghdad and burned famous Baghdad library which is a crime against human culture. Best Regards,

    Cat, He is still offending me.
  12. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Dear Viator, Sorry. No contact with you. Your style of writing is still provocative ("You seem to continue to misunderstand the concepts that I tried to make clear to you earlier" this sentence implies that I am silly so I can not understand the concepts) It seems you know Taoism better than Grand master of Mo-Pai and Quanzhen master Qiu Chuji. Congratulations. Cat, Where are you? I did not mention Viator's name and he is still offending me? Will you keep your silence and continue to give undercover support to Viator? You were very quick to issue a warning to me? SereneBlue, Viator is still offending me. I am curious about your reaction. Am I right mentioning the double standards or not? Could you please change my perception?
  13. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    As a second example, I would like to replace Adolf Hitler with Genghis Khan. If you compare Genghis Khan with Mother Teresa. Genghis Khan has fulfilled his desires, he got the ultimate political power, he conquered almost all Asia. Thus, he fulfilled his desires. If, I am repeating, If (this is a conditional sentence) Mother Teresa has more unfulfilled desires than Genghis Khan, she should have generated more karma than Genghis Khan? A definite No! here. Genghis Khan is the murderer of millions of people. He has served his nafs and also served Satan. (Nafs as in sufism) He has generated much much more karma than Mother Teresa. The famous Quanzhen sect Taoist master Qiu Chuji has visited Genghis Khan 1220-1221 A.D. and warned him that he has generated lots of karma by ordering death of so many people. (http://www1.chinaculture.org/library/2008-02/04/content_24919.htm) From these two examples, you may understand that Taoist masters (real taoist masters) are well aware that committing sins generate karma. Bigger the sin, bigger the karma.
  14. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    I want to give a different example of committing sins and generating karma is correlated and generating karma is not a function of unfulfilled desires. As far as I remember, in the book Magus of Java by Kostas Danaos, the story of John Chang's master was told. He was from a village. There was another neighbour village and two villages were quarreling about water source as they have drought. Anyway, when he was level 30, he returned back to his village from the Taoist monastery to see everybody including women and children have been recently killed by the other villages warriors. Then, he went to other village and killed everybody like the angel of death. Kostas Danaos thought that George Lucas used this idea in "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones", Anakin Skywalker killing the tribe of Tuskens. When the master regained his senses after the massacre, he was worried for his soul because he has generated a lot of karma and as a Taoist, he knew the consequences. Now by killing everybody in the village, the master fulfilled his desire. eeee? He should not have generated karma? On the contrary, by committing this great great sin, he generated lots of karma. So committing sin and generating karma are closely correlated.

    Thank you for your support. You have a clean heart which is a very important asset.
  16. Wei-Wu-Wei, paradox unraveled

    Sinan, In my understanding Mr. Lomax is doing qigong not neigong. That is all I can say at the moment without further research.

    Dear Et-thoughts, You should read the works of famous sufi, Ibn Arabi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibn_Arabi) and Rumi. For Ibn Arabi, may I suggest: "Sufism and Taoism: A Comparative Study of Key Philosophical Concepts" by Toshihiko Izutsu (http://www.amazon.com/Sufism-Taoism-Comparative-Philosophical-Concepts/dp/0520052641/ref=la_B001IZ1D1G_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1350238008&sr=1-4) "Bezels of Wisdom" (http://www.amazon.com/Ibn-Al-Arabi-Bezels-Classics-Western-Spirituality/dp/0809123312/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1350238178&sr=1-1&keywords=Ibn+Arabi) Meccan Revelations" (http://www.amazon.com/Meccan-Revelations-I-Ibn-alArabi/dp/1879708167/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1350238445&sr=1-7&keywords=Ibn+Arabi) The discussion about Jesus Christ is very delicate. Remember that I have been accused of Proselytizing people. I do not want to cause any problems. I have already stated how we muslims see Jesus Christ. But this discussion should be made over Holy Quran and Bible not over prophet Mohammed and Jesus Christ. Please get an Holy Quran translation in your native language and try to read it. It is unchanged, even a single letter, it has been kept as original that has sent by God to our prophet. It is for every human being on this planet. Best Regards,

    Sinan, I am sorry, but who is Michael? I really do not know him? I can only say, Neigong, but real Neigong, can only be learnt from a real master who comes from a real lineage. There are many fake masters out there, claiming to teach Neigong, which is garbage. Do not misunderstand me, I have no idea about this Mr. Michael so I am not talking about him. But those fake neigong masters can really be harmful for your health. If you do not know what you are doing, just don't do it. Ä°t is especially valid for breathing exercises. Breathing exercises which say to hold breath or to close left or right nose etc, unnatural breathings will give you a nervous breakdown. Be careful. Even if you find a real master with real powers not just words, not cheap tricks, real powers, it is again dangerous as I mentioned previously. Please stay away from neigong if you listen to me as your elder and experienced brother. And trust me, my teoretical knowledge about Neigong, Qigong is much better than 90% of people in this forum. Best Regards,

    An interesting comment. First of all, ideas are formed by people. I have never seen an idea out of vacuum. Either a physical person or an astral being, all the thoughts, ideas are formed by somebody. In astral realms, all the thoughts turn into astral matter. So ideas are important. I am sorry but I will be offended if you say my idea is silly. Secondly, if just the opposite happened, if I had called one of Viator's ideas as silly, I am sure nobody would have defended me and I would have been kicked out of this forum instantaneously. Look at the situation, I am accused although I am right. Dear SereneBlue, please answer honestly, would you defend me in the exactly same position? I do not think so. I am sensing a serious double standard here. I hope I am wrong. I was interested in Taoism until 2008 (and I have no idea about the meaning of the term Taoist in a non Chinese society, so I say I was interested in Taoism instead of saying I was a Taoist) Now I am defending Islamic and spiritual ideas in the forum about Wei-Wu-Wei. Please understand me, I am sensing the hostile feelings of people because I am telling completely strange ideas to them. I can not let anybody to insult me, otherwise it will be a habit very rapidly. And also, my English is at primary school level as vocabulary. I can not express my ideas 100 % because of this. Best Regards,

    Dear Thelerner, Actually I would have stated Genghis Khan or Stalin, but I thought Adolf Hitler will be a better example for Westerners. I am curious if Godwin's Law still applies or not, if I mentioned Genghis Khan or Stalin? Thanking in advance,
  21. Wei-Wu-Wei, paradox unraveled

    Jesus Christ is one of the most important prophets in Islam. Of course, we love him and show respect to him. He is a great man. But we believe that he is not son of God. In order to undertand this, one has to look at prophet Abraham (roughly 1900 B.C.) He had two vies, Sarah and Hagar. From Sarah, he had the son prophet Isaac. All the Jewish prophets including Jesus Christ come from this blood. From Hagar, he had the son prophet Ishmael. Only one prophet came from this blood, which is prophet Mohammed. All the prophets are the one the same from one point of view. In fact, Jesus Christ foretold prophet Mohammed in Gospels of Barnaba (http://en.wikipedia....pel_of_Barnabas) They are not the same person. Prophet Mohammed is Habib (beloved, sweetheart) of God. As being the Habib, he is the one that have the biggest takva, being closer to God. That is the reason he is the last prophet and God has sent Holy Quran, the most developed book (which has remained unchanged unlike Bible) to guide humanity. The ET.s do not have the permission to intervene humanity. They had no role in the creation of human beings.

    Dear Cat, Viator has called me silly in post no 201 Definition of SILLY 1archaic : helpless, weak 2a : rustic, plain b obsolete : lowly in station : humble 3 a : weak in intellect : foolish b : exhibiting or indicative of a lack of common sense or sound judgment <a very silly mistake> c : trifling, frivolous 4 : being stunned or dazed <scared silly> <knocked me silly> — sil·li·ly adverb — sil·li·ness noun — silly noun or adverb See silly defined for English-language learners » See silly defined for kids » Examples of SILLY I hope I didn't make any silly mistakes. The idea does seem a bit silly. That's the silliest thing I've ever heard. You drove in this weather? What a silly thing to do! Silly me. I locked myself out of the car again. Ask a silly question, and you get a silly answer. “I can't ask you to do that.” “Don't be silly. It is my pleasure.” What a silly little purse. It looks too small to hold everything that I'd need to carry. I'm tired of watching silly movies. The book was a silly waste of time. I warned Viator not make insults in post 204 Viator insisted that my action is silly in post 210. I did not report it as an insult in the first hand and mentioned it in post 211: This time, Viator decided that I made an insult and said he would report me in post 214 Then I also reported his insult. Then, in the name of moderators you made the above mentioned post. First of all, as moderators, you have to be just. I am insulted by Viator and you have to defend me because I am the victim, he is the aggressor, not vice versa. You mentioned nothing about Viator's calling me "silly". So, according to you, Viator has the right to call me silly but I do not have the right to defend myself. Hey moderator team, be just, obey justice. I do not want any form of discussion with Viator too. So your above sentence is unnecessary. I did not provoke anybody and did not show any lack of civility. If you are accusing me, prove it. Show examples. If the moderators are unjust like this, I will not stay on the forum. Go ahead, make my day. Dear Cat, In order to be friendly, you have to like that person. Nobody has to like each other, you can not force anybody to like or to love somebody else. But everybody has to show respect. Respect has ultimate importance. Do I have to like Viator? No! Does Viator have to like me? No! Do we both have to show respect to each other? Definitely yes!

    Oh really? I am so scared? Do you have honour? Be a man to defend your own word
  24. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    Actually, I have learnt the meaning of Wei-Wu-Wei (the action that does not create karma) when I was interested in Taoism during Taoist discussions. So it is not my idea. I just gave the Islamic example which I noticed after being interested in Islam in order to support this view from another culture. However, it is not easy to change the views of people who have memorized something from books or internet and constantly repeating the same thing like a parrot.
  25. Approval seeking and Wu wei

    You have made a personal insult and you are not brave enough either to defend it or to accept it and apologize. Thus, this incident is not worth reporting. No one has the ability to see the hearts of Adolf Hitler and Mother Teresa, Thus your explanations mean nothing. I have nothing to understand from the views of a person like you
