Forgot to mention Huperzine A is not a narcotic. What I was saying was it could be a viable alternative to taking harmful narcotics. Only take it if needed. In healthy people the results are unpredictable.

Professional Help. Seriously. He needs to get referred to a Clinician by his primary care physician. After that, then he should explore additional options. If that is not an option, it takes longer. It may be years before he learns to trust people and situations. The extra high dopamine levels cause the heightened awareness. Please review Huperzine A supplimentation with your primary care physician as psychotics can wreak havok on the body. Your primary care physician will know to do the needed tests to see if heightened acetylcholine levels would interfere with the high dopamine levels. At least it would offer clear thought. Supplimentation without supervision is dangerous. If what I am saying is not the problem, how could you be sure Huperzine A would work? Only a doctor could determine this.

Neither do I. Just wanted to make that clear. I also wanted to say that Zachariah Stichen when he was still alive though Ickes theorys were dubious. Though I know that is a tender subject for some on the forum I have no qualms saying that the reputable ancient alien researchers disagree with Icke. Of course it should be no shock. Icke's story is based upon wild circumstantial ideas. Dont get me wrong it is very creative.

Ive always view this as an energetic change rather than a physical one. There are some groups of people that viewed the 2000-2012 period as a time of increasing energetic change. I am sure the reactions of people in general on an emotional level most likely have to deal with the increased energy. Mankind is changing and becoming more conscience oriented twords doing good. It only makes sense that some are fighting it. Beyond armchair theories if some disaster happens I would not think it is just due to astronomical events. We create this reality just as it exists right now. Divorcing our involvement in anyway would be an act of pure ignorance.

Everyone knows that the aliens are already here, right? Or am I just a part of a select few that know this?

Wisdom can cause attachment. Hypothetically, it doesnt make any difference to me if I live or die tomorrow. People may miss me. As for intentions, it is so easy for us to say: "Look at what Joe did! That means he is trying to overthrow the government!" No, this forum is becoming like a gossip forum and it is time to stop. I enjoy speaking with someone as emotionally understood as you. Flys to vaseline. Flys to vaseline. Metta -

Wisdom means nothing to the deceased. From your post I get the distinct impression you have an understanding of how people consider what is said. Or how people can misunderstand or take offense to words. To draw out finer qualities in people. So to explain, when you hold people to a higher standard they do the following: 1. Take offense, pick a fight or allude/insinuate/engineer a misunderstanding. 2. Sulk. 3. Rise above it by showing their better side. Ignorance causes 1 and 2 to happen. Given, not all people will rise to the occasion. It is a way to find out peoples motives. Once they find out some do mimic number 3 but weeks later they go back to the same thing they did before. I am glad that there are. Harmonious Emptiness and Sunya have shown some good qualities. With what Harmonious said I see there is still hope here. We cant control how people act I understand this. If we can agree on that we can put this behind us. -

I have to adjourn from this topic. Personally, I thought I was helping in trying to shed some light on what I thought would be what is causing the problems. The only buddhist who was able to give a viable response to the 3 questions was Harmonious Emptiness. I think he deserves a medal of somekind and has astounding amounts of compassion as does Sunya on good days. This is a compliment. My concern now is that people who supposedly defend themselves, or state odd things could have their words now twisted to sound like they are provoking other members. My heart goes out to everyone involved. Until a way can be found to completely resolve the infighting among the neobuddhists. I say neobuddhists because being taught the main tenets and dharmas is an intregral part of being buddhist. Until some way to amicably get along is achieved. No rules can truely prevent it as well because there are also some buddhists which only follow some of the rules as well. I just dont see the problem going away. Perhaps following the old rule of ignoring attacks and only asking questions twords those who are non-buddhist and attacking aspects of buddhism is the way to go. This "policy" in buddhism has existed for a long time. So, in saying all of this. I would have to say that the problem runs a bit deeper than all of this. Buddhism is supposed to be a religion of truth and anti-ignorance. I can't agree that some of the ones that profess to be Buddhist hold to that. Attacking people or antagonizing them only adds to their suffering. My concern is also for Scotty, because this makes Buddhism look bad. Sure it is rough to follow Buddhist rules, so is following the light and avoiding darkness. -

As of yet, no one answered by questions. Are there no Buddhists at all? -

Well I am not sure why I noticed this topic or was drawn to it. Personally I am not anti-buddhism. I am just curious as to why people are "acting out" on the forums this way. Is no one just happy being happy? People have to make others miserable to feel happy? I think thats the problem here and it is consistent. -

How many of you Buddhists became one at a temple? How many of you Buddhists became one at a temple? (Evoked the 3 question tenet of Buddhism). If you are Buddhist, you are supposed to reply. If not, then I guess that proves my point. -

How many Buddhists here became Buddhists at a real temple? I mean misrepresentation I hear is a big deal. -

Ambrose_Bierce replied to Aetherous's topic in Forum and Tech Support
Just to clarify, to be buddhist it is my understanding that you have to become one by going to a Buddhist temple. Just believeing in Buddhism does not make you Buddhist. This is not some mean elitism made up to trick you. Plus there are tenets. I dont see anyone following the dharmas here. If I am misteaken about people following the dharmas, please point it out. Additionally, my final observation is that you have to be a TEACHER to discuss anything Buddhist if you are Buddhist. Otherwise I believe there are consequences for breaking tenets. You can't compare VMarco's personality to Scotty's. -

Is it the political base? All the Western Buddhists would be angry? Is that why? When is it TOO much? It is understood now. Seth Ananda is untouchable. -

I think Buddhism here is kind of iconic. No where else are so many tenets forgotten. Guess I could be in Asia, it doesnt make the situation any better. There they search for younger and younger followers generally taking infants. In jest I refer to the Jedi. But that is not the case here. I think it is funny that so much self-improvement and smoothing over of relations happens in Eastern Buddhism... Whereas western Buddhism others have to "just fucking deal with it". Anyone who is a Western Buddhist care to answer? -

From what I have read, Scotty seems to have more of a grasp of Buddhist teachings than the so-called buddhists. This is from past posts he has made. I know it hurts when the truth gets out. If I make a few enemies saying all of that, so be it. I shouldnt take that kind of thing personally, but this is a bit different than someone claiming they know more than anything. This is common sense vs popular attitude. When I speak of popular attitude I dont mean Scotty. -
How will our children know whats right if they dont find out for themselves? Our situation: One side who thinks shiny pluses are holy has more military power than the little guys with the shiny crescents. Both are assured that they are 100% right and that the other side is the devil. Kind of like the butter battle, except if the pluses win the armys of darkness still walk the earth. THE BUTTER BATTLE

We will be taking lessons in a few seconds for earth stepping. Earth stepping is a dynamic flora of many vibrational techniques. All of them tend to happen at the same time because they are normal body functions. Ya know like breathing and blood pumping and chi flowing in your little bubble thingy. It is all good. When you take a step, apologize profusely for polluting the hellens mayonaise out of the earth. Whoever makes it 15 accross the red tape first wins and their dantien is <2% full. Go. mental mastication aside... how did you do?
