I love it Could be a movie!

Yes, we can overcome it. It is difficult, but it can be overcome. The analogy I would have to use is climbing a smooth stone wall in a driving rain. Sound impossible? How many people do you know that have overcome it? In our reality, energy exchange is constantly happening. It is time for people to realize flow doesnt move one direction. That is not receptivity.

I would pay to see it. Ill play $40 on John Chang and $100 on Buddha ***attention this is not a real bet for federal law purposes***

Okay my final reply before I release this topic back to where it came from is this: To become any kind of great master or person, you generally have to do great things, be considerate and have a kind nature. Being able to effectively communicate with others is a plus. I say that being able to communicate with people of all walks of life is important because it is the interaction that is important. If it is YOU + TV or MEDIA the flow is one way. You are not getting the interaction aspect of it and it become difficult for you to appropriately interact with others of different opinions. If you give a strong opinion about this or that you simply miss out on the interaction that you would have had with them and the information the both of you might have shared. On to taoism... The I-ching is based upon changes in nature. The energies that mankind has is much different than nature. We have created energies that are different from nature. There are energies that we have as humans that cannot be easily predicted by mankind thats why we have different tools for that. Nature is far more different than mankind. If you spend your time only interacting with humans, and have close minded views on humans and outlook on human life... What does that say about your ability to interact with Nature? It simply tells me you can't, you dont want to... Or even more likely you just know nothing about the energies of nature. That is just plain common sense. Thats all I have to say.

Well I tried to save it. I think its dead. Somebody have paddles?

I recently recieved a few PMs about this subject. How did this subject make you feel? Good, bad? I think it brought us down a bit. Thats okay... I can try to save it:

Well for me it isnt about guilt. It just is what it is.

I am faced with a dilemma. If I act, it seems like my action retain a certain strange quality that could be misunderstood negatively though I am aware. I have caught myself many more times today almost slipping up and making a misteak. Earlier I talked with a friend and told an off-color joke. The friend was slightly offended. Later I made amends. Please share your experiences. Peace - AB

Thank you de_paradise and Harmonious Emptiness for posting. Yesterday, I had the chance to react to something emotionally. Deep down I felt I was okay like I was not bothered by it. In short I forgot also my ability to "show love" so I cleaned out the blocked feeling. Still there was an imbalance. So the sudden underactivity probably caused this. If you have noticed any off color posts yesterday, those were a direct result. Yes, when we dont show love it is selfish, yes I seemed to have an inability to direct intentions. Should be back up to speed in no time.

As long as you are here to talk about the other things that is great and we accept you. The moment someone spams, I am not saying it is you, we turn into rabid wolves. How long have you been on your quest? What started your interest in spirituality or taoism?

I did not read that. I was simply there.

I used to have a large shiva lingham in my bedroom. Then i couldnt sleep because I was already supersensitive to that type of energy. Course the crystals i have in my bedroom beside that are large as well. I have lots of selenium to repel stagnant energy. It makes for intense dreams. Vulcan was my father's God. Generally, a god presents itself. I cant share my experience with a bizarre named god because after seeing sorcerers apprentice it sounds too much like a scene from that movie. Totally ruined my ability to share it. Plus it happened years before that movie came out. LOL thanks disney

I couldnt help but notice this video. However, I know what I will say next to you may be a can on condensed knowledge... I need to start by saying "nothing bothers me". Generally nothing does, course it has taken some time to reach this point. What makes people unhappy? Something that people think they dislike. What makes people happy? Something they like. When you start questioning why things make you unhappy, then you can realize how you are feeling and reacting to the stimulus that made you unhappy. If you can stop the cycle of unhappiness then they no longer have to get upset about everything. You dont feel a clump of something holding you down. Generally learning to feel unhappy is a taught action. We learn that when some things happen we should naturally be unhappy. This is not the case. Once you realize this you will be a better and more free individual. Peace AB

Besides that, one of the pyramids was used for healing... Another one only avatars could enter because people would die of their fear. That pyramid is not open to the public because people were found dead of heart attacks.. fluid in their lungs (drowning). There much the general public doesnt know about them.

theres the right video

Okay from the top I am not talking about harming or cruelty here. Have you ever done things knowing the outcome, still doing it anyway? Do you find it humourous? Inspirational? Does it stimulate anything that you like to do normally? I like returning items to the same place but not always the same way. Doing things in reverse. Sometimes doing things out of the ordinary. People become irked by this. Is this a need to control or think some patterns are normal? Maybe. Calm... A

I was searching the greater part of the general discussion and it seems that this very important point has not been covered. When speaking to an audience and I dont mean blunt oratory that deafens and iritates the ears; It seems prudent to define what type of audience one is speaking to. So now it is here. Before one decides to post here as a new member they can take a look. You cannot rush people to see an new point of view. You can only talk to them on the level that they are on. If they are looking for improvement they can only change by what they are open to. If you have personal perspectives, please post them here to refrain from the intitial post I have seen before of, ' I am going to teach these guys something'. Remember manners were a way of showing kindness, now people seem to think that manners is trying to be superior. So it may be best to just show kindness in posting it will save a flame war. Adieu.

I am here...

Did I somehow miss something in the time I was lurking? It does not bother me either way we are swinging here. I just didnt notice anything that specifically. Either that or I missed it. Possible.

To the Down-Under people... We must be nothing more than Down-Under ourselves ja?
