  1. Religion is the poison of Spirituality

    Religion is the poison of Spirituality? Reality is the poison of Spirituligion...

  4. The Tao Of Nietzsche

    Nietzsche was special. His philosophy is a brick...
  5. Religion is the poison of Spirituality

    Our reality (or am I alone out here?) Is the center of infinity. infinity spans in infinite directions over infinite distances throughout infinite dimensions, and perception is at the center of it... where else could it be? To be fully immersed in this "reality" we MUST be blinded from what lies beyond the infinite! SO OBVIOUSLY, there is one of everything; a human without a heart, alive and kicking, venom for breath, and ice for a voice, all assortments of animals and human(oid) with and even without souls and/or spirits! Why even bother waste time to think of the infinite combinations of infinite combinations? It's physically infinity^infinity^infinity¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯(infinitely) translation: infinity to the infiniteth power to the infiniteth power infinitely repeated. AND after the maths are in, the players enter the experience generating AEIOU and viola, cant tell what's real and what's not, play around and learn how to interact with this world around us never knowing our true selves or weather or not we are real or they are real. just wandering throughout infinity until we stop and wonder about it. Or at least that's how it is for me, jsut wondering about the truth of reality... ANYWAYS, point being: Why do you even care?

    Easy to say. Financially and physiologically irresponsible to starve to death over fucked up sex drive and LDT... but eh, it's ideal never the less, just ineffecient in a part of the world where growing your own veggies is a rare sight and people prefer the fast track easy street of buying food. Heck, im thinking of asking my aunt and uncle if the small (maybe 6x6) plot behind the shed could be worked; put in a small compost and till up the soil beside it i suppose...? Not much towork with, but WorkABLE. (How) Does the zodiac tie into this (or everything for that matter, HAW!)?
  7. Winter Q and A with Chinese Doctor! My Gift to TaoBums for Christmas!

    Ah, a great path to walk indeed! A friend of mine called his "Wukaido" if i am not mistaken? I forget, doesnt matter. AS for this thread, I like to try to help people, and someone who needs help now is coincidentally also someone who hates to recieve or accept help of any manner. very prideful, but persistent to the very least. His back pains will last longer than his pride, but maybe not his persistence... at which point i may be capable of stepping in, but it could be a long wait or require a terrible experience for him. However, it was only recent that he experienced these pains, said he was in the shower, bent over to wash his feet when his back popped, and upon standing, he has what he beleives to eb a pinched nerve. I am hoping to divulge as much as i can, but the general knowledge may be the best i'll get; at whatever point on his back, i dont know (i suspect its on the right hand side), he popped *something* in a not so painful mannter he said, but standing up hurt his back and is causing numbness on the underside of his right arm from shoulder to wrist/hand. i think his fingers are becoming, but not totally numbed. He *has* control of his arm, but the pain is apparent. constantly. I do so hope to be able to offer something to fix his prediciment, but as i said, he wouldnt be apt to help himself unless he thinks he came up with it *UNLESS* it's "bad enough". Perhaps you've knowledge of something that would be useful in aiding him through this? Merry today and a happy tomorrow!

  10. Religion is the poison of Spirituality

    Hi. I love Vmarco. An unconditional love that i have learned to understand over the years. His posts are a two edged sword. be wary of the edge you may inadvertantly encouter when approaching without careful consideration taht while one side can cut foe, the otehr can cut self. I THOUGHT. I, personally, beleived that people visited TTB for insights, inspiration, philosophical sharing, discussion, and "discovery" for the lack of a better phrase. I THOUGHT. I, personally, beleived that it was best to keep an open mind and take the healthy fruits while avoiding the thorns and bristles. YES. PERHAPS. IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE. It is very indeed outright probable that the majority of people here are tired of Vmarco's thorns, bristles, edges, and defense mechanisms, like bright yellow and black striped red outlined dislike for certain subjects that aaaaaaarrrreee completely irrelevant regardless of how annoying; we must learn toaccept that some members, such as our famous Vmarco, are covered in more thorns than others, such as oldgreen for example. But regardless of the niussance of thorns, pricked egoic fingers, and sore debate glands, Vmarco has dropped giant mounds of gold at our feet!! In many of his seemingly abrasive and pious comments and contributions, we miss out on the genuine guidance he can offer because we dont like the rough texture he delivers it with. Cat, i apologize that i truly Love every member here and would prefer we all continue contributing our thoughts, experiences, ideas, and opinions than any one disliked member be shunned, requested to leave, excluded, or "evicted" as i once was temporarily, in spite of my intentions being aimed toward goodness, that my abrasive angst got the best of me. I can forgive any transgressions that any individual can ever deliver through word, text, speech, or verb. No matter how much i disagree with someone, i would never ask them to stop being themselves. Maybe i see something they seek and can nudge them in the right direction. but then again, maybe even so, it would be impossible for them to find, in spite of it being in front of them all along. People are diverse, cant cherry pick 'em. So why not treat them with undivided and unconditional, free wide open agape Love. REAL Love, with the capital L and everything, the one that means you dont wish any ill will on even your worst enemy. I prefer to think that i have no enemies, only individuals who disagree with me. I request for the presence of every member who has something they feel the cause and sense to type and share. So long as there is no genuine harm done physically, spiritually, psychologically, or otherwise tangibly, i dont see what's so bad about Vmarco's opinions or ideas. Just cuz i like to argue with someone i disagree with does not mean i have any reason to dislike them. In teh end of it all, no matter how anyone outside of yourself acts, it is you whose opinion defines how their actions affect you. big or small, catastrophic or inconsequential. it makes no difference what your or my opinion is, you cant "undo" reality.

    If poison is religion, is spirituality tea?
  12. Winter Q and A with Chinese Doctor! My Gift to TaoBums for Christmas!

    Wow I don't even know enough about either the heart OR any kind of Qi practice that would be any use to someone, or even myself! In a situation like that, me, i'd probably try to get her to a hospital. I'd have to know what I was doing to want to help out any other way at all.
  13. Winter Q and A with Chinese Doctor! My Gift to TaoBums for Christmas!

    Free legal advice? I'm down with that! HAW! First thing that comes to my mind is how much can I learn from reading about Taijiquan or Qi Gong? Second is how will I know I am practicing correctly without the watchful guidance of an actual teacher?

    do you at least know what it is supposed to be?

    heh sorry, I couldn't help but laugh... It's a serious topic, but the lightheartedness of a simple comment like that can take the edge off and bring in reception from readers Also, I have a very hard time not touching myself. I just KNOW im the reason the dinosaurs went extinct (family guy flashback).

    Sorry, sorry! Don't mind me, but I don't know if this was intentional or not, it made me laugh my ass off... and back on again...!
  17. Religion is the poison of Spirituality

    why is everyone obsessed with what VMarco has to say, does say, thinks, or believes? Mind you, I am also equally concerned with why VMarco cares about what everyone else has to say, does say, thinks, or believes..... Let's try this: Share opinions without the need to "correct" the opinions of others! Isnt that counter-intuitive and leading astray from enlightenment? To try to sway others? To try to correct mistakes you perceive in others? Sure, it's not like we have anything better to do, but seriously... arguing over the subjective with empirical objective truths is just plain silly. like insisting the names of colors are all wrong!

    I understand the idea, but how about where to apply it?
  20. Multi-Orgasmic Man - Am I Doin' It Right?

    No, but the few women I have been with couldn't. There was one girl who could, but she still had a hard going long enough and time getting me off also. so I learned how to have lots of orgasms and few, if any, ejaculations.

  22. Multi-Orgasmic Man - Am I Doin' It Right?

    The problem i have encountered is that no woman i have met is up to par for me. it's the equivelant of a lion trying to get his rocks off with a house cat.... im gonna wind up killing a girl some day!

  25. Chinese language forum question(s)

    Is there a distinct benefit from speaking or understanding Chinese? lol that is only a joke really, though there are some serious topics that could be discussed in tangent, my real question is how much can one benefit from the discussions and translations in the Chinese language forum? Thank you
