  1. Sex and Karma

    Rather, what I was trying to suggest could be viewed as a "tantric 'claspped hands' path". Not to suggest it would be easily accomplished or without risk.
  2. The zeitgeist movement - even your parrot can spread the word

    It is a primal inevitability. All things must run their course, with or without hinderance, and they will. Greed is reaching it's destination, and we will pick up the peices and build anew from it's wreakage. In the next world, the free time we have will be spent in cultivation and lead to something so much more great and amazing than the technology. We'll inevitably come to a point where the being and the machine will compete for effectiveness and effeciency, the next great conflict. However, it will be as though nothing in comparison to all things since past.
  3. The Temple of Mu

    No worries, I4L: We are in the apocalypse, the age of revelation, the dawn of awakening. Mu will rise again after the polar shit. i mean shift.
  4. Call for help!

    I have to agree with the finer points you made, but consider this: I want to teach freeloaders, freely. My time is only as valuable as the company i keep with it. If i can improve the life of a "freeloader" and turn their ways around, that is a great potential to improve not only the person, but the community and even the world. One person at a time. I can reject no student, no matter their finances or commitment. every grain of sand counts toward the mountain they could build.
  5. Chuang Tzu on unity, conscious revolution

  10. The zeitgeist movement - even your parrot can spread the word

    Does it even matter, what dreams may come to those who unfetter themselves?

  13. 30 minute 30 day mentorships

    I have spent about a week or two, mostly contemplating what anamatva has presented me, until today. The results are simply beyond expectation. Paranormal might be an accurate description, if i believed in a "para"normal or "super"natural This is an awakening for me, to something that i have so secretly cultivated that even I, my own self, HAD NO IDEA how far I have advanced in cultivation and practice. Such that i had no formal understanding of what i was doing, any genuine potential internal recognition would, until today, have been lost on me. I see now how far i've truly come, and that I am, indeed, very capable of practicing and cultivating more than i thought, nay, more than i thought i already have. My gratitude to anamatva for what he has so graciously shared. Many blessings to this thread, this board, this forum, this website, that others too may reap the vast benefits available here.
  14. To the spirit of Steve Jobs

    HAH! Good one, I liked that. Steve Jobs... well, i cant say much, i've never used his hardware nearly as much as i do PC.... so... His macs and apple computers filled my gradeschool and my short-lived experience in middle school, i can thank him for that! {Edit:}With the departure of a technological leader opens a gap to be filled, by whom is yet to be seen. With hope and faith, it will not be filled by a negative force, but another positive visionary.{/Edit:}
  15. Aboriginal Stonehenge: Stargazing in ancient Australia

    Certainly easier on the eyes too! But i digress, i will continue doing what research i can and gain as much direction and guidance as the tao bums has to offer... (thanks anamatva!)
  16. Bone Marrow

    So far, my higher self is like a Legend of Zelda dungeon; A puzzling maze of doors, switches and secret levers, obsticals, buttons, and puzzle-triggers! It is indirect and round-about, but i believe that it chooses to present itself in that way from my history of video gaming all day long I'm trying to curb myself and in effort, bring about a more straightforward higher-self.
  17. If all of humanity worked together . . .

    Money is not really a necessity... it's not natural in any sense of the word outside of the world of man-made-world, Civilization. Chi is a good comparison to money only superficially, sicne chi is free and one cannot be obstructed from cultivating chi, whereas money is a controlled material which is always obstructed from acquisition and controlled in how much can be acquired by means of exchange or labor. Money is more akin to anti-chi, particularaly to those who are so focused on money acquisition, that they cannot spend time to cultivate chi. Saying money is natural is like saying it is natural for a baby lamb to eat a lion.
  18. Heat

    Oh there's a funny little song remixed from DKC2 called Rambi's backwards room, or jsut the backwards room or something like that... But it's in an album, not a stand-alone song you can download from www.ocremix.org however... http://ocremix.org/album/18/donkey-kong-country-2-serious-monkey-business That album is pretty cool Oh well, i cant find the lyrics either D:
  19. I dare Tao doesn't flow here...

    Suspenders? PSHAW! Let's gimme some awesome glasses taped together!
  20. Sex and Karma

    Tantric, a double edged sword, can both amplify the desire, and curb it all together, turning sex into lovemaking, bringing desire to experience to subside, and the act becomes a gift. Mindful awareness of the breath in all things.
  21. Haiku Chain

    In the Zen garden I play The Zen Sand Garden. Follow this link here.
  22. The zeitgeist movement - even your parrot can spread the word

    Nah man, that wasnt necessary, i see, now, where the confusion lies: Not in the contents of the post (you seemed to be going off about WHAT you SAID, not WHEN... )... but the EAST TO WEST COAST TIME ZONE DIVISION!!! :lol: Can we get a GIANT " " ? i am laughing... sorry, but man, you had me kind of worried! XD
  23. I dare Tao doesn't flow here...

    Nerds: Secretly Taoist/Daoist immortals? Hmmmm....
  24. The zeitgeist movement - even your parrot can spread the word

    Then i msut be falsifying what i'm quoting right now, sicne all i did was press the (+) Reply button to summon that all up. Why.... dont you... Check. Page. THREE. you're being asinine right now, and i challenge you to end this once and for all by QUOTING YOURSELF. Go to page three, i dare you to prove me wrong. Anyone, ANYONE, who wants to prove this can just. look. at. page. 3. Including you. Please, you're being beligerant and asinine. It's a sad exchange we're making right here, but if you really insist that you never said anything i've quoted, then please, quote yourself and show me what you really said, or meant to say. So anyways... If you cant/wont do that, then i wont bother you about this any further, however, i will retain my stance and posture on the topic.
  25. Hi to the person who is reading this (that probably means YOU) and welcome! :D

    I'm sharing something today:

    Be mindful of the 'nothing' between 'everything' and see the differences. this is dualism.

    Now see that they are indistinguishable, the same 'thing'.

    This is chi awareness practice, and yet there is nothing to be aware of! :D
