I grant your wish, but because my infinite wishes are all auto-corrupted you immediately corrupt my wish on your own behalf and Costa Rica becomes a huge volcanic crater within the hour of your arrival. Wish i knew better than to make wishes in a corrupt-a-wish thread

I'M UNEMPLOYED! ASK ME A QUESTION! (I DID NOT CONVERT WITH THE COMPANIES POLICIES) (LAST WORDS OF MY MANAGER BEFORE I WALKED OUT OF HER OFFICE)

STFU. you live in australia. THAT is the most rational response, but i digress. America is so far in the shitter that most people are too scared to spend money on anything but their debts, which are, ironically, thanks to corporate entities. The "solution" as most americans understand it is to get a corporate job and climb the corporate ladder, which is damn near impossible, especially with as much monopoly as corporate entities have, thus reducing the availability of career paths. This is a fact of the matter which results in "odd jobs" being available not from the common man but the middle class and above, who, also, cant afford to hire all the bums in the street to pain their house. But the bums, we'd be more than willing to do a job if we could get food and drink, or money. Some of us fly a sign saying "will work for anything" and dont even get work. It's not just a generalization, it's a pandemic. P.S. sales are never sincere connections. at the end of the day, you'll never meet that person (again) and that "sincerity" was merely for the sales. What people dont seem to realize is that today is the day of Crazy Horse's prophecy, but it has yet to come completely true until this disenfranchised, neglected, abused, and "unrelatable" generation receives the Love and compassion it needs to grow up. The last 3 or 4 generations in america have destroyed it's decendants' futures. SO FUCK OFF WITH TEH PAT ADVICE. no offense, but im not going to listen to any more BFS like that. Get your hands dirty and help out or dont talk to me. -
Physically, strength times speed equals power. Emotionally, your strength is your character, your speed is the time it takes you to recognize your opportunities to accent your character. Integrity and decent character just dont get you laid anymore i guess...

But the term "our" in limited confinements is an oxymoron, for "our" refers to 100% all of the whole and not just an isolated group. That is how i use and understand the word, for any other meaning or usage is only misleading and deceitful.

granted, you dont sleep anymore, and the constant mental activity is driving you insane. I wish i had everlasting wishes.

Picking at semantics consensually OUR pleasure. not jsut "my" or "you" enjoyment. "our" is not meant to be interpreted as any example of one sided gain. "our greed" is an oxymoron.

the self taught are the only ones who hold credibility to the path they follow. I would liek to add to this "dont talk about teachers" idea. Dont talk about your teacher, for you are the one who is learning. Dont talk about whose teacher taught what, for the lessons cannot be shared, only practiced. dont talk about which schooling is what way, for it distracts from the participation of experiencing which way is which. So do not talk about the ones who try to bring the education up in our lives, for they are only trying to service the world and expand earth's awareness. Talk, instead, about what you have learned and how it has helped you, not where you got it from.

The balance are the other two extremes. Suppression and indulgence of ego are the intentual extremes, perhaps the yin of the balance. Suppression exercises to build patience, indulgence to build character. But what else? There is the inactive half as well, perhaps as though the yang half of the balance which consists of reflecting on your own self and ego respectively and through dualistic recognition, findign the oneness of the cycles. Complete commitment to one direction leads to futility. life is a combat, you cannot commit every movement fully or you will fall on your face. you need to learn how far to commit each movement and exercise and when to relax and when to pull back, when to push forward, and when to stand ground. All parts of life are reflected by the sacred cycle of breath. Recognizing each part of the cycle make progress less obstructed, clearer, and overall easier to manage.

The best chi kung healers in the world?

You have been given very valuble advice here, i hope you dont ignore it. -
Galactic alignment, nothing more. Just as earth has 12 months, the galaxy is split into segments, and 2012 marks the beginning of a galactic "solstice" and transition into a new galactic "season" and month. It's jsut a segment in the cycles of the breath and bind of all things that are...

people with a spiritual path arent cut out for corporate or contracted jobs. Sadly, no other jobs are generally available in america. -

hurrrr yeah... but it was somewhat made out that it's as if okay to think sex as bad and that psychological perspective is somehow any bit beneficial to anyone. It's harmful to the nature of love and deprives people of true sexual energy experiences. You cant fuck and expect to be satisfied. only Love delivers.

A question for Vaj the Buddhist
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan replied to Ninpo-me-this-ninjutsu-me-that's topic in General Discussion
What of both, dissolving into the whole, and not dissolving at all, but becoming one with the whole and self; both dualistic and non-dualistic, yet neither one nor the other? To dissolve into oneness, while being a part of the interdependent nature of it all? -
There is nothing dirty or filthy or uncultured or "wrong" about fulfilling our sexual needs. This is propaganda which serves to keep people "in line" in society and not think that they hold complete dominion over their own lives, but must submit to some other authority other than the way of the universe, physics, and god, but another equally lesser being; a human.

Life Application of Bagua Workshop
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan replied to Qlites's topic in General Discussion
Flowry patterns and artforms are merely appealing and promotional. while, yest, they are a product of cultivation, they are also, in the same breath, nothing more than fancy footwork and sensationalistic of a particular way, path, artform, or schooling. The true highest point of martial arts is the actual act of cultivating your mind, body, soul, and spirit through the 16fold cycles of breath... 4 cycles over 4 areas of the "self". Learning your mind. inhale, hold, relax, exhale. Learning your muscle. inhale, hold, relax, exhale. Learning your soul. inhale, hold, relax, exhale. Learning your spirit. inhale, hold, relax, exhale. The mind, awareness, consciousness, expands and contracts like the muscles, the lungs. The soul, the spirit. we are all connected. the breath is ever binding. The seed of martial arts... Is breathing. -
Thank you very much for posting this video. I also extend my gratitude to this individual for providing taping of his practice for us. We are human beings, not robots. We learn by example, not writing or scripts. We need more examples of mastery.

Sadly, my direct experiences conform to what non describes. Confidence is, however, definitely a key role in attraction, but it is not a dominant role. Confidence in being "nice" ensures you'll "finish last" which requires teh utmost patient approach, which most people lack the capacity for and will most likely wind up resorting to "if you cant beat them, join them" which is why "they" seem so predominant. Some people realize the err of these ways, but most, at least in america, do not. ever. the closest they might come is, while still taking comfort in their belief and ways, they might begin to doubt the validity. but they dont change significantly from that, they just invite self doubt into play. WHICH..... defeats confidence. So as you describe, sloppy, it's better to be stupid, brutish, and confident than to try to preserve any level of integrity at the risk of losing confidence. Non, my only advice to you is this: DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK ABOUT YOU. Be confident that you are who you are, and who you are is all you need to be. It might not attract the girls you want, but you will present a more attractive aura, even if it pushes more people away than draws in. Be true to how you feel, not trying to be someone you're not, jsut to pick up chicks. cuz in the long run, they never wanted you i nthe first place, they were just misguided by their influences to think what you presented was desirable. Inevitably, all lies are exposed. the "bad ass" guys wind up living alone and dying alone at age 80 and only THEN do they come to the insights we throw about so casually as if it were common sense. WE are avatars.

Maybe there is a point to the iPad after all
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan replied to Apech's topic in The Rabbit Hole
OH, ninpo, are you IN china? I feel silly sometimes i jsut have the habit of assuming everyone online is america. why is that??? i wonder... Your i-pad comments were hilarious, but why waste the money on something lighter than a rock, which i could get for free? -
People listen more when they come to us, not the other way around. The internet is the world's best, if not only, chance. I was homeless all last summer. people ignor ethis stuff if they dont initiate the search. We can change the world, the world must be willing to make the necessary changes. one individual at a time. Perhaps that is what the avatar meant by there is only one at a time?

A question for Vaj the Buddhist
Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan replied to Ninpo-me-this-ninjutsu-me-that's topic in General Discussion
If one achieves the perception of non-duality, does it matter wht path they took to arrive at it? Hindu, buddhist, taoist, christian, or non-religious. i've met people who have reached a non-dualistic point of view and you know what they say? "It doesnt matter!" Because once you've attained that point of view, you can see how one can arrive at that point from ANY path, as they are all one "place", "being", "thing", or "isness". Does it matter if you're a particle on the left or right side of the heads or tails side of a coin? -
