  1. what the daoist master ordered at the hotdog stand

    The zen master contemplates teh idea of a hotdog and his belly is filled; laughs about the daoist master with queer joy of understanding nothing(ness).

    Im not allowed to talk about killing the sources of our problems on TTB. i got banned for it before and already got a warning since i've been back. If killing it were an option, hitler got a head start.

  11. Who "Sees" the Dragon Eye?

    i try not to affix myself to anything i "see" or think or feel while meditating... Mind you, it happens, and i just let it run its course... with the ulterior of letting it go.

    You misunderstand: The hydra is a fictional construct maintained by the continued participation within the structure of civilization. Cut one head (actively participate) and 2 more will grow in its place. Cut the heart out (end participation) and the body will die.

    yeah.... winter survival is something i really need to learn, if i cant get involved in an off-grid community... i have my hopes, but my outlook is not so great... :\ i dunno. people tend to make it sound like no big deal: " "just" find some people and join their community" is about as simple as "just" establish a colony on Pluto... :\ no matter how great my access to the tools that simplify my task, they are of no use to me if i dont know how to use them.

    it is long past time for everyone to evaluate the situation and assess weather or not participation is going to result in any sort of solution or just quit playing the game all together and remove themselves from the negative influence that participation produces.

    Dreams are more valuable than reality. i wouldnt bat an eye if relaty disappeared in an instant the way dreams do. Ghost towns are much friendlier than downtowns. Hemp is the salvation of humanity and the cure of cancer (both biological and civil). While i am not too certain "sub-tropical" sounds terribly cool for my climate preferences, everything you say is striking... WHERE are you, though, i have to ask?
  22. Seeking positive, alternative, off grid community

    people, please. its not society that is cancerous. this society in the USA, yes, but by and large, it is civility itself, regardless of which society. An uncivilized (tribal hunter/gatherer) society is not cancerous. i think im just splitting hairs to a degree, but the specification is necessary: I am seeking a society which is anti-cancerous in regards to the planet and its inhabitants. im looking for a "white blood cell society" as opposed to the toxic, virus, and cancer societies that civility has to offer.

    off the grid, working with solar power is okay, self sufficient with matters of food and clean water are a must, willingness to work with someone who is CLUELESS as to how to work with the situation, but more than eager to get involved. definitely, preferably, Pacific Northwest... the further north the better... lol but as long as its self sufficient and off the grid, the Mojave Desert is *almost* acceptable.... but... i learned that i cant live without my evergreens and pine trees... so..... that would be hard to accept for me given any duration of time - harder over time. If there's any way to work with hemp, i've been dying to learn how to make my own Hemp Gi for a long, long time now... I cannot imagine what there is involved so i dont truly know what else to say.

    erhm eh ah... heh... maybe edit your post to fill in my full screen name.... just to avoid potential confusion? lol or, really... shouldnt i have done this?
