    WELCOME!!!!!!!!!
  8. Taoist Anarchy Organization

    That's how things work right now with the whole conspiracy theory front. First someone got the information and gave it to the people, the people then think they can make a difference by telling other people, in the end everyone knows what's going on, but that's it. No one takes initiative in anything while getting ready to take the next big hit in case it ever happens. Meanwhile a very organized system of meany-bad-bad people keeps going at it but this time in the open. There's just a big mass of people with nothing to do because when it all started no one said, "This is what happening and this is what we're gotta do." No one knows what to do with the information and so it just gets passed along hoping there is someone who knows what to do with it. This whole mass of people is left there without a leader but it's still controlled with fear that is created by someone from the outside. Everyone is being controlled by what they're trying to fight and this is the weak spot of this not-system.
  9. Taoist Anarchy Organization

    Meh... Sounds like a work on a new political party system... thing There are already many parties, around here at least, running for being in charge and some of them work just fine. In computer terms, these parties are more like programs running on an operational system that unlike the programs, never seems to change. There are a lot of updates though and these parties are like updates that change the OS a little while they're in charge. I don't think the party is where that Anarchy happens, parties have rules and principles and things that define them. Anarchy is on the same level as chaos and just allowing things to happen. The parliament is where the actual Anarchy happens, it's the OS that runs other parties and it changes and allows a party in charge to do it's thing. I'm more interested in making a better OS and giving all parties a better chance. The OS, even when it's told what's wrong, doesn't know the best possible thing to do at any situation. That's a flaw that needs to be fixed if possible, and it looks like a thing that needs a Taoist to solve.
  10. My post got deleted or something

    I still keep imagining you having a robot voice
  11. Sending Chi into something

    Yes to all
  12. I think... put your gun away I think... Christianity and everybody else can get through this without making any sacrifices. The books are awesome and all but how they are taught is messed up. The lessons are taught is a story form and are hard to understand if you read through them only once and stop thinking. Some of the deeper meaning gets interpreted correctly but people get stuck on some of the points that always get pulled out of context. When you are a Buddhist, you are told that you can't reach enlightenment by wanting it. In Hindu terms, or explaining them with chakras, when you aim for the 7th chakra, you are trying to satisfy your 4th chakra's needs. http://www.bible.com/bibleanswers_result.php?id=180 There's the right idea hidden somewhere in there but almost no one sees it.
  13. I think... You don't just go to them asking to change, and you don't become a vegan hoping it will stop some guy on the other side of the globe from taking his gun and shooting a rhino in the face. What you do is take charge and change the very ground they are standing on. Some guy out there can take his gun and shoot as many rhinos as he want because it's easy, so make it impossible. Everything has a reason so instead of trying to stop a whole bunch of people from being stupid, find out what makes them stupid and destroy it. The answer to the stupidity will be stupid and the defense of that thing will be stupid, but that's how civilized discussions start Maybe rhino horn is a miracle medicine and that's the reason, give them some real medicine. There's a reason why there's no real medicine, find out why that is and keep going until you find the smallest reason and help change it. Maybe crazy Christian people are misunderstood because they were all this time in a cave without knowing there are other people with the similar books and experiences that they never knew about, or wanted to think about. Maybe they need help to grow a little and stop hitting each other with a club over the head.
  14. Being Different

    Sounds like just the book for me. Since around 2007 I've been looking into the sameness of religions as a way of studying Taoism, and funny enough, the two major things I looked into are Christianity and Hinduism I need to get my hands on this book
  15. The diaphragm in reverse breathing

    So it's impossible to do as CD says because there's no space for air to go as the diaphragm goes up
  16. The diaphragm in reverse breathing

    Makes sense, then what's the problem? You guys have been going on about it for days
  17. The diaphragm in reverse breathing

    Stomach goes in and the organs force diaphragm to move a little up on the inhale as the diaphragm does a downward movement to take in the air, opposite on the exhale. Alveoli are forced to take in more oxygen because of the pressure, lightheadedness develops. So it's like blowing air inside a balloon as air escapes it, right?
