Meditation and Suggestibility- Placebo or Real Occurrences?
skydog replied to Aaron's topic in General Discussion
what do you mean by "real"? -
Supernatural only seems supernatural in accordance with the currently accepted models of reality proposed by academics who try to understand the world by thinking about it, but according to quantum physics the more you try to understand the world the further you get from it as you affect the world. Also Aaron fair enough you might be skeptical about it but practice qigong and you will "feel" a force, when i move my hands its like theres a force and my muscles tense, Im pretty sure im not a crazy delusional lunatic.

Im pretty sure Qi is another word for energy. I am the laboratory, I am the scientist. I dont need a scientist to tell me I didnt have any porridge today because he cant find any evidence of it. Science is basically the current knowledge/ideas of some people of the way things work according to certain theories which are regarded as 100% accurate but are still only theories.

The External World is Ultimately Unsatisfactory
skydog replied to Lucky7Strikes's topic in General Discussion
wow great epiphany...trying to be happy prevents happiness...whereas non inteferance is.... also thanks for the thread I dont know if it had anything to do with another thread I wrote but if it was appreciate the effort, It is a worthwhile perspective of acknowledging...from time to time.. However Im also not overly fond of the "life is suffering" idea -
Purposeless wandering according to your heart versus logic and security
skydog replied to skydog's topic in General Discussion
ok thanks for the perspectives -
I can understand the frustration and not really speaking as someone who has "transcended" these issues, mabe temporarily perhaps and I know these perspectives can be argued forever, but some perspectives to bear in mind are: I was reading about Falun Gong today and it mentioned how people who practice it should not concern themselves with social or political things as it was believed such things come from a desire for power or influence...which is not in the nature of taoism. You cannot fit a round object on a square peg, a zebra who notices a lion and complains about how unfair the lion is and starts philosophising or spending all day thinking about the lion is kind of like a person who argues with the way things are.

"No use for it, how can it come to grief or pain?" -
My nan died, im not overly upset, just wish the best for her, good reincarnation or whatever...if I belive in spirits, bardoes is there an appropriate thing to do, my mums the most upset, i decided to quietly and subtly give her a book of the tibetan book of living and dying she gave me 2 years ago but never read (although I dont like the idea of pushing ideas onto other people) what can i do lol or nothing
-
Im very good at expressing myself Id like to think, but I hate the idea of not saying certain things or acting in a way other people want me to or are comfortable with because I hate the idea of being fake and lying and seeking approval.. So therefore I dont like to hang around "normal" people. and am probably socially awkward..

Trying, effort and intefering with nature is what semen retention brings to mind. If one is going with the flow when one feel horny one would most likely masturbate. If one did this reguarly enough one would possibly notice the drain in energy and NATURALLY would not want to masturbate. Im not even sure if this opinion is correct but thats like all opinions really.

So your saying follow your heart...pondering this for a couple of hours. So if I really do what I want I would live somewhere like puerto vallarta in mexico, live near either the beaches, jungles, or nightclubs with similar kind of thinking people and friendliness. Also women there are in extreme abundance and my kind of women.. I would also like to go travelling occasionally. I would like my family to be happy and interested in these kind of topics and change their lifestyle and live near me ahah....already started teaching my dad qigong so I dunno I would like to have enough money to live comfortably in puerto vallarta...so I guess I could easily get a job as a waiter as I was told its easier for white (kind of ) people and then could buy a house as long as its not too strenous.. I would also like to teach techniques for people to alter their consciousness such as qigong, drumming etc...so I guess I could learn these things... I would like a small amount of job security although I dont know what I prefer I want free time and freedom to be around nature and cultivate I want my dad to be proud of me and think im doing well and be happy with me (seeking approval quite big here) I want my brother and mum and dad to learn more of these consciousness changing things and change their lives with it somewhat.. I guess those are things to think about...strange how my mind just clicked on mexico all of a sudden out of the blue.

well normally i dont give a shit..but as lame as it sounds am on a site called couchsurfing trying to find someone to stay with for finland..and have to make a profile with my interests and about me, message like 60 people get mostly ignores or three maybes and 1 yes...I kind of feel like I have to either not tell my interests or ideas because it comes across weird...and I dont know it just irritates me..haha
-
Im not sure if my dan tien is ripped but masturbated a couple of times in a day (even though I would not like to do these things) and I get a slight pain there... They say dont do energy practice after masturbating, but isnt everything a kind of energy practice...walking, thinking anyways is this a serious situation or just goes away by itself.

Gerard thanks- I guess shaking medicine/Stillness movements works on opening the joints?
-
I kind of have the ability to self heal, spontaneously putting my hands on certain places then shaking, yawning, burping and feeling better...I think I should do this right, cos when i do it it goes to my dan tien and other areas...?

Perception, thoughts, feelings, actions depends on brain waves and chemicals
skydog posted a topic in General Discussion
If someone feels love they have certain perceptions and behaviours If someone is strongly on testosterone they have certain perceptions and behaviours Same with serotinin, dmt etc Do I like the effects of testosterone on my brain....some good some bad, who is this I that likes or doesnt like my behaviour.. Testosterone does have some positive effects eg taking action, doing, not giving a shit But negative effects are it makes me feel aggressive, act more aggressively, less caring of others.. This is just perception at the moment. -
Well Im pretty sure from feeling my own energy it drastically drains me..I was just wondering on how to naturally avoid it, which some sugegstions came up, however good points have been made about it could accentuate all negative blockages etc..

While this is equally just a belief its funny to look at the dominant paradigm that a fifty year old must automatically be wiser than a 7 year old. If a 7 year old black girl (for example) has very clever original ideas and attitudes we tell her no first you must go to school become indoctrinated then you and your ideas are respectable. As a child one is more authentic, playful, has more alpha and beta brain waves but the school systems through rigid learning patterns, indoctrination of cultural beliefs etc kind of dumb down children in many ways. hmm
