Middle DanTien: solar plexus/heart?
GrandmasterP replied to Seth Ananda's topic in General Discussion
William Shakespeare "Tell Me Where Is Fancy Bred" Tell me where is fancy bred, Or in the heart or in the head? How begot, how nourished? Reply, reply. It is engender’d in the eyes, With gazing fed; and fancy dies In the cradle, where it lies. Let us all ring fancy’s knell; I’ll begin it – Ding, dong, bell. Ding, dong, bell (From "The Merchant of Venice") -
It's still here at the moment. Maybe there's been some delay.

Nope. Tongue behind upper teeth and breathe in through nose down into LDT. Drop tongue behind lower teeth and exhale through mouth using relevant sound as required. All else is simply window dressing and yogic faff getting you nowhere except dizzy.

Shepherds need sheep. Leaders need those who are led. Management is easily subverted when staff simply ignore them. "They pretend to manage, we pretend to work". (Old pre-unification East German saying) 'Sheeple' are very powerful individually and even more so collectively, they create and destroy Gods; almost at whim.

..... A lot of Poles shifted here to the East Midlands when things were booming. Many are shifting back to Poland since our economy tanked.

Middle DanTien: solar plexus/heart?
GrandmasterP replied to Seth Ananda's topic in General Discussion
When Qi moves up and down Central Thrusting Channel it's the three foci you sense it most in. LDT is a breeze, everyone can feel that one. The other two take a bit of work and the top one especially. I blame all this crown chakra and 'mind' nonsense that gets talked about. UDT is a physiological site doing a physiological job that, depending on how one cultivates; may or may not have spiritual implications and/or benefits. -

There are words and then there is anatomy. -
There's always one! It is winter solstice in the southern hemisphere too my friend. Just because it is hot where you are right now does not mean that it is really summertime, you simply have very warm winters. Happy solstice. Twelve minutes to go to doomsday, 11pm London time.

Sixteen minutes to go and the portents gather. The cat's just come in with a particularly alarmed looking mouse.

Clench your right fist and cock your thumb. Hold your fist to your breast bone so that your cocked thumb joint is level with your nipple line. Now twist your fist down and to the left as far as your wrist will allow and look down to appreciate the thickness of your wrist against your chest. Thus far inside, the exact thickness you perceive and exactly the size of your clenched right fist (you being healthy) lies your living, beating heart. Two thirds to the left and one third to the right of the centre line of your body. The central thrusting channel runs from LDT through the MDT where your heart is to the UDT or third eye in the centre of your brain above and behind your sinuses. HTH -
Good Gracious. One never associated the Double Bass with rock n roll. Who is that quiffed fellow MH?

Chap admiring the vicar's garden says... "God has certainly given you a beautiful garden padre". Vicar replies... "Really, do you think so? You should have seen the state that it was in when He had it to himself".

How would a virtuous person act in this situation?

The cicadas in Greece all stop at a certain time almost as though someone had thrown an off switch. Something to do with the air temperature apparently. -
It's a crock, all of it. As any fule kno.... Round about 4004 BCE was creation.... Six days is all it took. Seventh day was a statutory rest day cos God's in the union.

I still find Popeye scary. Something to do with the jerky motion of the animation I suspect. If meat eating was that good for you we'd maybe be dodging Tyrannosaurus Rex and his mates yet.

I'd be really pissed off. Prezzies are due on Tuesday next.

You can buy an Almanack on Amazon that'll give you astrological and lunar planting dates for 2013. Old Moore's is the best for our hemisphere. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Moores-Almanack-2013-Francis-Moore/dp/0572039166/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1356096173&sr=8-1

You sound as if you might need something warm inside you lad. A nice potato and green lentil stew maybe. You should eat more.

'Hands-on religion' we called it. Faith can, and should be; fun. Nowhere does it say any different as far as I'm aware.
