Here http://thetaobums.com/topic/26717-takaakis-american-taoism/ this topic came from http://thetaobums.com/topic/16669-ttc-study-chapter-ten-of-the-tao-teh-ching/ as an example.

Dio. Tho I wish that would work on taxes and big goverment. Dont like them dont pay them. But that be jail time. Oh sorry, off topic there. Point being starve it early before it can eat you. Thick skin, less ego helps. P.S. Dio = Ditto, but I forgot the ts one day and have been spelling it that way ever since.

Ok, ya'll can guess I voted 'No'. If you want an on topic discussion, check out a book on the topic or take a class. But that's not really a discussion is it. My point being, Real life conversions dont stay on topic, learn to bring it back, in a way no one even notices you're stearing it.

Dio

>.> I think it was a joke.

I'd never find it.

The way to freedom.

I once heard a Faith Healer explain demons this way, to us laymen. A bird will fly over a man's head. He must keep shewing it away or it will build a nest in his hair. If the for some reason doesn't and that does build a nest in his hair will need someone to help get it out and wash the shit off. Demons will tell things and do things to man. As soon as one lets their guard down they will move in. I was taught Faith and Authority as a kid. I can only point to my teachers, like my mom and yes, the Bible.

LOL, funny this should come up, hmm Sin. I am Christian to other Christians, this is how I grew up. They love to 'save' you. This means a lot to me to see this, it is becoming rare anymore. Faith and a good moral foundation is disappearing now days and they might care about me too. I let them preach to me often and I ask questions that slowly get harder but they are things I want to know about their band. Note, never tell a 'Holy roller' ya talked to a Jehovah's Witness.

Wish there was more information here but here us something I know. No one can tell you, you do or don't have this or that. If right, it should only confirm what you already know.

Ok, the constitution says bear ARMS. Guns, knives, rpg, B52 any and all. Next the news will report a loose goose just to be first, not right. Also, the push has more to do with the fact that 'that guy' isn't runing for re-election.

I feel like an @$$ now. Sin ur still young. Shen said he wish had someone to tell him what he told you when he was young, assuming he would have heed. I lived with or near, well live next-door to my mom now. I worked part time in school, then full time and split my earnings with my mom. Then moved a friend into an empty room, who paid and put to guys, one on each couch who paid. One was Shen, lolzzz. When the house next door went up for sell, I'd saved enough for down payment. My mom still won't move in with me. I'm saying, get out but ya do a lot from any where. You've done a lot, don't stop now.

Please don't think you'll hate any job, its not the job. You enjoy life or you don't. This tread gave me ideas too.

A plan? Plans, actions do follow beliefs, making reality. What's your then? Looking for ideas.

There are more homeless and abandoned pets now more than ever. Want to learn from them? Feed them first.

Ok, don't go getting yourself shot or frozen on a fish. Just get a job, give one, anyone a try. Try more than one. I like ur idea Shen, almost. Sin, I found fast food, security, cleaning then, truck driving, its not for most. Truck drivers are the forgotten servant, non-hero, thank less slave. Ever think you four wheels are rude to each other, you all have a death wish around semi. This will teach anyone Christ like patience. Drivers touch more lives than any other personal, I can thank of. Without them you starve. They are not thanked, they are looked down at. They learn every day, everyone is new to us and an old friend. Driver has a driver's back when they don't know him and no one else will, we most likely to be robbed and killed. They know every day could be their last or their career could end or their freedom end, in a flash. Your life and other driver's our in their hands, great responsibility. They're very self reliant, we are alone out here. Another job like this yet more challenging, oil rig and oceanic tanker or shipping. These are also great learning jobs. Second thought, if someone does not want this kinda of job, we don't want you in. Have nice day.

I thought meditation meant focus your mind, on nothing or something. Sleep learning ay, that must give amazing dreams. Could be why the subject was well learned.

What's a Bodhisattva? And whats wrong with laughing at what ya read? I do half the time, rest time, I don't get it.

Might get with ShenLung on ideas for adding to your reading list.

The pursuit of happiness, means ya ain't got it. I knew a man that just couldn't be happy, he went looking and is in his own hell now. Turns out, he was sitting on it the whole time.

It's not scary at. It's a lot like guided meditation.

Lolzzz, this is why I say Christian'ish. When I say I'm a Reincarnationalist to other Christians I've two heads. But reincarnation answered a question for me. Why would God send people to hell, or into nothingness for just not being 'saved'? My God does not. I'm not 100% sure on 'Jesus' and that being born again thing, cuz John was written in Greek and he, Jesus would not have spoke Greek so likely never said this. The Greek was a play on words, in Greek, and a cordially to John Jesus meant bein born from above vs. born again. The word play was later lost. The church tried to take out reincarnation. Thankfully they missed most of it. "I want to go to heaven but I don't want to go tonight." Or for a long while.

It may be the frame work that is important. A strong house can look like $hit, while a rich house can sink in a mud slide.
