    ZOOM, I think we need to start saving up now... .
  4. Choosing Between Daoism and Buddhism

    Do you not have a day job, or no social life? Personally it is the social life that I don't do much, so I can focus on more than one practice..... that is one catch with more than one practice is that they all take time to become decent proficient at and actually get somewhere with.
  5. You don't gain anything from empowerments

    You do gain something from empowerments, LOTS of homework! So an interesting question I had, how does it turn out that the right students show up for these things? What if someone isn't ready, but they paid their $50 online and showed up?
  6. The Rainbow Body by Dr Nida Chenagtsang

    Apparently it is prudent to lock the meditation tent to keep the darn disciples out, so they don't screw up the process . Interesting vid/interview.
  7. Some pretty nice ones too . Not all as rustic as one might think http://www.offgridquest.com/homes-dwellings/building-methods/689-chinese-caves

  11. Noticed anything strange lately?

    Only about 10x the usual growth for herbs and plants that I use. Also some lasting way past their season, or having an odd second late season that they don't usually. And the ladybugs keep looking a little more unhealthy each year .

  16. Malcolm Pees on The Tao Bums

    The protector spirits have no idea how good I am at finding rare books . Though I'm guessing it's more like someone wouldn't understand a particular book if they are not yet ready, or not meant to use it.
  17. Malcolm Pees on The Tao Bums

    I read the entire thread on that other site, interesting . Now I'm paranoid to read anything lol. Sutras seem safe, will stick with sutras... *puts away flight of Garuda* Though how I wish that people would take Western magic books, most especially grimoires, this seriously!
  18. You don't gain anything from empowerments

    OK, OK, so you do gain something from empowerments . (lose lots of stuff too though!) Thank you everyone for the great insights into these things. I'm glad I started the thread.
  19. What if the universe was to end?

    How many folks would check TTBs during the 2 weeks?
  20. What if the universe was to end?

    Stop getting in my own way, and distracting myself for 2 weeks straight. Some amazing things could happen I figure . Also the whole nothing left to lose place people get to sometimes in their lives has some very amazing growth potential.
