  1. Only when a Man finally Realizes the Self-Love which that Man has within Himself for His Own Self without the need for any other Human (wife, girlfriend, parents, kids, siblings, friends) to Love Him back then can God within be reached by that Man.. Only when a Woman finally Realizes the Self-Love which that Woman has within Herself for Her Own Self without the need for any other Human (husband, boyfriend, parents, kids, siblings, friends) to Love Her back then can God within be reached by that Woman.. For when God within is reached, Man and Woman will have no more need for each other thus ending Samsara the Cycle of Rebirth and Death.. For it is only by Realizing the Self-Love which One has for Himself without the need to look for Love outside himself then can True Independence and True Freedom from Samsara be attained. For when you have Self-Love for yourself, what need do you have for spouse, family, kids, money, car, houses? Why else do you think the Sages and Hermits hide themselves in the mountains? Because they have no need for anyone and anything else. Why would anyone need anything and anyone else besides God?
  2. Do You Love Yourself?

    Do You Love Yourself? I Love Myself.
  3. TAOIST IMMORTAL LOVERS

    I can't imagine being with anyone for the rest of eternity. I get bored with people easily. Regarding Immortality and Immortals, you know what they said in Highlander. "There can be Only One"
  4. Falling in love and other spiritual tests

    Do you Love Your Self? Do you Love Your Wife? Do you Love G even if the friendship ends and you will never see her again? Do you need to have sex with G in order to Love her? Do you need to Possess G in order to Love her? If G finds a younger, richer, better looking man than you, would you still love G honestly, sincerely, openly without attachments without desires or would your heart be broken? Would you secretly wish for G to be miserable and alone for the rest of her life or would you give G your Biggest Blessings for her to find the Man of her Dreams and be the Happiest Person which she can be? Does it even matter?
  5. Yuanshi Tianzun (Chinese: 元始天尊; pinyin: Yúanshǐ Tīanzūn), the Celestial Venerable of the Primordial Beginning or the Primeval Lord of Heaven, is one of the highest deities of religious Taoism. He is one of the Three Pure Ones (Chinese: 三清; pinyin: Sānqīng), and is also known as the Jade Pure One (Chinese: 玉清; pinyin: Yùqīng). He resides in the Heaven of Jade Purity. It is believed that he came into being at the beginning of the universe as a result of the merging of pure breaths. He then created Heaven and Earth. Yuanshi Tianzun is said to be without beginning and the most supreme of all beings. He is in fact, a representation of the principle of all being. From him all things arose. He is eternal, limitless, and without form. How do you develop Love which is Pure? How do you think Buddha and Jesus and other Enlightened Masters develop Compassion for everyone? Do you think the Buddha and Jesus and other Enlightened Masters expect everyone in the World to Love them because they have achieved Enlightenment? Me thinks the Enlightened Masters have Love even for their worst enemy. For their Love is without Greed, without Lust and without Desire for Pleasure, Joy and Happiness. Their Love is Pure.
  6. "Forever Reign" You are good You are good When there’s nothing good in me You are love You are love On display for all to see You are light You are light When the darkness closes in You are hope You are hope You have covered all my sin You are peace You are peace When my fear is crippling You are true You are true Even in my wandering You are joy You are joy You’re the reason that I sing You are life You are life In You death has lost it’s sting [Chorus] Oh I’m running to Your arms I’m running to Your arms The riches of Your love Will always be enough Nothing compares to Your embrace Light of the world forever reign You are more You are more Than my words will ever say You are Lord You are Lord All creation will proclaim You are here You are here In Your presence I’m made whole You are God You are God Of all else I’m letting go [Repeat Chorus] My heart will sing No other Name Jesus Jesus
  7. You know, when you get into relationships with other people, invariably, other people's energies will influence and corrupt you. Especially when the both of you indulge in the emotional heart connections, the power which have sprung up over the last few years. The thoughts and energies from the other person will corrupt and pollute you through your heart and your thoughts and energies will corrupt and pollute the other person through his or her heart. Also think about this. When you love someone, do you love him or her even though he or she don't love you back? Will you love your worst enemy? Will you love a man or woman who has cheated on you and hurt you do deeply that you can cry out because of the pain to your heart? Jesus said when your enemy slaps you, turn the other cheek and offer your other cheek to be slapped by your worst enemy. If you love someone because that someone loves you back and gives you pleasure/happiness/whatever, the love which you have for the other person is impure and tainted by greed. Osho said the person who gives love is the Master and the person who takes love is the Slave. When you love someone else hoping that someone else will love you back and give you pleasure/happiness/whatever, you are actually being a Slave to that other person. If you truly want to be a Master of your own Self, then you will willingly offer your Love to anyone, especially your worst enemy, without seeking any happiness or pleasure in return. You would willingly Love your worst enemy without the need for your worst enemy to love you back in return. This would be what the Lord of Compassion, Chezerig and Avalokiteśvara means by having True Unselfish Compassion for only True Unselfish Compassion does not create any further Karmic linkages and connections between you and the other party. Even if you can't love other people because you are disgusted with their lifestyles, that is ok. At least work on yourself and love yourself. If you can't even Love yourself, how can you Love other people? If you think you are not worthy of Love from your own Self, then how can other people Love you?
  8. I have traveled and lived in many countries, met and talked to people of all cultures and all ages. What I have discovered about most people is that most people do not love themselves. This is why most people have to seek love and validation from their girlfriends, boyfriends, spouses, parents, family, kids, friends. It is as if most people feel unworthy if they are not loved by everyone. This is why shows like X-Factor, Britain got Talent and American Idol are extremely popular with peeps. In Taiwan as well, they have this asian singing contests/television shows which had been running successfully for the better part of the last decade. Everybody wants to get on these shows. Everybody wants to become a celebrity. Because they only feel loved, they only feel worthy if they are loved by a large number of people. Of course the money is good too for celebrities but I reckon it is the fame more than the money which draws people into the show business. This is also why no one and nobody dare to speak out against the shitty state of life on earth. No one dare to question why there is such a gap between the rich and the poor, the 1st world and 3rd world countries. No one dare to question why we are still driving bloody oil-consuming vehicles even though cars running on water have been invented in Japan since 2009. Also no one dare to question the Alien Invaders when they step out of line. Nobody wants to go against the grain, to go against the System, to go against everyone else because Humans basically want to be loved by everyone else. Almost no human have the courage to do what's right if it means being an outcast of society, if it means being hated by everyone else. You know, the group-think mentality, the herd mentality doesn't exist only in Japan. It exists everywhere even in the great land of freedom, The "United" States of America. It is the bloody media, bloody government and bloody schools and universities fault. The media, government, schools and universities have drummed deep into our psyche all of us have to be obedient citizen-slaves of the system. They place pressure on each of us to conform to the system or risk being an outcast and hated by everyone else. Humans lack the courage to stand up and do what's right because they lack the Self-Love which they have for themselves. If you Love yourself, you will never be hurt by other's criticisms because You are You and other people are other people. How can anyone else dictate how you should live your life?
