  2. Thoughts about God

    Lord who? Lord Jesus ! He wears boots Always thought he wore sandals !!! Who is this sassy Mis Info Just for the record my current view is Jesus is a fictional character. Other thoughts on Jesus is he is the Sun(of g_d). 12 disciples = 12 Houses of the Zodiac. Holy Trinity - Sun, Moon and Earth. Definition of Belief: An acceptance that something exists or is true, especially one without proof.

  7. Watching The Birds

    Chase, our miniature toy terrier doesn't like the pigeons and barks furiously at them - they pay no attention to him though as they are bigger than him!!! Entertaining though!
  8. Thoughts about God

    the ego provides an onslaught of thoughts, in the search for g_d. alas, we'll all get lost in the all consuming fog! and some of us will disappear maybe forever, down a black hole or three; but will be kept company by the shadows of insanity! Lenny Gazbowski©2014
  9. Any movie about daoism ?

    Tracks - Amazing film, and wow I really do like camels! Brave lady though, to take on such a project. Many off shoot moments in this film, and one to watch again and again. Thanks for recommending this delightful film which encourages inner and outer exploration!!! Joke: what do you call a camel with three humps? Answer: Humphrey
  10. What the Hell?

    tongue in cheek comment: the newborn baby screaming his/her lungs out is the realization that he/she has arrived in hell Many years ago I had some very good Bahai friends, and they were a tower of strength when things where 'hellish' !!! But I could not settle into the Bahai Faith, I've tried a few religions over the years but came to the conclusion that I am not suited to rituals and dogma!!!
  11. What the Hell?

    Just remembered that the Bahai Faith has something to say about heaven and hell, and in a nutshell they are merely emotional states - and many of us have been to both places! http://reference.bahai.org/en/t/o/BNE/bne-154.html
  12. Watching The Birds

    Here goes!!! I'll start with this photo taken earlier this evening!!!
  13. What are you watching on Youtube?

    watched this tonight and it was a good presentation - artists and musicians as modern shamans.
  14. What the Hell?

    the mind provides the ingredients for us to visit 'hell.' and anywhere else you'd like to go!
  15. Watching The Birds

    been blessed to see plenty of bees this summer, and have some decent photos too. when I sort out how to post the photos I will! also seen a few ladybirds which has been nice, and lately their has been an increase in butterflies. we have two apple trees and observing how Mother Nature works has been, well, mind blowing!!! I love Mother Nature - even the slugs n snails - as long as they leave my tomato plants alone!!!
  16. Thoughts about God

    Mark Twain - India has 2,000,000 gods, and worships them all. In religion, other countries are paupers; India is the only millionaire.
  17. Thoughts about God

    To be honest I have no 'concrete' thoughts about g_d. We can theorize all we want about what g_d is or is not, but in my humble opinion its a waste of time and energy. Hopefully no one will find my words offensive!!! I have been banned from a 'spiritual' forum because I said organised religion is nothing more than mind control. The religious members were offended and couldn't bring themselves to forgive me - turn the other cheek!!! The term I prefer when discussing this subject is, Source. I have no clue as to what the Source is, but am of the opinion that all Life comes from the Source. Creating ego influenced g_d's appears to be a popular pastime on our planet!
  18. Watching The Birds

    we have moved home and are blessed to have a wonderful variety of birds in our garden! We have sparrows, seagulls, robins, pigeons, wood pigeons, blackbirds and more!!! My favorites are the seagulls and sparrows! One bird, a crow, I have nicknamed Davros(leaders of the Daleks!) My affinity with seagulls comes from my many months spent in hospital, one in particular became a regular visitor to my room on floor 8! In fact, we became friends!!! I will post some photos soon.
  19. Any movie about daoism ?

    Recently watched 'The Signal' which is a sci-fi with a number of twists in it. The chap who played the character Morpheus plays an excellent part. It is well worth a viewing and it can be seen as a nod to Taoism. I do like sci-fi movies, and also would add that A Space Odyssey 2001 also has a Tao flavor.
