200 ? I said 2000 - but maybe I mistook your 'as well' meaning ? When I lived in South Australia - 'Little Dessert' we would drive 200 km to see a drive in movie That was way back . It was a private affair, basically a field with a big screen and space for about 20 cars, if that . Cows were still in the field , sometimes they would wander in front of the screen and look dimly at the cars flashing their lights and blasting their horns to scare them off .... with the screen with a cow shadow and the cow psychedelically illuminated with parts of the film projected on to them all gone now though Im now dying to know ... where do you live (just generally , an address is not required )

Oldbob ...... Always talking about yourself !

and here I was thinking you were writing about an articulated lorry .... or had regressed to 1950 ( sic joke .... and another one ..... not a sick joke , but 'spelling incorrect joke ) anyways; here is a story, some explorer dude ( name cant remember - someone looking to find the NW passage I think ) had a smart idea ; before I go on the big trip, do a small one, meet the locals and learn how to survive up there . Good move ! What if we get shipwrecked and have to survive in the ice and snow ? No problems the locals say, we will show you, so they go out on a trek , show him how to cut snow blocks , make an igloo , spread their skins and furs out , with smooth skins facing the inside . The group of men strip off naked , smear each other with walrus fat and all get into the giant sleeping bag together . American dude is .... Come on ... get in ... we all keep each other warm . Uh - arrr . You can sleep in the middle ! Uh -arrrmmmm 'Ill just sleep in the corner over here .'' ''But you will freeze !'' Dude spent the night in the corner with several sets of cloths on freezing his arse off ! I saw another one ; woman in igloo making dinner . She got a chunk of whale blubber and started chopping and chopping it until it was a near liquid mess . My God! That is dinner ? No, it wasnt . She put it in a little tray and then got a strip of hide and cut it * cross ways, half way through into a sort of fringe . She rubbed blubber on it and twisted each bit of fringe into a point and then set the whole strip into the front of the tray, inside between the tray wall and the blubber ... so a line of little tufts was across the front . What in earth is she doing ? Then she got a flint and made a spark at it . The end tuft caught alight and the flame spread along lighting all of them in a perfectly formed line of little even flames , just like a good gas jet does . She cooked over that and then it was left as a heater . Wow ! * Oh , and the knife ? I have seen some beautiful ancient examples that I mistook for 'modern' cutlery . How they do that ? Handle walrus ivory and the metal ? They had a huge meteorite that they used ..... for many many generations ..... until the USA stole it from them ! '' The "Cape York meteorite," or "Innaanganeq," was a significant mass of meteoric iron that fell in Greenland, with large fragments later acquired by the United States and moved to the American Museum of Natural History for display and study, a process that involved the controversial exploitation of the indigenous Inughuit people and the collection of human remains alongside the celestial rock '' .... and now in its 'rightful place' and it isnt the only case ! https://drpetermartin.wordpress.com/2022/06/23/confronting-the-colonial-histories-of-the-innaanganeq-meteorite/ .

As much as mark is liked here ... that seems to be his dynamic ... I find it a bit too much as well But dont worry as you wanted to know about a process in Taoism and he is talking Buddhism Oh, by the way , I know what you mean and yes I have felt / sometimes do feel that . Eventually one can get to a place where one can experience , or at least feel , life without all those things that 'bring us down' and experience life and being alive , in the pure state its rather ecstatic .... a natural state of 'eudamonia ' . . If you 'move with it ' it will 'look after you' , and that is a great feeling . My indigenous teacher simply refers to 'it' as 'Big Mum' . He can just wander off into the wilderness naked and survive happily , and he has taught many young men the same . Of course to 'flow in this way with nature' takes understanding , knoweldge , practice and initiation , but once you have that 'under your belt' ( and many believe one cannot live properly without that process ) , life can be lived as it was meant to be lived . - I was tying to keep things uncomplicated ... I hope it worked .

Damn !

Can you please pass on my thanks and appreciation to them and let them know that someone as distant and safe as I am are aware of their plight and support them . Without people like them .... where would we be ? There is another dynamic involved . ISIS fighters were so brainwashed that they think they will be rewarded in various ways in heaven for 'honorable battle ' ..... maybe so ... IF it is 'honorable ' . What is honorable about what you described here in what they do ? But still that is what they think, if they die in battle it is honorable and ;straight to heaven . But here is the catch ; to them , it is NOT honorable to be killed in battle by a WOMAN ... no reward there ... what an ' insult ' . So when Kurdish women's forces advanced in strength they retreated . I liked one pf their commanders , a big motherly friendly woman who 'look after my girls ' , you can see 'the girls' look up to her as well . I remember one interview with her , she seemed so sweet and motherly , but then got serious and 'ISIS want to come to a village and kill and rape the women and girls , hurt little children and enslave people ? Then I have something for them ... ' Her look changed to ferocious and she lifted a nasty piece equipped with multiple rounds and a rocket launcher ! Here she is ; Shamal Ahmad (Hmmmm ... after 5 edits and trying everyway I know to get around an image posting here , her picture will just not show .... it comes up in the post before I post it but not after ... why does this site do that sometimes ? very annoying ... maybe a new window ? ) Can we agree she is fighting 'black magic' ... or at least 'evil' ? Interesting info, thanks .

I suppose so , it is just 'up the coast a bit ' ..... Aussies style , ie, 2000km

I looked out my kitchen window on dawn as I was getting water and .... my bottle tree looks different .... that was not there yesterday . still in dark silhouette against the sky .... hmmmmm ... very suspicious , I know what's going on here . Two 'froggies' * cuddled up together against the cold ... pretending they are not there . * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tawny_frogmouth 'No , you are not a branch ... I can see your eye ! ' one can get very close ... and they freeze ...... 'No one here but some old gnarly wood .' front on view ; They usually hang around for a few days , but this time of year, they may have a nest nearby . I have seen them a few times here around the cabin ; once a mum with three little ones lined up along the branch . They have a nice night call too

Well, it would 'in the street ' I am supposing you mean some type of .... 'other worldly ' attention ? Not surprising considering some say it is the language of angels , under that reasoning I suppose it would be like ( for the 'angels' ) . being in a foreign country in a crowd and hearing a lot of babble , and then someone starts speaking English . It has a rather different effect on me though ; mostly working as a 'reactive' in that (and a few have reported the same ) it can give 'magical results' more than other systems ..... vivid and detailed visualizations and 'journey' . There is 'attention' again . What happens when 'attention is brought' ? Beware ! The wardrobe had a magnificent walnut veneer that started to lift ( I live in a fluctuating climate ; hot / cold, wet / dry ) , a huge job so I decided to remove it and sand and stain what was underneath . The restorer gushed on about how that was a good idea and how good it would come up with a whitewash look . I was horrified . no no no , I hate that ! Yuk ! It looks like someone got half way through a restoration and it got too hard so they gave up . ''No no no ... I want it a dark wood tone color . '' Response was worried and it isnt fashionable and blah blah but it got done my way . I want to visit this place , but its a bit of a long drive north - the town got totalled by a cyclone and had to be rebuilt ... here is an idea , let's rebuild the town Art Deco style ! - Innesvale Qld. We have one or two such styled in my local town It used to be a bank , sat empty for a while . Somehow a woman in town got the owner .... or probably just the real estate agent to let her hold a party there ... wow what a party that was ! ( worth its own thread ) They will never let that happen again ! It got sold, and as far as I know still remains , to a couple that seemed to have been there for years and making a mint ..... on affirmation cards and other new age type printed things ! Big biz in that apparently - if you can 'crack it ' . Oh yeah .... we get a few 'strange ' ones on daobums .... occasionally Then , you are now 'vintage '

'Witchcraft' / black magic is also a problem in Africa . Its especially nasty in a few cases where children have been involved . - and I dont mean people and kids in a circle 'calling up the devil' , it can involve kidnapping , slavery, imprisonment torture and murder .

... and the Kurds in general . As well as having all sorts of trouble on 'all sides' (of Kurdistan ) they often get used by governments to do things those governments dont want to face , and then after, get abandoned to face the repercussions themselves .. treating them like pawns in the game of chess . I have a few older posts here on the YPJ ;

So , pointing out what YOU said is being 'unnecessarily negative ' ? Keep em coming big fella !

Not while painting it , but it did, as recommended , dispel confusion about how the 'Enochian Universe' is structured and gave a varied insight into color correspondences . The 'high strangeness' comes after the construction and during 'usage' with Enochian calls . What do you mean by 'dope art ' ? I named the style of the wet room ; hippy rain forest art deco shiek Its also decorated with some green crystal point rock samples and a big chunk of .... ? green silvery stuff with quartz streaks, whose name I cant remember . It got used in an advert for shower products . the look I am going for in the cabin is a little earlier though ; end of art deco - I inherited some old family furniture , similar to; exact same chair but ... in a 'maroon' heavy weave . Complimented with some other local items , same period , Australian red ceder exactly like this one . Not an issue for me as its mostly the soft furnishings , walls are wood - local mixed hardwood with 'silky oak' trim . . Ooooooo - la - lah ! I'm a big fan and often comment on clothing style and if done well, cut matching body 'style ' .... I will gush on and on about it . The two lesbian woman that run a cafe in town I would talk to about that , feel the texture of nice clothes and make suggestions about style .... they were sure I was gay as they insisted I was to my friend ... she had to say '' Nope ... I am sure he isnt ... due to personal experience . '' I often have to stop myself doing the same to strangers !

... if you ever go to court do not say anything ! get a lawyer !

'' I guess I might say western alchemy is Sir Isaac Newton exposing himself to toxic levels of mercury attempting to refine a philosopher's stone (elixir). '' Thats ^ you '' Bruh '' Now both feet are in it

'Modern ' black kitchens ..... yerks !

You are psychic ! Just as I posted that MF tractor pic and info I thought ..... OldBob would like this and the screen popped up notification you posted .

Its also employed in Magick, as you probably know . I once drew up and painted a full set of Enochian squares , doing that is an interesting exercise in color Also I am big on interior decorating . My latest , a separate 'pod' shower / wet room ; connected to the cabin by raised decking from the back veranda to the wet room veranda , a lot of large glass panels ceiling to floor that look out to the forest and a three tone green random patter subway tile . To off set that I ran a thin 'accent strip' of long thin tiles ; silver , crystal and mother of pearl . I did use grey but that is the floor tile that has multi colored river stones set into it and matches the grey grout between the green tiles . It was a risk, with a chance of looking garish , but I manged to pull it off (according to observers ) . The wood is a teak and has silver boarding strips between the wood and tile . Something about the green and silver together made the grey work better . Bedroom has a lot of windows too , mostly out to the forest , one side has a view out to the escarpment on the other side of the valley , but inside its wood and soft furnishings mostly a muted 'Bengal red ' a type of deep red or burgundy . It also goes good with the wood tones . I find tones are important for matching ; eg the green view and the red furnishings . Sometimes garish color mixes work with right tones and good mixes may not work with bad tone choices . I like your point about responses . When I did some teaching there was a color segment in it , the kids didnt get this point so I put up a huge sheet of white paper and then a bright red splashing dripping wide brusk bright RED across it .. and they were all 'Arrrrgggh ' , then I took that down and did a watery soft pastel blue soaking straek and they were all ' Ahhhhhhhh .... ' But also think shiny grey restored old Massey Ferguson The epitome of 'efficient non-modern ' ; everything makes sense and on inspection one can figure out how to fix it and it comes with a single multi use tool that you can use to do do a near total dis-assembly ! And the three primary colors . Here is an interesting offshoot to my 'Universal 3 : 4 theory ( that every thing has an underlying 'ideal' pattern of 3 that manifests in a 'real' pattern of 4 ) There is no primary color , its a concept ; 'pure' red, blue , yellow . But in nature it is said there are four 'natural colors' ; red , blue, yellow and green . yes; color, texture, lighting , scale, proportion , but also tone and saturation . I wondered what AI has to say about my interior .... I tried bengal red , but it gave a tyopical red response , so I tried maroon and it was more accurate ; '' Maroon primarily evokes feelings of sophistication, confidence, warmth, and strength. As a deep, muted shade of red, it carries connotations of luxury, ambition, and inner peace, while its strong undertones can also suggest passion, authority, and passion. In a space, it can create a cozy, luxurious, and grounding atmosphere. '' especially my bed which has a dark maroon / deep red shiny velvet color cover ... sumptuous, someone descibed it as . I think I would have to leave within 15 mins .

How did he say all that without moving his mouth .... AND apparently teleporting all over the place !

Did you get embarrassed and have to remove it ?

Certainly ! Not even those practicing 'black magic' but modern people that have a variant traditional 'affiliation' - for Iraq he Kurdish Yazidis spring immediately to mind ; '' The Yazidis, or Azdis, frequently called "Devil Worshippers" are a small and obsure religious sect (numbering about 100,000) of western Asia. They are scattered in Syria and Southern Russia, but are concentrated chiefly in the mountains of Kurdistan and Sinjar Hills near Mosul in Northern Iraq.'' - a long history of oppression, suppression and violence against them ; https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/229404134.pdf Yemen ? All one has to do is pass by through the straights there - let's face it, some of those people will do violence to people of the same religion ! Just a different 'branch' of the one they belong to .

Hmmmm ..... you have an unusual ability to not just stick stubbornly with a mistaken point you made ( ie. 'overgeneralisation' ) and when you get more specific - the part I bolded - I agree with you as that does not fit into the real purpose of 'ethnogens' . Maybe you could explain your unusual ability to Sanity Check ?

Oh ? My health ? lets re run this in case you were not following yourself . Our own home grown Homer here , first posts some comment about 'guessing ' what alchemy is . I observe people here dont seem to want to know what it is or there is ignorance about what it is . And then Homer pipes up and says it is a sign of intelligence not to comment if you dont know what it is ..... but he just commented on what it was without knowing the definition . I never seen any one 'step in it ' so efficiently ! And you dont even seem to realise when you step in it . And when its pointed out he moans I am being 'unnecessarily negative ' Dude ! .... I mean .... ''Bruh '' ... you crack me up ! .

Oh Cobie ......... I caught you out eh ?
