  1. Pythagorean/ Inner Sound New Blog? Address?

    On vacation? finished with public life?
  2. Is man's nature violent or peaceful?

    embodiment of compassion eating animal flesh, he is a fraud. flesh eating demon. man is at peace when the body is pure.
  3. Love Conquers All

    Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Sent Peace Message To ISIS, Received Photo Of Beheaded Man "I tried to initiate peace talks with the ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) recently but they sent me a photograph of a beheaded body of a man. Thus, my effort for a peace dialogue with the ISIS ended," Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said. "I think the ISIS does not want any peace talks," he told reporters in Agartala. "Hence, they should be dealt with militarily." Ha... http://www.ndtv.com/india-news/sri-sri-ravi-shankar-sent-peace-message-to-isis-received-photo-of-beheaded-man-1398207 You'd think India would know better by now... 500+ years?
  4. Nationalism, Globalisation and Taoism

    Nation in origin means blood/ birth, similar to tribalism, though on a larger scale I suppose. I would say there is a relationship between a nation and land also.
  5. Love Conquers All

    Europeans at this point have mastered the art of self annihilation if Indian saints or Buddhists want an example to follow.
  6. Love Conquers All

    That is the point. I would question his awareness for even making the attempt. Anyhow.
  7. Nationalism, Globalisation and Taoism

    If all nations adhered to what Lao Tzu suggests I think there would be much more peace. Each being content in their own ways, self sufficient and not seeking to meddle in the affairs of other nations.
  8. yes, virtue in simplicity
  9. What is the recommended diet?
  10. I would say people need to stop thinking they are losing something or making some sacrifice and see that they are gaining something. Obverse animals in the wild, they have mating seasons, once per year to procreate, and they are all of exceptional vigor, strength etc. There is no need for any special practices, this is perhaps the problem, do not put much thought into it, you set what you want and drop that which doesn't serve you, say I have not had alcohol in over 2 years. I do not meditate daily to control myself or do any special practice, I saw it was not benefiting me and cast it from my life in one moment. Is a stag practicing celibacy? Or just being natural? I would say you can connect with some women more so with this, some there will be no energy, others there will be a resonance of a kind, magnetic/ intuitive connection. I don't think we are suppose to connect with all people. I was in the city the other day walking past many people, one woman I went past though sparked my heart and a very pleasant feeling pulsed through my body. I kept walking. No attachment, gratitude for the brief encounter. Like a butterfly in spring. The building energy I at times when inhaling move upward and through my entire body, very simple little time or effort. I think the energy of it's own will start to do this. I have trust in the awareness of the body. You will have more profound experiences I think, and the other will seem like a shadow in comparison. People are stuck on this shadow not knowing any greater. Just another approach to things which can carry over into other. A lucid dream recently with this beautiful woman, a very pleasant "orgasmic" dance of a kind, maybe like the yin and yang rotating around each other. There was hardly any physical contact. It is just a change in approach. Enjoy and continue on. My experience so far anyhow.

    "Many practices in the old days were geared towards the achievement of immortality. Taoists ate pine needles, cones and resin in the belief they made their body parts more durable. They avoided eating grain because it was believed that grain nourished death-causing demons in the heart, brain and stomach. Taoist drugs and breathing exercises often were intended to suppress these same demons." http://factsanddetails.com/china/cat3/sub10/item92.html

    Reminds me of Anastasia from the Ringing Cedars, living in great friendship with animals. Which reminds me of Empedocles speaking of the Golden Age 130. And all creatures, both animals and birds, were tame and gentle towards men, and friendliness glowed between them.

    What was your experience, if you may? For example, around 7 days of mangoes only I started to experience bliss and a very subtle communication with the Mango Tree, I thanked it for it's divine fruits, nourishing me wonderfully. I believe diet is of greatest importance, once that is established meditation and so on.

    Same can be said of pharmaceutical drugs "drug deaths have risen considerably since then -- documents 106,000 deaths per year from the "adverse effects" of FDA-approved prescription medications." The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Vol 284, No 4, July 26th 2000, authored by Dr Barbara Starfield, MD, MPH, of the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health. Yes, important to research all these things. Maybe she had kidney damage from aspirin or vaccines...who knows. I know a number of young women who now have ovary problems after the HPV vaccine. Don't wish to make this a debate about vaccines though.

    Hm interesting, that site sparked my initial interest in pines and pine sap as medicinal. Distilled pine sap is a folk medicine known to be very effective in destroying parasites and related, which the ancient Taoists considered to be demons (parasites are demons), that manipulate us in many ways, cravings/desires, emotions that are self destructive, their desire being to eventually consume us in full. So they take away our life force, clarity, consciousness etc difficult to become an Immortal/ strive for longevity or general optimal health when you basically have vampires feeding on your vital energies constantly. I was reminded of this recently, it had slipped my mind. I think the Taoist are correct. I have tried small amounts, drops of distilled pine sap recently and found a boost in energy, clarity, vision. I don't recommend anyone do this though. If interested to research thoroughly. People have lots of different responses. My diet has been mostly whole-foods vegan for the past near 3 years. With water fasting and related throughout. Minimal grains and in my 20s so I'd say my physiology is a lot clearer than most, there will be different reactions. I tried some in sugar after a breakfast of grapes and was feeling very good. Taking it without food is very interesting though. It seems the ancient Immortals went through a transition of removing themselves from earthly food and the bugs/demons within that hold us here through that.

    Thank you Taoist Texts! Yes, reading of say eating pine sap of a 1000 year tree will give immortality etc. The Pine Tree with many positive associations. Pine sap is of particular interest, any thoughts on distilled pine sap?
  18. Pine Trees

    Are there additional/ more in-depth texts regarding pine sap and it's physical and meta properties?
  19. Happy Monkey Year!

  20. Removing Chakras

    Thoughts? new to the idea. Apparently the chakra system is a low level energetic system for a low energetic artificial planetary matrix. This can be transcended/ use of conscious intent. I guess similar to the situation Neo was in.

    Does there have to be an energy loss? why not just a higher resonance, a stronger electromagnetic field emanating from a person, self contained like a torus though influencing the space around it.
  22. flouride - putting it in the water

    Some would call it covert chemical warfare

  24. "you say you love rain..."

    I go running in rain and storms, I bask in the Sun, I love to be outside and feel the wind move around me.
