Here are a few books on the subject... https://www.amazon.com/Treating-Emotional-Trauma-Chinese-Medicine-ebook/dp/B072C84P7C/ https://www.amazon.com/Treatment-PTSD-Chinese-Medicine-Integrative/dp/7117123583/ https://www.amazon.com/Heart-Shock-Diagnosis-Treatment-Shen-Hammer-ebook/dp/B078WGYLC8/

I'm reserving my judgment until the end, and am hoping they'll tie things up in a cool way. Although my judgment won't be so harsh no matter what. I don't mind this last season...or even Star Wars. Easily entertained!

Why not? I'm interested to read a brief review from someone who wasn't into it, if you are willing.

That's pretty cool. I have a hard time believing things like this when it's so easy to edit videos and add effects...but if one could use their own camera filming him, and immediately after see this, that would be interesting.

That's very impressive to me.

I'm not really. Not anymore.

I wonder if he sees multiple alternative futures, depending on choices made. So, let's say that he questioned what would happen if he told Jon to just have sex with her, so as to avoid the firestorm...but then he saw something worse come about as a result. So he's forced to let numerous horrible things happen in order for a greater good to happen. Kind of like how so many died at Winterfell, but ultimately the threat was taken care of, in perhaps the single way that it could have been. Or he's just so cosmic that he truly is not all that human anymore, and barely cares, given the grand scheme of things.

He works in mysterious ways.

Oh yes, definitely. I don't want to stand on top of a mountain all day and night, holding a lantern.

There's going to be a book coming out very soon by Thomas Avery Garran, called, "Chinese Herb Cultivation: Daodi Practices for Growing and Processing Chinese Herbs" (Passiflora Press, 2019). It's supposed to be the most accurate/comprehensive on this subject. "Daodi" is what the methodology is called for growing Chinese herbs correctly. You could do a google search and find more info on it. There's an identification book, which helps one know whether an herb is a fake or the legitimate one. It has less to do with growing, but could sometimes be important for determining whether the plants you're growing are the right ones and not look-alikes. https://www.amazon.com/Chinese-Medicinal-Plants-Herbal-Substitutes-dp-184246387X/dp/184246387X/ High Falls is involved in attempting to grow Chinese herbs in the US (if that's where you're located). I haven't looked into them much, but apparently they have lots of info, and very knowledgeable people are involved with them. Mountain Gardens grows Chinese herbs, or variations and different species similar to them, although they're less accurate in terms of daodi cultivation. They have a workshop coming up with the author of the book that's coming out, which I first mentioned. https://www.amazon.com/Chinese-Medicinal-Herb-Farm-Cultivators/dp/1603583300/ This book is considered to be pretty basic.

Socrates said something along the lines of wisdom being knowing that you don't know many things. So I think it follows that as we become more and more wise, we can end up feeling more and more foolish about ourselves. Regarding others - the more foolish, the more dangerous they can be. So, it's wise to know who they are and not be destroyed by them. Some quick insights into a fool versus a wise person, in light of the tarot, for fun...not all there is to be said about it, and it may contradict some other interpretations of it... The fool turns away from the light. His head is high, assured of what he thinks is his wisdom (which is in fact just cleverness and stupidity), unaware of the truth. He isn't careful to support himself with his staff, so his footing on the ground of reality is unstable due to his own lack of precaution. His focus is on the external appearances of things, rather than the true reality of things, given his clothing. The dangerous nature of his foolishness is represented by the fact that he's about to walk off of the cliff. Not only is he about to become dangerous to himself, but the most loyal "man's best friend", who looks up to him, is about to go off the cliff as well - showing what happens to someone that's a good friend to others, who underestimates the dangerous nature of the fool. The white rose has a fragrance, which the fool has just smelled, representing "the finer things in life"...the fool thinks it's better to appease themselves with delights, than to truly be wise which is often the opposite of delightful. The hermit, or wise person, holds fast to the light. They have become aware of the darkness in the world, so in a sense, life isn't as bright and cheerful as it once when they were an ignorant fool. They have an aged appearance compared to the youthful fool, which means they've lived through things and learned. Their clothing isn't indicative of being focused on false appearances. With their staff, they support their footing in life, and instead of being about to walk off of a cliff, they have mastered the earth (become aware of reality) and stand safely upon the ground...which might even be the peak of a mountain, further indicating their mastery of reality, through being aware of truth. His head is low, knowing the cold and dark truth, as well as recognizing his own inadequacies fully, as opposed to being overconfident...in addition, the head bowed in prayer represents the inner light of wisdom and compassion, which he shines out into the world.

Doing this, individuals could get paid to be advertised to, rather than Facebook making money off of users being advertised to.

They call it nectar in those parts.

Ascend to the immortal islands.

There must be a synonym for that term.

This thread is for the discussion of whether rights (such as human rights, or what's referred to in the US Bill of Rights) exist or not. Copied and pasted below is a response I previously made on this subject (in which I assert that they do exist): ... Feel free to discuss!

I tend to agree. There are just some things I don't want to see, and would rather enjoy some fiction. If the video in question is fake, well, good. I had zero desire to check it out, though. Not that I'd be one of the types stopping others from doing so.

This is the general discussion forum, for "spiritual thought and practice" topics.

He also translated this, which is interesting and good: How to be upright amongst evil men by Carl von Eckartshausen (1752–1803).

Which enlightenment?

Or immensely cruel!

At times, the universe seems like a ruthless mother teaching her child how to be tough. The mother bites the child by the back of the neck, even drawing blood...to pull the child quickly out of danger. Or sends the child off alone into dangerous territory, among predators, while watching from a distance. At other times, there is rest and peace, and the universe is a loving and nourishing mother. Maybe tough love contains both. I don't know the real answer. Sometimes life gets incredibly hard! To the point where I don't blame you if you say that the universe or God or whatever, is hostile...I understand you. If the universe is truly indifferent, perhaps part of that has to do with cause and effect, and not pure randomness. So then it would go to show that if you're able to generate the right causes, life becomes easier. I'm not sure that's true, given how life can throw a curveball at any one of us, no matter how well off we are. But I'm certainly trying to defend against life's onslaughts.

Yes.
