and there is the sargasso sea which is good for some sea creatures and seaweed but not for row boats...so don't get caught in that although there might be some creatures and organic non-gmo plants you could eat?

find the captains voyage details with Apech's commentary mixed into the, "Is it over, the Tao bums fall" which is located in the rabbit hole forum.

get as many chores done as possible before the snow flys: paint the outside of house if needed and calk windows where needed get firewood ready, check and or clean chimney pipe do whatever work your vehicles need, along with new all season or snow tires if needed trim trees and bushes soon and put down winter fertilizer for the lawns make sure your furnace is in good order (call a company to check it) and get spare air filters for it make sure that any water pipes will not freeze by being exposed and also drain and roll up water hoses mend fences and gates if needed take a break and have a good cup of coffee and listen to some good music waterproof your boots and organize winter clothing, including getting a new coat if needed attend your favorite college football games and cheer your head off while analyzing plays pray & give thanks for your next breathe and the power given to do all the things you love and for those you love last but not least check to see if Nungali finished his daring ocean voyage

I don't know about such movies being relaxing, with them being more like an adrenalin fix. Btw. most of the zombie type of movies are so over the top gory and sick that I turn off their bad mojo.

a lot of people have moved away, more so lately because of the very high costs for housing and most everything else. The world is getting smaller so to speak because of higher populations resulting less available resources, but most people still want to live where the climate is fairly warm and sunny like in parts of California, compared to say somewhere like northern North Dakota.

Big parts of California and several other areas were predicted to sink into the ocean decades ago! I see the real possibility of that with or if radical enough earthquakes take place, thus such are not that far fetched of predictions. I've been in a couple of fairly strong earthquakes and it is not a good feeling when buildings shake and roads buckle. (and you can't get away from same) there are also the deadly tsunamis' that occur with earthquakes in which a great many people have perished! As for atomic war which Master Logray mentioned if it comes to that and is major enough then it could take countless years (millions+ maybe?) for the Earth to recover but She will recover. We have lots of manmade things that mankind has generally kept in working order and ecosystems and life that "nature" has kept in order (both often taken for granted) which are now unraveling in radical ways....higher forces have mitigated parts of such chaos through the ages in normally unseen ways but they can only do so much to help mankind if we repeatedly break the laws meant to keep balances in the material and spiritual worlds for Karma is relentless and can not be put off or kicked down the road forever. Btw and in that sense things are perfect per the working of karma on all scales. Btw. I'd say it is very important to know and remember that evil has no inherent root and can not prevail over that which does, for it can only steal and corrupt with lies, fear, greed and willful malice and so in the end self-destructs! "Something" (namely goodness) has always been "in the air" but forms of air pollution so to speak have often covered it up here on earth but as that clears the sun and sons and daughters shine their revealing light.

It looks like the "Age of Aquarius" love in has gone down a deep rabbit hole somewhere being that most indicators now point towards millions or billions of years of setback as some of us along with demonic/adharmic forces drastically degrade the Earth realm where many souls normally need to reincarnate, (per karma and aspects of human evolution) Earth's ancient soul of beauty will recover Her full strength but it will take millions/billions of years of earth time, although only a "blink of an eye" in spiritual time ... in the meantime it's likely many of us souls will be limited to various realms or in limbo, a few will make it to the pure/heavenly realms and beyond (since its always 5 o'clock somewhere), and many will suffer in the hell realms... I'm sorry to be a party pooper but it looks like many of the lovely "plans of mice and men" mentioned here for "enlightenment" and or cultivation will be setback since they also need to include good Earth realm energy with a certain amount of a dharmic atmosphere/balance as part of their whole package to come about, that is for souls with human karma's. (which in the end does come about)

umm, some have overcome ... and countless hope for better days compared to all the violence going on, btw I'd say our lives on Earth are also a testing and learning realm (thus a purposeful function) to see how we deal with experiences of going through rounds of good and bad karma's. And someday in someway come to balance in harmony both individually and in greater populations.

is that a rhetorical question? humankind is supposed to be stewards and keepers of life on Earth, which is a place or role in the universe. (not grandiose but important)

right, ultimately none of the incredible flux of duality can reach or upset the Self (aka. the one of us that is within the zillions of us) which is just fine regardless of what is happening in all the various realms and to beings.... saying that is easy but not so easy for the zillions of us to be and know beyond regular knowing even though we are.

watch out for those big waves !

there is a view where the whole kit and caboodle goes poof...

galaxies, oh you mean those tiny specks of light?

right, becoming a new version of hate against what one hates is counterproductive, yet the spiritual battles and wars must still be fought in whatever form or in whatever realms they are taking place, trying to appease or look the other way against evil is dangerously naïve (including rambling on and on about non-duality or that everything is somehow ok) and brings about a greater suffering of fools play! (terrible patterns have repeated over and over again for many millions of suffering people through the ages who can't just instantly escape to an astral or causal heaven; I've also been on the other side and seen or shown some things )

Leave the wildlife alone and it may leave you alone, row boats on the ocean don't stand a chance otherwise...

is this sucker for real!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men (or just knowledge from books alone) couldn't put Humpty together again. and from the Bible: "If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing."

it says a lot of different things, where does it say that?

met a guy who swore he saw a bunch of little gray aliens close by when as he was outside late one night! (near a small town in southern Utah) Btw, there was a report of technical problems taking place at underground U.S. ballistic missile site at the same time of UFO sightings.... "Public claims by Robert Salas In August 13, 1996, the Great Falls Tribune published an article about Robert Salas and his story of a UFO report associated with the Echo Flight malfunction.[6] Robert Salas had been a 26 year old Air Force Lieutenant during the 1967 malfunction.[6] According to Salas, on the night of the malfunction, he was assigned to the underground capsule at the complex.[6] According to Salas, a security guard on the surface contacted him to report flying objects in the distance doing strange maneuvers; Later, guards reported seeing a glowing red object hovering above the front gate.[6] According to Salas, minutes later the complex's ten Minutemen nuclear missiles went offline.[6] The red object reportedly disappeared and maintenance crews took a full day to restore the system to operational status.[6] In the August 1996 piece, Salas denies being a "UFO junkie" and doesn't suggest extra-terrestrial involvement; He further says he wants to find answers to the mystery, requesting anyone with information to contact him.[6]"

I see there are kits for adding a riding mower to one's boat, could help for long trips like yours

umm, many Buddhists not unlike many humans have various vested interests and will not give such up, even if leading to battles or wars. interestingly somewhere in Buddhist doctrine (i don't recall at the moment) the historic Buddha spoke of even giving up Buddhism (after it served its purpose) anyone out there have examples of that happening ? Same deal for most all religions under the sun....

there are more cars painted in various shades of gray these days, he didn't say anything about black which I've seen painted on the exterior of modern homes which to me seems to give a prison compound like vib. while black cars have a bad ass vib.
