The truth is always the same everywhere and very simple. Ignoremuses with big egos make up things to look impressive; complicating systems to obscurity. The Hindu chakra system originally had only 3 chakras (the primary colours). The Chinese have 上， 中，and 下 丹田

There's only one reality. All systems refer to this same reality. Chakras and dantien refer to the same things.

Exactly. That’s the last thing nature needs, human attention, that’s what’s destroying it.

Yes. That’s the root.

So what is it in real life that you, old3bob, do to help the world?

To be part of any system, one has to be capable of remaining silent sometimes.

Every system needs to set boundaries.

PEACE TO THE WORLD In the Way of the Ancients: if I want to bring peace to the world, then I first must order my own country; if I want to order my country, then I first must unify my own family; if I want to unify my family, then I first must heal myself; if I want to heal myself, then I first must mend my heart; if I want to mend my heart, then I first must sort my thoughts; if I want to sort my thoughts, then I first must gain awareness of them; gaining awareness lies in coming to terms with being a soul in an animal body. A soul in an animal body, come to terms with, only after that may awareness be gained; awareness gained, only after that may my thoughts be sorted; thoughts sorted, only after that may my heart be mended; heart mended, only after that may I be healed; myself healed, only after that may my family be unified; my family unified; only after that may my country be ordered; my country ordered, only after that may the world be set at peace. ~~~ (part of 大學 The Great Learning, c. 5th cent.

Yes (and the Russian winter helped).

Hi steve. Welcome to the forum.

Yes it’s very hard to loose someone you love. Wishing you well.

That’s not heka, the ‘hexa’ in hexagon is from έξι ‘six’.

And likely English has the verb ‘to hex’ from ‘heka’.

The Dutch word for witch is ‘heks’. Oh, Google ‘etymology heks’: likely from the word “heka”.

Which Ancient Egyptian magic did you use?

I have a childlike trust in God, it is my biggest treasure. I am sorry for your loss.

Welcome to the forum.

in Dutch 'trap' means 'stairs'

I don’t do Push Hand. In daily living when ‘it’ pushes, I pull; when ‘it’ pulls, I push.

It only takes a critical mass of people to speak up to brake the spell. (the critical mass theory) Not scientifically underpinned, but I like it. :-)

Hi Ginger. Welcome to the forum.

Studies on young children suggest that morality is learned, not an instinct. Imo all systems do set moral rules for this reason, they have to come from the outside. Buddhists have e.g. the Five Precepts.
