So um as one does his or her spiritual practice one changes and so does the world. I was wondering what was the best meditation to change the world, like getting ride of all the injustices in the world and such? Thanks

in a word no. in a longer explanation if you want to stay fit and extend this precious life you have then kung fu qigong etc are the way to go but so is playing baseball. you still get your exercise. but this energy stuff is like frosting you can eat it or scrap it off. i know i am in the minority here with my views but they are just my views i could be perfectly sane for all i know. lol

yes i believe in reincarnation. i dont have memories but i have habbits that are lion like and i believe i was a lion in my previous life. life for instance i sleep like 12 plus hours a day. Its funny you say that it happened to you when you were 22 well i am 22 atm so your story resonated with me. Thanks

short answer yes i do. longer answer no i do not because spiritual stuff is spiritual stuff labels just define it dont label and you will be better off zazen or qigong both can work with internal energies both are meditation.

anyone know of any alt websites where one can ask questions and get answers like the tao bums? in similar subjects and have it not be so dogmatic and such?

so yeah i found out the lolcats have translated the whole bible into lolcat speak with ceiling cat as god and basement cat as the devil Link http://lolcatbible.com/index.php?title=Main_Page

Yep like what the master hsuan hua said "everything should be meditation even sitting on the toilet" i am paraphrasing of course.

Awsome furballz roflol

This should be moved to general discution cause well its avatar.

what do you recomend as a started for feng shui? cause i have seen bad stuff come from the black hat sect of feng shui and i really dont believe that placing my sofa a certain way can increase wealth. but your feng shui seems different taomeow i would like to leanr more about it. Thanks

So yeah in this sutra it states that the a werewolf made of ice cream who is ocnstantly running to keep from being melted made the world. lol i kid But in seriousness why do people debate and such over relgion? now a fun debate is fun sometiems but religion is like ice cream who is to say what flavor is supreme. or who can speak for another. what is your favorit flavor of ice cream? and if taoism were an ice cream what would it be? I might of asked this question before. i say strawberry why because where i grew up chritstianity is the main religion and so i say vanilla for that and buddhism was a thing that i was told was not right at an early age so chocolate for that one kind of the war between chocolate and vanilla. and i did not learn about taoism till i was like 15 so strawberry cause it is kind of the forgoten ice cream. Thoughts comments Ice cream ice cream cream cream ice that meens thanks in ice cream language

So anyone here ever use crazy wisdom to teach stuff? online or in real life? I have in my ice cream topics. what were your experiences with it? Thansk

lol rawksoup how is bob doing these days?

templetao why not just tell us?

so yeah this goes with the otherkin therian and furry spirituality. imagine a world where instead of humans we all were animals like lions and skunks and dragons and so forth. what animal and why do you think jesus krishna buddha lao tzu etc would be. I think jesus would be a lion cause he is the "king of kings" buddha deer cause i think he taught ine the deer park? krisha cow sacred lao tzu turtle long lived LOL kung fu panda http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2070263/ in truthfullness i forgot about this picture untill i had finished typing this and was about to hit post.

1 steal underwear 2 ??????????????? 3 profit I am wondering what is with the ////// on number 2?

I have read the wiki article and it said that the authorship is disputed like the tao te ching. it may not be authentic it might have been written by mice but that does not meen its words dont hold some truth. taoism may say attachment to this world but so does tantra in my understanding. use what you have to reach a goal emlightenement immortality etc. I agree what do we really know in this world? one day we knew for certain the world was flat and the next oh now we know it is round and even further still we now know it is more oblong in shape. as far as the buddhist taoist who shaped who in china the two are so tangled it is hard to say imo. Thanks

So i admit it i have an internet addiction. I check thetaobums around 5 to 10 times a day but my big problem is youtube and chat rooms. Since this is the main forum i visit i will be employing here the post it and leave it strategy. Basicaly i will visit this site once when i wake up and once around the time i go to bed. seeing as how i will only be on those two times i will not respond back to posts imediatly. For anyone else that is strugling with internet addiction i have a book for you it is only 3 bucks on amazon kindle http://www.amazon.com/Web-Rehab-addiction-Internet-ebook/dp/B006I7DPLU/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top Thanks

I am interested in your thoughts on the hua hu ching. I would like to see some sources and such. on the surface they buddhism and taoism could be different as night and day but once one dives deeper they start to have similaritys right? Thanks

Lol I feel like such a fan boy writing about this. but anyways do you think simba saw an external mufasa in the form of clouds and his real father or an internal mufasa in the form of himself? I kind of think it was internal because mufasa just say that he must take his place in the cirlcle of life. Plus it could be possible with a zen master such as rafiki. http://www.intmath.com/Differentiation-transcendental/rafi.jpg AS you can see he clearly is in full lotus and doing the guyan mudra. LOL I love being me.

ok this is creepy, so i presented a discution to my religious group on crazy wisdom. i had like 10 ish storyes of different crazy wisdom people from around the world like nasreddin and some zen stories and some chuan tzu and such well i ended the 2 week discution showing the clip of rafiki from the lion king as an example of crazy wisdom in pop culture. it suprised our head guy he does not watch much fiction and such like he had never heard or read the jungle book. but he liked the scene, anyways tonight i look for the scene that we watched and it says that disney removed it due to copywrite infiringment. It was the exact one we used. I just found it odd that we do this 3 weeks ago then all of a sudden disney removes it.

So what is enlightenment? can you quantify it? Hits self over the head with a staff a staff made of mahogany, space mahogany.

the lion in me loves to eat meat and meet and i cant stand vegtables.
