  1. I've asked the other mods if they are ok with this. Just waiting for any comments.
  2. I like this one
  3. Can I have suggestions for the best title? Indigenous belief systems? Native religions? ????
  4. Yeah its a funny word which seems to have changed meaning. Maybe we could use it if we do decide to set up a sub. Look forward to see what others think.
  5. There's men and women and there's male and female principles. A man is not 100% male and a female not 100% female - we are all a balance between 60/40% to 51/49%. So any individual has both male and female principles within which they need to balance, transmute and integrate. The maiden which the knight rescues represents the naked reality of the pure feminine consciousness (voidity) and the knight is the probing male questing consciousness which is seeking out the reality of the feminine. The dragon is the chaotic forces which obscure and prevent to perfect 'marriage' of the knight and the maiden.
  6. I'm not against the idea although I'm not sure it would get much traffic. Also what counts as 'indigenous' given I am indigenous to England ... would that count? Maybe it would be better to have threads in Western Esoteric on Native American, African, Aboriginal beliefs?
  7. In order to perfect your meditation it is very important to not stop thinking.
  8. The ultimate unpopular opinions

    I’ve started using one called Perplexity because I found Grok to be both too chatty and also too prone to just making stuff up to please me. Like you most of my questions are practical - in my case just a certain laziness when it comes to mental arithmetic.

    Texts are dross.
  10. It’s probably a server problem plus the license is due for renewal. Someone has contacted the owner but I’m not sure if he has replied.

  12. Turmeric

    Turmeric is really being pushed in my timeline. Has anyone any experience with this? Does it really reduce inflammation???

    From Castaneda?
  14. Damo Mitchell - Need Advice

    Devon in England I believe.
  15. Damo Mitchell - Need Advice

    I read the part on Damo Mitchell and just a couple of minor comments. I agree that visualisation is an important and useful technique but perhaps not with certain qi related practices so much. And in England at least it would be common to reduce a name like Damien to Damo ... so this doesn't actually necessarily have anything to do with the Bodhidharma.
