  1. Announcement: NEW FORUM!

    Are you competing with this forum? I do not understand the difference? Is there one, is there not supposed to be one.
  2. Drag Me to Hell

    Was it really that good? It looks like other Horror movies, or am I wrong?
  3. I'm starting to question myself

    I would totally agree! That is a great point. Tao is great, but it is the basics, that gives you room to grow and experiment. If you need religion, it will always be here. It is not going anywhere.
  4. The Tao of Anime

    Wow, that looks real, real good! I will definitely check it out.
  5. The Secret, is it BS? (Law Of Attraction)

    Thank you for chiming in. That was pretty! Yes, I meant The Secret movie! To much propaganda, that is for sure. Most of these films coming out now, is purely for profit!
  6. China blocking media yet again

    I cannot stand this. What can we do?
  7. old bum, new bum

    Why Welcome!
  8. Buddhism and taoism?

    That is quite a good way of putting it. I suppose there is much less rules in Taoism? I like the freedom. I would think Taoism, is more like a living organism, it keeps expanding and anything could be added to it. Do you guys feel the same way?
  9. The Secret, is it BS? (Law Of Attraction)

    I mean the stuff they are pushing down into our throats, is it mostly propaganda, or is it more than that? Also do you think that the person made this documentary, is stealing the ancient teachings?
  10. Most of these, Self-Help/Spiritual people who ask for money are con-man's. That is my opinion and I'm sticking to it. I suppose donations are a bit different.
  11. Life Begins At 40

    Happy Birthday! I think this right here outlines my exact thoughts on why life does start at 40 and maybe even 50. Quote: This, I think, has all stemmed from lots of walking, cultivation in meditation, nei gong, zhan zhuang and my study of Buddhist teachings.
  12. What Do Monks Eat Everyday?

    Hell yea it is! Water is beautiful. With ice it's even better!
  13. What are good movies to watch in (Zen, Buddhism or Tao)?

    Well, it could be doc and regular movies too. I have seen a few documentaries. I want movies like Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. One of the best movies I have seen in Buddhism/Tao/Zen. I just saw The Zen Mind, one of the best documentaries I have seen. I would love to see things like the two I have provided. Thank you so much for taking your time to share and recommend. Thank you all for spending your time on my thread. Hope you all take care. Thanks again. http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=sprin...amp;x=0&y=0 [/url]
  14. What are good movies to watch in (Zen, Buddhism or Tao)?

    Agreed! Any good movies on Zen and Tao?
  15. Meditators eat some animals.

    I would double it, that everything is in fact a spirit.

  17. Favourite Book Recommenations

  18. What are good movies to watch in (Zen, Buddhism or Tao)?

    Ahh, long list! Thank you. I will definitely check it out. Thank you!
  19. 50,000 hours

    Thank you for sharing. I read a book: Outliers by Malcom Gladwell and it taked about the 10,000 hour theory. Basically, if you do anything for 10,000 hours which equals to about 10 years, you are supposedly a professional in that field. I wonder how true it is. Any thoughts on this?
  20. What Do Monks Eat Everyday?

    Thank you so much. A lot of information to sift through. Will start today. Thank you all once again.
  21. What is a good breakfast for a TaoBum?

    Do you eat that everyday? or do you switch from food to food? Or how does that work out for you? Thank you so much! Those are great rules. I have definitely been trying all kinds of foods. So far I think semi-vegetarian diet, has worked out well for me.
  22. What are good movies to watch in (Zen, Buddhism or Tao)?

    I heard The Golden Compass was good, I am going to check it out. Thanks for reminding me. Ehh, for some reason I cannot get into Star Wars! Thanks, will try it or something. haha.
  23. What Do Monks Eat Everyday?

    I want to see what they eat, because they are healthy and able to meditate a lot. Also they seem light on their feet. I just want to know, because I am also curious. Thanks all who commented.

  25. What are good movies to watch in (Zen, Buddhism or Tao)?
