  1. dating people who have close birthdays

    Maybe you gravitate towards people that have similar traits to you. Which may also subconciously imply that you are trying to find a reflection of yourself so you can understand yourself better.

    Alters brain chemistry? of course it does...
  3. Ancient Egyptian symbols

    This is really awesome. I have been getting into symbols and ancient civilization such as the egyptian kemites, i'm still very new to all of this but this thread seems like a relatively good starting point on my journey of research and findings =]

    Fried deer?!? really?
  5. entity issue, advice needed

    I would say, be wary of the entity as in, be mindful of the entity that is reluctantly attaching itself to you. Do not try to force it out of your mind, as this will cause it to grow stronger. Be wary of its presence and allow it to subside, as it will subside eventually. The entity is an illusion, your thoughts do not belong to you. Stop trying so hard to control it.
  6. Some Thoughts

    Porn is highly insidious. I also recommend refraining from masturbating as well as viewing it, as there are so many subliminal embeds contained in the scenes. Its hyper stimulation that is focused on soley the lower three chakras, keeps your ass in the lower nature...
  7. Depression

    Depression is something that should be embraced, not suppressed like psychologists medications that they want to induce you with. Like a poster have said the best recommendation is to spend as much time as you can out in nature whether it be the ocean, forest, or just going out to park would be nice. Get fresh air and just let go of your thoughts. You don't own your thoughts. be aware of whats going on in your thoughts, and let the negative ones subside. Don't fight it or suppress it...just let them be..and then you will realize your ego is nothing but a facade....
  8. Shamanism: Use and Misuse of Power

    Wow thanks for this. It is true, only when we are able to remove those blockages created by fear may we be able to re-connect to the way we truly are..which is love. Spirit=love=knowledge=light. They are all one. Fear=evil....they are merely a facade. I am so thankful for the spirit everyday and the lessons the universe provides me....take your daily struggles as a gift from the creator. And go out into nature frequently, listen to the winds, animals, and trees as it speaks it own language for you too enjoy and to heal.Here the spirit is communicating with you. Ask it questions and you shall know. Reflect on your life daily. What lessons have you been taught by the spirit throughout your life? There are plenty, and do not discount their importance.
  9. It's all in the stars I tells ye

    I only recently have gotten somewhat deeply into astrology. As a result i understand the nature of my overall being, better. Astrology is a great facet for one who seeks to gain further knowledge along their spiritual path.
  10. What is individuality?

    Individuality is basically how you create your reality based off your own subjective experiences. It is knowing what differentiates yourself from other people. So there are different levels of individuality. Low and high. If you have low individuality then you may be the quintessential conformist, if you have high individuality then you are one that is always always always focused on your own path...your spiritual path.
  11. And just because the top brain surgeon makes this statement pertaining to the afterlife it makes headline news ha ha ha ha. Screw the brain surgeon (pun intended).
  12. Who is insane?

    The whole world is insane, essentially.
  13. Human Potential

    Indeed, the structures that have been placed before us were done so to limit our capabilities. Let them go and know that you can be a much greater human being, and the truth will begin presenting itself...

  15. Fasting

    Wow that is quite squeemish to even imagine. From what i've learned our human bodies are infested with parasites and worms, it takes fasting or herbal detox to get rid of them. Until then, i will allow myself to be a host for these gross inhabitors.
  16. Fasting

    http://personalexcellence.co/blog/fasting/ this is a personal journal entry that is free along with being full and extensive.
  17. Fasting

    Right now im doing a one meal a day fast and its working out wonderfully. It is best to read up on fasting before engaging in it, but i encourage all to try it at least once. You will realize the amazing benefits of even a mini-fast such as mine.
  18. Sugar and Not So Sweet Dreams

    I need to overcome my sugar addiction. It is very difficult to say the least, but i know i can get over it eventually. Its all just cravings. Its funny because i think that whenever i have ice cream i get bad dreams. Its probably from the high sugar content as well as maybe the fat both total and saturated that create nightmares.
  19. I feel the same way. i always try to act as genuine and myself as possible, but of course the inner work must be done first in order to have a hard surface to stand on. You may not feel as connected to the general population but hey at least you know your doing something positive for yourself and in the long run your going to be much happier then the others....
  20. Everyone post some favorite quotes!

    Time always tells the truth..
  21. Transhumanism: Many of us are already cyborgs.

    Well i think also we are cyborgs because we are mentally and physically attached to our technology such as computers and cell phones. Its a subliminal transformation.

  24. Zen And Masturbation...The Struggle!

    From my experience as well these are both two true statements. Conserving your sexual energy will give you more focus and insight and in turn you will be able to look inwards more deeper. When you do so many of your core issues will arise quicker into your psyche and so the intent of not emitting your fluids should be because you want too better yourself spiritually, emotionally, physically. And conversely when you do better yourself you'll be able to use your sexual energy to create a stronger and more balanced body, mind, and lifestyle.
