Chondrodite is a nesosilicate mineral with formula (Mg,Fe)5(SiO4)2(F,OH,O)2. Although it is a fairly rare mineral, it is the most frequently encountered member of the humite group of minerals. It is formed in hydrothermal deposits from locally metamorphosed dolomite. It is also found associated with skarn and serpentinite. It was discovered in 1817 on Mt. Somma, part of the Vesuvius complex in Italy, and named from the Greek for "granule", which is a common habit for this mineral.

interesting they appear hexagonal

depends on the source and how metals are refined in the soil over time. some soil organisms -I think HOS? making bio magnetite in some kinds of earth. They follow the lay lines and dig out the REE's

It seems very good fortune being off the grid REE's

yeah the shape reminded me makes sense I got a bulk 25lbs bag -too much. Been mixing with Montmorillonite and Zeolite and placing hydroponic butter lettuce (very alkaline)for a few days in water with the mix. Lettuce core being used in western alch for a blue source. ""various sea sponges need silicon in order to have structure. It is much more important to the metabolism of plants, particularly many grasses, and silicic acid (a type of silica) forms the basis of the striking array of protective shells of the microscopic diatoms. Quartz crystal cluster from Tibet. The naturally-occurring mineral is a network solid with the formula SiO2.

There's always blue in green I like blue green algae. I was buying from these, but expensive The stuff luminesces at night a blue color. This link describes how the "missing" link in the Krebs cycle (or TCA cycle--tricarboxylic acid) of blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) has been discovered. Diatom Silica

interesting they chose red and blue to depict

" And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all of them who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, and for the "spirited" Taoist Lao Tzu (official head of this site and all Taoists -on Goverment: GOVERNMENT NOT exalting worth keeps the people from rivalry. Not prizing what is hard to procure keeps the people from theft. Not to show them what they may covet is the way to keep their minds from disorder. Therefore the Sage, when he governs, empties their minds and fills their bellies, weakens their inclinations and strengthens their bones. His constant object is to keep the people without knowledge and without desire, or to prevent those who have knowledge from daring to act. He practises inaction, and nothing remains ungoverned. He who respects the State as his own person is fit to govern it. He who loves the State as his own body is fit to be entrusted with it. In the highest antiquity, the people did not know that they had rulers. In the next age they loved and praised them. In the next, they feared them. In the next, they despised them. How cautious is the Sage, how sparing of his words! When his task is accomplished and affairs are prosperous, the people all say: "We have come to be as we are, naturally and of ourselves." If any one desires to take the Empire in hand and govern it, I see that he will not succeed. The Empire is a divine utensil which may not be p. 38 roughly handled. He who meddles, mars. He who holds it by force, loses it. Fishes must not be taken from the water: the methods of government must not be exhibited to the people. Use uprightness in ruling a State; employ stratagems in waging war; practise non-interference in order to win the Empire. Now this is how I know what I lay down:-- As restrictions and prohibitions are multiplied in the Empire, the people grow poorer and poorer. When the people are subjected to overmuch government, the land is thrown into confusion. When the people are skilled in many cunning arts, strange are the objects of luxury that appear. The greater the number of laws and enactments, the more thieves and robbers there will be. Therefore the Sage says: "So long as I do nothing, the people will work out their own reformation. So long as I love calm, the people will right themselves. If only I keep from meddling, the people will grow rich. If only I am free from desire, the people will come naturally back to simplicity." If the government is sluggish and tolerant, the people will be honest and free from guile. If the government is prying and meddling, there will be constant infraction of the law. Is the government corrupt? Then uprightness becomes rare, and goodness becomes strange. Verily, mankind have been under delusion for many a day! Govern a great nation as you would cook a small fish. * p. 39 If the Empire is governed according to Tao, disembodied spirits will not manifest supernatural powers. It is not that they lack supernatural power, but they will not use it to hurt mankind. Again, it is not that they are unable to hurt mankind, but they see that the Sage also does not hurt mankind. If then neither Sage nor spirits work harm, their virtue converges to one beneficent end. In ancient times those who knew how to practise Tao did not use it to enlighten the people, but rather to keep them ignorant. The difficulty of governing the people arises from their having too much knowledge. If the people do not fear the majesty of government, a reign of terror will ensue. Do not confine them within too narrow bounds; do not make their lives too weary. For if you do not weary them of life, then they will not grow weary of you. If the people do not fear death, what good is there in using death as a deterrent? But if the people are brought up in fear of death, and we can take and execute any man who has committed a monstrous crime, who will dare to follow his example? Now, there is always one who presides over the infliction of death. He who would take the place of the magistrate and himself inflict death, is like one who should try to do the work of a master-carpenter. And of those who try the work of a master-carpenter there are few who do not cut their own hands. The people starve because those in authority p. 40 over them devour too many taxes; that is why they starve. The people are difficult to govern because those placed over them are meddlesome; that is why they are difficult to govern. The people despise death because of their excessive labour in seeking the means of life; that is why they despise death. A Sage has said: "He who can take upon himself the nation's shame is fit to be lord of the land. He who can take upon himself the nation's calamities is fit to be ruler over the Empire." Were I ruler of a little State with a small population, and only ten or a hundred men available as soldiers, I would not use them. I would have the people look on death as a grievous thing, and they should not travel to distant countries. Though they might possess boats and carriages, they should have no occasion to ride in them. Though they might own weapons and armour, they should have no need to use them. I would make the people return to the use of knotted cords. * They should find their plain food sweet, their rough garments fine. They should be content with their homes, and happy in their simple ways. If a neighbouring State was within sight of mine--nay, if we were close enough to hear the crowing of each other's cocks and the barking of each other's dogs--the two peoples should grow old and die without there ever having been any mutual intercourse. Any thoughts?

"true water within the vapor" is a fair way to describe where it hides -at least one of the places.. Vapor from fire and water.. so, vapor is super small spheres of water.. what is the absolute smallest size water vapor particle? the "true water" comes from this. Water is H and O ..true water in the vapor that comes from untrue water -H2O ..so taking away the O leaves no water and taking away one H leaves? The mind draws a hard line between matter and energy. It's the wave vers. particle, polarity-conflict Chi has a body -an actual form. It's transitional and exists occasionally both as wave and particle.This is why it gets described in many substances in the earth and body: saliva, semen, urine, dung/earth (gold) thunder etc. it blinks in and out of our polarized dimension simply because we believe it. Our brains make it when we're full of joy, haha. =.- Taoists called it gold

at summer in the high dessert at night pine tree release specific odors like chocolate, strawberry, mint and vanilla. I think trees and people communicate electrochemically through chakras with essence or amrit, ambrose, soma etc. So this is through the breath and words. Talking with trees always feels very good.

I have a question, I know when I convert sexual energy the body, specifically the muscles become instantly pliable and almost as instantly un-pliable If I stop -regarding uncomfortable lotus or anything. I was thinking about hormone release from stretching and exercise and my Q. -are the hormones what causes the pliability? it's such an instantaneous occurrence that seems impossible could happen so quick The same effect happens in ecstatic states, but feels more like a top down and not exactly chemical/physical process..

overpost

Yep, that was it. Very interesting Forum actually -lot of very intelligent presences. My G. said that back then the Japanese Soldiers tended to have a lot of Gold in their dental work, so finding a cave full of bodies was a boon to some less than squeamish American soldiers..

Healing is 90% of progress towards WU Wei.

thanks, I will I thought I read somewhere on this forum about Japan burying their own people alive to cover up military project but maybe it was on another site via link. The bodies my G. found were all without wounds like they had died just sitting there. I was like no-way! couldn't be the same story..?

Wu Wei is a still heart. ..again Gurdjeif, explained that peace is an absolute absence of emotion- a no-thing. If I recall He talked about "dead matter" as substance that has zero spin -being equivalent of peace or an awakened heart center. I think he referenced a total inability to 'laugh' as a sign of True Peace/Wu Wei. I read account from a Mormon historian who had access to some old scrolls in Israel that described the stone of the ten commandments as opalescent, translucent blue colored cube about two feet square that had ever changing inscriptions inside it and that it levitated, supposedly the source of the Arks levitation actions. I think G. also covered dead matter as occasionally falling to the earth. I'd say the same material is in thunder and the northern lights and becomes the magnetic core -black hole of the heart that is true emptiness -Wu Wei Dead Matter having no spin would tend to end polarity of gravitational matter -anything could happen. Maybe spiritual progress is about making the ultimate vacuum..?

from my own insight it looks like the new spiritual age will evolve in several directions at once with different types of genius centered mostly either in the mind -spiritual technology, heart -avatars, or body -return to agricultural (earth oneness) and a mix of all three in some areas.

My grandfather was stationed in Burma and had many stories about the massacres. I remember him saying that one day a hole opened in the runway after a monsoon that was filled with hundreds of Japanese like they had been buried alive.. He thought British must have been the ones who killed them, then the US paved over the site with it's own runway after taking it from the Japanese.. He also got in with the local shaman and then initiated into their clan in a darkness retreat. He always said the native people were very pure and spirited..

Thank you, would you expand on 'spiral unity' My feeling about awakening en-mass is the earth actually drives our progress with the sun and moon and at this time the earth is becoming self conscious. Humanity has an option to align through conscience with the mother, but maybe many will not.. at the same time a small group that makes that choice has a very wide sphere of influence and may attract the masses. I wonder how many "enlightened souls" are actually needed for the earths progression?

Wiki Conscience is an aptitude, faculty, intuition or judgment of the intellect that distinguishes right from wrong. Moral judgment may derive from values or norms (principles and rules). In psychological terms conscience is often described as leading to feelings of remorse when a human commits actions that go against his/her moral values and to feelings of rectitude or integrity when actions conform to such norms.[1] The extent to which conscience informs moral judgment before an action and whether such moral judgments are or should be based in reason has occasioned debate through much of the history of Western philosophy. I think in Ouspensky's 'In Search of The Miraculous, Gurdjeif is quoted on how conscience works as a leading voice on the path of spiritual awakening, also in Beelzebub's Tales Gurdjeif covers this topic very well. Basically conscience is a place inside the heart that matches its macrocosmic equivalent the Mother Goddess. Its our link to the ever changing path of spirit inside a giant sea of awareness and choice. Humanities bridge to the divine is every single living beings conscience-choice to abide in unity with each other and the Mother as our guide We are a collective soul -very free and bound to one another for a great purpose

"wide range of spiritual thought" who wrote this? is it specific only to 'masters' and 'teachers' How do you define "spiritual thought" for my own self? How do you define it for 10,000 members? In my thought and experience all is tao and even political argument is a progression through internal experience and increasing awareness.

The part of the movement that is spiritual is conscience. Conscience is the voice of the soul that connects to universal law, Ma'at, Tao, God, The Earth, The Sun and all other living beings. Conscience is what awakens in any search for truth and is the apparatus that divines truth from lie. All the oppression is making more and more obvious what is most important and everyone wants that right now.

I'm sure Lao Tzu enjoyed tea, but I don't think they used bags back then.

are human bodies planned obsolete? maybe rewired to break faster?
