my personal plan is to kick back and enjoy the show while working on myself. If someone wants my help they can ask for it. If i have advice worth giving, my success can speak for itself to draw in students. Until then i just don't know enough to truly help people. Though my in person presence and forum/online presence are vastly different. i feel like people come on forums to find different opinions and info on stuff

i think that the people that cause problems for virtuous people are a necessary thing that keeps you on the path of virtue. Even if everyone lived virtuously according to whatever standard that implies, we would still find reasons to hate eachother. Drop the hatred and fear and there is no reason to separate people into groups of virtuous and not virtuous. If you need to have a guideline to follow, you can follow "does this really accomplish anything? or am i doing this because i feel i have to?" One persons right is another persons wrong. One persons wrong is another persons right. Morality is a person to person thing, so do what you feel is necessary or what causes change in the world that is desirable to you. If you feel that living your life for the benefit of others is necessary, do that. If you feel like giving up your life for the benefit of others hurts you, then don't do it.

The morality crusaders are also necessary, as without them we all might fall into "chaos" But then again aren't we always in chaos?

It takes all kinds

Although it may not be possible, I'm almost going for CM Punk at this point-

that dude looks seriously strung out on meth. didn't watch the video, just going on the thumbnail

there's a yoga studio in my town that i read reviews for where someone posted "I love this studio, because there's a coffee house right next door and i can grab a coffee on the way out" Said yoga studio also offers a coupon for free pizza if you take ten classes there i believe

nothing wrong with any of this, i just think the idea of "oh i did something good for myself, now i'll reward myself by undoing the benefits" is a little silly to me

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine#Health_effects

among the most relevant to this thread of those effects, vasoconstriction. if you are doing any kind of energy work or stretching caffeine is going to hinder you

this thread needs moar ponies

Keep away from caffeines too.

 

Decaff's your friend, all else is wakeful.

i am caffeine sensitive and decaf definitely gives me a caffeine buzz too. i would just stick to water, especially with kundalini issues

do some belly breathing. not worrying is probably the best, most self-regulating thing you can do right now

sweet, it looks like we will be able to group all the arguments about conspiracies, politics and vegetarianism into this thread. Lets just leave it all in here, lock it an throw away the key because noone will ever change anyone elses opinion on any of these things. EVER

mlk did 9/11 and the sandy hook shootings.

also, shillings. just felt like typing that

i see it as a thousand petal lotus. mostly when i feel euphoric or am purposely raising energy. doesnt seem to mess with my vision

if snow jesus really existed i would have had at least one white christmas growing up

are you talking mixtures vs. compounds? i think that putting one in the other is just a mixture

Does most everyone here only read spiritual books? How about great novels or even some Shakespeare?

hey my last post is a novel with nothing to do with spirituality i just described it in spiritually relevant context

Naked Lunch

Great read for anyone who wants to practice maintaining equanimity in the face of...horrifyingness lol

i would say caution for the faint of heart, but i think the reason it was written was to shock such people so maybe they should take the gamble and give it a read
