Hmnn... being aware as a negative thought arises and letting it go, not allowing it to fester and circle.

 

Easy to write,

hard to practice..

Dio.

The most Taoist thing said in this thread.

Remember, I am an Atheist and a Materialist. We are born, we live, then we die. The cycle is complete. 'Marblehead'

Wouldn't a Taoist .lifestyle be whatever lifestyle a Taoist chose to lead?

Dio.

I'm just hoping this is the last 'end' of the world, at lest for while. Now maybe people can start living and go deal with life again.

Next Lent I plan to give up abstinence.

Abstinence of what?

I don't make new years resolutions, per say. I set goals. Lookin at those huge lottery jack pots, I thought what what I do if had a ton money. I don't pay the lottery tho. I however had a good list of goals, debt to pay off and things to buy and what order to do it in.

I'm sorry. There is truth in everything even cut n paste. It is not personal, from the heart, and starts to look like an over hammered nail.

It's ok Christmas isn't Christian anysways. Happy Holidays with your family.

The cowboy goes first

A craze man said, care? We are all talkin about this. But who wants to go first?

Care? Someone told me find the good in everthing. In my short experience in past lives, I've found the hardest part, is to be the Nazi, Judas, or the Roman who nailed good Jews to the crosses. They each did what they believed to be right at the time. In the void we all look back and learn. Until your in their shoes... and everyone, you'll be there one day doing what you believe to be as right. When you have worn those boots, you'll feel for them, but glad it wasn't you...this time around.

Honey, what has the Foot got, is it yours?

Everything happens for a reason. Nothing else matters.

Is this the coast to coast am thread? How has he helped you all personally?

Luv ya Doc. Most times Your the only one makes sense, in all the cut n paste.

No were fine. *shut-up* tee hee. precious.

I think, therefore I am. But I don't want grow up.

I think, therefore, I am. If we are children of God, what are we when we grow up?

Based on ur dish, is jing...sex?

Hmm yummy.

Hay GrandPa P, if there's no enlightenment what's all the fuss about?

If someone were to get there, enlightened, then what would they do then?

Try to be normal? Err, or would they disappear?

I know every day could be my last.

Is not enlightenment death, then we'll know all? So would not the short way be a bullet?

Ok, what the meaning of enlightenment to Taoists?

If the subject is compassion then we might go back and recall how we learned it as a kid.

By rejoicing with the happy and crying with the sad?

So, is emptiness as far as compassion goes, means being unselfish?

The most enlightened being I know then, are my dogs, they have true love.

Oh, can't see the forest for the trees, Back up and see the whole pianting, Etc
