Nungali Posted Thursday at 10:13 PM Be shocked  then - if you can bear it -  and answer the question ;  What 'certain occult practices' parallel 'sucking evil into the palm of their hands '  ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lairg Posted Thursday at 10:55 PM There are secondary chakras (vortices) in the palms of the hands.  These are operated by nature spirits (lesser devas).  Nature spirits embedded in the human light-body can be captured/replaced by dark entities    Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sanity Check Posted Friday at 01:41 PM Well, even in christianity there was a practice where they would put hands on a sick person to heal them.  There are at least a few variations on the concept of healing people with hands.  The anime version of sucking evil (or illness) into a person's hands is something like a hollywood exaggeration of it.

Nungali Posted Friday at 10:26 PM That's due to energy coming out of hands .  if you try to learn about life from cartoons .... especially when an adult , well ...........  yeah .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a monk in Korea called So Sahn, whose claim to fame is that he organized large armies of monastics to repel the Hideyoshi invasions of Korea in the late 1500's. And there are many other examples of fighting monks.  However, I could see this particular corruption of Kuan Yin as being borderline offensive. Kind of like naming a night club "Buddha Bar".  Anyway, there are lots bigger things in the world to worry about, this just struck a chord with me.  _/|\_  2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It became known internationally for issuing the Buddha Bar compilation albums, which are popular compilations of lounge, chill-out music and world music, also under the Buddha Bar brand,[1] released by George V Records. Buddha Bar "has made a name for itself with its Zen lounge music CDs and remains a hit – especially with tourists".[3] Locations have since been opened in a number of other countries, although not without controversy arising from the theme.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha_Bar  ...  Speaking of buddha & cartoons.  There is a netflix series entitled Record of Ragnarok with buddha portrayed in it.  https://www.netflix.com/title/81281579   Buddha in cartoons ^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etc, etc.  Its not the same as governor - functional channel imbalance.  Many taoists prefer forms of intuition over developing the rational mind.  Consider me the anomaly of a person who prefers developing the rational mind over intuition.

Sanity Check Posted 2 hours ago I would like to say I gave up on people. Â After seeing how little use they had for science or facts during COVID in 2020. Â But the more honest assessment is, people gave up on themselves. Â There's no need to try to say anything smart or insightful. Â People have no use for such things.
