sean Posted October 5, 2005 How's the book? Had a chance to read it some? Learn anything interesting? 7626[/snapback] Haven't even cracked it yet unfortunately. Really looking forward to it, I just want to get a few more books off my plate because I get pulled in too many directions. I will let you know though, definitely.

Tenguzake Posted October 5, 2005 Wow. Sounds good.There's a similar movie that came out in the 80's called The Big Blue, that is about that - and is excellent. 7625[/snapback]   This was great. I rented it when I lived in Japan so I watched it in French and had to translate back to English from the Japanese subtitles. I'm sure I missed some of the subtleties in the dialogue...  Be Genki,  Tenguzake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DustWalker Posted October 25, 2005 Almost finished reading "Autobiography of A Yogi" by Paramahamsa Yogananda. Great lore on Babaji, Kriya Yoga and other things. Almost as good as "Opening the Dragon Gate" but not quite up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

affenbrot Posted October 25, 2005 No spiritual topic but anyway: I'm just reading Jung Chang: Wild Swans a history of the writer's family through three generations in china - very moving, and a lot of things about china i did not know the least!  Also currently lying beside my bed:  Stanley Keleman: Emotional anatomy. The structure of experience - classical bioenergy, amazing drawings of the human body (e.g. as a hydraulic system), quite spooky.  Arthur E. Powell: The Mental Body  and again picking up a book I don't understand at all, but every now and then am reading anyway: Stephen Wolinsky: Walden III - In search of a Utopian Nirvana The ultimate deconstruction of everything (He calls it "post-deconstruction", drawing upon buddhism, advaitavedanta, linguitics, neuroscience, philosophy and quantum physics.) My favourite: his chapter on the bourgoise seeker. Very radical.   affenbrot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
