This society is run by certain rules, and as much as you can point around at someone’s “judgment about what is right and what is wrong” if I come to your house and cook someone very close to you, even a pet, that hidden set of rules will come to play in your life really fast. I mean how do you personally separate who is worth living or be…[Read more]

Ok, you just said Aloha in one of your ending and I know you like Hawai’i. Yeah Santa Fe New Mexico is my birth place so it is in my heart as well.
-Yes, I remember that now. You should see this place after all the rains this summer. We went from having the worst drought in a hundred years to having the wettest summer in a hundred years!-

Hey A. I didn’t write that. I just ripped it off from the link I included.
-Yi Tao, if that is true then you plagarized it to present your point of view. Always use quotation marks unless you want others to think the words are your own. And since you copied them as if they were your own, my point stands.-

Hello Yi Tao,
I wish to draw your attention to a discrepency in what you write that I hope will lead you to see this situation more clearly. I do not want to debate this. Just want to clarify.
You say…
“In case you’re not aware, brainwashers and dictators and master manipulators of all sorts have long known and exploited the…[Read more]

thank you, alexander.
-You bet-
your perspective seems much more holistic than the one you are responding to — at least from the standpoint of a living human being. and that is exactly what seems so strange to me about this “false self” language, that it seems based upon a kind of erroneous projection outside of the living, human…[Read more]

Alexander Alexis replied to the topic Dalai Lama: Mother's Touch Root of all Human Value (& Religion) in the forum Philosophy 18 years, 2 months ago
Gentlemen, the real issue here is in the search for what is right and what is wrong instead of the search for what is most appropriate and useful. Spirit doesn’t judge. We make up our rewards and punishments. Beliefs are all-powerful. As Ram Dass said several decades ago: “It’s not about eating meat or not eating meat. It’s about who’s doing it…[Read more]

I guess you are addressing me, right, since I have been gone?
I am in Santa Fe, NM. But I have a strong hold on Hawai’i in my heart. (Or vice-versa)I actually hadn’t been planning to return this soon to the forum but was so taken aback by Fajin’s pretentious comments to Nnonnth that I felt grabbed by the universe to make a statement to…[Read more]

Dog, since your words seem to be that of an older, wiser person, I am curious, if it is not too revealing, how old you are. If you’d rather it remain a mystery, that’s OK too. Thanks, A.

Max, I think that it is wonderful that you were able to attune and receive information about eating that affected you so beneficially. But what you get and what another gets isn’t going to necessarily jive and I think you understand why.
I am convinced at this point that we are all operating very differently from each other, having to go…[Read more]

Hello Christopher,
I chose to answer your post in such detail primarily because of the sincerity of soul-searching that you display in your writing. It IS, as you suggest, direct experience of the truth through personal investigation that brings about revelation and change in us, not following others, no matter how important in history they…[Read more]

“why does the root produce the blossom? …in other words, aren’t emotions and feelings verily the actualization of the original spirit in its infinite flux of the inseparability of self-experience and self-dissolution?”
Yes. In its need to grow spirit needs a way to have experience. This is what feelings are for. They tell us/spirit what is…[Read more]

“What is the end goal of alchemical methods? Tell me.”
I’ll tell you.
The end goal is to get to the point where you won’t have the desire/need to write arrogant statements like this to your siblings:“When we realize our true nature, we do what is needed… When you get there, you’ll see.”
Did you NEED to go to China?

When you have sex with another person you are aligning core channels with them. If your awareness and compatibility are good…Yay! But when you come together (no pun intended) with unconscious issues to resolve, you open yourself to the other’s energy field and karma at the deepest level possible…Yikes!
I’ve been in both situations. I…[Read more]

Alexander Alexis replied to the topic saying no in the forum Practice 18 years, 3 months ago
Good concept and statement, Mat.
“No” with resistance is a stressful state, contracting the body-mind and turning off chi flow (and common sense). Since you can’t say Yes to everything, when saying No one can be focussing on what one wants instead so that the answer becomes a redirection of thinking and energies toward what is desired.…[Read more]

Freeform, this is Extremely well said. Thank you for being able to put it into words.
Yi Tao, what Freeform is pointing out is valid and helpful. I hope you will take it in. (His comment on your consciousness as well!) Your words really say that you want us to continue to accept the old paradigm based on fear, but that is going…[Read more]

“I do agree with you on some level. The initial impulse of ‘protecting’ yourself creates the space for something to protect *against*!”
That’s the center of the thing. What we believe on the primal level is what we act out. So we choose to develop our spiritual awareness and put something in place of the fear WHICH WAS A LEARNED RESPONSE STATE…[Read more]
