There is not a single person that did not come from a women. This definitly has an effect. I have learned in my own life that you will get stuck until you have made peace with your mother and father. You have also talked about being mother and father to your self I have also found this important.

I hope you are not ignoring the human aspect of religious Icons. This is why it is important to keep practicing the fundamentals. There is also a humbling aspect to this. There are reports of “masters” through out time that have had problems, especially around sex, and “power”. Agian I think it has to do with intent. Making the patterns and…[Read more]

I thought I make my own view clearer on this subject. Most of this stuff is not so physical. WE seem to like to make it that way. Put faces on stuff, give it a location. I have only heard from people I trust, that there is vast life out there, it is just not so physical. So I do not think that the journey to the center of the earth is a…[Read more]

I was looking up what you where talking about. Here are some movies that I found. Is this part of your prospective. I think intelligence has talked about this stuff on this…[Read more]

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your time.

So you like Confucuan’s interpretations of the I ching? I understand outer disipline and structure in the place of knowing ones self. Also relates to the Mafias approach to protection. I was lookin more for your personal relationship with Confucianism, not so much as a history lesson, Or a lesson in general.

“I don’t know all of the precepts of the different flavors of Christian doctrine, but these statements need explaining. I don’t believe they are all in line with Christian doctrine. ”

Thank you for asking. There is a vast number of interpretation especially in the south. In the south not reading your own bible is crazy. Unlike older roman…[Read more]

All I realy wanted clearity on was one fajins view on confucianism, and two what you guys got out of it.

“If you study religous taoism, much more popular than alchemy, you may view it as a “nasty tool” too, but most dont use this view as representative of taoism.”

I am there with you I hear you. I wrote about this topic not to long ago.…[Read more]

What is your definition of karma?

“Good actions yeld good karma, bad actions – bad karma.”

Do you mean natural action, or action aligned with the flow of the life force? Becuase the above statement is old, out dated, and dripping with duality.

Thats what I thought. Um, the compassion aspect. Yes my motherly aspect. I considered Kuan-Yin the Mother Mary of the east.

Did you just say Kuan-yin is a cross dresser. Thats pretty funny. I have heard of others. Just never kuan-yin.

Yes to think of Doaism to be stuck and not changing would be silly. Humanity is change.

The question is what was the goal? Why where some things added and used. Confucianism seems to have deen a nasty tool. As it not being a comprehensive philosophy. Did it need to be? Where there not imortals being produced? They did more walking then…[Read more]

“I would argue if Taoism was so effective why did buddhism become so popular and the predomiant tradition?”

ohh bad argument. You have to look at he goal.

“The realization of one’s true nature I beleive is the same, the path or method may differ.

Even in Tao alchemy there are a wide range of methods, some just go to each of…[Read more]

I can tell this is a touchie subject for you. Being polite and being respectfully is part of the deep rememberance of who you always speak to. Even better is the deep acceptance that comes with time. I still like your main point. But again it does not honner the specific relationship.
He would say he is much worse then a schmuk, but at the…[Read more]

“tao was twisted too. On this list people to to pick the best of taoism, wish they would do the same for others traditons too.”

Shure. I wrote a little thing on this forum about that very topic. It was just not clear in his statement. By other traditions do you mean Buddhism?

As far as it being the same, I would love to hear more on…[Read more]

You think Confucianism is heading in the same direction as Daoism? Did Zhang write his own stuff?

I appreciate your view in the context of your story. But the story does not honner the relationship my uncle has with his church. Speaking of being respectful or polite. I do not see how calling my uncle a schmuck is polite, or respectful.

I used numbers 4, 5, and 9 in my post to try and help.

“I think it`s more related to the use of the name in magick.”

Getting closer. Would you mabie insolate, and name diferent parts of your self to better explain all that you are. In reality there would be no separation just one fluid you. The name is not that important just the…[Read more]

Waco was a little diferent. There was no poison in the punch, but there was a killing in the name of there protection.. But I still got your point.

“This is not an awakeness to the wonder of being human”
Is this comment directed at me? If so I thought I clearly stated that there is an important difernce between revolation and years of…[Read more]
