Did you read the article from the link I posted?

There’s a big section about the fraud perpetrated by Monsanto about this item. They originally sold it by saying it was as harmless as table salt and they fabricated their scientific info to back it up and got caught. Several people got stiffly fined and sent to jail. I do…[Read more]

I read the Wikipedia info (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundup#Health_Concerns) and it leaves me questioning. People say the ingredients break down shortly after use and are not harmful but certain evidence leads me to believe otherwise.

Thanks, Sophia the…[Read more]

Welcome to this forum! I’ve been absent recently due to time pressures, but am really pleased to have another enlightened female voice here (unless you are a man posing as Sophis/Wisdom….but it doesn’t feel like it).I completely agree with Shapiro’s viewpoint, and may actually publish a different version of the…[Read more]

This channeling is dated 2/12/90:

“Lemurians did not need to build houses for their comfort. They could create comfort, they could allow comfort. They did not need externalized technology. The whole idea behind Atlantis was that human beings could learn to control their…[Read more]

I’ve always thought the “substance” people got from going to gyms was from chasing OTHER people’s tails.

You will spontaneously resolve it through practice.

When I first started doing Daoist practices and learned that the left is considered the yang side (and acupuncurists call it “your father’s side) I was taken aback and confused. The only intellectual explanation I had for this was that…[Read more]

Jsrit- This is what I am responding to that you have put forth:

“I still think a Taoist University for Peace is a grat idea. There is so much important research we could do and are doing?

I hear agendas all over the place and they are a turn-off!

I hear the calculating masculine mind trying to determine the best way to change the world and I know true change will not come from that approach. (That’s not Daoist, anyway!)

What *I* mean by that is not being in touch with what we feel, physically, emotionally, psychically or spiritually. The place that we feel from is our body. We want to bring it all down here. That is what is meant by “embodiment.”

What I like to do now, and what I’ve found to be the perfect balancing agent for me after many years of inner and outer practice, is to close every practice I do by rubbing my palms together gently several times and then placing them over the center of my chest, sometimes smiling and sometimes just maitaining a softness about…[Read more]
