I’m self-employed selling real estate and I generally work part time. SC is a very cheap place to live, thank goodness. I consider working in the world to be a very valuable portion of my education. Without it, I wouldn’t be able to separate where I think I’m at and where I really am at, vibrationally. Maybe when I’m more sensitive to my…[Read more]

imo, it’s a mix, but psychological/belief system/habitual thoughts is definitely the master. My conception of qigong training follows the Buddhist compassion/prajna understanding. Meditation practices temporarily bump up one’s energy level which gives a temporary platform to have superior insight into life which then affords long term energetic…[Read more]

There are man-made, megalithic structures 2,000 ft below sea level off Cuba. Radar-type scanning picked up the linear, mathematical shapes below the ground. Can’t do more than that as it has been covered in sand and silt.

There’s a lot of arguments whether or not certain myths actually happened. Joseph Cambell makes a good point that the…[Read more]

Well, those people wriggle off the philosophical hook by saying that those desires are the good ones or that it’s a mystery.

The idea that desires (which are always selfish) is bad runs pretty deep but that’s the reason we are here–to sharpen the hell out of them!

Yes, I do.

As to my quitting… I’m more chilled out now. I was a pretty serious Buddhist then who needed to save all sentient beings from bad rebirths and I felt that I wasn’t making much headway on that front. It was depressing. Since then, I found a new age feel good philosophy where nobody needs saving–so the heat is off!

I haven’t done any straight up, yiquan style standing for a number of months. My mind seems to wander more. I’m thinking that standing brings in more energy, but that I’ve got that covered through sungazing. I’ll keep experimenting, of course.

Double power indeed–Yoda don’t play.

Long story short, I’ve been shot point blank with a .357 magnum–all five rounds, and I just laughed at the guy. I explained to my assailant what my secret was and I made him promise to order the double power ones as they really are much more effective. We’ve remained friends and he’s since used his…[Read more]
