So, okay, let me get this right … you and Steve are talking negatively about this particular religion that you plucked “out of a hat” called “Islam” and … it has nothing to do with the media ?
Is that what you are saying ?
… that is what you are trying to say, right ?
Because, and you might find this hard to believe, but your views are
EXACTLY WHAT THE TV IS SAYING ALL DAY EVERY DAY.
WHEN I READ YOUR POST I HAVE TO CHECK IF THE TV IS ON !!!
You wonder why I don’t respond to your posts, well it’s because you aren’t in your posts.
You read Chomsky but did not understand what it means about you, about all of us.
All human beings are clones of the social matrix, and repeat the views by default. This is experimentally demonstrated by Milgram, go look up the experiment and try to understand.
It is only when you excuse my French wake-the-f-up that you have a view. That you exist as an individual.
Feel like I am barking up a tree on this forum sometimes. And it reminds me of a funny thing that happened to me at my last job at a little IT shop on the South Coast of England.
I would get in about an hour before anyone else as is my habit, and when the guys turned up it was always :
“Hey MAAATTE, Last Night was Amaaaazing, We got soooooo drunk ….
Yaaaaah
Arghhhhhhh
Fell on the Floor shitfaced, got home at 5am with a broken nose
Maaattteee
”And lots of grunting that can’t quite replicate with the keyboard.
Well anyway I used to keep myself to myself whilst this tribal ritual was being performed in the ancient way by the “men” arriving in the office, and it always felt a little uncomfortable.
But then one morning, I thought f-it and got up started stretching back and scratching my nuts and said something like :
“Argghhhhhhhhh , Arrrr, Arrrrr, Arggggh, Maaaaattteeeeeee,
Arrghhhhhhh ”To which they responded
“Argggggh, mmmmmm , Grrrrrrrrr, Arggggggghhhh”
And I was instantly accepted !!!!!
Oh boy.
You know, several months ago eventually most of the forum–including Michael Winn–called you out on your excessive narcissism and God-complex, and you were finally humiliated enough to leave the forum.
In your time away, I would have thought you would have used the opportunity to grow a bit. Such a disappointment to see you return with the same narcissism and same God-complex. When several different people are observing the same thing, you should start to realize that the common denominator is YOU.
It is especially sad when this is the HEALING TAO forum, and your experience level in the Healing Tao practices is quite minimal.
S
Warriors take strategic inventories. They list everything they do. Then they decide which of those things can be changed in order to allow themselves a respite, in terms of expending their energy.
The strategic inventory covers only behavioral patterns that are not essential to our survival and well-being.
In the strategic inventories of warriors, self-importance figures as the activity that consumes the greatest amount of energy, hence, their effort to eradicate it.
One of the first concerns of warriors is to free that energy in order to face the unknown with it. The action of rechanneling that energy is impeccability.
he most effective strategy for rechanneling that energy consists of six elements that interplay with one another. Five of them are called the attributes of warriorship: control, discipline, forbearance, timing, and will . They pertain to the world of the warrior who is fighting to lose self-importance. The sixth element, which is perhaps the most important of all, pertains to the outside world and is called the petty tyrant.
-CARLOS CASTANEDA, The Fire From WithinThe art of stalking is learning all the quirks of your disguise. There are four steps to learning it: ruthlessness, cunning, patience, and sweetness. Ruthlessness should not be harshness, cunning should not be cruelty, patience should not be negligence, and sweetness should not be foolishness. These four steps have to be practiced and perfected until they are so smooth they are unnoticeable.
-CARLOS CASTANEDA, The Power of SilenceA reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action. In higher animals, most sensory neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord. This characteristic allows reflex actions to occur relatively quickly by activating spinal motor neurons without the delay of routing signals through the brain, although the brain will receive sensory input while the reflex is carried out. Analysis of the signal takes place after action has been taken.

…I would have thought you would have used the opportunity to grow a bit…
I would suggest intensive Castanedan recapitulation.
HOWDY
Ps. There has recently appeared few new pics from Castaneda and below is one of them.
American forces which represent most of the American people on this forum have destroyed the men women and children in Libya, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon.
Million of people murdered. Whole countries destroyed.
Where there was life now only death.
Architecture, historical sites, raised to the ground by yeehaws in their A10s.
These people lived in the 2nd world, they were poor.
And you arrive with your “fears that your freedoms are going to be stolen” and murder them with your advanced weoponry.
Have some shame.
Have you no shame ?
And now after the entire region has been raised to dust, and the whole population is in exodus desperately fleeing to foreign lands, you want to talk about a book?
Have you no shame ?
Perhaps America does not see what everybody outside sees.
My post was indicating the beaut of the people of Islam, of their culture.
And you attack it, justifying the murder of millions. Excusing it because you dug up a book.
Really ?
Steve, is that what you are selling and you call it Healing Tao ?
Perhaps you missed the point.
One of the more controversial teachings of Young was the AdamGod doctrine. According to Young, he was taught by Smith that Adam is “our Father and our God, and the only God with whom we have to do”.
-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigham_Young#Controversial_teachingsMormonism and Islam have been compared to one another ever since the earliest origins of the former in the nineteenth century, often by detractors of one religion or the otheror both. For instance, Joseph Smith, the founding prophet of Mormonism, was referred to as “the modern Mahomet” by the New York Herald, shortly after his murder in June 1844. This epithet repeated a comparison that had been made from Smith’s earliest career, one that was not intended at the time to be complimentary. Comparison of the Mormon and Muslim prophets still occurs today, sometimes for derogatory or polemical reasons but also for more scholarly and neutral purposes. While Mormonism and Islam certainly have many similarities, there are also significant, fundamental differences between the two religions. MormonMuslim relations have historically been cordial; recent years have seen increasing dialogue between adherents of the two faiths, and cooperation in charitable endeavors, especially in the Middle and Far East.
-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_and_MormonismAre you talking about the countries where they throw off homosexualls from buildings ore punish them with a “whipping session”?
Where women are stoned to death if they got raped?
Where young women get mutilated in the genitals so that they can never have an orgasm?
Where around 90% of the people support sharia law?
Where part of the people do not listen to music and are not allowed to make music?
Where the sufis (this islam mystics) are not welcomed?
Where women are not allowed to leave the house without their husband?
Where tenthousends of people go on the street in violent riots after someone drawed a cartoon about their religious figure?
……..etc.In my opinion…
Much better prophet for the masses, with strict commands and restricted life style, would be Joseph Smith, Jr.
Also better revealed scripture would the Book of Mormon etc.

Do you think God only belongs to you?
He doesn’t
God is an immortal spirit who belongs to everybody.
-THE MEADS OF ASPHODEL, Another God In Another Place…fact is that Middle Eastern culture is absolutely divine and completely heart centered…
Maybe this is also a serious problem.
I’m not myself a Latter Day Saint, but from any modern point Mormon Church is much healthier.
But all these old religions are inferior, of course, when compared with the evolving rational culture.

I appreciate the tip about recapitulation, I will check it out and try it.
So … my original post was about showing some love for those of Islam and their beautiful culture.
Is that not a good thing ?
How am I supposed to react when those on the forum all jump in justifying this caricature of muslim people and all the terrible things that happen to them in recent years.
Should I ignore that ?
Would that make me more or less projecting ?
Would I need to recapitulate then or not ?
Doesn’t love come first ?
Isn’t that the most reliable thing ?
Stay out of the head…

-RENE DESCARTESIt’s not studying, mastering and using mathematics & physics or any other thing, but recapitulation which is the immediate door to self-knowledge.
…all jump in justifying this caricature of muslim people and all the terrible things that happen to them in recent years…
Islam, with other collective bhakti yoga religions, have this danger of blind extremism or sentimentalism in some form.
In my opinion.
Recapitulation is only in the beginning a practice.
It becomes more and more a faculty when rightly practiced.

The key element in recapitulating is breathing. Recollecting is easy if one can reduce the area of stimulation around the body. Theoretically, stalkers have to remember every feeling that they have had in their lives, and this process begins with a breath. Write down a list of the events to be relived. The procedure starts with an initial breath. Stalkers begin with their chin on the right shoulder and slowly inhale as they move their head over a hundred and eighty degree arc. The breath terminates on the left shoulder. Once the inhalation ends, the head goes back to a relaxed position. They exhale looking straight ahead.The stalker then takes the event at the top of the list and remains with it until all the feelings expended in it have been recounted. As stalkers remember the feelings they invested in whatever it is that they are remembering, they inhale slowly, moving their heads from the right shoulder to the left. The function of this breathing is to restore energy. The luminous body is constantly creating cobweblike filaments, which are projected out of the luminous mass, propelled by emotions of any sort. Therefore, every situation of interaction, or every situation where feelings are involved, is potentially draining to the luminous body. By breathing from right to left while remembering a feeling, stalkers , through the magic of breathing, pick up the filaments they left behind. The next immediate breath is from left to right and it is an exhalation. With it stalkers eject filaments left in them by other luminous bodies involved in the event being recollected. These are the mandatory preliminaries of stalking. Unless stalkers have gone through the preliminaries in order to retrieve the filaments they have left in the world, and particularly in order to reject those that others have left in them, there is no possibility of handling controlled folly, because those foreign filaments are the basis of one’s limitless capacity for self-importance.

This head movement is important because it’s necessary, during the early stages, to cut certain high-powered influence that takes place near the forehead.
