I couldnt have said it better myself. Plus I forgot about speaking of things that way I did. I should have focused on the positive.

But yeah things like thunder magic, varjisattva stuff, some tibetan can... yeah.

Its my understanding Metta is supposed to mitigate that.

Yeah i was getting tired and realized now how i sounded. Yuck.

According to the great philosophers it belongs to the realm of what can only be felt. As the mind constantly plays for control it fights what it does not understand. That is why even Jesus' teachings more based upon emotion are not completely followed because such teachings are beyond the mind.

As a side point string theory is more aptly used when speaking of the concept of nonduality rather than dimensions.

One dimesional and two dimensional models are only abstractions in a topologists mind. Real dimensions are measured and a function of the following things by Nasa: Magnetic fields dissappear or diminish with the absence of matter or existence of matter to varying parts of the universe. Increasing inductive fields leads to shifting into higher dimensions where photons of light travel faster and make faster than light travel possible.

Demosthenes once showed that anything could be disproven with words.

In mathematics we developed ways of dealing with abstract concepts that exist in the universe aside or even in conjunction with concrete numbers.

Really this could change how people see things but greed is stronger! So is unawareness and stubborness.

This is something I understand from my experience. However since other peoples experiences could be different based upon what they believe there is much room for complacentcy on all parts of the spectrum.

Lets venture into the realm of meditation so to speak. Meditation can take many different forms according to Taoist scholar Eva Wong. It should be no suprise that Taoism borrowed from the buddists. In fact I personally know of a priest that had seals of so and so deity proving they were originally buddhist. It may seem like I am getting off track here but my point is that many forms of meditation have things in common or can be grouped together. If you focus on developing will or willpower through seeing how others react to this training you can become insensitive and cold if that is the only spiritual focus. If I were to convert it to more mundane examples I could with scientific reductionism say that by focusing on accomplishing a task without empathy for people around oneself is a symptom of such type of will-only training. If one were to focus only on will in the mundane sense then one could also mirror that perspective when going about daily activities. However it makes for a less empathetic person. I am also aware ofmeditations that can cause people to become unbalanced the same way.
So in conclusion in a reductive sense we could say only focusing on will can lead to the aformentioned behaviour. However most meditations dont focus on it only, thankfully so.

Intent I understand is usually taken to mean different things. One that has developed a lot of anger could either through willful intent or through undeveloped rapidly moving energy unknowingly direct ill intent at another. Other forms of intent are done in meditations or chi'kung. When you swing a golf club your intent is to drive the ball in the hole or on the green. When target practicing the intent is to hit the target. Intent also takes other forms like intent to watch for cars when crossing a busy intersection.

Intention and intent are made of many things, it would be so easy for me to scientifically reduce the subject and say that an emotionally balanced person would have the keenest calmest intent through overcoming obstacles and not letting things bother them. The more things bother us the more they threaten our health and well being. Do you know anyone who rails on everything they dont like?

The alternative would be to discuss emotions and the different effects on physiology. But I grow impatient that I have made this post so long.

Am I right to guess you were talking about weak will being the cause of faulty intent? Or the case where someone loosly intended to do something right but did not due to being unaware of circumstances? Such things tend to glide on the edge of belief. Darn that positive or revrse ad hoc fallacy. :D

I was married to a native american woman for four years. She was more than three fourths sioux so her family hated me. Cultural differences besides that she was manipulitive. My opinion is that your life should be enriched by your relationship and everything should be in harmony. But no one is perfect so you do have to find someone with flaws you can livewith. Follow your heart.

Thank you, for the welcome and for posting!
I hope you guys find what you are looking for:D

Lol okay. Any way you feel I could put more passion into it? I tried thinking of a few ways but I dont want to sound like a cheerleader either lol!

Seems like all metal seems to have some growling...

Just want some opinions. Do I sound boring?

Unfortunately it was only taught in person. I met a few teachers and learned from them also. Stillness-movement seemed to help me understand it the most, but be ready for what you find because it can more be felt rather than understood with the mind. I realized and was taught that the mind was a tool and not the seat of consciousness. Really life changing stuff to realize that the mind can only hold you back.

Ive read a lot of his books.
Have you also read Micheal Winn's stuff (part of the healing tao here in the states?)

He also seems to disagree in some ways with Mantak Chia's teaching methods. Some of them are to teach everything upfront where as some training like fusion of the five elements took months or years to teach properly and were taught when the student was ready to go forward.

What about Shifting? Have you heard about it or learned it before?

When I speak of it I mean shifting into the energy field.

I have to agree with that!

Most public sentiment now about genetic modifications is negative based upon religious sentiment. I say that because a president set a precident to try to make it difficult if not impossible because most research in its infancy then required stemcells from non-living babies. Sorry I tried to sugar coat it. Now we have found stemcells in many other parts of the body as of a few years ago.

So, since this religious sentiment or elements within organizations which have that sentiment push for power with lots of money... I don't see it happening. Without enough funding and just a small company a few million dollars won't advance squat.

Hi I am a guy who has recently moved here from South Dakota and am enjoying my time here in Virginia Beach.

Rather than complacentcy or apathy I have quite a bit of patience. That is because I also like to invent things.

So if you like: Interested in Philosophy, Computers, Alt-Rock/Indie-Rock, Hiking, Exercise or any one of these maybe just maybe we can find a time out of our schedules to meet in a neutral place.

Conversation is always welcome.

Kind of became free verse at the end.

Has anyone in recent years just generally become sick of political debate or people talking about politics insead of just reporting the facts.

Doesnt it just seem like either party just plays for the same team or takes money from the same corporations to sway their vote?

Dont the same old debates seem to have gotten more tasteless with instead of really witty comments people just asserting the other is wrong which looks incredably dumb?

I mean really if I hear more about politics I want to go visit the porcelin god.

Zen has a strong non-dual tradition. So yes!!

I generally prefer the concept of intention instead of belief, but that is from my buddhist/taoist background. Sometimes we can try to believe something but our fears and other emotions we feel can sometimes cloud our reality. They become subconscious shadows that can wreak havok on something if we have trouble believing it. In the end the over powering feelings create the subconscious intention that something is wrong which in reality comes from intention.

What does that mean? Maybe some parts of what we believe we do so for a reason that cannot be comprehended or we are in someways for ever a product of experiences we cannot overcome?

...hmm maybe I should have a beer.

Thank you. I wasnt exactly sure what you meant and didnt want to jump to any conclusions so I thought there was some kind of misunderstanding somewhere in what we were talking about. Many people draw conclusions who are not part of the scientific community. I aim to mean people whos passions sway the sentiment of the general public. But, I did not say that! So you were right to question me further about it. :D

When I was writing what I did I was thinking about a scientist I read about who studied different species of pomegranate throught the world and on Socotra Island. Because of what could be implied by his life work, people chose to ignore or antagonize him in which he reflected upon humanities prejudices.

Aye, some times there is a big difference in what you are thinking about and what is said. Most can't read thoughts and if they can it might not be perfect lol.

It is a law of human nature that states that prejudices are often strongly held and kept rather than accept the possible benefits of a person or persons.
I take your question simply to mean that you may not have experienced this or learned this part of humanity as a society.

Life is full of stuff and not everyone learns how to ferment bacteria and do gel tests.

Thank you for posting!

Because it encompasses the five forces. Not only that but electricity and magnetism are related. Electricity can be increased by increasing the inductive field: E.g. the new inductive chargers you place your phone on without plugging them in. Vis-Visa Inductive fields can be increased by increasing electric throughput.
