The male and the female of the cosmos----We are all manifestations of this unity. | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 789975 United States 01/13/2012 03:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very curious...your explanation of holding that kind of "voltage" makes me wonder about the actual union of two such people and what effects (or outflow of it) would occur via such union. The ancients left behind many indicators that showed a fierce protection of such unity. But it seems that over the generations the importance of protecting a connection like it has been reduced to a religious law based "marriage" concept that barely does the reality (or potential of it) justice. More thoughts on that I guess will come...seems this thread may gear up to explore that more. |

And along the lines of this thread, the manifestations of this unity (sacredness and the alchemical marriage and such) you might also like this one... Thread: the TRUTH....... I AM YOU....YOU ARE I (Page 23) Really? That is interesting. Quoting: ArunaLuna The story of Frankenstein is a great adventure into logic versus imagination. And the inevitable fall that will occur when the feminine is conveniently left out of the creative process. Your right...! They must have tried to rectify it by doing the sequel , " The bride of Frankenstein" Yes, and that didn't turn out so well...the bride rejects him when presented to him...after which he destroys himself, her, and their creator. |

I learned early on that it is easier to learn from others success and mistakes too so the internet BBS, message & discussion boards, forums etc. are a huge resource of wisdom for me, more than anything else now. it also allows me to view many perspectives on the same subjects so that really makes a huge difference in how I see things. being able to understand what and how others understand. back in the day (pre-www) I was limited because of my reading comprehension level is so low. I literally have to read the same things about three times to get it. not allways but if its from scholarly types it seems they over complicate their writings trying to seem more intelligent or something. maybe thats just me but I am simple minded (by choice not disposition) like free-flow, minimal friction type of deal. you know.. OK now we are getting personal here huh? me.. "Im a loner but Im never alone, every night I get one step closer to the danger zone" that really sums it up pretty well, more so if you continue from there with that song Im too selective myself and thats the main reason Im a loner but as Ive aged I found I dont mind being alone and to be honest as I awaken I enjoy being alone more than ever because I cant seem find locals (real people LOL) who can relate. I also get distracted easily arround others and so that complicates everything so... Im so alone and its Great, I wish all the depressed people who feel lonely could see how good it can be. I wish I could become celibate (this is really personal so you can skip this if you dont want to read icky stuff) this is where it sux to be male.. and I probably have issues ontop of that but we definately have a high volatage force within. very difficult to control, alone or not and this is what I struggle with more than anything! I cant contain it.. I want to and sort of know it is what is holding me back. I want to transmut this into the above instead of .. well you know. I need to find the schematics, specifics on how this works (transmutation) whats actually happening but Im pretty sure there is none. if I could just see/understand what is happening in a technical way I feel that would enable me to gain a solid control over this. thats why Im here right.. thats what this thread is about really. for now I plan to just start meditating regularly but I still have this fire breathing dragon to deal with and its no average dragon this one. so there I wrote it. I hope thats ok, its REAL and im being honest. this is also why I have often wished I was a female. I know there are some pretty big drawbacks the women deal with but nothing like this (HIGH VOLTAGE/MAX AMPERAGE) its probably the cause of at least 75% if not more of all their problems... and thats just the field currents emmited indirectly so to speak. if any of you other males out there have something (specs) let me know. thats it, this is the largest post Ive ever made here on GLP. Im not too proud of it either but yeah.. needs some help here.. Im hoping to break on through to the other side.. thanks Male Left here, so not to hijack OP! but you asked for "other males out there" so I feel inclined to digress. Shall we? By the way your post is humorous, sad, real, and heartfelt. Unlike some of the other dribble I find on GLP, so be proud! Emotional content you have a plenty. If I read your post right and understood you, basically you have a healthy sexual appetite ("fire breathing dragon") Also there is some guilt about masturbation ("I want to transmut this into the above instead of .. well you know") I feel you and I are in this thread for similar reasons. Which in my mind is learning about Male Female ...stuff, and thusly how to improve said "stuff" lol Does that get the just of it? If yes, please be aware, by reading your post I find that you are a caring a thoughtful person with deep feelings and will find what you are looking for sooner or later. May I ask about your dreams and meditations? Are they vivid or rather do you remember them or have records, what are they about and how do you feel about what you see in them? again sorry OP's thread here just felt the urge to jump in. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1362384 United States 01/13/2012 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For the record.. Quoting: SecondPrecession I have never tried any of this with a partner, I started researching it over the last two years of celibacy. Because I have alot of respect for the power of this dynamic, I am happy to experiment in ways other than sexual ones for the time being until it is safe. Have you tried the Vipassana form of meditation? Give it a try and it is absolutely free - stay and food. No abracadabra, religious chanting or any form of mumbo jumbo - just mere focus on the breathing and going inward of one self - way of life/art of living as taught by Gautama the Buddha 2500 years ago. I try to encourage everyone I meet to check it out at least once. Check www.dhamma.org for a center closest to you |

You like your rules, don't you. Nopes. What you refer to as "The rules" are mere guidelines for de-constructing (am deliberately using that word) "the present you" because of all of present day society programming and conditioning. I happened across this by chance and the first five days were absolutely horrific. One has to turn in the cell phone as soon as you check in and there is a complete silence maintained till the last day of the camp. That again has reasons behind it. Trust me when I say this as a rational adult with a scientific background and was a tad skeptical when I first approached it. It cannot be explained - but rather has to be experienced (and there is nothing New age about it because one is naked in front of one self). Take from it what you will. As a joke I tell folks that the least they come out of there after 10 days is by shedding at least five pounds of weight. |

Ya, stuff like this is weird for me. But maybe it is not so literal. More like the qualities of one heavenly body or the other has a feminine or male dominant aspect. The moon as a trickster. Could be. IDK. That tttthhhhoooootthhhhhhhh meditation during this last full moon really was powerful for me. I want to tie into the magic of it, but only if it is a path worth taking. Do you have any more info on the moon? or where did you hear of the trickster part? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1362384 The whole thing sounds horrific, imo. But, each to their own. If does something for you. How much does it cost? The first five days were tough because it was all about trying to quieten the mind which kept wandering all over the place. The whole thing is ABSOLUTELY free. After the course is over you may donate or not (no compulsions whatsoever) either money or your time to help behind the scenes. I prefer to donate my time (whenever possible) to help in the kitchen etc. . |
