Welcome to The Pub At the End of the Universe.

You're only saying that because you can't grow a moustache.

You are indeed assuming a lot right there, aren't you...

*has further sudden brilliant idea involving a razor, some creativity and pubic hair*

[another bob]

well, power outages are fun and all that, and I'm glad the fun is over. Now I know for certain I need two things- a backup battery for the modem, and a backup power source for this laptop as its battery is suck....

Power's iffy here in the mountains today, a big storm with on and off hail. We've fired up the wood stove -- a real necessity here . . .

Tell Borden he has to share.

What?! How dare you, sir! I resent that wild and wholly accurate assumption!

[songsfortheotherkind]

Tell Borden he has to share.

*laughs* He knows that- hungry little succubus, I be, with a taste for very different signals. *wicked gleam*

I am, however, discovering that I'm rather possessive about my own harem and get kind of fangy with those I perceive as intruders... which has kicked my sui generis in its pointy eared arse and I now have to go wrestle with that. Foosticks. *laughing more*

I can't even bullsh!t my Self. How tedious! *strikes dramatic and tragic pose* F*uck, can't keep that up for more than three seconds either... well, foo, I'll just have to take up the mantle of Utterly Fabulous Being and make it work with my outfit. :D

[songsfortheotherkind]

And now, something I discovered with some astonishment yesterday.

I can feed, succubus style, off the virus within me. I've tried it out on a wider scale, and apparently I can also feed on virus outside of me, as long as I'm really grounded and have absolute pure energy and intention.

This has opened up a WHOLE new ballgame, at least for me and the other Cubus. There is now a large scale pointing of attention towards the virus from the Otherrealms and I have never had it flee from me as actively as it's currently doing.

I'm just wondering if anyone who is able to pick up subtle shifts in the vibrations can feel what I'm feeling about the tremoring in the virus or if it's purely an Otherkind/Cubus thing. I'm feeling very very- Other- at the moment, in a background kind of way; it appears that I'm taking part in an Otherkind/Cubus action in another aspect of my Self.

*shakes suddenly very shaggy haired and horned head* I'll be mightily happy when these horns are back on my head for real...

It flees laughter, more than even silence.

(Shhhh, handsome dude alert! PurpleLama!) :wave:

I certainly do agree :)

[Cerridwen]

Arrgggh... the lights flickered and my computer turned off a while ago losing my original post! The virus is busy in the pub today. I’ll try it again now.

Yes, I do still have slips, more often that I care to admit. Usually, I can get myself back on track pretty quickly, but some days are very dark and just need to written off all together. I call those my “pissy, pity-party days”. I find those happen most often when I don’t take enough time out for mySelf. Because of my childhood, I easily fall into the old trap of trying to take care of everyone else’s needs first, thinking this puts me in control. When in fact, this is when I actually give away any control I do have over myself to others. Even though I know this, I still keep doing it. Damn virus.

*Repeats mantra to Self* I’m not responsible for anyone but mySelf. I am 100% responsible for everything that I create.

Calz, the duality stuff helps me also, when I finally remember to take a step back and look at it from that perspective. My knee jerk reaction is still usually anger in varying degrees. Yup, I’ve still got a long way to go. *Sigh* The suffering children get me every. single. time. too, Borden. When I hear stories about them, the momma bear in me wants to lash out and just destroy. If you, or anyone else, figures out a good way to cope with that subject, please let me know.

I will say that since I’ve been hanging out in the Pub, I have become much, much more aware of my thoughts and reactions. I love it, thank you all!

Now I’ve got to go find a pic to answer Songs...

[lotusblossom]

Moustache wars. Do you think they're compensating for something?

I do not know about all these other moustaches, but PL definety has no need to use a moustache for compensation for anything!!!

[songsfortheotherkind]

Hey calz - bit philosophical bro - been dipping into my malts?

Beaut eye candy but whats with the blood? Seems to be a recurring thing in esoteric art - this vampire thing is out of control !

Welcome to the Pub, LotusBlossom!


:yo:

[PurpleLama]

The comfort resides only in seeing on both sides of the veil, Cerridwen. As the child of a suicide, I continued to deal with suicide in several major relationships. And learning the lesson, so to speak, I've not had to deal with that one since. My earliest memory is of a dream, of being an adult, and committing suicide. My dad died when I was 16, and I dealt with three girlfriends after that until I had my experience of learning, which isn't a great way to put it, but it describes it well enough. So I know the truth of meeting self in the reality in a very direct way. So, if you ever hear me mention karma in relation to the suffering of innocents, please know I didn't just read that somewhere. The balancing of karma was very central to my own awakening in a very uncomfortable way. It is a valid thought that does oft seem offensive when touted by one who has not undergone the experience of such balance.

The experience gave me a very firm foundational certainty in the unbroken and eternal ground of being. Learning why of what I did that other time has led me to become the wizard I am today, but I should be about twenty five years older, according to the divine plan. No suffering is pointless, but no one with a heart will think so when faced with it, nonetheless.

No pox on them then!! It shall be The Pax! Yes, we may eliminate large numbers of the global population, and yes, we'll be creating Reavers, but dammit, we'll be preventing a world wide outbreak of Morris dancing and that's all matters!!

Crying is good, get it up and out. Nice to do it in water too. I go up into the forest now and then for a bit of cry as well if I have some stuff I want to let out. The bears and the birds just give me a wide berth :) Sun and wind on your face and it´s bliss.

Just reading the overnight pub news. Shennanigans, hair, lots of hair and girls gone ... well I thought it fit I take me self off for a splash and a scrub down.

Screaming, now, that requires more remote locations, heh. The back paddock is excellent, especially if I head into the forest. :P

It's been a while since I've let go and had a good cry. I'm sorry you needed to last night. :hug:

I first made that video to post into the here and now thread. The conversation surrounding that was quite funny. I had initially failed to caution folks that to use the seal for selfish purposes might cause one's fingers to be burnt off, whereupon tony posted a pic of burnt fingers with something to the effect of now you tell me.

And I still ain't out of the woods dude! Took this pic yesterday.

Hey, there was even a bit of belly-dancing in there; well....kinda....sort of....

[songsfortheotherkind]

In preparation for the launch of Pub Club, I want to start a conversation about the energetic and other practices that the various individuals here might have embraced as part of their evolving process. The idea is to pool our resources with a view to combining our power and talents, kicking this evolution into the next level and possibly creating a mutual platform where we can actually gather together in the etheric realms and co-create there.

Things that I naturally do or have learned to do:

I can 'see' energy, but I don't use the eyes in my face to do it. There are 'eyes' all over my body, centres of energy where I can receive and interpret energy signals; for example, if I want to read an individual's signal I'll look slightly off to their right and use the eyes in the front of my chest, just in the hollows of my shoulders, to read their signal. I also use the internal eyes to look out at things using a different set of input parameters.

I play with information from different parts of my brain. I concentrate on making different parts of my brain glow and fire synaptically; one of the games I used to play as a kid was a 'glowing shuttle' game, where I'd pretend my mind was a loom and I'd see how many shuttles I could get firing from one side of my mind to the other, leaving a glowing trail of light and working on linking all the various parts of my brain together. The idea is to keep them smooth in their path, working up to as many as you can keep moving. I can't remember the exact figure I used to be able to get to, but it was many.

Binaural beats/brainwave entrainment- I love these, especially the ones for enhancing intuition, pineal gland activation, lucid dreaming/astral projection and similar themes. There are tons of them on youtube: if you're into them leave you tube links here so we can share. I'm always on the lookout for good ones. I also use the binaural beats/solfeggio tones for meditation: I can't silent meditate but I can deep dive with these tools.

The Silva Method has some really interesting pathways that have accelerated my own evolution. I'm particularly interested in the ones relating to ESP and all its related elements and the healing modality, which includes hacking one's own DNA. I've been interested in this for the past two years and I want to really focus on activating my DNA into my Otherkind form, the one that I want to expressly create. DNA is a responder, which means it actually responds to the program that you put *into* it rather than telling the physical how to be. For those interested in such things as the natural biological fluidity contained within the physical realms, Bruce Lipton's Biology of Belief is a great place to start.

Tuning of the water:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlWboI_0obk

I think I've posted this before *and* it's so good it's worth posting again. This gives a robust explanation of why it's good to tune water, and how to connect water with one's intention and purpose. This is particularly pertinent given the attacks that water is under all over the globe- tuning the water can reverse the effects of chlorine, fluoride and a heap of other nasties that are detrimental to high vibration functioning. These days when I tune the water I leave this planet and go somewhere else, which kind of surprised me big time when it first happened.

Vegetarianism. This works for me and happened literally overnight, again- this time it seems to be sticking. My aim is to get to mostly raw organic food and see how close to vegan I can be without causing me harm. I take iodine - one drop- a day and this has made a HUGE difference to my mental processes and calmness. Superfoods, especially chia seeds, wheatgrass and other juices, and probiotics also make all the difference to my ability to cope with the emotional, energetic and biological noise around me.

Magnesium oil: I am utterly indebted to my osteopath for introducing me to transdermal magnesium oil, it has essentially reduced the seriousness and duration of my panic and adrenal attacks down to a mere fraction of what they were, as well as slowly restoring a degree of flexibility and supple strength to my body that I haven't had for several decades. Today I was stretching and without a thought simply held onto my elbows and folded my Self over, laying my forearms flat along the floor with my legs apart only wide enough to get my arms between them. It took me ten or so seconds *after* I'd done it to realise I hadn't been able to do that for almost a decade, due to pregnancy injury. Magnesium has so many benefits and is chronically deficient due to toxic agricultural practices; it's also extremely difficult to get enough magnesium orally to really make a difference as it's only about 30% absorbed orally. I spray my body with the oil in the morning and take oral magnesium at night and it's having truly amazing results.

Belly breathing- this is a kind of kinesiology self test that gives instant biofeedback on anything and it's really simple. Basically there are two main types of breathing- the deep breath into the belly, which signifies a 'yes', positive and embracing openness in the body- and the hitch into upper chest breathing, which is the pulling away, constricting, 'no', rejecting response. Try holding onto something that is full of MSG, mentally ask the question 'is this good for me?' and see what happens to your breathing; now try it with something you experience as being good for you and watch what happens. Try it when you're unsure about something, a situation or individual; when you are exploring your own path and are looking for information or intuition; when you are wanting to know what is exactly right for your body, your healing. Once you have used this technique for awhile you'll find that you consciously 'know' before your belly responds; this means you are using your biological mechanism to fine tune your awareness and intuition about your Self, your physical avatar and your interaction with the world. It's something I have long taught my children, to 'go with their gut'- when they listen to their belly their lives make waaaaay more sense.

I have a heap of energy practices and techniques that I have used since I was a child, although I'm sporadic with these. I really want to learn to astral travel and remote view, so I'm going to focus on these things, as well as deepening my experience of the long distance tantra, expansions and succubus exchanges I've started engaging in. We can talk about those if there's an interest. :)

[Heyoka_11]

In preparation for the launch of Pub Club, I want to start a conversation about the energetic and other practices that the various individuals here might have embraced as part of their evolving process.

Wow Songsy, that's a lot to chew on!

My commitment to various practices does tend to be somewhat spasmodic, but like you, I have used brainwave entrainment for an extended period. I used Holosync, working my way down through the levels over a three year period; still leaves about five or six years to go. Certainly slept soundly, though for a shorter period of time, which I found a bit annoying. My use of Holosync was halted when I began working offshore, and earplugs became a neccesity, lest I listen to others snoring and farts all night long.

Bruce Lipton is an absolute legend. "The Wisdom of Your Cells" was a treat, and I have started it over once again (good for long drives). I too have "The Biology of Belief", and have listened to it once only. I have a massive collection of audio on all matters esoteric, and find that simply listening can induce a resftful state of mind. It is simply so good to hear wisdom teachings, that I find that I do not necessarily need to take in every word, as there is quite often a basic 'take home message', as a university professor used to call it, that one has at the conclusion of a learnning lesson. If this simple tenet can be incorporated into ones life, great benefit can follow.

I am also heavily into supplementation, taking as much to as it needs to make up for dietary deficiencies. To this I add selenium, Lugol's idione and Zell Immunocomplex.

A few years ago I got into Qigong, which if I had to, would be my chosen mode of energy practice. It was bloody amazing what one could achieve in such a short time. To form a ball of energy between one's hands, which was as tactile as any physical object was all I needed to be convinced of Qigongs validity.

That'll do for now, gotta go cook dinner.

[Debra]

I love to hear about how others attend to their inner health and well being. This is a treat. Over the years I have embarked and held onto a number of regimes - which is not the word I want to use - because I feel it connotes something that I enforce upon myself, rather than flow into and feel where it naturally belongs.

I am very much a work in progress and at times, I am excrutiatingly aware of falling by the way due to a lack of self esteem. I will let old emotional patterns of response to rear up and I end up sabotaging. I do make headway, I am not stunted but I am aware that a deeper level of release and shift is very much required. At least I am aware of this but I continue to have holding patterns, which I know do not serve me. For example, I know there are parts of my body, where I still hold onto 'old stuff' that time and again I look for ways to release. And just when I start sensing change, something happens to test me, and I find I can not sustain the changes that I have started. I notice this mostly through my knees (bear in mind here that I never want to resort to surgical solutions) because I still hold faith in the power of self healing.

Consequently, holistic health practices - of many modalities - I have reached out to over the years. This is one, overall discipline I suppose that I have sustained after almost killing myself on antibiotics about 30 years ago. I have gone down the road of learning some healing modalities as well, including a form of medical intuition but have not gone into practice, although I do treat, when asked, my family members and friends.

Where I have 'officially' practiced is in the field of voice and body training for performance - focussing on the emotional, psychological and physical aspects of ourselves in making meaning and expression. Identifying and working through tensions that inhibit natural and connected communication. In conjunction with this, I have trained and practiced in multiple methods of actor and performance training to stimulate and catalyse creativity - to free the self to a place of just being in the moment, open and available. My role for many years was as a performer but also as a director and trainer to help facilitate a similar journey for others. I have worked with actors and performers principally, but also with writers and later within corporations and governments for cultural change - the hardest job of all. Although successful in what I was doing, I have moved on from this in the last 3 years, because my own growth and evolution needed to be honoured. I have always known that I would be part of a transition - a nebulous word that literally popped into my psyche when I was in my teens - and just stayed there, wondering what to do with itself.

6sOiyl-TVCw

So, here I set the stage a little for why I am here. I am putting a call out to help me follow through in my own evolution, because I do want to be of better service. I have started talking to invisible entities - that is the only way I can explain my experience of connecting with a source that I believe is there to support my ongoing journey - and my request is to proceed and with consciousness. I am not a full vegetarian - yet. I love raw, vegan food. Especially good strong greens. Where I currently live however - culture that prevails with a meat based diet and co-exists with long winters - it is a challenge to access freshly grown produce, but also other supplements that I think are universal moments of goodness, like cocoanut oil. Summers though can offer awesome abundance in berries, which I can pick in the forests till I turn red.

I am very interested to learn more about tuning water. Also, food. Are there ways to do this? The supplements that Songs and Heyoka _11 refer to - I would like to know more - why you take them, and how they are bringing you benefits.

Really appreciate this thread. For now, I am going to settle back and watch the video that Songs pasted with Rustum ROY and I make a note to add Bruce Lipton's books The Biology of Belief and The Wisdom of Your Cells to my reading list.

Thanks Songs. I hope to contribute as much as I am generously being given by people here already.

Zebra, I can really relate to everything you just said. Headaches are my big clue when I'm on to something nasty. I seem to be getting them more often again lately, including one right now.

I've used the binaural beats/brainwave entrainment in the past, but stopped for some stupid reason. I should start up with them again, I already have a nice collection.

A simple thing I do when I'm feeling overwhelmed is to just ground myself and clear out my root chakra. I close my eyes. Say "hello" to my root chakra and wait until I can see it glowing red and feel it tingle. Next, I say "hello" to the Mother Earth and wait until I can feel her response. Then, I imagine a large branch of a tree, the same diameter of my root chakra growing out of it and reaching down into the earth and say "hello grounding cord". (I'm strongly connected to the North Node/ Earth element, so the tree branch works for me as my cord. I know others like to use a gold or silver cord or even a rainbow. Try out different cords and see what feels right to you.) I watch it grow and extend all the way down into the center of the earth. When it gets there I say "hello" to the center of the earth, and imagine my cord anchoring itself there in the exact center. I then return to the surface and ask my cord to carry anything that is stuck in my root chakra and not serving me, to be sent out via my cord into the earth. I ask the Mother Earth to please use that energy where she sees fit and thank her for her assistance. Sometimes this process is pretty quick, and other times it takes a while. It just depends on how much emotional baggage I've been carrying around with me. After that one has been cleared I then check on the next chakra and work my way up if I feel the need to.

I take magnesium drops, I'll have to look into the body spray as well. Vitamin D is another supplement that I like. I've also been making herbal tinctures for a few years now, those seem to help with immunity and fighting off bugs during cold season too.

:cantina: Just wanted to try it. *giggles*

I take d3, usually about 3000 iu a day, and I get another thousand with my "rainbow light" men's multi vitamin. It's organic and vegan, but I am a meat eater. With all the feline dna I've ingested over the years (cat hair) it's a wonder I'm not a carnivore. I have taken on some rather useful feline characteristics, like not giving a f-uck about what most people do.

By the way, we should all be thankful that the pub continues in the public purview.

Herbal tinctures, I always feels that it must be something special when I hear that word. When I used to have home grown herbs, like lemon grass, it was the first herb in the garden that I reached out to when I felt a cold coming on. I also like steeping ginger and lemon too to a pot. Do you work with hot and cold water for tinctures, Cerridwen? Is there a special process you use?

I was interested in the use of silver tea pots - briefly touched on in that video that Songs posted today about water.

By the way, I do like this meditation you do. It is imagery I can really relate to. THANK YOUx

I love to hear about how others attend to their inner health and well being. This is a treat. Over the years I have embarked and held onto a number of regimes - which is not the word I want to use - because I feel it connotes something that I enforce upon myself, rather than flow into and feel where it naturally belongs.

The thing I have discovered in my own journey is that where things naturally belong and where I find my Self are often worlds apart. For decades I struggled with keeping anything 'worldly', including the practices and ideas of others, out of my space because I experienced everything as being loaded with virus; what I discovered through this long process was that I kept my Self out mostly through the fear response I'd learned to have towards everything not me, rather than strong and positive intuition. I then would take on practices because I thought I was 'supposed' to, using the parameters of others that had no true relevance or relationship for me.

I don't stick to anything. I pick things up and put them down because if I'm flowing with my process certain things are relevant and useful at times and then not. This includes supplements, what I eat and what energy/consciousness/physical practices I do. One of the things that challenges me about this is that I frequently don't give my Self the space and experiences that I truly want and that are calling to me because I get tangled in my connections to and with others. This is something I'm currently working through in a big way- I have little choice, if I want to stay open and healthy, because my life has become chock full of individuals I'm finding my Self loving. *laughing* The lessons are coming to me thick and fast and I've had to lift my game from slothing along to alert and deep focus practically overnight. This has been an excellent kick in the arse. :D


I am very much a work in progress and at times, I am excrutiatingly aware of falling by the way due to a lack of self esteem. I will let old emotional patterns of response to rear up and I end up sabotaging. I do make headway, I am not stunted but I am aware that a deeper level of release and shift is very much required. At least I am aware of this but I continue to have holding patterns, which I know do not serve me.

Before I fully got the full scope and function of the virus and how it works within me, I used to beat the crap out of my Self. Now I know what the game with it is- to keep me from my sui generis- and that it most definitely is something that has been intentionally and intricately manufactured with the specific intent to be both a trap and the mirror, I am much much more adept at dealing with the sabotage it creates, seeing all those behaviours and traps as something in front of me, something playing chess with me when I don't like to play chess at all, so I change the game. Seeing the patterns within as one's personal map of the virus can be utterly transformative- I know that this has happened for several individuals with whom I've come into physical and/or energetic contact.


For example, I know there are parts of my body, where I still hold onto 'old stuff' that time and again I look for ways to release. And just when I start sensing change, something happens to test me, and I find I can not sustain the changes that I have started. I notice this mostly through my knees (bear in mind here that I never want to resort to surgical solutions) because I still hold faith in the power of self healing.

The tests are triggering the internal beliefs- that's how the virus works. Personally, these days I embrace the lessons of the virus with deep appreciation because it's like those within the Cabal that are working towards bringing the system down; the virus has become a powerful 'dark' ally, so that while I might not enjoy the tools that it has for bringing things to my attention (the physical symptoms of toxic poisoning and adrenal attack are distressing in the extreme), I have learned if I pay attention at the first sign of trouble, go looking for whatever it is that the virus is bringing to my attention and deal with it, the attack ceases. The virus and I have found a way to dance with one another for our mutual benefit, because in embracing my own dark passenger I am gifted the most accurate and aware ally in navigating the virus at large- it is, after all, an aspect of it- and I can free my own alabaster skin and white eyes in the process.

http://data.whicdn.com/images/13195696/dark_passenger_by_maru_light-d3jmun4_large.jpg

Our Shadows hold the key to what really needs to happen in terms of the virus, when we learn Shadow language. I know now that the elemental Virus created me strives constantly, in her own sharp clawed and bloodstained way, to free us both from our cages. This kind of love is not easy in any way, and it works for me, because I personally don't live in a world that is free from the virus and all energy wants to evolve, to respond to the pulsing beat of the All's great purpose and intent, which is why even the virus itself evolves. I simply want to assist the Shadow to evolve in a way that doesn't result in constant entrappedness for either of us.

This is one, overall discipline I suppose that I have sustained after almost killing myself on antibiotics about 30 years ago. I have gone down the road of learning some healing modalities as well, including a form of medical intuition but have not gone into practice, although I do treat, when asked, my family members and friends.

I am clearing long term health issues from both antibiotics and cortisone. This is where the intuition comes in so brilliantly- I have learned the hard way that what takes three tablets in other individuals takes a quarter of one in me. I have had to learn about careful choice of any kind of practitioner- nowadays I use my belly breathing and intuition, which is effective right up until the voice in my head tries to convince me I have cancer, then I run into my death fear; I've died twice from the suffocation of asthma as a child, I listened to my mother struggling for breath during the last long hours of her life when she was dying of breast and lung cancer and there is residual and powerful fear in my body of dying in terror and pain like I did as a child. I also actually get really pissed off with recycling, because it interrupts the process that I've been working with in that physical avatar. From childhood I used to tell people that I'd come through this time with assurances that the physical recycling was *not* in the agreement and that I'd be able to have my immortality back. There's apparently a battle within me biologically with the virus as it doesn't like immortals. :P I can't imagine why. So I oscillate between being able to do things in terms of physically altering my avatar and being frozen in fear within the foreign biology. It's quite weird, feeling like some of the problem is in trapped DNA.

Medical intuition is awesome. I'm into meta medicine and energy psychology because they help me hack the physical elements of the virus as manifests in my biology. I'm also beginning to map the elements of my non-humanness, which responds to things in a very different way.


Where I have 'officially' practiced is in the field of voice and body training for performance - focussing on the emotional, psychological and physical aspects of ourselves in making meaning and expression. Identifying and working through tensions that inhibit natural and connected communication. In conjunction with this, I have trained and practiced in multiple methods of actor and performance training to stimulate and catalyse creativity - to free the self to a place of just being in the moment, open and available. My role for many years was as a performer but also as a director and trainer to help facilitate a similar journey for others. I have worked with actors and performers principally, but also with writers and later within corporations and governments for cultural change - the hardest job of all. Although successful in what I was doing, I have moved on from this in the last 3 years, because my own growth and evolution needed to be honoured. I have always known that I would be part of a transition - a nebulous word that literally popped into my psyche when I was in my teens - and just stayed there, wondering what to do with itself.

*grins, pointing to self* So many of us are such good actors! My essence Self figured out that if I stayed in that environment my evolution would be sporked, so it arranged for me not to pursue that path, despite the urgings and offers of others. The transition, the feeling of being part of some great transition and evolution, micro and macro, has always been my internal prompting even when it was a faint whisper from three valleys over. I went into body based performance because that seemed to be a better pathway for my evolution; I'm in my head enough as it is, it was my physical intuition and expression that needed connecting with. I was always a dancer.

I have a brilliant article from a few years ago discussing the emerging technology of medical diagnosis through voice analysis- I'd be happy to copy it and post it to you if you're interested, or find out if it's online anywhere. One of my partners and a friend of ours is creating a protype frequency generator that makes contact with the skin, like binaural beats for the body, that are keyed to the healing frequencies. I love frequency healing, I love sound healing (such as bells, crystal bowls, didgeridoo played near me, tuning forks activated and placed on my body- having a crystal bowl on my belly while it's being played would, I've intuited, trigger something big. I haven't been in the space to do that yet). Sound and water dance therapy are my idea of bliss. I love voice stuff because the virus keeps trying to strangle me and cut off my voice.

THIS IS BRILLIANT!! I would *so* love to see this in its entirety! I absolutely adore this sort of performance, it makes me squee in the extreme, coming from the background of contact improv that I do. Incredible imagery and concepts.


So, here I set the stage a little for why I am here. I am putting a call out to help me follow through in my own evolution <>

That's what the Pub was created for in the macro sense. In the micro sense, it was utterly self serving motivation. :P


I have started talking to invisible entities - that is the only way I can explain my experience of connecting with a source that I believe is there to support my ongoing journey - and my request is to proceed and with consciousness.

Hurrah, so I'm not the only one that will be doing things like interrupting my physical conversations to respond to invisible conversations! I have trained my Self not to do that on skype or when I'm in company, although if I'm really comfortable with an individual/s I don't bother with diverting my energy into keeping a watch on my Self.


I am not a full vegetarian - yet. I love raw, vegan food. Especially good strong greens. Where I currently live however - culture that prevails with a meat based diet and co-exists with long winters - it is a challenge to access freshly grown produce, but also other supplements that I think are universal moments of goodness, like cocoanut oil. Summers though can offer awesome abundance in berries, which I can pick in the forests till I turn red.

*delighted rolling about on the floor* Berries! Coconut oil! I'm currently having a love fest with rice crackers slathered in coconut oil, vegan vege spread, piled with greens and topped with avocado and sundried tomato. *bounces* I also practically live at times on oat milk, raspberry, chia seed and cacao superfood smoothies. I would happily bathe in a tub full of berries. :D


I am very interested to learn more about tuning water. Also, food. Are there ways to do this?

Tuning the food is the same as the water, because food is full of water. Praying over food is a vestigial remnant of the understanding regarding tuning the frequency of whatever we take into the avatar, so pausing before eating to connect with the food on an elemental and energetic level, link that to one's experience of All and Creator energy, visualise the purpose and intent pouring into the food while expanding the high frequency channels within the body and connect the food to that frequency/connect to the frequency of the planet that the food contains. Try that, see what, if anything, shifts. For my Self, this gets into the realms that others call magical (but that's because they don't realise it's all magick, heh). :P Approaching things with consciousness shifts a *lot* of things that prior appear to be fixed.


The supplements that Songs and Heyoka _11 refer to - I would like to know more - why you take them, and how they are bringing you benefits.

Essentially, everything for me comes down to these things- activating my non-human element and powering up my mind and avatar so that I can have increasingly higher levels of energy and experience going through me without freaking out. The magnesium is primarily to facilitate the non freak-out; if I use the mag oil, there is a smoothing out of the clashing between the homosapien DNA in me and my Otherkind nature; the chronic pain goes down to almost nothing, knots and kinks in my body disappear, I don't get the chronic head aches and distress that have been happening due to the increased planetary dissonance and the effects of my Otherkind trying to wake up. My 17 year old son contacted me recently in great distress because his body was trying to physically shift forms and the pain was excruciating- the planetary miasm that currently exists can make being Otherkind physically painful and distressing. It took me 3 decades to get used to the sun here and I can safely posit that the increased numbers of Otherkind here on the planet have been a boon to the sunglasses industry. My eyes are having all kinds of problems again at the moment, because my Otherkind nature does not like the light here and I'm having trouble seeing where I've never experienced that before. The mag oil and oral supplements also seems to be helping with that, because on a physical level it smooths out muscle.

The vitamin D is something I've realised I need to start doing because frankly, I loathe going out in the sun unless the light is right. My Otherkind form is albino skinned, with the faintest hint of blueness to the shadows, I have eyes that look like the baseball cap wearing hybrid (who, btw, I posted because he is SUCH A cutie!)- I'm not a creature built for beach frolics in the blazing sun. I have never liked the sun here and I have recently been intuiting that vit D supplementation is something I could do well to get into. Thanks for the reminder. :)


Really appreciate this thread. For now, I am going to settle back and watch the video that Songs pasted with Rustum ROY and I make a note to add Bruce Lipton's books The Biology of Belief and The Wisdom of Your Cells to my reading list.

Thanks Songs. I hope to contribute as much as I am generously being given by people here already.

You're welcome and I thank you too. My intention with this is that we can all start to experiment with evolving Self in whatever way that emerges to be expressed and embraced. I want to speed up my evolution and am prepared to do whatever it takes to do that. :)

Stunning stuff, thank you so much for this gorgeous start to my day.

[songsfortheotherkind]

It's organic and vegan, but I am a meat eater. With all the feline dna I've ingested over the years (cat hair) it's a wonder I'm not a carnivore.

*nods* I fully relate to the thing of vegan/vegetarian not suiting all Beings- I have three shifter sons, two of whom would literally die if they were reduced to vegan/vegetarian diets. The youngest has done interesting things with his shifter and he also has a higher ratio of my own DNA, so he's not so Otherkind shifter natured. My two older sons definitely are and they approach the matter with the same attitude of gratitude and reverence that the Native Americans hold (and that was portrayed in the Avatar film).


I have taken on some rather useful feline characteristics, like not giving a f-uck about what most people do.

*grins over at you* Well put! And something we could merrily put above one of the infinite number of bars in this establishment as an inspirational sign.


By the way, we should all be thankful that the pub continues in the public purview.

I've not ever gotten a response from the :cow: about the potential stickiness of the Pub, but my psychic impression says "thanks for not sending us to the off topic forum"

Herbal tinctures, I always feels that it must be something special when I hear that word. When I used to have home grown herbs, like lemon grass, it was the first herb in the garden that I reached out to when I felt a cold coming on. I also like steeping ginger and lemon too to a pot. Do you work with hot and cold water for tinctures, Cerridwen? Is there a special process you use?

I was interested in the use of silver tea pots - briefly touched on in that video that Songs posted today about water.

By the way, I do like this meditation you do. It is imagery I can really relate to. THANK YOUx
15605

The tinctures I was talking about are made with 100 proof alcohol. I'm a whiskey girl myself, but vodka can also be used, just make sure it's 100 proof. That ratio of water to pure alcohol works best to draw out all of the "good stuff" from the herbs as well as properly preserving the tincture. It's a very simple procedure. I just fill a sterilized, glass canning jar 50/50 with the dried herbs and alcohol, then let it sit in a dark cupboard for at least six weeks. For the first week I make sure to gently shake it at least once every day, then after that, once a week or when ever I think about it. When I'm done infusing the alcohol, I strain it using cheesecloth and store it in a amber glass bottle with a glass dropper. Easy-peasy. My favorites for winter colds are echinacea root and elderberry. I do both of those by themselves. I also make sure the herbs are from a trusted organic supplier.

I do make lots herbal teas with hot water as well, but those are best used up within a day. Some roots and dried berries need to be gently simmered, while more fragile herbs and flowers only need very hot water poured over them.

Oils infusions are great for making salves with beeswax and I love my herbal infused, apple cider vinegar that I use on my hair to make it super shiny. I'm a bit of a self taught kitchen witch. :)

I'm glad you like the meditation. It seems to work well for me.

I finally finished the video that Songs posted. That was great stuff. Thank you for sharing.

[songsfortheotherkind]

I make something called Ormus. It's an alchemical thing, I'm not often inspired to do it and when I do, it takes me into my Otherkind nature in a big way. I don't make it for humans at all- the only human I've ever known who had any described it as the most confronting trip she'd ever taken and while she appreciated the experience she never wanted to do that again. I wasn't the daftie that gave it to her. I did yell at the daftie who did. I've never had enough Otherkind to make it for.

In the last week, the Ormus has been nudging me again and has now grown to an insistent chatter in my ear. I'm going to make a batch designed to trigger the latent evolution in me. I'm prepared to share it with anyone who wants some. Be aware, I'm tuning the seawater to the offworld place I jump to when I tune water, and I'm making this batch in conjunction with the Beings that I'm connected to there, so there's lots of albino skin energy going to go into it. All I can say is, the guy who taught me how to make Ormus could not handle my batches and I ended up having to put heavy energy modulating signals around them for him to even have them in his house. He reported that they gave him ubertrippy dreams, headaches and he started hearing things. I pointed out to him that my batches were absolutely not designed for humans and he developed a healthy appreciation for my Otherness. lol.

I'm sourcing the blue glass bottles that I like to use. If you ask me to personalise it I can do that *and* I get my information from a variety of sources, none of which are human, so don't blame me if you start sprouting pointy ears. *laughing*

I'm apparently making it in the next few weeks, but I have a batch already here that is ready to play with me some more. I'll see what it morphs into. It's a particularly trippy and deep batch- remember the photo I posted of Gaia/me with the mushroom hair and the white eyes? There's quite a bit of that in there....

[Cerridwen]

Hmmm... I've wanted to try Ormus for a while now, but I think yours might be a bit too much for this newbie to handle. *laughs*

[songsfortheotherkind]

Hmmm... I've wanted to try Ormus for a while now, but I think yours might be a bit too much for this newbie to handle. *laughs*

*grins, sideways wolfish eyes* I can tune it for you, and you can use it homeopathically- or I'll just send it to you and you can have it sitting in the space, doing its thing... but only do that if you're up for things transforming. I can't help it, everything I touch transforms one way or the other- part of being a walking Gate, I guess. :P

What did you say, Smurf? How dare- ... oh, sorry. 'Boredom' leads to trouble. Right. Gotcha.

I probably have nothing to offer in terms of medicinal substances and that sort of thing. When I've trashed my own system and let the virus wreak havoc with me however, a few things that help are mega dose B and C vitamins, aloe vera juice, Spirulina, huge amounts of leafy green vegetables raw (my favourite is rocket), wheat grass, and soaked hemp seeds. After a few days like that I feel so vibrantly full of chi that the virus has me trash myself again. I'm working on that.

Personally, I want to hear about people's energetic work too. I'm happy to describe my experience of the astral projection/lucid dream thing, and there are all sorts of energetic techniques involving visualisations I've found interesting. I'm sorry, I can't think of any right now ... those blue boobs are staring at me as I write.

By the way, I love Harrison Ford, Daniel Craig and Sam Rockwell. But now they owe me a couple of hours of my life back for 'Cowboys and Aliens'.

And Songsy ... that picture you posted yesterday of the alien, that says 'embrace the change' or something. That's a Skrull. Skrulls are aliens. Don't argue with me on this or I'll call the Avengers and warn them about you. I'd call the Fantastic Four, but Fox has messed them up and I'll have to wait til the rights revert to Marvel. I don't know what Reed Richards thinks of Smurfs, but he's not keen on Skrulls.

This is not a fluffy thread. It is the *only* place where sui generis is even discussed, let alone explored; it's the only thread where a discussion of transformational mindset is embraced and explored, where things can actually be truly spoken about without all the dissonance and crap that goes on out in the forum.

I don't want any fear porn in the form of 'Bill doesn't approve' or 'the mods are watching' going on in here. This is the sui generis thread and that's how it is, as far as I'm concerned- I am holding the space for transformation and I am extending Bill the integrity that if he has an issue with how things are going here, someone would at least PM me about it. Otherwise, this forum may just as well be another form of Cabal and that would be good to know.

I'm not giving any airplay to ridiculous forum fear porn. Sui generis is personal responsibility. It's also the only response to the laws and entanglements that the system has spread out. Either there is space here for this or there is not, and if that's the case then it will emerge as such. I personally have had nothing but pleasant and enjoyable interactions with the mods that I've encountered and who've dropped by, who all know what this place is about.

*swirls double lightsabers angrily* If individuals can't get their sh!t together in something as remote from physical reality as an internet space then they sure as crap aren't going to be able to get anything evolutionary going anywhere else.

Because not everyone wielding a lightsaber is dressed in black and built like Captain America- and neither do they need to be, because the force is cohesion which is the only thing that activates a lightsaber.

We cannot make the jump if we're dicking around with low vibration crap- the dicking around we do here is high vibration, it just takes a sui generis eye to get it. I've got a post to make about that now, after I've finished greeting someone enthusiastically. :D

[Cerridwen]

Hmmm... I've wanted to try Ormus for a while now, but I think yours might be a bit too much for this newbie to handle. *laughs*

*grins, sideways wolfish eyes* I can tune it for you, and you can use it homeopathically- or I'll just send it to you and you can have it sitting in the space, doing its thing... but only do that if you're up for things transforming. I can't help it, everything I touch transforms one way or the other- part of being a walking Gate, I guess. :P

*Laughs again* I'll think about it.

Thanks Calz, I will do a search for her info.

She would be a he ... not that it seems to matter at the Pub ... :dirol:

Ooops! Sorry Carmody, I was enjoying too many of my tinctures last night. :o

[songsfortheotherkind]

Ooops! Sorry Carmody, I was enjoying too many of my tinctures last night. :o

*grins at you over the glow of my still active lightsabers*

You're just so delicious when you blush.

[Borden]

Well I'm not built like Captain America ... but frankly he's a bit too bulgy. I do wear a lot of black. He should too, it's slimming. Still, he looks good in a flag, and to be fair not many people can pull that off. That was great, although those younglings were very slow. I would have had time to roll a cigarette, type a post here and tie my shoelaces while they were waving their sabres about at me. Still, they do show enthusiasm, so I wouldn't put holes in any of them. Probably. There can be only one, remember? Oh no ... hang on, I think I'm getting mixed up.

I agree about the dicking about. Emphatically. Let us apotheosize the art of dicking about at the highest vibration available to humanity and beyond. With cake and fine wine.

Sounds like a fine plan to me. Cheers!

[PurpleLama]

The fact is, allowing the fluffy threads, so to speak, to continue, is to keep the majority of the fluffy stuff in those threads. It's a good thing to allow such creative outlets, as it keeps down the off topic creativity elsewhere. Besides that, in such a venue we do have the better opportunity to aquaint ourselves with one another and build our own flavor of psychic groundcrew.

This is not a fluffy thread. It is the *only* place where sui generis is even discussed, let alone explored; it's the only thread where a discussion of transformational mindset is embraced and explored, where things can actually be truly spoken about without all the dissonance and crap that goes on out in the forum.

I don't want any fear porn in the form of 'Bill doesn't approve' or 'the mods are watching' going on in here. This is the sui generis thread and that's how it is, as far as I'm concerned- I am holding the space for transformation and I am extending Bill the integrity that if he has an issue with how things are going here, someone would at least PM me about it. Otherwise, this forum may just as well be another form of Cabal and that would be good to know.

I'm not giving any airplay to ridiculous forum fear porn. Sui generis is personal responsibility. It's also the only response to the laws and entanglements that the system has spread out. Either there is space here for this or there is not, and if that's the case then it will emerge as such. I personally have had nothing but pleasant and enjoyable interactions with the mods that I've encountered and who've dropped by, who all know what this place is about.

*swirls double lightsabers angrily* If individuals can't get their sh!t together in something as remote from physical reality as an internet space then they sure as crap aren't going to be able to get anything evolutionary going anywhere else.

Loosen up Songsy,

I'm replying to you before I reply to that other post, beloved- you, get anything on your coat?

Yes, because we also know just how interested Captain America would be in the opinions of mysogynistic old farts who don't know how to play with intelligent women-

Hi all. Stopping by for a cuppa since it's morning here.

Let the hijinks resume. :biggrin:

[Rogerc]

Antimysogynist old fart jousts with Antimysandrynist intelligent woman.

Careful Songsoftheotherkind this is bordering on a personal attack.

AND Antimysogynist I am not - I have been married to the same gorgeous woman for 45 years and I have four daughters whom I love dearly.

Being called an old fart does not worry me in the least, such comments I find puerile and childish

So, no, you fail to threaten me in any way whatsoever

As in all threads feel free to disregard me - not a problem

I reiterate - love and PEACE

*leans in peacefully, eyes glowing black*

Rogerc, until you have more of an understanding and comprehension of who I am, where I've come from and what I've been through to get here, I'll be asking you politely, just the once, to never, ever tell me to loosen up. Should you wish to behave like you know me when you actually really don't, I won't be inspired to engage with you in any kind of lightsaber engagements at all- I save those kinds of encounters for my lovers, the ones that I actually enjoy engaging with- I'll just ignore you. Utterly. So you can decide, it's entirely up to you: either pull your head in a bit with the idiot assumptions, including those about me with regards this establishment, and be bothered to actually get to know me and the other patrons here- have you actually noticed the dynamic around here in any way at all?- , or don't, and reap your own sui generis.

I am not butterflies and rainbows. If you find that too challenging, so be it. *shrugs* In here I'm surrounded by awesome males who hold their sui generis in really interesting and delicious ways, there's bound to be a few not so interesting come along.

[Borden]

The eyes have it.

But don't let her make you feel I'm disinclined towards anybody. Otherkind who quote me without permission may encounter Sith eyes, which are no joke, let me tell you. My mirror's terrified of me.

Roger, you are a crusty old so and so, and I like that. You're also a helicopter pilot apparently, which is pretty flash. Wanting to see me in tights is something I will have to figure out how to deal with ... but this Sue Generis woman Songsy keeps banging on about tells me I should let you get on with it. Fairy nuff.

We don't leave our sabres at the door here, because that's virus nonsense - it assumes we can't keep our sh1t together in a civilized environment ... of course we can! I'm fascinated to see how you and Songsy interact ... bearing in mind I am not Australian, and don't understand the male/female dynamic in that part of the world. I am sitting on a bar stool grinning, and chucking my de-activated sabre from hand to hand in a childlike, playful fashion. That faint bubbling glimmer you see is the Sith appreciation for anything that might kick off. I'm fascinated by that Sue broad ... but I don't date her. Not yet anyway.

Oh, and if I attempted to defend Songsy (pah, not in a Sith's nature) ... she would turn those eyes on me before you.

Barkeep! What's the hold-up? Things are getting good!

No, rogerc, it's not personal attack at all, it's boundary. You want to make suggestions regarding 'she who must be obeyed' and that I'm trying to modulate the thread in such a way as to impinge on the sui generis of others, then I will speak from the integrity of my sui generis Self, which I value above everything else. I've said before, if anyone wants to legitimately call me on any of my crap I will take it on and kick my own arse- impune sh!te to me and I'll definitely hand it back, without social nicety.

I love my Clan here. It's an intensely personal undertaking that goes on here. Don't let 'Pub' fool you- here in Australia I never go into them, they're full of virus.

[Rogerc]

This is so thick and fast I hardly have time to edit before another hits me in the back.

Your judgement of what is legitimate crap means that you are the only persona to judge whether you need a reprimand - ergo sum without blame

I apologise for "she who must be obeyed" as you did not see it as lighthearted. It comes From a brilliantly humorous UK TV show

I do however stand by my comments re the thread

I'm running out of PEACE's

Hey Borden seeing you in tights is really not my go. Is everyone devoid of humour here.

Re Pubs I spent two and a half years flying out of Aberdeen and the pubs are definitely not viral (apart from the public bars - Gi us a pint o' heavy Jemmy)

[Borden]

Right, I'm going to put my hand on the top of both of your heads and let you swing. The first one to hit me in the balls will learn what Sui bloody Generis is really all about.

(no sense of humour? The tights thing was me being funny! Goddammit, man! I know you're Australian, but it hasn't been long enough to breed subtlety out of your genes!)

We should each of us, if we truly wish to avoid moderation, attempt to do a few things, those being keeping the banter as friendly as possible, and also to limit somewhat our use of the f-bomb (of which I am guilty as well). I've got the vague, psychic impression that these are the things that will land the Pub into the Off Topic forum, or worse, get the thread shut down entirely. These things are addressed in the guidelines we all agreed to when we signed to, and we may be pushing the limits of our forum staff. I've had a very fun, very rich experience in this thread and this message comes from a sincere desire to see it continue, preferably within the General Discussion forum. We haven't been moderated upon that I'm aware of, and we should all endeavor to keep it that way. All my own opinion, of course.

[songsfortheotherkind]

So, no, you fail to threaten me in any way whatsoever

Not interested in any way at all in threat or any other virus laden rubbish. If you feel that my setting my boundaries was me attempting to threaten you, so be it. I am comfortable enough within my Self to get that I'm not going to get along with every individual who comes into the Pub- it's one of the reasons I created this place the way I have, with inbuilt flexibility for others to make of it what they will.



As in all threads feel free to disregard me - not a problem

*bows head, grinning slightly*

Let's just take it as a given, then, that we're different creatures. I have no problem with that at all: if this Pub is big enough for a nine foot gargoyle incubus, it's big enough for anyone.

I've got the vague, psychic impression that these are the things that will land the Pub into the Off Topic forum, or worse, get the thread shut down entirely.

We haven't been moderated upon that I'm aware of, and we should all endeavor to keep it that way. All my own opinion, of course.

I get this absolutely, which is why I have recognised that sometimes Sui Generis means 'agree to be different and leave it at that'. I freely admit that there are some things that just irritate the beejums out of me and apparently I need to figure out how to deal with that privately rather than openly, because it seems to be perceived as war when it's actually me figuring out how to be real, be my Self, keep my boundaries and not experience be treated like I'm a bourke by someone who doesn't actually know me.

I have mixed feelings about this. I actually wanted the Pub to be somewhere it would be possible to have at it without uncomfortability, where such things could be expressed and worked through in an Otherkind. I just experienced the distinct feeling that I actually *can't* do that, that I have to be human about it, because the mods might have a problem with it and we get into some kind of highschoolish trouble. I'm not saying you are suggesting this, I really do appreciate your points and it simply makes me wonder if eventually the Pub will need to find another universe- I want to be able to have at it without having to censor my Self and my exploration; I am not interested in the human level way of doing things, I want to be able to be raw, snotty, grotty, disheveled and blood soaked within my own Clan and still be known and accepted for my Self, even while I'm being gently asked would I like to have a bath?

:P So mmm. Thinking about this now.

Shiva Takes a Cow


Parvati, the consort of Shiva once got curious that among the countless bhaktas [devotees] of her lord, who was the most devoted. Upon being so questioned by her, Lord Shiva smiled and said that presently there were two who were on an almost equal level, one very rich dude and other a poor brahmin, and as it was due time to give them a visit, why not join him in the tour.

So both of them in a disguise of mendicants proceeded first to the rich guy. The merchant was a very devout bhakta of Shiva and his free time was spent in the beautiful Shiva temple in his courtyard, doing puja most of the time. The twosome happened to arrive at his gate just at the time of his special puja and called out for alms. The merchant was 'too busy', but in accordance to his standing instruction, the 'beggars' were given a couple of blankets and some food and then shooed away when they asked for the darshan of the benefactor, as he was busy appeasing Shiva. Parvati was not too happy, but Shiva "the giver beyond compare", simply blessed his devotee with a thousandfold increase in his wealth.

Now they proceeded to the other devotee, the poor brahmin. This brahmin was quite old and his wife had passed away, neither did he have any progeny. For his livelihood he just had an old cow whose milk he used to consume and sell the rest; thus just managing to scrape through. He was just biding his time till his death happily repeating Shiva's name. Upon the arrival of two, he fed them with what little he had, deciding to go hungry for that day. Shiva also gracefully accepted as alms, the only tattered blanket he had. The "mendicants" departed from the brahmin's door quite satisfied.

After covering some distance, Parvati was curious and asked the Lord, why did he not bless the poor brahmin. "Ahh, I just forgot my dear", replied Shiva, "May the brahmin's cow die".

*contemplates the view with a green smoothie in her hand*

It's cool how this fits into the Pub. :D I feel like having a Slartibartfast award winning coastlines moment, but I'm not going to, because Slartibartfast is an unattractive name. I like mine much better. :D

Ok, I've had four hours sleep and given my Self time to process some of the things that went on for me during the past 12 hours here at the Pub and here's what's going on in my mind:

you're all a bunch of beyotchz.

*pauses to grab and consider that thought*

Mmm noooooo, that seems to not actually be one of my thoughts- it's wearing baggy silk pants in a really hideous colour and keeps squeaking at me that I can't touch it, which obviously I can because I'm holding it between my finger and thumb- if it were one of mine it would look more punk than pomade, so- *flicks thought out the window*

*goes rummaging for one of my own thoughts*

Ah, here it is- I knew it was around somewhere...

I recognise that I fully relate to the Pub and the patrons here in a 'friendly sandbox of equal Beings' way. I've been honest about why I've created the Pub and what I want to do here- I extended an invitation to a particularly frenetic kind of slamdance in which nothing was taboo, everything was up for exploration in whatever way that came up, with the view to coalescing a particular kind of group of Beings, the kind that can go into the Matrix/virus and have a strong enough grasp of Self and sui generis that the virus can't use one another to be the attacker.

I was thinking about the Matrix movie and the crew of the Nebuchadnezzar- how diverse they were, yet how absolutely solid as a group when it came to being confident of one another when they'd go back into the Matrix. There's a knowness there, a solid platform from which all other actions spring; it's the baseline, meaning that there's no question that when they go back inside, one of them is suddenly going to start waving placards about some Matrix-created issue, demanding that the others 'do something about it!' and getting into heavy leaflet writing campaigns. Mmmm, nooooooo. Because it was absolutely understood that the Matrix is the Matrix, the 'real' world was something else, and staying out of virus driven delusion was a splendid idea if one wanted to get out of there alive. Neo, for instance, didn't stop to check his email account and ring his work to let them know he wasn't going to be in that day.

So that's what I had in mind- creating a space for reality and virus hackers. It's still my purpose and intention. To those who are interested in maintaining the purpose and intention, I'd like to do ask some questions within my own rambling. It seems that a certain concern is held with regards this thread being moved off the main forum area. I found this odd, because I rarely go into the main forum at all these days; if I do it's usually that I find something to come back here and thrash out with those that can actually get the sui generis way I view things, rather than sporking my Self in the eye.

I've had people PM about all sorts of things 'you can't say this or THAT here, blah blah blah' and I've been headtilty and slightly brow furrowed about it all. I freely admit when it comes to the matrix the virus has created, I'm an idiot- I have no ability to be graceful, smilingly hidden and somehow connected on the deep level I want to be. So, is what I'm watching emerge the need to go hidden again, just with a wider group of Beings in my space who know what's actually going on behind the scenes because they're part of my core? Is that what is emerging as being the next step, having some kind of Pub inner core where the interesting and uncensored things are discussed and the main area is designed for the playspace and interesting topics watered down so as not to trip any wires?

I'm asking because I don't naturally do that. It's a kind of litmus test I have. Last night someone pushed a boundary of mine and I responded to it in as pleasant yet strong a manner as I could, yet there was a background flurry of disapproval and questioning my sui generis integrity that frankly left me in a really sh!t and virus hammered place. I never said I wasn't vulnerable, I said I'd be honest about it to the best of my ability. This is me- if someone sh!ts me, depending on the nature of what's happened I'm going to say something: I may do that while holding grimly onto my Self in the middle of a tsunami level of virus pounding down on top of me, and I'll do it anyway. I'm not an expert by any means in dealing with the manifestations of the fear, when the fear is about letting my Self be known, and I wasn't joking when I posted those pictures of faceplanting, *and* I'll still keep getting back on my feet, resetting my broken nose, take a deep and shaky breath and get back on the bike. I'm a motorcycle rider, if I was afraid of this

http://motopreserve.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/crash-tech.jpg

then I wouldn't bother getting on a bike.

The thing is, individuals scare me more than anything else in the world, including the virus. That's why I joined the forum- I recognised that I was afraid and I wanted to move out of that space. I've been both astonished at the richness of Being that I've discovered and reminded that there are still behaviours and expressions of Self in others that I simply have no clue what to do with. That's what I want to work out here. I don't have an image to uphold, I am ok with being raw and stupid- it leads me to interesting places.

I personally don't care if this thread is moved anywhere. I have found information in some of the most bizarre and strange places- if the Pub is what someone will find useful, they'll find it. I'm more interested in keeping integrity and intention than winning a popularity contest or meeting the demands of others in terms of my behaviour and expression of Self. I'm done with that crap. Some people need their evolution in polite, bloodless, dainty doses...

http://a57.foxnews.com/img.foxnews.com/static/managed/img/Scitech/660/371/Jetman%20yves%20rossy.jpg

I prefer mine at light speed.

So personally I'd like to keep things as they are here and let the chips fall where they may. I want to be able to get in the face of those who are really p!ssing me off, because I don't actually go into those situations with my lightsabers blazing- it's the virus I save those for, not individuals. Some of my lovers can trigger me so badly that I physically feel like I'm committing seppeku by being in the space, and I still get the evolution in it and the amazing beauty in them- nothing is wasted, in my world, especially gut wrenching trigger. I could do with being showered in flower petals as well, *and* I figure that's a female thing *laughing wryly* which is why I refuse to be monogamous or straight.

I'm putting my perspective out there and letting the Pub know what I'm up for. This isn't just my space though, I'm open to the opinions of those others I happen to consider as part of my intimacy circle: if you don't think you're part of that, you're probably wrong.

Except for that one over there in the hideously colored baggy silk pants- definitely not part of the intimacy circle.

The Last Girl on Earth

1.

The last girl on Earth will not be who you think she is, who they say she is, though in any case, she will be you.

You are not who you think you are, nor am I. We are before thoughts, though what that is, who can say?

If you have to think about it – too late, it's already changed into something else. You can never catch up with it, grasp it, hold it, or pet and feed it, but all are welcome to try.

A song asks, "How can you hold on to a dream?"

This is a good question, though we all try again and again and again. Whatever is seen, felt, thought, or imagined is not so. Just don't be deceived!

Thought is a phantom, but it has a beginning and an end. If you're there at the beginning, at the origin and source of thinking, then you must be before thought, before phantoms.

Perhaps you yourself are a phantom, a passing thought. Think about it. There is no praise or blame when you're the last girl on Earth. Even some elegant litany of what you are not cannot begin to describe what you actually are.

If asked, "Host or guest?" I just nod, bemused. Since you're the last girl on Earth, the source of all thoughts must be you, yet you are not who she thinks she is, since she still suspects that she is other than herself, when all the while you've always been, and will always be, the very last girl on Earth.


2.

Today may just be the last day on Earth. If you are not here with us already, you soon enough will be.

We'll share a soup of the inexplicable, at the table of the irresistible.

Clouds and sun will intermingle, while the sunset breeze skimming above our heads will fill up with layers of colorful mist, just like she said it would.

Sitting with a world of feeling, we'll speak little, because this intensity is more magnificent than anything we could articulate.

The last girl on Earth is here. She always is, though if we should stop to ponder how or why, by then she’ll be miles away.

She herself says little, because everything worth saying has already been said.

She neither laughs nor grieves - just a silent friend when you would like one. Few hear the secrets hidden within her depths - who has ears for that music?

Perhaps there is one song we all hear. It is enough that there is such music, whether heard or unheard. It's a song of constant yearning, yearning for the last girl on Earth.

Anyone who feels the slightest separation from what they love understands the yearning. It is not complicated – it just burns. If peeled from its shell, our flame would astonish this sky tonight, the sky of our yearning.

There are innumerable ways to enjoy true union with the last girl on Earth - why stop at the obvious? Sometimes the cauldron of this world spills out in a bountiful garden of richly colored flowers. Gather a bouquet for her!

Later, we may wander down to a lovely pool in the stream. She'll skip behind us, playing Hide & Seek among the trees. Sometimes, just when we say, "Aha!" she'll be off and on her way again.

Funny Play! As we wade out into that cold clear pool, all our salt dissolves. When we're long gone, only one will remain -- the very last girl on Earth.

I say we keep going on exactly like we have been. Maybe I haven't been a member here on Avalon long enough, but I just don't see what the big deal is if the pub gets moved. If others think what we're discussing is frivolous, then that's their own perception. If a new person needs to find us, they will no matter where we go. :)

I think it was Bob that even brought up the idea of a group section here. Maybe that's where we could have the freedom to get down and dirty with the virus without offending the main public. I think it would be a shame if we had to close the door on new patrons though.

Well ... the mod team discussed the question of whether to move this thread to Off-Topic.

No move - this thread stays right here. :cantina:

Technically, depending on how you view the subject of this thread (which may depend on how high one's vibration level is ... I'm not sure there), this thread might belong more in the Off-Topic subforum rather than the General sub-forum. Two technical differences of the Off-Topic area - guests (non-members) cannot view it, and it does not show up on some of the "most recent posts" lists. This helps us keep more focus on the key subjects of this forum. We're not looking to become a general free-for-all, anything goes, site.

But pretty clearly many members on this forum have little tolerance for tyannical bovines, or tyrants of any other species, and quite possibly, some of the focus of this thread might well be a good match for the General focus of this forum.

And besides, my shelf holding "Least Popular Mods of the Week" awards is already sagging.

Carry on.

If songsfortheotherkind were to ask us to move her thread to Off-Topic, we'd happily do so (though we'd be surprised.)

I am sincerely glad that this has been dealt with out in the open so that the Pub can lurch forward in all it's slightly dubious and philosophical revelry. :D Now we just need some more secret Pub icons, handshakes and spiffy dance moves and we'll be well on our way to being the next Benevolent Overlords. Huzzah!!

Thanks for keeping the Patrons in the loop, Paul. :)

15629

In between, I always have a cup of tea to think about the entities who come together at the ´pub´ but more - self reflectively - I am focussing on me and considering the grand importance of my being here.

This salon is one of the most sophisticated on the Avalon Forum. It is not only a pleasure palace with sparkling conversation, outrageous wit and general, creative expression, it is where I come to really deep mine my soul, to find out how I can be more of myself, instead of capitulating to a living but dis eased and redundant matrix that I have always felt judged and controlled by. To turn around a long life of fitting in and always trying to show my performed self, rather than my own self. To keep the peace. To be liked, to be loved, to be accepted.

For what? My body goes into tension lock just thinking about it. I won´t fill in those details at the moment, because they are still in the act of becoming something much more wonderful. And that´s what I will eventually write about. Or express in a rainbow of ways.

For now, let it be known from this member, that my evolution is partly taking place here at the pub. I had a resistance at first, but I know from practice now, that resistance is actually the doorway to a gift. There is a deeper methodology at work here that is of service to my evolution, and I believe is helping to create a template for something much bigger that I hope will eventually improve communications on a global level.

It takes personal work to do this, and it is taking place in the here and now of this pub at the end of the universe.

For those who go to the pub, I believe that there is an understanding that the virus cannot survive for long, when it rises up. *Songs, I had my doubts at first, but real work is also being done here - and I think, by jove, I get it.* And I want Avalon´s moderators and other members to understand this, and look after this asset.

The loaded and snarly sniping - of the virus - that goes on in threads in the outer forum, intended to belittle and disempower, are not tolerated here. Hard nosed debate is not an option for the same reason. Fun, deep, caring, reflective dialogue is the order around here, and from what I have witnessed and experienced, boundaries are softened and a seamless vibe charges into some wonderful moments of co-creation.

For me, this is a place of change.

15630

Why does it work? I believe it is because of the environment that has been allowed to flourish, which is one of play. If you read widely about the benefits of play, then you would know that it is essential for creativity - and from creativity all else flows. As Purple Lama mentioned earlier, this creativity raises your performance and skills of engagement elsewhere on the forum. In the rest of life too, I should imagine.

So, no fluffy banality around here. Our sandpit is where seeds of an idea to embrace Sui Generis - that Songs has introduced - is dynamically growing. Sui Generis has become a work in progress and once held, I believe will become the golden key for real change on this planet. A lofty, ambitious idea? Hell yeah. Why else would I be here? It is for individual and collective potential to truly embody the ascension process. AND GET THERE AS SOON AS WE CAN. Collectively, this is a hot bed of wisdom. Love too.

And this is why I am still here. A loving, playful environment encourages me to want to stay and explore more. It is where open and honest learning takes place. At every moment, I think that we are attaining significant learning through our relations with each other. For the same, simple reason, un playful behaviour - full of defensiveness and ego mechanisms - have no place to go, otherwise, we are playing right back into the bowels of the matrix. We all know that, surely? So at this pub at the end of the universe, we are attending to the foundations.

Here, we find ourselves playfully and honestly dealing with rising questions, and empowered to move the boundaries - with rampant imagination - when we want to look at things in greater focus. To see what we want to understand and be surprised by what we discover. Ultimately, and most importantly, we are forming a language between ourselves of inclusiveness, celebration, care, passion, transparency, honesty, responsibility and accountability.

This is not just an experiment. It is a living place, an open, welcoming community that is setting a benchmark and breaking it - only because, this is what it will take for all of us - personally - to continue developing levels of self awareness and realize who we really are.

For me - from my perspective - the pub is an entrance and a place to free ourselves up. To become aware of the virus. To shake it off. To find our way to a real connection with each other, not one that is fraught with wars of ego, cultural and social divisions but one that transcends all this, that practices Sui Generis and eventually will encourage and facilitate the process towards Sui Generis in others. Be that online, face to face or out on the astral plane.

I believe this place, this pub that was opened by Songs, has promise.

If we can do it here, there has to be a butterfly effect elsewhere - and then, i think this human race may indeed have a better chance, sooner, to takes its place in the greater cosmos.

Coming to Avalon, I did not anticipate this, but this is where I find myself. The pub - for me - is also like a garage. It is where I can put myself in for a grease and oil change, give the windows a clean, change over the muffler, if its back firing too much, and check on my electrics to ensure that I am sparking and have a good, clean feedback system for the long haul on my onward journey.

Do we want more people to jump into this sandpit? Well I am thinking: go for it. Just understand that this is a pub lic place and evolution has many faces. Nose bleeds are inevitable if you want to bring the virus in with you. Conversely, as Songs implied earlier, it is also not a place to just service '' people who need their evolution in polite, bloodless, dainty doses …''

I just admire and dearly appreciate you all.

The loaded and snarly sniping - of the virus - that goes on in threads in the outer forum, intended to belittle and disempower, are not tolerated here. Hard nosed debate is not an option for the same reason. Fun, deep, caring, reflective dialogue is the order around here, and from what I have witnessed and experienced, boundaries are softened and a seamless vibe charges into some wonderful moments of co-creation.

For me, this is a place of change.

Why does it work? I believe it is because of the environment that has been allowed to flourish, which is one of play. If you read widely about the benefits of play, then you would know that it is essential for creativity - and from creativity all else flows. As Purple Lama mentioned earlier, this creativity raises your performance and skills of engagement elsewhere on the forum. In the rest of life too, I should imagine.

So, no fluffy banality around here. Our sandpit is where seeds of an idea to embrace Sui Generis - that Songs has introduced - is dynamically growing. Sui Generis has become a work in progress and once held, I believe will become the golden key for real change on this planet. A lofty, ambitious idea? Hell yeah. Why else would I be here? It is for individual and collective potential to truly embody the ascension process. AND GET THERE AS SOON AS WE CAN. Collectively, this is a hot bed of wisdom. Love too.

And this is why I am still here. A loving, playful environment encourages me to want to stay and explore more. It is where open and honest learning takes place. At every moment, I think that we are attaining significant learning through our relations with each other. For the same, simple reason, un playful behaviour - full of defensiveness and ego mechanisms - have no place to go, otherwise, we are playing right back into the bowels of the matrix. We all know that, surely? So at this pub at the end of the universe, we are attending to the foundations.

Here, we find ourselves playfully and honestly dealing with rising questions, and empowered to move the boundaries - with rampant imagination - when we want to look at things in greater focus. To see what we want to understand and be surprised by what we discover. Ultimately, and most importantly, we are forming a language between ourselves of inclusiveness, celebration, care, passion, transparency, honesty, responsibility and accountability.

This is not just an experiment. It is a living place, an open, welcoming community that is setting a benchmark and breaking it - only because, this is what it will take for all of us - personally - to continue developing levels of self awareness and realize who we really are.

For me - from my perspective - the pub is an entrance and a place to free ourselves up. To become aware of the virus. To shake it off. To find our way to a real connection with each other, not one that is fraught with wars of ego, cultural and social divisions but one that transcends all this, that practices Sui Generis and eventually will encourage and facilitate the process towards Sui Generis in others. Be that online, face to face or out on the astral plane.

I believe this place, this pub that was opened by Songs, has promise.

If we can do it here, there has to be a butterfly effect elsewhere - and then, i think this human race may indeed have a better chance, sooner, to takes its place in the greater cosmos.

Coming to Avalon, I did not anticipate this, but this is where I find myself. The pub - for me - is also like a garage. It is where I can put myself in for a grease and oil change, give the windows a clean, change over the muffler, if its back firing too much, and check on my electrics to ensure that I am sparking and have a good, clean feedback system for the long haul on my onward journey.

Do we want more people to jump into this sandpit? Well I am thinking: go for it. Just understand that this is a pub lic place and evolution has many faces. Nose bleeds are inevitable if you want to bring the virus in with you. Conversely, as Songs implied earlier, it is also not a place to just service '' people who need their evolution in polite, bloodless, dainty doses …''

I just admire and dearly appreciate you all.

Let's take a closer look at "the virus".

A myth has been circulating for many centuries now that humanity is diseased, that all beings are suffering from what can be called "sin", "maya", "ego", "suffering", "separated individuality", "illusion", "delusion", or "confusion". You are supposed to accept this diagnosis, realize how diseased you are, and submit yourself to the local religious hospital, where a father or mother doctor will confirm your disease and require you to submit for the rest of your life to various regimes for your own healing and ultimate cure. Such is the basic proposition of traditional religion, and it begins with the diagnosis of the dreaded disease.

Tradition has it that by birth, by virtue of their very existence, human beings are all, even now, diseased, sinful, separated from the Great One. What a horror! Yes! What an obscenity has been laid upon people through the traditions of society, which, merely because of the impulse to survive as the body¬mind, have for centuries required human beings to invest themselves with the belief in this disease and to suppress their own life¬motion, which comes only from the Great One, in order to fulfill the presumed needs of this chaotic society.

Someone occasionally appears to tell you, standing in the midst of the priests of this horror, that not even one of you is suffering from this disease. It is an imaginary disease, a terrible disease but altogether imaginary. No one has ever actually had this disease. Not one single being has ever had the Dreaded Gom¬Boo. It has never happened! It does not exist!

What is the Truth? You are Happy. You live in God. The Great One is your Very Being. You inhere in the Love-Blissful, Forceful Being of the Starry God, the Mystery, the Person of Love. This is your Situation and your Destiny. And this is the message to you: There is no disease. There is nothing to cure. You are not a patient and you are not parented. You are not a child. No dreadful destiny lies before you. There is nothing whatsoever to cure.

However, in spite of these truths, you act like a patient or a diseased person, and you seem to deny or doubt the Very Condition of your existence. Therefore, Someone must remind you of It. Someone must call you to observe yourself and to see how the conception of this disease arises. Where does it come from? How do you contract this imaginary disease and become involved in seeking its imaginary cure? Someone calls you to observe yourself, and you will see--well, you're grabbing your ass! You're pinching your belly. You're ripping your hairs out. You're biting your tongue. You're pulling out your teeth. You're sticking your fingers in your eyes. You're causing yourself great pain because of your motive to be independent.

You will never be independent. There is not even a molecule of wood in this wall that is independent. Nothing and no one is independent. Everyone inheres in the Great One, the Magnificent Lord, the Marvelous Starry Person, the Delight of Being Itself. Everyone lives in That. That is your Situation now. This moment is the moment of Happiness, as is every future moment, every moment after death, beyond this world and other worlds, lower worlds, higher worlds, after-worlds, no worlds. It is all the moment of infinite Delight, unless you become egoically self¬conscious and withdraw from your relations and contract upon your Happiness and forget It.

This is the message to you, then: There is no disease except the one you fabricate and reinforce through all the propagandas of this horrible world of egos. Understand this and instantly be free of it in every moment. Be free of this imaginary concoction of suffering. There is no such thing! The Great One has magnified Itself in the form of sexual beings, human beings, sexless beings, earth-world, form and fruit and wood and wall and space and star and sky and cloud and tree and life and death. The same Great One takes all these forms, completely Indifferent, completely Free, completely Happy in all these excesses. This is all the Great One. The Great One creates nothing. The Great One Is everything. What a Paradox! What a Mystery!

music to soothe, stir and relink the mind/heart...
for all (interdependent) energetic beings who
wander in and through this pub of
growth, exploration, and evolution.

in the midst of a formless paradox
we are... in each moment le grande mystere plays on.
it is time to put everything on the altar,
or tear it apart altogether.
and begin anew. i am listening to a concert of
destruction and creation in stereo.
we are hearing new(old) voices.

hey guys, been going thru numerous personal difficulties lately, the least of which is a crashed computer. i'm writing this post from the good 'ol public library...

all i can really say is this:
utEEe97Ir4o

anybody that follows my posts even casually knows i'm not prone to cryptic remarks -- i'm quite direct -- but i'd rather not launch into all my sh!t cuz it'll only upset me (and bore you). i'm happy to report, however, that things are improving.

looking forward to frequenting this pub again. got a new computer on the way, so i'll be returning soon. for those that regard this as good news, great. for those that don't, go f#ck yourself:)

p.s. i can vouch for the:cow:. he's a good dude.

Glad you're back, Chinaski, you were missed.

Glad things are improving too ... here, have some positive vibes, love, light and so forth. Count me among those who don't have to go f*ck themselves.

And yes, several people I trust tell me he is a good dude. I never said he wasn't.


thanks for the greeting Dr Bordenstein. and for the 'love' and the 'light' -- but especially for the 'so forth';)

i'm glad you won't be f#cking yourself. but hypothetically, if you did f#ck yourself, would you be wearing a black condom? does your sui generis even include the use of condoms? mine does(sometimes) does your sui generis endorse f#cking yourself, if indeed that was possible? mine might. (anotherbob is posting a really strange picture at the moment ha ha)

regarding Paul, i know that you and the rest of the pubbers (not 'pubers' Calz he he) do not think he's a bad dude, it's just that i've seen member/mod wars break out as the result of even the subtlest of verbal kindling, and i'd hate to see it happen here. perhaps i was just "balancing the energy" or "offering my 2 cents" or (fill in another really bad cliche here)

i was just explaining to Songs that i'd hoped to participate in the pub from library headquarters while i wait for my computer to arrive, but the chances are dimming. i have an obese man breathing down my neck waiting for use of this computer (almost literally) and a toothless homeless lady guffawing like a madman to my right. to my left is a woman with her little girl, who has been sobbing/screaming alternately for the last 45mins or so. i'm trying to sympathize, but have been unsuccessful thus far. i wanna kill the kid. none of this would be so bad actually, but i'm in the "quiet" area, and actually waited an hr to get a computer in the "quiet area"

btw , some of the posts here are really fantastic. i've spent the last hr or so catching up, and i'm really blown away by the sheer quality. pubbers are really steppin up their game here lately, that's for sure. purplelama made an excellent point: this thread can be an outlet for creative frivolity, as opposed to a distraction to the rest of the forum(only he said it a lot better than that:))

[PurpleLama]

I've been quiet since yesterday morning due to some rather upsetting developments in my personal experience that I'm not remotely prepared to go into. I do want to say a special thanks to :cow: and the rest of the mods, for letting the Pub roll on in the General Forum. Also for the subtle acknowledgement that there may be a real purpose being served, here. So, thanks. I also want to say that our Pub patrons behavior was a model for how evolved individuals can handle adversity, something that the forum as a whole usually does not demonstrate. I wasn't a big deal, but it was, and we kept it civil and most importantly, in the Pub. All in all, I'm glad with the way things played out. We really are evolving 'round here, and it's great.

i know i'm a little late to the table on this one, but the 'stash is killer Lama.

i tried to grow one not too long ago (with tongue half in cheek) but i have too much of a babyface to really make it work. i looked more like a prepubescent kid growing facial hair for the first time -- my friend Will said i looked like magnum p.i. without the masculinity, looks, ruggedness, swagger, toughness, manliness, sexiness.....and a few more i can't think of at the moment.
