Attachment 12457

Nice ... got the Gandalf "thou shall not pass" look going on

I would like to nominate attachment 12457 for permanent smiley status. Just so we can say "Thou shall not pass" and post that bad boy. I know some tolkein fans who would really appreciate that!

You can right click it and save it to your computer and use it as an attachment. I love the smiley status thing, but the mods are not animated gif friendly. It is apparently work and might take away from them keeping us safe from nuggetry.

Meanwhile ... in a thread far far away ...

Some were trying to coax modwiz into having a puppy (to keep him company through 3 days of darkenss etc).

What do the villagers think of my idea?


Attachment 12470

I think you would look lovely as a companion to that dog. AS A DOG! Ixnay on ogsday.

I am also observing that discussing stealth mode has led to more members to utilize this patricular setting.

Yes, it seems to be the in thing, as well as posting while naked.

Not only does that dog look 'abused'. Look at the carved pumpkin beside/behind him/her. It looks like a punched out face. There are undercurrents of suppressed frustration in this picture.

I do have a blue hat somewhere. I do have a picture of it too. I will find it and post it. It is my Disney wiz look.

Thing about going stealth is the jig is up when they "come out" to post.

Kinda like the Klingon Bird of Prey needs to decloak to fire it's weapons (or did I just make that up?).

Cloaked vessels must decloak to fire weapons. There were a few special models that could fire while cloaked. Roddenberry's black projects.

Here and now I'm at home in beautiful SUNNY Dublin listening to James Brown and I feel like dancing.

If you can listen to James Brown and not feel like dancing you died and don't know it yet.

Here and now...I'm thinking...




The energy travels like a spark on a beach of gunpowder

Who is Me? Is Me the ego? Is Me the Mini-Me? Is Me the Whole? Is the process of wanting occurring for the ego...the Mini-Me...the Whole? Not all dreamers travel the same dreams, so is dreaming the little voice? Do we, whichever we, bring all potential? Or do we eaches bring a specific potential?

Much Love,

Now, that is, a metaphor.

Who is me? Me is Soul, which is omnipresent in every possible place and time that can be imagined. Is that the proper focus once you know that?

My answer is that the All that we are has made an uncountable number of choices, because choice is power. The All has chosen to be a star, ant, you, me, a dog, an ocean, etc. It is interesting to watch ourselves on a video, is it not? Different perspective than being in the body. All of this leads to the answer that I will offer to your question to, who is me? If we are All then focusing on the me that the All chose to manifest as is where the point of power and greatest validity lie in. Working with the frailties and moral questions of being human is quite a task to pull of with some grace and elegance, all while being in your power. The knowledge of our greater being allows us to lead life with dignity, rather than clawing and clinging to it like it is the only existence we will ever know. Explore the many ways the awesome power and beauty of the cosmos can be expressed through your current form, in your current life situation. Allow the greater knowledge of our timelessness and being a part of all things be the bedrock and springboard for the seemingly tiny and insignificant collection of protoplasm and bones held together in a tunic of skin, to vault ourselves into significance and meaning by experiencing the richness of emotional being through compassion in action and gratitude of the Creation.

Just some thoughts about who we are.

Here's something I just flat-out don't get. My mind seems to process things that are logical, a sequence or an order of things. My Mini-Me or Whole seems to know things that my mind may not be able to grasp. But then, apparently, my mind has to go back and search for the logical, or the sequence and order, or what I know so that it can catch up. Can't I just fast forward this whole mind thing? People use tools to get where they are going...meditation, travels, non-3d experiences. But I don't have any of those...how is it I am able to know things that I have not understood and set out on a path to accomplish? That's bass-ackwards. And then, after that one, if I know, then why is it so difficult to learn? That just slows down the knowing because I have to catch up before I can know more. Does this crap make any sense?

Meeradas, that video is totally freaky. In a good way, of course...

That part is 100% mind-f*ck. Sequence is incon-sequential. It is how the ego works and is limiting. Microscopes and telescopes are great tools but suck for seeing the wholistic view of things. Trying to keep a record, in time or sequence, of how things come to be is a sure to lose the way or thread you are following. The minutiae is a distraction, unless the minutiae is what you seek.

Aha...going anywhere is leaving the mind behind, isn't it? So...I'm holding on to my mind. Hmmmmm....

well...except for when I dream....unless that is not any type of travel and is only another, deeper layer of mind processing 3d crud...

As I follow you, 1, there seems to be a tendency to slice and dice concepts. This is the ego at work, Freudian analysis at work. He came from the biological sciences and approached the mind like a frog on the dissecting table. His analysis could pull out each part and explain it s function, like a kidney or calf muscle. What his analysis could not do was put the parts back, all cleaned up, tickle the frog on the tush and send it back to productively eating mosquitoes in a pond. There is value in knowing parts and their functions but it is a process to be used very judiciously and only when a better option does not present itself. When it comes to our psyches, it would appear that the better options are available in most simulations.

I should take a breather. I have had entirely too much to say and to one person as well. My apologies if it has been overbearing.

Yes. I agree. Some whimsical dogs truly enjoy wearing hats, but that dear one looks as if he is upset about losing his dignity and being made to feel foolish.

My horrorscope for today said, the universe may give you a get out jail free card -LOL

Ate at a Chinese restaurant -my fortune cookie said, an aura of glamour and mystery surrounds your events this week.

As I "remember" a few years back, a dragon made itself known to me, I was a little taken aback by it, (dragons are strong, mysterious & powerful creatures) it was white/silver with a strange silver glow to it and didn't feel malevolent to me -I just accepted it and went on with my life.... back to remembering. The dreams I have been having about surge protectors.... and everyone's take on dreams in the last few pages and the reference to middle earth.... prompted me into remembering..... yes there is a lot going on in the middle earth right now -I keep experiencing and seeing several energies and entities clashing.

Modwiz, I do not see it as saying too much. I see the compassionate, intelligent, clear thinking humanitarian Aquarius coming out -appreciate it very much. Good to see you on fire.


Love

Nora

here and now, I remember it ..... mid eighties, I wrote an article KEN RUSELL STARTS THE SHOOTING CROWLEY.All invented. I send it to a friend ... and she gave it to a journalist.
Two weeks later, I received a phone call Daniel, look at the newspaper

I read in the newspaper Ken Russell starts the biography of Crowley.
My article has been leaked, I thought. Wow!
I wrote to the author of the news. He replied me, I have invented it, the newspaper is also for this. ha, ha

We both have the same idea.

Enrique Vila Matas was the journalist http://www.enriquevilamatas.com/autobiografia.html

It was all a coincidence.


Later, i have several nightmares with this guy, Aleister. The stars help me in those dreams. Like in Close Encounters of the third Kind.... the stars changed the positions, moving....
Also i dreamed with the opening credits of CROWLEY. It was like a Walt Disney opening. Very Sharp letters, very soft colors.

"Making discoveries

This is an excellent day for engaging in new activities and for making discoveries
about yourself and the world around you. Your life now has an exciting quality
that is not always present. Take advantage of this excitement to learn
about yourself in ways that are not usually possible. Your heightened perception
of your world will help you make changes with a complete understanding
of how the various parts of your life are interrelated.
This is a good influence for studying any discipline that can reveal new
and stimulating aspects of the universe. It favors the study of science,
technical disciplines, astrology or other branches of the occult.
You want to broaden your understanding, and the more exciting your study,
the more actively you will pursue it."

Had quite an interesting vision/higher torsion dream that awoke me with a revelation of a prior happening on that Indian hill showing me/we have the key...intense, kind of a rock 'em sock em 2 in 1 jolt. Happened that few weeks in 1/2007 when I was vibrating sky-high.
From the 'key' delivery without conclusion 2 days prior to the jolt I had loved ones and happenings swimming around in my brain as I was attempting to put them in sequential order as to how to cleanse and heal those matters and make them right to the rhythm of my 'correction' of alignment of my doings while stepping into a higher methodology...In that conclusion vision dream I was putting things in order alphabetically, chronologically, systematically, upside down, rightside up, backwards, forwards, hair color, eye color, first names, last names, severity of my personal infraction, degree of pain caused, degree of pain felt, whose on first, whats on second...geeesshhhh...and as the dream concluded my head was literraly/physically thrashed back and forth back and forth on the pillow for quite a bit of rock and rolling until...untill I woke up in an alarming jolt to sit up position in the bed and..and ok, ok,ok I get it...I get it...and it came down to the simple line delivery "Unconditional Love with Wisdom"...You don't need no order you banana bone just go live it and write the script and conclude all this out there in real time in real life(another vision conclusion)...just do it, ya know...wwwild and wonderful man.
And that's it..THAT'S IT..."Listen and Live It"...all else will simply fall in place in whatever synchronistic manner need BE for fruition : )
WoooHooooooo!!!

Thanks Viral.

I just love taking those occasional trips through the Universe. Puts things back into perspective and reminds us of the overwhelming immensity of it all. Great inspiration and reminder of so many untold mysteries.

modwiz on a roll indeed.

5 (count 'em) 5 of these little guys in one post???

Either some serious machine gun posting or else showing off his ability to operate outside of time as we understand it.

Special showing ... front row seats for the village. Something fun from Michael Tellinger (distributed by Gilliland). Short and sweet.

Posted by Calz_Avaretard (here)
Michael Tellinger shows off what could One of the best pieces of evidence that there were giants on Earth a long, long time ago. Geologists have marvelled at this giant foot print in rough granite, about 4 feet long. It is located in South Africa, near the town of Mpaluzi, close to the Swaziland border. It is estimated to be between 200 million and 3 Billion years old because of our current understanding of the formation of granites in Earth's history.

Wow, I wish I had had such an esteemed group leading me through the morass of conflicting inputs during my initial forray into these subjects of self discovery and improvement.
1, you are really fortunate, and I know you appreciate it.

When I could finally not take the frustration of trying to making sense of the personal transformation on my own, I was lead to an ACIM study group. I would spend the next year with them (2005). There I met many wonderful people. The leader of the group, and his wife, were incredibly gifted individuals. I went to a few weekend seminars and then took their first year Practitioner's course. They called their workshops and methods a transpersonal experiential philosophy.
It is there that I met Stan Endersby. I only took the first year of the course, Stan completed all three years. And I know a handful of others who completed the course as well. He had an uphill battle to be recognized and compensated for his contribution to Canada's music scene. When he called me last week, he had finally gotten that recognition, not only in the documentary but in the hall of fame somewhere, can't remember. His residuals (payments for recordings and re-releases and such) were ironed out a bit of a while back now. And the other more famous performers from his era are now calling him for guest appearances on their tours, which they always did do - but now he gets paid for it as well, it's not just a favor for a fellow musician. Stan is an amazing man, larger than life, very powerful, extremely talented - and he's finally coming into his own. Well done Stan! I love you, man.

On another note, I must say, if it weren't for this thread, here and now, I do not think I would still be on this site. Most of the other threads are so sappy, so antagonistic, so controversial, so unbelievable, so fringe as to be an insult to the word trivial. Rarely something to comment on, unless one of you guys have been there before me, that is. Then there is at least a sane voice to counter or add to. Not that there aren't some amazing people elsewhere on the forum, of course. It's just that I'm done with speculations and grasping at straws - and that's what most of the threads seems to do. Not for me, thanks. What is, is. And what will be, will be. That's good enough for me. No fear, no regrets. So bring it on!

Landed my first job of the year (one week project, knob and tube rewire). Off to work.

Love to all,
Ernie
