When you leave a towel even on a chair doesnt it dry out? How fast is about temperature difference (air-towel-body/chair) and also moisture in the air. In the case you left in on your body, the body could potentially trap some additional moisture. A mechanism for increasing body temperature being self meditation?- Why not, still 'fever' is no miracle. Solving math problems is a form of meditation and it makes a lot of people feel sort of sick, coincidence? :)

[happyidiottalk]

Meanwhile in the western world scientists cured all sorts of bacterial diseases and eradicated polio and smallpox ect.

[mathman43]

@happyidiottalk Yes, but we in the west are constantly relying on scientists to find solutions for us. Over 60% of Americans are fat, and over 30% are obese. Relying on science is making us soft. Think about how many people have allergies and how many people are taking prescription drugs. What we're doing is not working.

[happyidiottalk]

@mathman43 Actually science does work. Its the reason we're all surviving our births and living to a ripe old age. Its the reason we're having this conversation right now.

Where would you like to get your solutions from if not from science? Are you advocating a return to reading tea leaves and dancing naked around camp fires? Think about what you're saying critically, because your position is absurd! Go compare your life to someone from the prescientific era and find some perspective.

[happyidiottalk]

@mathman43 And if this soft life isn't making you happy, then there is a really nice solution. Go find some african family living in a hovel in some impoverished African country and swop with them. You get to rid yourself of this soft life you seem to despise, and they get to instantly relief from the povety and misery of their 'hard' life. Everyones happy! But you wont will you, because you're a ignorant hypocrite who just wants to moan about the one thing that makes your life better - science

[mathman43]

@happyidiottalk You remind me of the fat people in "Wall-e." I think you have NDD(Nature deficit disorder). Yes, I'm using the internet, but I can walk away from it. Also, my career isn't linked to it. Every one of man's victories over nature is essentially a victory of a few people over the masses(C.S. Lewis' Abolition of Man"). People who are sold out to the new way, like yourself couldn't survive a day in the wild. I've done 8 Ironmans and wouldn't have a problem.

[happyidiottalk]

@mathman43 I see, you want everyone to return to nature so you can be ironman among the fatties. You realise of course that if we all did that billions would die. Nature on its own wouldn't be able to support us all. So you going to give up your cushy soft lifestyle and go move to Africa to live it up the hard way?

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk Thats actually my plan, moving to Africa & living more natural, abandoning my current American life....of course I realize that this lifestyle is not accepted by everyone & is not for everyone....but it does benefit

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah "but it does benefit" Interesting. How do you see it benefiting anyone? Quality of life is improving everywhere in the first world. The fact you have a choice to go and live in Africa is proof of that. There aren't many in Africa that could leave and take your place. So you could argue that you are more needed in the modern. Advances we (first world countries) make are drip fed to less developed nations. If we all left for Africa, who would be developing anything?

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk People such as the natives of Africa have little knowledge of growing their own food, that doesnt take much money, only knowledge, & I would be more than happy in doing my part to help out with that...but understand, I dont have alot of money, I'm only 18 working at mc donalds.

and as I said before, THIS IS NOT FOR EVERYONE...so dont even mention "if we all left" because its not ment to be.

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah If your intent on doing this, helping the poor in Africa, then might I suggest you sign up with an aid organisation that knows what its doing. No offence but what do you know about growing food in an impoverished country, you might unintentionally do more harm than good. And if you do this, it'll look good on your CV if you change your mind and return to your home country.

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk You are the manifestation of Satan himself, a victim to your own ego, you are a big problem with humanity today, always looking for a reason why somthing cannot be done when in reality, you are simply too comfortable with you own life to make a change regardless to whom it may effect, you know nothing about me so what makes you assume that I am not capable of making a difference in Africa rather thats my goal or not (which technically it isnt my goal.)

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah LOL, I'm satan himself. Are you serious? Are you going to cast a spell on me next or throw holy water over me... perhaps hold a cross to my face and babble on about god? Seriously how could you write something so retarded and be serious about it? Its embarrassing in this day and age.

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk I wasnt speaking of a fictitious character, I was speaking of your own Ego. (I guess that would be the modern way of putting it)

regardless to rather you accept it or not, I can see it in you, the very fact that you produce nothing but negative energy to a positive idea shows your ignorance.

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah Please explain what this negative energy is? And you should hold a mirror to yourself. I suggested you join a proper well organised aid agency (which is a good and positive idea), and you come at me with all sorts of diatribe. You are guilty of the very thing you accuse me of.

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk sooo, I'm guilty for choosing to change my lifestyle for my own concern?? ooookay, and do you really not know what negative energy is??

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah No you're a hypocrite. You accuse me (someone who tried to advise and help you) of being something you yourself display signs of being.

There is no such thing as negative energy, at least not in the way you think it is. I asked you what it is so I could have a giggle at your response. Why dont you explain to me what you think it is. Then again dont bother, I'm not really interested in anything you have to say, I clearly cant learn anything worth knowing from pond life.

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk sooo, I'm "negative" because I make a decision to change my life for the better of myself?? OOOKAY, THT MAKES SENSE.

dont bother commenting back, this convo is a waste of time, you're clearly someone who looks for disagreement.

[ZaydelZemirah]

@happyidiottalk lolz & another thing, I find it funny that you are so ignorant to a spiritual mentality, yet you are on a video that talks about MEDITATION.

[happyidiottalk]

@ZaydelZemirah How ironic of you.

[Frozeal]

Om Ah Hung... Om Ah Hung... Om Ah Hung...

[dalesalsa]

And as am having this new experience thru meditation then I hear my mother call me! She is screaming for me to get down to the kitchen at once. So I think it is something important and immediately stand up without properly breaking off the meditation. Big Mistake!

I just stood up abruptly broke my breathing flow and the energy just went EVERYWHERE!

[Frozeal]

It's not that "simply" to feel the energy or to "feel the chakras"... Really. Probably it's psycological what you are feeling because it's waaaaaay more complex.

[dalesalsa]

What? I don't understand what you are saying? are you saying that I was lying? or wrong in my explanation.

Because for anyone that has meditated for a long time knows what: "feeling my chakras" means. I don't need any further elaboration or details on what I mean by that.

Also I would really like all you psycology students to do intense and dedicated meditation and spiritual practice BEFORE you theorize on the subject.

I constantly have psycology students giving me there "theories".

[dalesalsa]

But those same students have no "life experience" of what they are talking about: in other words meditation.

Meditation and spiritual practice must be lived not read about in a book. Once you have meditation experiences you know for a fact it is not simply "psycological". Although alot of human life and experience IS basically psycological: values, believes, filters create your reality and your perception of it and your reactions to it.

[dalesalsa]

I never had anyone explain to me anything on meditation. I basically found it out in a process of self-discovery and inner-exploration.

I became aware of my chakras when I was around 17 years old - Key words: became aware. I became aware of them. I started to feel them in every day normal life - but I didn't know what they were and I wasn't going to tell anyone and seem "crazy".

[dalesalsa]

It wasn't until college that I saw a book on buddhism and saw a drawing of a man sitting in za-zen meditation and the diagrams of the chakras going up the center of his body. It was right then and there that I knew that it was talking about the chakras and that I wasn't alone. I didn't even know they were called CHAKRAS!! JAJA I just knew them as energy centers I felt in meditation.

[Frozeal]

Uhm... I think you are exagerating... I'm not a Psychology student, i'm just an skeptical. And dont assume that I don't practice... urmmm I practice Vajrayana in the NyngmaKagyu tradition...

[barnzy2302]

i think you may be jealous of what the other person experiences. Ive found some people are just naturally more talented for creating, shifting and absorbing energy. If you spend time with a person who you might say is a 'master' this can improve your energy channels.

[chrisdotwynn]

lol

[Physics4FutureTeslas]

I don't want to rub off my own experiences and belief systems, but "evil" spiritual beings that have control of your untrained psyche-unconscious mind tend to do anything to break your concentration and halt-stagnate-vexate your spiritual evolution per se, I tend to get poltergeist like things happening..knocks or things falling whenever i start to get into deep trances, and or something injecting thoughts which break my concentration..food for thought

[agormanvideos]

@Physics4FutureTeslas Try this; before meditating ask archangel Michael for protection, 3 times and repeat "I am light" 9 times. I'm NOT kidding.

[rahungry]

@Physics4FutureTeslas Geroge Kavassilas says that it happends when other beings feel jealous towards you. Because they understand what is happening to you. You are brave, they are not. : D

[dalesalsa]

Then my body heated up extraordinarily and I even began to sweat. Fist some hints of perspiration on my arms, body and legs and then more sweat and my body kept getting hotter and hotter. This was all new to me and wonderful and I "watched it all" with a detached curiosity. As I got hotter and hotter I was wondering: Why wasn't I getting a fever or light headed and any of the other symptoms of high body temperature.

[dalesalsa]

I've done this meditation. I was meditating one day and I was feeling my chakras really good that day. Then the energy flow changed alittle bit -- it welled up in my chest chakra and then the energy flow erupted into a white flame (in my mind's eye of course). But I could see and feel the white flame flickering thru my chest and I was so sure of it I even opened my eyes to see if I could see it with my eyes! jaja
