When was the video made? The apartment looks slightly different now, I was just visited there today:)

@DustOnTheRoad That one pearl of wisdom was a very very very old pearl, Dust. It was not original. Such a belief can be found woven into many many cultures. Even Bob Monroe, author of 3 infamous out-of-body books, had an encounter with The Mother Earth (which is a belief I have always held). My point is that Castaneda plagarized everything. He stole and claimed it was all true. When someone lies like that I would be an ass to continue to believe ANYTHING he or she claimed as real. Forget it.

@Boris82much  Didn't Castaneda talk about Genaro swimming on the earth, expressing his love for the very thing that gives him life, comforted him when he was sad, lonely, lost etc.? What can be wrong with that? He stated that the problem with most men is that they are oriented against the earth, the very thing that can bring them peace. No fraud or charlatan can come up with that. To garner this one pearl of wisdom, this one truth is to put all his work in proper perspective.

@shunyotube Nice chatting to you too.

@shunyotube I didn't remember which pill was used to get to the real world, that's why I wrote bothe colors. I mean the one Neo took. Regarding Drunvalo, he was the first I read about this forbidden archaelogy info. But after 10 years I realized the darkness in him.

Nice chatting. I'm in Taipei, so it's bed time. Later, friend.

Do that, but Drunvalo says dolphins are from the Pleadies, which are a consolation of stars. Only looked into him a bit, so don't claim to know his works...and appreciated the things he informed me about the Platonic Solids and other cool stuff. I do admit my mind closes when I hear much of what he says, though.

Fully agree with you about wanting to escape the anguish, etc. That's just where I am. And the blue/red pill question haunts me. Which do I really want to take?

[JohnLennon100]

@shunyotube I'll certainly check it out.

@shunyotube

Regarding the absurd ...I dont know exactly what you're referring to that but I've found that all things are absurd by nature and we get thrown down everytime by this because we use the mind and according to that we're looking for logic in all things. You see ...everyday news are absurd! and still people pay attention to that and still don't realize it. That's what the Taoists call the paradox. It appears to us in every moment and we either accept it as the truth or we reject it.

I'm not suggesting I don't find such things as you suggest about your friend's mother interesting. I go there in my mind, too. But posts like QualiaSoup's on anecdotal evidence and critical thinking, to name a few, should be viewed and considered.
