Question about drugs, sorry:

If proper meditation techniques for an individual be decided by the individual, how are you certain that drug use hinders rather than helps in any particular case?

@DannyEmbry,

I have had this conversation several times and more or less agree with you out under the tail of the probability curve. However, I mainly talk to the fat part of the curve. I can't address it very well here in 500 characters or less. Send me a YouTube message where the reply is not so restricted and I will paste in a more detailed reply.

Just the opposite. learn to meditate and engage fully with the reality around you. Locking yourself up in your room and meditating all the time is not a good way to grow the quality of your consciousness -- it leaves one dysfunctional and out of balance.

I'm curious to know who is the person "lay-o-lee" he is talking about at the start of this vid (#13) - the person who "figured it out 26 hundred years ago". I've tried searching various spellings of this on the net but can't find anything. Can anyone help out?

My error. My mind slipped in another name very familiar to me -- Lao Lee -- because it sounded a little similar. One of thoes bloopers where you just say the wrong thing because you are thinking faster than you can talk. -- Your mind has gone on to the next thing while your mouth is still trying to say the last thing.

what I intended to say was:

The name is: Lao Tsu.

Lao Tsu is pronounced somthing like Low Sue. The book Lao Tsu wrote is: Tao Te Ching.

Tao Te is pronounced Dow De

I really like this lecture; skeptics: just keep an open mind! I don't believe 100% of what he says is truth, but disprove it. Unless i missed something (probable) after listening to the first few minutes of this vid - i don't conclude he is presenting all of this information as irreputable fact but rather plausable "theory" with at least some truth and great ideas and concepts.

Motive is important to me, and he explains his well. He is not trying to persuade, but inspire you to experience.

I feel a bit awful that so many of us, myself included, have questioned Tom so many times and in so many ways on the use of drugs. We sure do like to get caught up in our techniques, don't we? I think we're all just looking for a shortcut, I know i'd like one. I'm worried if i spend the next 12 months regularly meditating, I may have no progress and become demoralized. I've never meditated before, but i'm going to start soon. It just doesn't feel like the right time yet.

This man speaks th truth.

@MrTickleparty,

Intensive meditaon may be a very good technique to practice once in a while, but not the best way to live your life.

Hip-Hop or constant freestyling, rhyming creating poetry inside your head is the perfect mantra

A good way to meditate, I think, is to stare at grass and really relax. I can do it standing up, smoking a cigarette. But, I don't ever go very far with it. But, it's strange, after a short time, the grass I see starts to look all the same. Like a fractal pattern develops in the grass itself. Still looks like grass, just a repeating pattern. BUt, I also know that there are no two blades of grass that are the same.

In order to understand what Mr. Campbell tries to explain in 18 videos with lots of contradictions, I suggest you better see Chuck Hillig, THE MEANING OF LIFE, in youtube, and with that you will understand everything in just 13 minutes. Save your time.
