Hi,
I like the phrase;
what you give is what you get
am not sure that is quite philosophical but it's surely true in life
i believe in the laws of karma and the universal laws of cause and effect and suchlike
positive thinking and visualisation works
what you think is what you get - if it's right for you
not saying that I'm good at positive thinking though.

Hmmm... a philosophical thought: Robbie Williams is the only person in the world who can't attend to a Robbie Williams concert-yet he's the only person who's been present at every single one.

Okay, that's probably not too philosophical...

I don't know if it is philosophical but it is good :)

And the thread seems to be interesting... hope you'll post here many intresting quotes... I don't know any in english :/

Oooo I have another one, I almost forgot it. It was one of my favourites when I was young and angry.
It's from Amnesty International.

Why do we kill people

killing people is wrong

That's a good one.
At the time the Iraq war had started I was discussing it in a newsgroup. And at the time my favourite quote came from Sir Peter Ustinov:
Terrorism is the war of the poor and war is the terrorism of the rich.

I think my favourite one is:
Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans.

Seriously good q! :)
Maybe you can`t see things as you choose not to see them, and therefore see nothing?
Sometimes it`s easier to simplify things

Like the dad who gave the following explenation to his son, when the son asked what a Tupperware party was. "It`s a bunch of ladies sitting and selling plasticbowls to each other"
The boy starts laughing; "Come on! What is it really?" :D

Glad he didn't ask what an Ann Summer's party was :eek: (sorry but someone had to say it - I'll try to think of something a bit more philosophical)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder....?

Does anyone know what the precise question is about the tree in a forrest that falls but no one witnesses it. Does it fall or not.
I've had a great discussion once about this, but I was drunk so I don't remember the clue.

Do you mean "if a tree falls in the woods and no one's around to hear it, does it still make a sound?"

Also, if a man speaks and there are no women around, does it mean the man is still wrong?

I remember this interview with Chris Heath in '94 where Robbie asked if "Red and green are seldom seen -except on a fool" constitutes as a metaphore. It didn't. :D

If so I can't imagine why,

This reminds me of:

Does anyone know what the precise question is about the tree in a forrest that falls but no one witnesses it. Does it fall or not.
I've had a great discussion once about this, but I was drunk so I don't remember the clue.
I think the answer to that is rather physics than philosophic:
It does fall and it does make a sound.
It would even fall and make a sound if no humans were on earth who could ever see or hear it. ;)
There's probably dozens of trees falling this very moment without us knowing.

Yes, that was my answer as well, but I had the discussion with a student philosophy, and he had a different view. The opposite. That's why i ased. Because it made sense in my drunk brain, that I remember.

are you calling me a fool...?
maybe you're not
maybe i am :(

but just to prove i'm not:rolleyes: lol
a metaphor is a saying which uses the word "like" .or "as"....your eyes are like pools of deep water where i can dive in and drown
or your lips are as sweet as wine

a quote like Red and green are seen only on a fool , would be an adage not a metaphor:)
x
here's one
The beggar was well known for being a fool
when a man offered him the choice of two coins, he'd take the small one
all the people of the town were amazed by his foolishness
and came to offer him coins and he always, still took the smaller one
one day
the wiseman came to ask the beggar
why do you suffer being called a fool, why do you not take the larger coin?
the beggar replied
people need someone to feel superior to and sorry for
and my foolishness is infamous in this town so people delight in their game
i wouldn't have half as much fun, nor money, if i took the larger coin, they wouldn't come back

that's philosophical

Tink
12-08-09, 01:10 PM
Defining death depends whether you believe in an afterlife and/or reincarnation. I do.
My dog died last Monday. Where did he go? Is there an afterlife for dogs, or is there one big afterlife for all (once-)living beings.?

Red-Green
12-08-09, 02:38 PM
I too believe in an afterlife and reincarnation.
Sorry to hear about your dog
perhaps he is a soul on his own journey who once came to be your companion and maybe you'll meet again, somewhere somehow
I also believe in spirit guides and angels

Tink
12-08-09, 02:53 PM
Thanks! Yes, I believe in spirit guides. I'm pagan.

So, death is
... a cross-over to another consciousness level
... a new beginning
... ??

Do you believe in old souls? Bodies decay, but souls live on in new incarnations.
I've done regression and visited past lives, but perhaps that's another discussion.

positive thinking is`nt quite enough...
you can`t think positive when you don`t accept your "shadows"
that`s the way to let karma go :)

Yes, we need to understand our Shadow's nature and acknowledge it's power, and use it to our own good if it is not to overpower us and our efforts.

Hey.. do you know the song Radio, from a singer called Robert Peter Williams? (he is a famous singer, I swear for God) :p

Anyway... in the song we can find something like "If you offer nothing/ then everyone accepts".
It reminds me of Plato's Myth of the Cave!

If you read the book you will see that people were confined under a cave, facing a blank wall. The people in the cave were watching shadows projected on the wall by things passing in front of a fire behind them, and begin to ascribe forms to these shadows. According to Plato, the shadows are as close as the prisoners get to seeing reality.

As we can see, nobody was offering nothing to each other. When a guy set himself free, he saw a lot of things out of the cave, and when he came back to talk to the other people that there were more things in the world than the shadows - (in other words, offer something important to them). When this guy tried to do this they killed him!

This part of Radio make me think about philosophy!!!

Did you got what I mean???

here in Brazil, to became a Lawyer you have to study 5 years. in the first six months we have phiosophy, but almost nobody gives a fu*ck about it! But I really like and do complementaru courses, offered by the University!



Well.. Aristoteles(as we say in Brazil) have a lot of famous sentences about justice. In his "Nicomachean Ethics" He say that Justice is the biggest of the virtues and more wonderful then the stars, but I really don't know the most famous quote about Justice,m because he wrote a lot of things about Justice. :D

Well, sounds like you have the same system as us then. Have to do half a year of philosophy, and pass an exam, before allowed starting the actual study / course one`s already been acepted into. Makes no sence! And noone gives f### here either...

Good luck with lawschool:) Have done my 6 yrs; an awful lot of books.

The qoute I had in mind, has to do with law it think, when I gave it a second though.
Something like "law is reason beyond doubt"..?

IN the first six months we do 5 subjects. No one is about law. So, if we pass, we are able to do the next subjects. In each six months we do 6 or 5 subjects and the optional ones. This semester I chose Philosophy!!!:o
Are you from england
Good luck for you too.

Someone once wrote - I forget who...

" I talk to God, but he just laughs at my plans"

I was one of those people who had my life mapped out. I was supposed a supermodel/world leader/charity worker/company director/mensa member, married to George Clooney with 2.4 kids, houses regularly featured on MTV Cribs, etc etc by the time I was 21.

Needless to say 1 or 2 of those did not quite work out!!!

But, and sorry if this sounds mad, I find myself strangely inspired by Robbie's philosophy. His lyrics simply asks for help, understanding and love. And fingers crossed, it looks like he has is all now - love, success and happiness. He threw out to the universe asking for all the things he wanted and got them. I guess therefore if you don't ask, you dont get. Seems to me a good philosophy to go by.

seems all a bit too easy how you describe it...

Ah!, is that why I still have not won the lottery and George Clooney never returnes my calls?

You are right, if it was meant to be, it was meant to be. But sometimes you need to give the cosmic force a nudge to make sure they are listening and not just 'laughing at my plans' :)

I am beginning to suspect that had I joined this forum earlier, we could have solved all the world's major problems, and still had time to enjoy a nice cup of tea, before having a good old boogie to the Robsters tunes LOL.

Maybe its true the important bit is not the destination, but the journey itself.

berardi
31-10-09, 05:09 PM
I think that the best thing is to make sure that you enjoy every step of the journey, rather than anticipating arriving at your destination.

To enjoy the crunch of gravel under your feet, the wind whipping at your hair, the ice and snow burning your cheeks and the sun's warmth on your shoulders.

Arriving at your destination then feels like coming home, wherever you are.

by the moment i love an einstein quote - although it is not certain if it is really by einstein or just an attribute, but i love it

"Zwei Dinge sind unendlich: Das Universum und die menschliche Dummheit. Aber beim Universum bin ich mir nicht ganz sicher."

roughly said:
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe."

Holly and Paul then spend a carefree, romantic day together, visiting the library and going to Tiffany's, where they have a cheap ring from a box of Cracker Jack engraved. They share a kiss when they arrive home, and it is implied that they spend the night together.

Lullepups
07-12-09, 09:36 PM
A good advice, indeed ;) Thanks. My google says it is an Arabian proverb.

that`s all?

here you are:


Trust in Allah, but tether your camel first


Each day it happens: you could have done something but you didn't do it, and you are using the excuse that if God wants it done, He will do it anyhow. Or, you do something and then you wait for the result, you expect, and the result never comes. Then you are angry, as if you have been cheated, as if God has betrayed you, as if He is against you, partial, prejudiced, unjust. And there arises great complaint in your mind. Then trust is missing.

The religious person is one who goes on doing whatsoever is humanly possible but creates no tension because of it. Because we are very, very tiny, small atoms in this universe, things are very complicated. Nothing depends only on my action; there are thousands of crisscrossing energies. The total of the energies will decide the outcome. How can I decide the outcome?

But if I don't do anything then things may never be the same. I have to do, and yet I have to learn not to expect. Then doing is a kind of prayer, with no desire that the result should be such. Then there is no frustration.

Trust will help you to remain unfrustrated, and tethering the camel will help you to remain alive, intensely alive.


This Sufi saying wants to create the third type of man, the real man: who knows how to do and who knows how not to do; who can be a doer when needed, can say "Yes!" and who can be passive when needed and can say "No"--who is utterly wakeful in the day and utterly asleep in the night; who knows how to inhale and how to exhale; who knows the balance of life.

"Trust in Allah but tether your camel first."

This saying comes from a small story. A master was traveling with one of his disciples. The disciple was in charge of taking care of the camel. They came in the night, tired, to a caravanserai. It was the disciple's duty to tether the camel; he didn't bother about it, he left the camel outside. Instead of that he simply prayed. He said to God, "Take care of the camel," and fell asleep.

In the morning the camel was gone--stolen or moved away, or whatsoever happened. The master asked, "What happened to the camel? Where is the camel?" And the disciple said, "I don't know. You ask God, because I had told Allah to take care of the camel, and I was too tired, so I don't know. And I am not responsible either, because I had told Him, and very clearly! There was no missing the point. Not only once in fact, I told Him thrice. And you go on teaching 'Trust Allah,' so I trusted. Now don't look at me with anger."

The master said, "Trust in Allah but tether your camel first--because Allah has no other hands than yours." If He wants to tether the camel He will have to use somebody's hands; He has no other hands. And it is your camel! The best way and the easiest and the shortest way is to use your hands. Trust Allah--don't trust only your hands, otherwise you will become tense. Tether the camel and then trust Allah."

You will ask, "Then why trust Allah if you are tethering the camel?"--because a tethered camel can also be stolen. You do whatsoever you can do: that does not make the result certain, there is no guarantee. So you do whatsoever you can, and then whatsoever happens, accept it.

This is the meaning of tether the camel: do whatever is possible for you to do, don't shirk your responsibility, and then if nothing happens or something goes wrong, trust Allah. Then He knows best. Then maybe it is right for us to travel without the camel. It is very easy to trust Allah and be lazy. It is very easy not to trust Allah and be a doer. The third type of man is difficult--to trust Allah and yet remain a doer. But now you are only instrumental; God is the real doer, you are just instruments in His hands.

Oh, Beduins, deserts and camels ... that’s not my world.

A story varies depending on a source one uses but in general your explanation is very good. My story tells about one man who should have tied his camel while the meaning remains almost the same. This story is on: www. tomthumb.org/trustgod.shtml Well, it is almost a paraphrase of “the only person you can count on is yourself”.

Indeed, it may be easy to say that something was likely to happened and it just happened with or without one’s action. Not acting and waiting for something good means a dependence on either a fortune or a miracle. However in some cases one is not able to do anything because there are other circumstances. Fortune, miracle and chance must exist.:cool:

In the words of nineteenth-century Russian Bishop Ignatius Brianchaninov:

Wise temperance of the stomach is a door to all the virtues. Restrain the stomach, and you will enter Paradise. But if you please and pamper your stomach, you will hurl yourself over the precipice of bodily impurity, into the fire of wrath and fury, you will coarsen and darken your mind, and in this way you will ruin your powers of attention and self-control, your sobriety and vigilance.

And the last one about an internet and minds is interesting as well.

fancy more? ;)

The unbreakable relationship between twin photons is known as “entanglement.” When two photons are in a state of entanglement, the state of one photon is determined by the state of the other. In this amazing relationship the two particles influence each other's destiny—even if they are tens of thousands of kilometers apart. Entanglement is the key to realizing quantum teleportation
In order to understand entanglement, let us consider the example of two entangled electrons born simultaneously.
The states of two electrons can either be A (spin-up) or B (spin-down). Whichever one is A, the other will be B. However, until at least one of them is observed, the state of each electron is unknown.
Now suppose that one of the electrons is observed and is found to be in state A. Thus, the other electron's state is determined as B at the very instant the observation takes place, no matter how far apart the two electrons are.
The amazing behavior of entangled electrons can be explained using “Uncertainty Principle*1”—part of the discipline of quantum mechanics. However, 20th-century genius Albert Einstein was skeptical about quantum mechanics, as it seems to imply that information is transmitted to the other (far distant) electron of the pair instantaneously—that is, faster than the speed of light. He believed that it would be determined at the instant of their creation which electron would be A and which would be B. This proposition was named the EPR Paradox, taking its initials from the names Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen. This proposition stood in forthright opposition to quantum mechanics.
Are the states fixed to A or B in advance as Einstein contended? For a time, no suggestions were made about how it could actually be verified whose verdict was correct—Einstein's or that of quantum mechanics. In the 1960s, John Bell, a renowned Irish physicist, put forward a proposal for a groundbreaking method to investigate this question.
It was a difficult experiment. However, a successful experiment using photons was finally performed in the 1980s, and the results showed a victory for quantum mechanics! The amazing relationship of entanglement really does occur and Einstein was mistaken. The paradox was solved. With this realization, physicists realized that quantum teleportation might be possible, and if so would open the door to tremendous advances in computer science.

No probs I admire that you are very very good at english
Do you mean like if you were once a slave how that would explain your tendency to do things for people nowadays or if you were once a indian how you are drawn towards their beliefs n the likes or how if you were once a horse how it would explain the tendency to run for the hills every now n then or is that just me:D:D

Hello,

The concept of the reincarnation is not so popular in Europe, is it. But there is something called deja vu - the experience of feeling sure that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. Those things are not the same but noone can explain when someone was in such a situation and how it happened. No, no, I don't know answer for that but maybe the reincarnation could be a good explanation.:confused:

Parallel universe - it's like Narnia (by C. S. Lewis), isn't it ? And the parallel universe was often used in literature and films.

Love that film that would be so cool to have a parallell universe n be able to come back n not have lost anytime here. Or like the dr with his tardis only he cant go on his own time line:confused:

How about this is a theory to deja vu when we dream of situations n similar ones come up in real life n its not been a dream that you have remembered dreaming so when the similar situation occurs you get the deja vu feeling.

I cant remember where I got this from but a theory is when you get deja vu you know you have done something right.

I get weirded out by it sometimes n think mybe its one of those critical times where youre gonna say or do something that affects your karma in the future or somethin. I've jumped up n down n said a bit of gobbldy **** in the past when Ive had deja vu just to see what happens n how I feel.
Sometimes when I get it Ill say it out loud other times if Im in company I keep it to myself.

Mybe dreaming is that parallell universe I dont know what I was dreaming the other day but I woke myself up with smiling!!

and the sense of knowing

I watched the tsunami thing the other day the Where was God one that was on 4. One of the Buddhist monks had said that the only thing in life we can be sure of is death thats some certainty isnt it.

A couple of days after my papa passed away in the clouds there was a man shape cut out in the clouds as if he was walking.
After my dads funeral a few years ago I saw a rainbow and had phoned my papa to see if he was ok He said that that was a good sign He thought that was probably a sign that he'd made it to heaven. So I think the man silhoette was my papa lettng me know he was alright.

The last time I had it was in November when I met a new baby for the first time. The babys great grandmother had passed away a week before n never got to meet her mybe it was her n thats why I got deja vu or mybe Id been thinking about the couple n her dad becoming a dad n how chuffed hed be n thats when I got it when he was holding her. Mybe it was what happe ned after that I stood up to a subtextual put down n the perpetrator made a arse of herself with the come back she made. Mybe it was because I had made the right decisions that led me to the situation. Who Knows?

they don`t have to be incarnated.
but you can get in touch with them during meditations, they are with you all the time, the bond between soulmates is much stronger than to other souls. If you meet them in the physical life, it`s like a deep recognition...very exciting, harmonic, and there`s a deep knowing that you belong together. Much less frequent you meet your twinflame.

yep, that`s true
the body`s the manifestation of the soul,
and therefore we should care about it... it`s
controlled by hormones, but spiritual ppl call them chakras
if they`re in a flow, we are healthy
if there are blockades, we used to get sick
this can be a psychic blockade too

i`m not well inversed in it
i have no religion, but i`m religious ;)

but i`m taking pleasure in some excerpts of the bible
like this:

The Lord is my Sheperd,
I shall not thirst.
He took me to a green meadow,
And led me to fresh water.
He replenished my soul.
He led me down the right path,
for his name's sake.
And I went for a hike in a dark valley,
but I didn't fear unluckiness, for you are with me.
Your staff and rod comfort me.
You prepare a table for me in the face of my enemies.
You annoint my head in oil and give me an overflowing cup.
If I follow the good and merciful route I will live long.
And I will stay in the House of the
Lord forever

From time to time there are some religious aspects involved in the songs: ‘my Catholic shame’, ‘Lord, make me pure’ ‘And even though I talk with the Devil I only made the deal with God’, etc.

If Robbie would have liked to invite all women at least the fans to a ball he would have had a lot to do ;) dancing, dancing, dancing … but that is not going to happen. Few weeks ago Lullepups thought that a wedding was cancelled but I don't think Robbie would organise the ball.

Some persons are lucky to find their love being a teenager or so, the others have to “invite to a ball” several persons and some are constantly changing the partners which might seem interesting but not necessarily for everyone.

to assert the emptiness of things is to miss their reality.
The more you talk and think about it, the further astray you wander from the truth.
Stop talking and thinking and there is nothing you will not be able to know.
Hsin Hsin Ming


What is it that binds you?
You are not bound by any chains now.
Is it just the thought that you are bound that binds you?
Mental chains can only be broken by mental effort.
Zed (slightly edited)


Mindfulness is the aware, balanced acceptance of the present experience.
It isn't more complicated that that.
It is opening to or recieving the present moment, pleasant or unpleasant, just as it is,
without either clinging to it or rejecting it.

at the moment Michael is (still) by my side and sandalphon
today i felt the energy of an ascendend master, serapis bey :)


Serapis Bey - Chohan of the Fourth Ray



Serapis Bey is Chohan of the Fourth Ray, the white ray. Some fourth-ray qualities are purity, discipline, joy, hope and excellence. Serapis works with students to help them develop these qualities, gain mastery in the base-of-the-spine chakra and gradually and safely raise the kundalini fire that is stored in that chakra. He is a great devotee of the Divine Mother and of her light and fire within all souls.

Sometimes called “the disciplinarian” because of his fierce determination to save souls from self-indulgence and to move them along the most efficient path to their ascension, Serapis can help people prepare to receive the Holy Spirit’s gift of the working of miracles.

Serapis spent many lifetimes along the Nile, and as the Egyptian pharaoh Amenhotep III he constructed the physical temple at Luxor. His most familiar incarnation was Leonidas, the great warrior who led the Spartans in the famous battle at Thermopylae, Greece.

Serapis ascended around 400 B.C. His etheric retreat is located over Luxor, Egypt.

The Holy Spirit's Fourth Ray gift of the working of miracles is focused through the base-of-the-spine chakra.

The Ascended Master Serapis Bey is the Lord (Chohan) of the Fourth Ray and Hierarch of the Ascension Temple at Luxor, Egypt. Known as the great disciplinarian, he reviews and trains candidates for the ascension.

In the nineteenth century, Serapis Bey worked closely with El Morya, Kuthumi, Djwal Kul and other Masters to found the Theosophical Society.

The musical keynote of Serapis Bey is "Celeste Aïda" by Verdi and the keynote of his etheric retreat is "Liebestraum" by Liszt.

Serapis was embodied as a high priest in the ascension temple on Atlantis more than 11,500 years ago.

He was the Egyptian pharaoh Amenhotep III, c. 1417-1379 b.c., called "the Magnificent." He brought Egypt to its height of diplomatic prestige, prosperity and peace. His extensive building of monuments, palaces and temples included construction of the temple of Luxor, which was built to correspond to the outline of the human skeletal framework. Careful studies of its architecture have revealed that the entire temple explains many secret functions of the organs and nerve centers.

Serapis was also embodied as Leonidas, king of Sparta. In about 480 b.c., with only three hundred soldiers, he resisted the advance of Xerxes' vast Persian army in a herculean effort at Thermopylae. Though finally defeated, their fight to the last man is celebrated in literature as the epitome of heroism in the face of overwhelming odds.

Serapis Bey ascended in about 400 b.c.

In 1967, the Ascended Master Serapis Bey dictated the book Dossier on the Ascension: The Story of the Soul's Acceleration into Higher Consciousness on the Path of Initiation, which was recorded by the Messenger Mark L. Prophet.

In this book, Serapis offers profound answers to the questions of life after death. He outlines step by step how to follow the adepts of East and West, including Jesus Christ, who have been candidates at the mystery school of Luxor, Egypt, submitting to the initiations of the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid. Serapis teaches how to live life to its fullest in the here and now and how to consciously ascend (accelerate) into that higher reality which is the eternal abode of the soul.

WHAT IS A SHADOW?

The term "shadow" was first used by Carl G. Jung to describe the repressed or denied part of the Self. Robert Bly popularized this idea in A Little Book on the Human Shadow. Bly says that we were each born into a "360-degree personality." As infants we expressed the full breadth of our human nature, without editing or censoring.
As we grew up, however, we learned that certain slices of our 360-degree pie were unacceptable to the people around us. Maybe we were shamed for crying or punished for being angry. Maybe we were ridiculed for wanting attention or acting proud of ourselves. So, we learned to repress those slices of our pie; the ones that got us hurt. According to Bly, it was as if we threw these unacceptable qualities over our shoulder into a bag, which we've been dragging around behind us ever since.

we define "shadows" as all the parts of ourselves we have stuffed into the bag. These may be "positive" parts or "negative" parts. Our shadows are all those parts we have split off, repressed or denied — the parts of ourselves we are afraid to show.

We believe it is proper and useful to have a shadow bag, and to keep some shadows in the bag. But when the weight of the bag slows us down and prevents us from being who we really want to be, it is time to open it up. It is time to find a safe place to look into the bag, examine its contents, and see what needs to come back out.


HOW DO I RECOGNIZE MY SHADOWS?

You can identify your shadows by looking at what you project onto others. When you deny a trait in yourself, you tend to be very aware of that trait in other people. In the twelve-step tradition, they say, "If you spot it, you got it." This means that you are most aware of those traits in others which reflect your own shadows. You may react irrationally to one of these traits in someone else, becoming unduly annoyed and blowing things all out of proportion.

You can also notice the traits which you admire the most in others. Who do you look up to? Who are your idols? We often project our golden shadows onto others, and get stars in our eyes, because these people represent the qualities we have disavowed in ourselves out of a false sense of modesty. You could say that we paint other people with our shadows, for better and for worse. :rolleyes:

Another way to spot your shadows is to look for things you find yourself doing by accident. No matter how hard you try to keep your bag sealed, your shadows may leak out in a way that seems beyond your control.
For example, you may promise yourself that you're going to spend more time with your family, when you actually spend more time at work. You may find yourself jumping into a questionable relationship, when you know that this person isn't right for you. You may ignore your own rules about eating, smoking or drinking. When you repeat a pattern of behavior involuntarily, it is a sign that your shadow is running the show.

whoa great posts lullepups:cool:

I recently watched Dr Paranthasus (with Heath Ledger) and then Avator.

I dream alot and sometimes find this dream world a nicer place to be than reality. Sometimes I have to nap its like if I dont lie down Im going to fall down.
I was thinking avator the soldier goes to sleep to become a avator and Dr Paranthamus (thats not the right name but I cant remember it:eek:) People go into the mirror and into his imagination where they can be saved or taken by the devil.
I dont actually have a theory or anything Im just linking them together :o

hey souli (:D:)

i have to smile when you try to excuse your thoughts...:)
that`s what happened all the time when i spoke frankly about my truth,
i was condemned all the time...but this just happens as long as you`re unsure
and unconvinced with it. Now i`m really pleased with those who showed me my
shadows (and it was often painful).
Suddenly i `m finding more and more people
with common beliefs...but i`ll never forget that other beliefs are as important as mine :)

The earth is changing fast now, there are much more powerful transformative energies around
us...and more people are willingly to peel off old patterns (the chain reacting mass has been reached).
Those who don`t pay attention to it (it`s the path which causes massive pain) are used to stay in their behaviour, but it`s their free will and we have to respect it...but it`s needless to say that we will have hard times in the future...massive upheavals will come our way, this is nessessary, before the situation improves there must be chaos...it`s a natural and spiritual law = evolution.
You can see it almost in public...many hidden delicts are revealing, and the earth reacts on
the upheavals with natural desasters. But this is no act of justice, like many people say, it`s just the cause and effect of how we behave (i`ve given up the karma theory).
The astrology has it`s own definition for it, it`s the influence of saturn, the great stirer.

Every so often
I feel like I am forgotton
It makes me feel rotten

Aquintances I have many
Friends they're ten a penny

I feel like noone gets me

So I keep my woes to myself
my thoughts my feelings
Seems like they are eating
my soul away

I try and fit in
But I always stand out
its what my auras all about

So forward I shine
Coz I know I cant hide

Then when Im all shined out
and theres noone else like me about
to replinish our sources
work through the courses

I have to find myself again

When I feel weak and its support I seek
all I see is grim faces on the street

I feel like Ive done
something wrong again
God I really need a friend

I try not to this show

involuntary or contraction

what is repeating all the time? just like i said, it`s painful, but it brings your inner freedom and peace...but you`ll have to be responsible for ALL your actions, there are no excuses anymore!
The truth is that our souls choose everything comes along our way so it`s easier to give up judging first, no good, no bad, just experiences

Just havnt been feeling that spring of joy through myself which I have. Mybe the tears last night that I shed will start the joy flowing again.

Behaviours Leading to Self-Actualization

Experience life as a child does, with full absorption and concentration

Try something new rather than sticking to secure and safe ways

Listen to your own feelings in evaluating experiences rather than to the voice of tradition or authoruty or the majority

Be honest; avoid pretenses or "game playing"

Be prepared to be unpopular if your views do not coincide with those of most people

Assume responsiblilty

Work hard at whatever you decide to do

Try to identify your defenses and have the courage to give them up

Since the Fall of 2008, the planets in our solar system have been slowly moving to create a rare and unique planetary pattern, called the Grand Cross.

A cross is created when four planets are connected as follows: two planets are in opposition to one another, and are then connected at 90 degree angles to two more planets (also in opposition to one another). See diagram opposite.

This configuration brings conflicting energies into our awareness, thereby motivating growth. There is also a tendency for the opposing energies to become polarized, creating a stalemate situation.

The opposition connections create a tension where the two opposing planets see each other across the circle, yet must learn to understand and talk to one another in order to get along. Eventually, there is a meeting in the middle, a balance point, where the energies from both planets are equally utilized, similar to learning two new talents at once.

We spend time learning one talent, and then take a break from it in order to learn the other talent. Soon we have mastered both talents and are able to use them almost at the same time, creating a unique mix of talents that reflect, in turn, how unique we are as persons. Most everyone born has at least one opposition; they make us grow and expand ourselves. Otherwise we'd be lazy and ineffectual, or at least breezing through life without looking deeply at ourselves.

The squares create another tension. Visualize four people sitting at a table, each pair sitting in opposition to one another, yet at the same time sitting at 90 degrees to each other. They must move their bodies, making an adjustment, in order to face and interact with the people on their left and right.

There is a change of focus and mindset in a square, a restlessness of sorts, requiring us to take in new information that we didn't know we needed when we began. Sometimes we aren't really willing to do so; therefore the interaction is not always smooth or fulfilling. The squares usually connect conflicting elements, such as water and fire or earth and air. Each must figure out a way to connect with the other, find common ground so to speak.

This fixed energy can get in the way, where fear of change, staying in a rut, and being stubborn can slow down the onward self-awareness process. Initiative and confidence have been drained at an early age, therefore a rebuilding and developing flexibility has been required through life experiences in order to achieve much of anything. The Grand Cross pattern itself creates a determined, dynamic and forceful personality with a strong sense of purpose or destiny.

The current slow creation of the coming Cardinal Grand Cross involves four planets (Uranus and Jupiter, the Moon's South Node, Mars and Saturn, and lastly, Pluto and the Moon's North Node) that will be in the Cardinal signs: Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn, respectively, in the summer of 2010.

The Cardinal signs align with the four angles of the natural wheel of the Zodiac, (see below) where Aries sits on the left of the circle (the Ascendant or Rising Sign), Cancer sits at the bottom (the I.C. or Imem Coeli or Underworld), Libra sits on the right (the Descendent) and lastly, Capricorn sits at the top (the M.C. or Medium Coeli or the Midheaven). These cusp points also coincide with the cardinal points of the ecliptic: the two Equinoxes and the two Solstices.

The Cardinal signs signal the beginning of each new season, the Spring Equinox (Aries), the Summer Solstice (Cancer), the Fall Equionox (Libra) and the Winter Solstice (Capricorn). Therefore the energy is characterized as being outgoing, taking the initiative, and active. Negatively, the energy can be associated with a lack of staying power.

A Cardinal Grand Cross pattern is somewhat inhibiting where the planets will want to release their outgoing energy, yet are prevented from doing so. The lack of self-confidence will need to be overcome, proving their strength, and if successful in doing so, will manage to achieve quite a lot in the end. Yet it will be a long process to do so.

The Fall of 2008 saw the first phase of the coming Cardinal Grand Cross, where global economics took a dive and a new "President of Hope" was elected in the US. Most of us have been affected by these two events. With Pluto entering Capricorn as of November 28th, 2008, we have also seen integrity issues of world leaders, our own Federal Government leaders, as well as local governments, ponzi schemes unveiled and corporate CEO accountability. Pluto will be in Capricorn until January 21, 2024. Expect more scandals and unearthing of that which has been hidden from view for decades. Issues of integrity re: our governments, and all the traditional institutions (education, law, medicine, science) will be transformed by 2024. What is now will be forever changed.

This Fall begins the second phase of more global and personal change. From October 30th to early December, Saturn begins its journey into Libra, squaring off to Pluto now in Capricorn. What will this mean for us? Saturn will slow down any positive forward progress, as if confronted by brick walls. Usually Saturn in Libra means a natural sense of justice, showing sympathy and understanding of other people. There will be more tact and diplomacy, being impartial, flexible and the need to see fair play. However, squaring off to Pluto means uncovering intolerance towards partners or colleagues, as well as power and control struggles.

Look to your charts to see where Libra and Capricorn are; this will tell you what Houses of Life Experience will be highlighted in your life. For me this will be my 2nd House of personal resources, self-worth and self-esteem, squaring off with my 5th House of creativity, play, fun, romance and children.

We cannot push forward that which is not ready to move, therefore why waste time and emotional or physical energies? There will be blockages, hence delays, and there is always a reason and a grand plan for it all. We will only know the why of it later on, after this phase has passed. Hence patience and flexibility will be required, in huge doses.

Special care must be taken health-wise prior to, during and for a few weeks thereafter as Saturn can cause some kind of limiting pain or uncharacteristic constipation. Hence the need for patience and flexibility!

We can feel frustrated from time to time due to the delays and inaction. We need to take a fallback position where other interests and hobbies can keep us occupied until the way is made clear for us. Forcing the issues will only garner a waste of time and further energies, as well as hampering our immune systems even more, and psychological well being.

Mercury, the planet of communication, reasoning and learning, will be heading into Retrograde again beginning December 26th and going Direct January 15, 2010. Expect the the unexpected, tune in creatively and intuitively, and be patient and flexible while technology and all things communication seem to not operate as planned or as per usual. A good time to take advantage of Boxing Day's original theme of boxing up and clearing out all the mess from Christmas - organize those closets and drawers and cupboards while working off the holiday cheer!

January 13 to February 15, 2010 is another round of Saturn squaring off to Pluto, however this is in Retrograde motion, therefore the energies will be directed inward, so no forward action will be available during this time.

June 25 to August 5, 2010 is when Pluto, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars finally create their Grand Cross pattern, all aligning at the beginning degrees of the four Cardinal signs! This will indeed be a time of intense and dramatic change worldwide. Look to your own natal chart Houses of Life Experience to see where the signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn will be dancing and making changes in your life. Cancer and Aries in my chart are in the 11th and 8th Houses of Life Experience. This means my Future Self and the friends and allies I want to bring along with me (11th House), and my Joint Resources, sexuality and psychological self (8th House) will be at play, squaring off with Capricorn and Libra, respectively.

Finally, November 1 to December 26, 2010 is round two of the Grand Cross Pattern, adding in the Moon's Nodes to the mix. The bottom line: be as positive and loving as you can every day; be patient with yourself and others; be pro-active and take responsibility for your own stuff, rather than blaming others (i.e. the governments, doctors or lawyers).

It is a time to reinvent ourselves into a new form and way of being. Both Neptune and Uranus have been traveling in each others signs (Neptune in Aquarius and Uranus in Pisces) paving the way for all of us to open our minds and hearts to our Spiritual selves, incorporating that part of ourselves consciously into the everyday of our lives for the past 7-10 years. Notice the change in consciousness globally: the spiritual movies, TV shows, books, workshops, even people using crystals and aromatherapy in the workplace to reduce stress. None of which existed 10 years prior!

The Cardinal Grand Cross portends a time of living our spirit, consciously, with intent, for now on. What side of the Integrity Fence (Capricorn) do you reside on? How well are you living your life Independent of others expectations (Aries)? How much Nurturing (Cancer) are you allowing for yourself, first, then others? Is Equality and for the Good of All (Libra) working in all of your relationships?

We live in interesting and challenging times! Are you ready for it?

And God Said No

I asked God to take away my pride. And God said "No".
He said it was not for Him to take away, but for me to give up. I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. And God said "No".
He said her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience. And God said "No".
He said patience is a by-product of tribulations. It isn't granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness. And God said "No".
He said He gives me blessings, happiness is up to me.
I asked God to spare me pain. And God said "No".
He said suffering draws me apart from worldly cares and brings me closer to Him.
I asked God to make my spirit grow. And God said "No".
He said I must grow on my own. But He will prune me to make me fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. And God said "No".
He said He will give me life, that I may enjoy all things.
I ask God to help me love others, as much as he loves me.
And God said "Ah, finally you have the idea!"

Anyone who want to talk about philosophy?

What`s your fave quote? Hope to hear it:)

Mine`s def "I think, therefore I am"

:)

My favorite subject! Studying Babyloian and Indian as we speak.
Babylonian because they created the first known celestial coordinate system, aka the Zodiac, and next on my study wishlist is Astronomy
and Indian because it applies to all, universalism...what a great word huh?

Favorite philosopher at moment is Karl Marx and fave quote about him, not from him is: “ The merit of Marx is that he suddenly produces a qualitative change in the history of social thought. He interprets history, understands its dynamic, predicts the future, but in addition to predicting it, he expresses a revolutionary concept: the world must not only be interpreted, it must be transformed. ” — Che Guevara, Marxist

I've read through this thread and there are some great thoughts happening here...... looking forward to being apart x

Among the sciences, astronomy and astrology occupied a conspicuous place in Babylonian society. Astronomy was of old standing in Babylonia. The zodiac was a Babylonian invention of great antiquity, and eclipses of the sun and moon could be foretold.

Saturn has now completed the entire transit through methodical sign of Virgo. What a relief, we shift into new area’s of mastery. One particular theme with Saturn in Libra is about “Balance.”But wait, balance is not boring or static. It is alive and in motion. You have to be quick and perceptive.


Enough is enough. It may be we are pushed up against the off-balance and “fed up enough” where we begin to deeply desire concrete change towards a well-balanced relationship, both internally (within self) and externally(life and with others). It is time to grow up, mature and be responsible. And the dreaded “P” word – patience…. in relating with Others or even with yourself.

So take a deep breath and let’s begin with the task at hand. Generally speaking, with Saturn’s transit through Libra, our attention is brought to the following themes on a personal or intimate level; taking a more realistic and serious look at one to one relationships of all kinds, is the foundation of the relationship stable and well nurtured, if each part is a complimentary equal, and if there is harmony and cooperation.

On a business level; foundation of the partnership based in integrity, harmony and proper values. Saturn in Libra will bring up weak spots around; if we need the approval from others, are we afraid to be confident and assertive, are we settling or overly compromising our basic needs within the relationship as it evolves.

Saturn in Libra brings up boundaries, limitations, how well or how equally is the give/take, as well as any place we may feel inadequate. Old ways of defining a particular relationship may change so that it honors both parties involved. Or perhaps the old parameters of what was acceptable have to change in order to honor everyone involved. It will be crucial to be involved in a partnership or relationship that is based in integrity, compassion and cooperation. We may even go over commitment issues, even within ourselves. We must step up and be responsible to make concrete changes so we are experiencing well-balanced relationships of all kinds.

Remember that ‘Relationship’ represents with anyone and anything in Life. It is not just about intimate love relationships but they are very much a part of the fabric of Saturn’s transit through the sign of Libra. Saturn shifts into Retrograde phase in later part of January 2011. We have quite a few months to take long and serious looks at the reality of the situation or relationship and make real changes for the better.

Saturn in Libra also has the potential to usher in brand new quality relationship(s) of all types as well. Some people have done their homework so to speak and are eagerly awaiting the manifestation of new experiences when it comes to relationship, partnership and alliances. If you are sincere and do your part, Saturn’s symbolic promise is that there will be equal recognition, success and opportunity of high caliber brought back into your life. Nothing goes noticed in the Universe, there is an equal give and take in all of Life. Saturn’s message in Libra is to help us restore the innate balance, harmony and integrity within all types of relationships, partnerships and alliances. We must work in cooperation rather than competition.

today most people are in karmic relationships, which have got a high potential
developing the personality

how do you recognize a karmic relationship?
(this is my interpretation from my own karmic connection)

-you`ll get into high (non sexual) excitement with your partner
-feeling of intensive attraction and rejection, a mixture of fascination and panic
-one of both develops undefined guilt feelings and the other gets in anxiety
-could you describe it as a love-hate relationship?
-is there a need for revenge without any reason?
-do you want to be together though everything`s speaking against it?
-do you have the feeling that the relationship is worthwile but you don`t know why?
-do you allow to kill the person or to be killed in your fantasy? (important last 3 words:D)
-do you have the feeling of an unfinished, old story which is strangely effective yet?

when the karmic bond is dissolved (most of them breakup after this, cause there is no further way to learn mutually), you may have the chance to meet a soulmate with a less karmic background
these forms are based on more understanding, harmony and be-in-more-tune with each other
but sometimes still have lessons together,
which still have areas of conflict, but much more easy to handle (the reasons are mentioned above).

or you may hit the jackpot and meet your twinsoul
(if they are incarnated)
this is a love as it´s described in mostly all poems, lyrics and films
(all people do have a selective soul retention to it)

how do you recognize your twinsoul?
(i got this from a website, cause it was too large to describe :p)

-Chances are you've met through a set of unusual circumstances... totally unplanned and unexpected
-There is an instantaneous feeling that you have known the other before
-You felt an immediate and deep connection for one another
-There is an electrifying feeling between the two of you that words cannot describe
-The relationship is immediate... as though no time had been lost since you were last together
-It feels as though you had never lived before the reunion occurred
-You feel a deep sense of unity that you've have never known before
-It brings on feelings you never thought possible
-The two of you are inseparable
-When you look into each other's eyes time and space have no meaning
-There are no barriers between the two of you... the relationship is a totally open one
-Your conversations seem to go on forever
-The two of you have a strong urge to serve humanity in a deep and meaningful way
-You give to the other and never think of receiving in return
-There is a special sacredness to your relationship that transcends anything you've ever experienced before
-You still have karma with your twin (from previous lives) but the two of you resolve it all with total forgiveness and unconditional love
-Neither one of you are dependent on the other for your sense of self
-There is a real feeling of unlimitedness to your feelings... you have a strong sense of eternity
-Your feelings for each other are very spiritual
-There are no restrictions within the relationship... all is freedom without the need for ownership or control
-The two of you know without doubt that you have been brought together for a reason
-You do not compete with one another nor do you pretend to be other than who you are
-In spite of your sameness there is no doubt you feel a sense of completion through the other
-Trust, patience, acceptance of each other's weaknesses happen automatically
-There is a great sense of purpose and meaning to the relationship
-Your sexuality with one another is a sacred act that celebrates the unconditional love you have for one another
-When you look into the other's eyes you see yourself
-You experience a sense of completeness that is without comparison

this might seems to be the perfekt match, but to be considered in advance, you won`t meet and live happily ever after.
some twinsouls will enter a partnership and some won`t. it depends on what is planned for this life and if the lessons are completed. Claims to power, jealousy and perception of possession, which are demands of the ego, have no purpose in this connection.

i hope it was understandable (linguistic and with regards to content) :)



The only important thing in life are the traces of love that we leave behind when we have to leave unasked and say farewell

yes
but i`ve never been interested in conspiracy theories that much
i was particularly interested in what`s happening inside of me
the outside searching is mostly the beginning (until it brings you back inwards again)

btw,it`s amazing what`s going on actually
i`m a part of some people
and it has finally clicked with some of them
relating to their life purpose...
it`s a magnificent time quality now
everything`s going so fast whilst the past was slow and stolid
the longing for corresponding bodily,mental and spiritual balance is increasing,
self-responsibility is arising...i`m thrilled :)

you should ask my friend Thomas for his ayahuasca experiences *loool*
i guess it wasn`t the best idea of his life :rolleyes:
i have no idea where he is now, he`s probably doing his globetrotter thing again...
searching and no end in sight, but he won`t arrive to himself that way ;)

...or the fear of letting go

at some point in my life (isn`t long ago) everything seems lost...
the love of my life was (apparently) gone and i also had loads of fears of my financial situation...
sometimes i didn`t know how to make it through til the end of month (i was mostly afraid for my son), and i fell ito a deep dark hole

what i always knew is that i`d never give up, cause there have been moments in my life when i`ve seen the "light", when i was at one with all...but how was it possible to make it a permanent condition?

all i should know is to pray, and i did, asking god what to do...
and it seems as if god answered :

"DO YOU TRUST ME?"

i said: yes i do, but i don`know how i will make it!!!
(guess i expected a kind of instruction)

and it replied once more:

"DO YOU TRUST ME?"

"yes, but...."

"stop!!!...DO YOU TRUST ME?"

i guess that`s when my heart opened and i let go everything. It takes a lot of trust to give up the control over the complete life without suffering and fears of how will it all be and where do we will get.

i got into a healing flow and a phase of regeneration, but i always had and still have to renew the control of my thoughts and transform them into a "everything`s alright, otherwise it wouldn`t be" or "only if i change my inner world the outer will follow" , and i felt the first time what it means to love unconditional with my heart, a thing i only knew with my mind. Additionally i started to love myself the most, and it implies that i wasn`t longer willing to be manipulated and i had to set clear limits (these two forms of love go hand in hand).

something magical happened: it seems as if the right things came to me wondrous ways; whenever i needed something quite urgent it came to me (material and emotional)...i found a companion, a "heavenly sister", after all the friends whom i`ve trusted were gone (even my clairvoyant), and i know we`ve been reunited by fate to help each other cause we have similar life conditions.

money came to me whenever i needed some (sometime it`s too funny how "they" arrange things) , and my relations to others moved into a clear positive direction, i know now that i will work with people some day and i`m doing further steps to that effect now.

i live abundantly now, i´m not on a low flame anymore. I am very thankful to all the things are happening, and that`s causing a chain reaction: the more thankful i am the more i get back...joy is doubled when you share it...

and that`s the reason i`m writing this, i know it`s my life task bringing people back home to their hearts

...and please don`t believe that it`s easy for me talking like this, cause there is still a fear of speaking from my heart, but my guides communicated that it`s time to share my luck and my experiences

i have to admit that it isn`t an easy way...it`really not , but i came to the conclusion that it`s not possible without pain and suffer, cause you can`t see the light without any shadows...that`s the price, but it`s really worth it!!! (if i`d know how soothing it is i would have done it long before:D)

unfortunately i`m not able to write more due to speech differences, but i know that it will come clearly to the right ones sooner or later...it doesn`t matter

thanks for your attention!
much love to you all :)
