  2. It's something we do almost daily... some daily... the cord cannot be severed... not a worry... Yes, it is potentially dangerous, for a great many reasons....
  3. There is no entity that can withstand Michael and His Legions.... the time old beseeching call is " Michael, Michael, Michael.... Help Me Now, Please I Need Your Aid." Say this aloud in your moment of need and know you will be assisted... See if that works for you my friend... ( know that it will... )
  4. I assumed it was from Heinlein..... 1961... stranger in a strange land ... the original term perhaps ? ...... ( of course i understood your usage nesty, as well spoken as always...) that would be a reference to stranger in a strange land too, wouldn't you think??
  5. kept tripping on his namesake, to the frustration of the assembled throng. Marty called a question to the crowd,"......
  6. Hey ozymandias - we look upon your work and tremble... yuk yuk happy birthday...
  7. , individually, and with a certain confident air, march to the beat of a different drummer.
  8. The Last Oracle by Algernon Charles Swinburne --------------------------------------------- eipate toi basilei, xamai pese daidalos aula. ouketi PHoibos exei kaluban, ou mantida daphnen, ou pagan laleousan . apesbeto kai lalon udor. Years have risen and fallen in darkness or in twilight, Ages waxed and waned that knew not thee nor thine, While the world sought light by night and sought not thy light, Since the sad last pilgrim left thy dark mid shrine. Dark the shrine and dumb the fount of song thence welling, Save for words more sad than tears of blood, that said: Tell the king, on earth has fallen the glorious dwelling, And the watersprings that spake are quenched and dead. Not a cell is left the God, no roof, no cover In his hand the prophet laurel flowers no more. And the great king's high sad heart, thy true last lover, Felt thine answer pierce and cleave it to the core. And he bowed down his hopeless head In the drift of the wild world's tide, And dying, Thou hast conquered, he said, Galilean; he said it, and died. And the world that was thine and was ours When the Graces took hands with the Hours Grew cold as a winter wave In the wind from a wide-mouthed grave, As a gulf wide open to swallow The light that the world held dear. O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear! Age on age thy mouth was mute, thy face was hidden, And the lips and eyes that loved thee blind and dumb; Song forsook their tongues that held thy name forbidden, Light their eyes that saw the strange God's kingdom come. Fire for light and hell for heaven and psalms for pæans Filled the clearest eyes and lips most sweet of song, When for chant of Greeks the wail of Galileans Made the whole world moan with hymns of wrath and wrong. Yea, not yet we see thee, father, as they saw thee, They that worshipped when the world was theirs and thine, They whose words had power by thine own power to draw thee Down from heaven till earth seemed more than heaven divine. For the shades are about us that hover When darkness is half withdrawn And the skirts of the dead night cover The face of the live new dawn. For the past is not utterly past Though the word on its lips be the last, And the time be gone by with its creed When men were as beasts that bleed, As sheep or as swine that wallow, In the shambles of faith and of fear. O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear! Yet it may be, lord and father, could we know it, We that love thee for our darkness shall have light More than ever prophet hailed of old or poet Standing crowned and robed and sovereign in thy sight. To the likeness of one God their dreams enthralled thee, Who wast greater than all Gods that waned and grew; Son of God the shining son of Time they called thee, Who wast older, O our father, than they knew. For no thought of man made Gods to love or honour Ere the song within the silent soul began, Nor might earth in dream or deed take heaven upon her Till the word was clothed with speech by lips of man. And the word and the life wast thou, The spirit of man and the breath; And before thee the Gods that bow Take life at thine hands and death. For these are as ghosts that wane, That are gone in an age or twain; Harsh, merciful, passionate, pure, They perish, but thou shalt endure; Be their flight with the swan or the swallow, They pass as the flight of a year. O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear! Thou the word, the light, the life, the breath, the glory, Strong to help and heal, to lighten and to slay, Thine is all the song of man, the world's whole story; Not of morning and of evening is thy day. Old and younger Gods are buried or begotten From uprising to downsetting of thy sun, Risen from eastward, fallen to westward and forgotten, And their springs are many, but their end is one. Divers births of godheads find one death appointed, As the soul whence each was born makes room for each; God by God goes out, discrowned and disanointed, But the soul stands fast that gave them shape and speech. Is the sun yet cast out of heaven? Is the song yet cast out of man? Life that had song for its leaven To quicken the blood that ran Through the veins of the songless years More bitter and cold than tears, Heaven that had thee for its one Light, life, word, witness, O sun, Are they soundless and sightless and hollow, Without eye, without speech, without ear? O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear! Time arose and smote thee silent at his warning, Change and darkness fell on men that fell from thee; Dark thou satest, veiled with light, behind the morning, Till the soul of man should lift up eyes and see. Till the blind mute soul get speech again and eyesight, Man may worship not the light of life within; In his sight the stars whose fires grow dark in thy sight Shine as sunbeams on the night of death and sin. Time again is risen with mightier word of warning, Change hath blown again a blast of louder breath; Clothed with clouds and stars and dreams that melt in morning, Lo, the Gods that ruled by grace of sin and death! They are conquered, they break, they are stricken, Whose might made the whole world pale; They are dust that shall rise not or quicken Though the world for their death's sake wail. As a hound on a wild beast's trace, So time has their godhead in chase; As wolves when the hunt makes head, They are scattered, they fly, they are fled; They are fled beyond hail, beyond hollo, And the cry of the chase, and the cheer. O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear! Day by day thy shadow shines in heaven beholden, Even the sun, the shining shadow of thy face: King, the ways of heaven before thy feet grow golden; God, the soul of earth is kindled with thy grace. In thy lips the speech of man whence Gods were fashioned, In thy soul the thought that makes them and unmakes; By thy light and heat incarnate and impassioned, Soul to soul of man gives light for light and takes. As they knew thy name of old time could we know it, Healer called of sickness, slayer invoked of wrong, Light of eyes that saw thy light, God, king, priest, poet, Song should bring thee back to heal us with thy song. For thy kingdom is past not away, Nor thy power from the place thereof hurled; Out of heaven they shall cast not the day, They shall cast not out song from the world. By the song and the light they give We know thy works that they live; With the gift thou hast given us of speech We praise, we adore, we beseech, We arise at thy bidding and follow, We cry to thee, answer, appear, O father of all of us, Paian, Apollo, Destroyer and healer, hear!
  9. thats what all this is about, sharing and asking questions... i'm curious about the one god comment though... and we've thoroughly discussed the John question... I feel I AM in touch with the part of me which HAS been alive forever..... and in my personal opinion, HELL is the absence of the TRUTH, Hell is all around you, Hell is not realizing you are god.... and thinking someone must save you.... I look forward to reading your posts for a while, as im not sure i fully understand your position...
  10. Yes, this really is ( ** caution for language ** )
  11. hello Moobesh.... very nice to hear from you... I would like to make a suggestion to you.... These concepts you've been introducing yourself to are similar to any other spiritual ideas.... you will need time to digest what it all means to you... You will need time to make the logical and intuitive leaps which will further understanding... Never stop searching... go back to the wisdom of the messengers.... read the bible... read the koran... read the vedas... the laws of Manu, etc... whichever you feel an affinity for, for there is magic ( an expression only )in those texts... with your new found perspective things will become clearer and clearer... you will find NEW meanings, and further understanding... These concepts you are being introduced to are just that.... you must also begin to understand how to fit it all together... as a for instance : yes, you may override the course you set for yourself before incarnating, you may give yourself all that makes your physical incarnation the pinnacle of material manifestation.... enjoying luxuries, the opposite sex, drugs, pizza with extra cheese, etc.... if you are truly drawn to that, by all means experience that which you desire.... however if you would like an idea of the APPROPRIATE way to behave, you must seek the answer deep within... there is a part of you which is ancient.... there is a part of you which has overseen multiple lifetimes and vast ranges of experience... THIS part of you has set your course.... if you truly wish to acknowledge the being that you are, and make the choice which is APPROPRIATE - you must be reintroduced to this amazing being..... reintroduced to the YOU which is ACTIVELY living in your Father's image.... and you need look no further than the mirror... you have a direct connection to this person... you must rediscover it... Jesus ( Jmmanuel ) brought you the ability to discern this course for yourself... the age of the guru is gone... you have no need to accept anothers truth if it does not fit you... but you must understand LAW... and this will be explained to you when you are ready... you WILL begin to see it first.... Be aware that those folks who "channeled" that information, were doing so through the filter of their consciousness.... you will find no one man or woman who has all the truth... it is NOT meant to be... only the truth which can be delivered by your higher self will suit you to a " tee "... How will this connection be made??? Meditation and introspection with the awareness that you have spirit guides who will assist, and the belief that there is no power which may keep you from yourself once you have begun to search.... however you may get impatient and give up the chase of your own accord, when what you consider sufficient time has passed with no obvious results... that is your choice... but it is nowhere near proof that it is impossible for you my friend..... a driving will and a surety of success IS THE METHOD WHICH WORKS.... seek and you shall find... but dont expect it tomorrow...
  12. Here's one for Raven... prolly more to your liking -
  13. Dan let me be the first ( i would assume ) to inform you that there are other methods of introduction to the Christ Spirit... He did a GREAT thing for the souls on this planet, which is immediately apparent to some people..... no bible necessary for knowing HIM... I have NO fear of my God... HE doesn't require it... actually discourages it for our own benefit.... not healthy... Personal experience.... and spiritual instruction... there is no mistake when the Spirit enters you, or you enter into spirit.... I am perfectly clear that we don't have the same ideas about things Dan, but from my perspective you are spouting off about a book, when I have personal experience to inform me..( that's definitely not meant as insult, simply how i feel, and I never phrase things that way, just showing you how i could respond as you do...).. In my opinion personal experience trumps another's word every time.... my point being - My beliefs on the subject ARE every bit as valid as yours ( I could be rude and say " more valid "). I understand why you believe the Bible is necessary to discover the Christ, however many folks don't feel that way... and lastly Dan.... You may not accept it because of your beliefs... but you would benefit greatly from some historical exploration of the church which brings you these ideas.......and dan, trace you faith back to it's inception... what was the cause of the of the split from the church which spawned your particular belief???? because if i'm right - you are not Catholic.....
  14. ok, fawzo, that made me feel guilty..... Carpenter, I once, as a small child, agreed with you... however I have less patience with " you're going to hell " talk than i once did.... what you are spouting is dangerous, ignorant, and just plain rude... I disagree with a lot of folks on here, however except for a little dry humor and repetition, I hope I haven't actively disrespected anyone except Dattaswami...... I would have been ok with the statement had it said anything similar to " I believe ".... I would not like to be a reason for you to avoid this forum... and i could actally enjoy what you have to say... but Pete's swell folk too.....
  15. I objected to the harsh method of delivery.... I'm more than willing to consider carpenter's point.... ok... done.... nope, not for me....
  16. oh my, you live THAT close to heaven?? I fell in love with American Honey, made by wild turkey.... ambrosia for bourbon drinkers...... don't buy the imitations tho.....
  17. hey Pete, did you hear that loud buzzing noise?? perhaps it was Carpenter's saw.....
  18. prayers for richie, as we speak..... I ask for Guidance, Fortitude, and Brotherhood for our brother richie...
  19. constant streaming unwanted video, no doubt..... as a side bar to slow down our connection speed....
