Full Text Of The Grim Meathook Future Thing | Zenarchery I think the problem is that the future, maybe for the first time since WWII, lies on the far side of an event horizon for us, because there are so many futures possible. There’s the wetware future, the hardware future, the transhumanist future, the post-rationalist (aka fundamentalist) future. And then there’s the future where everything just sort of keeps going on the way it has, with incremental changes, and technology is no longer the deciding factor in things. You don’t need high tech to change the world; you need Semtex and guns that were designed by a Russian soldier fifty-odd years ago. Meanwhile, most of the people with any genuine opportunity or ability to effect global change are too busy patting each other on the back at conventions and blue-skying goofy social networking tools that are essentially useless to 95% of the world’s population, who live within fifteen feet of everyone they’ve ever known and have no need to track their fuck buddies with GPS systems.

Philcrasturbation Everything the internet was never intended to be used for... Posted by Phil Follow us on Activating Your Pineal Gland Having trouble meditating, or remembering your dreams, or just feeling lost and disconnected from the Source? The problem may be a blocked (or calcified) pineal gland. The pineal gland, referred to as the Third Eye, the Eye of Horus or the Seat of the Soul, is a small pine cone shaped organ inside your brain that secretes hormones like melatonin, serotonin and DMT (Dimethyltryptamine), also known as the Spirit Molecule. Melatonin and serotonin are responsible for sleep or meditative states, and emotional states of well-being, bliss and euphoria. DMT effects range from time dilation, time travel, journeys to paranormal realms to encounters with spiritual beings from other dimensions. On the energy level, the pineal gland is the physical manifestation of the 6th Chakra – Ajna, associated with true mystic potential, perception of non-physical reality and spiritual wisdom. Because of its pine cone shape, the pineal gland is often symbolized by a pine cone. • Fluoride in toothpaste and in water

WHAT COLOR IS YOUR JESUS? I recently listened to an interview with Bruce Sanguin and Rev. Kelly Isola in which Sanguin talked about how he’s applying the Spiral Dynamics model of human development to explain why Jesus means so many different things to so many different people. I have been a fan of Spiral Dynamics for quite some time. Spiral Dynamics is a theory of human development introduced in the 1996 book by Don Beck and Chris Cowan which was based on the work of professor Clare W. Graves. This theory explores the process of human emergence and how living systems evolve, grow and change. The following diagram illustrates the different levels of development and their associated characteristics: In his book The Emerging Church, Sanguin applies these stages to how Christians see Christ. Purple--Christ is the Tribal Christ. Red--The Warrior Christ. Turquoise-The Mystical Christ. I can see my own journey reflected in this spiral. To disregard any level of development leads to rigidity and lack of growth.
Four Ways Mindfulness Can Make You a More Successful Entrepreneur | Dr. Elise Bialylew My path to becoming a social entrepreneur was an accidental one. I had spent many years as a doctor specialising in the field of psychiatry. In order to manage the stress of my work, I turned to meditation. It took a while before I was sold on it. Our minds are our most precious resource; they are the source of happiness or depression, creativity or self-destruction, problem-solving or problem-making. Like many people who are driven to create and make things happen, I used to wonder why anyone would "just sit there" doing meditation. Three years ago I created Mindful in May, a global online meditation campaign that both teaches people how to meditate and raises money to build clean water wells in developing countries. Mindfulness has supported me along the path to becoming an accidental social entrepreneur. 1. Meditation creates an oasis of quiet, which gives the mind space to decompress at a time of information and technology overload. 2. 3. 4.
