Puff, you just given us an example of how practice can acquire a skill,
Ya practice of the use of your vocal cords so you don't tear them to shreds. lol

however, some people..the majority but not all was given a strong voice box because it was passed on to them, they are naturally gifted with a great singing voice.

Ya kinda like a plants phenotype right ? So you are saying that not all are equal ... right ??
So you are saying that with training the majority (with strong voice boxes) can sing ? With practice, can sing well ? Right ?
No I don't consider autotune (huh ??) as having a great singing voice. LMAO

Where is the substance? Anybody dependent on needing mind altering drugs to come to grips with reality is one foot out of an asylum.

Dude, No one in their right mind should use drugs to COPE with their reality. Those people end up in an asylum cause they can't digest what they have witnessed. Kinda like you if you ever get your hands on DMT. lol
Perhaps U are thinking of ... meth heads, stoners, alcoholics .... self medicating folk who just want to subside the pain .... as in escapism right ?? Ya them folks usually OD for they know not what they do.

You can get all the mood enhancing drugs you want to feel at ease about reality there.

I never take mood enhancing drugs to feel at ease. I am just fine thank you ! LOL
People who use drugs to feel at ease ... die.
Pleas call your friend Webster and learn what enhancing means. Coffe is an enhancing drug and so is suggar. DMT is present in your body right now.

You are a piece of work (lol). O shit I just tinkled (lmao)
I think you pood and that is what the 'fart smell' in here is all about !

From bitch ass, to we Todd, to shaman...
Hey don't call my girl a bitch ass ... she is right here !
We Todd, ya ... I never forget to be a kid first.
That is my uncle actually, thanks for the compliment I will tell him what U called him .... he will be amused for he is nothing but a chimp.

The people I attract..lmao
You have actually been selected for correction ... and I am playing my part. The first avatar u used was the calling card ... your words of distorted wisdom was second. Perhaps this is your cue ... a friendly nudge to wake up !

Hey Kush ... kinda feel like we are playing ping pong here .... truly nothing to learn.
Cheers

How can I prove there was a past beyond my intial experience, and I'm assuming you mean born? answer = are you serious

Kush, you are trying to win a debate, and this is more like sharing information for me, well it was. But reluctantly you keep making statements that are at most redundant in asking. D.N.A stores all genetic material and information, it's in every cell of your body. Diseases, defined traits, big arms, high I.Q. etc. etc. Yes, your experience adds to the catalog of genetic information that will be passed on, just as the information was passed on to you. I'm not doing this again, Okay we have skills naturally.

btw.... you felt as though I was saying you are 1 step out of an asylum.... pretty much like you felt I was trying to defend myself to your questioning, when I was trying to see what insight you had to give. There are things throughout the book I don't agree with, and he encourages it as well, just as he did with his teachers. I'm starting to sense a little ADD. Follow what is being said slowly next time.

:peace:

How can you even prove there was a past beyond your initial experience?

To say it is definite fact that these things are passed down is lunacy, me one step out of the asylum! We can't even prove there is existence beyond your mind, so lets leave fact to god. And given that reasoning, yes all skills would be natural as you pick them up as your chemical structure interacts with nature. You begin to pick up on patterns and as such are able to anticipate results, skills.

Peace

"The principle of gung fu is not a thing that can be learned, like a science, by fact-finding and instruction in facts. It has to grow spontaneously, like a flower, in a mind free from emotions and desires. The core of this principle of gung fu is "Tao"--the spontaneity of the universe. The word Tao has no exact equivalent in the English language...... I have used the word Truth for it----- the Truth behind gung fu, the Truth that every gung fu practicioner should follow."

It was obvious to the master from the start of the conversation that the professor was not so much interested in learning about Zen as he was in impressing the master with his own opinions and knowledge. As the Zen teacher explained, the learned man would frequently interrupt him with remarks like "Oh, yes, we have that, too" and so on.

Finally, the Zen teacher stopped talking and began to serve tea to the learned man.

He poured the cup full, then kept pouring until the cup over-flowed.


"Enough!" the learned man once more interrupted. "The cup is over full, no more will go in!"


"Indeed, I see" answered the Zen teacher. "Like this cup, you are full of your own opinions and speculations. If you do not first empty your cup, how can you taste my cup of tea?"

Empty your mind of all thoughts.
Let your heart be at peace.
Watch the turmoil of beings,
but contemplate their return.​

Each separate being in the universe
returns to the common source.
Returning to the source is serenity.​

If you don't realize the source,
you stumble in confusion and sorrow.
When you realize where you come from,
you naturally become tolerant,
disinterested, amused,
kindhearted as a grandmother,
dignified as a king.​

Immersed in the wonder of the Tao,
you can deal with whatever life brings you,
and when death comes, you are ready.​

Man have you read the Doa de ding(or Toa te ting) or Toa Teachings. They are really well put together.

Loa Tzu was a wonderfully clever man.

I have it in my archive of collected books. I have browsed it and flip through it when I feel the urge to look at it, but my biggest problem (which isn't really a prob), is that I like to soak up what I'm reading and get a real good understanding of what is being said, and reflect on it. I've been reading "Tao of Physics" now for almost 3mos, something I could finish in about a week or less. Think I need to seriously start buckling down in my down time aka "Chronic Breaks" and go ahead with finishing these books. I also, think I like the idea of there actually being something out there I'm challenged with and interested in learning, so I keep them like little nest eggs, for future enjoyment.

I believe, (or fact, :lol:..inside joke) we all have something to gain and do well to examine ourselves and exorcise Cicero's six failings from our own personality.​


Cicero's Six​



Six Mistakes Men Make:​



  1. Believing that one man can profit by crushing another.
  2. The proclivity people have of worrying about things they can't change​
  3. The tendency people have of insisting that something is "impossible" just because they can't do it, because they can't conceive how such a thing might be accomplished.​
  4. People holding fast to trivial pride, preference, and prejudice.​
  5. The fact that people stop learning and do not continue to hone their minds, particularly by acquiring the habit of reading and studying. And finally,​
  6. People's consistent and insistent attempts to compel others to believe and live as they do.​
Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BCE)

"Nature can never be completely described, for such a description of nature would have to duplicate nature. No name can fully express what it represents. It is nature itself, and not any part abstracted from nature, which is the ultimate source of all that happens, all that comes and goes, begins and ends, is and is not. But to describe nature as the 'ultimate source of all' is still only a description, and such a despcription is not nature itself. Yet since, in order to speak of it, we must use words, we shall have to describe it as 'the ultimate source of all'."Lao Tze

"The intelligent person is like a little child. The child's vitality is intact, the child's existence is harmonious. To enjoy such harmony is to be in accord with nature. To be in accordance with nature is to be achieving the goal of life."
Lao Tze​

The second one is beautiful. I have this one quote somewhere in which Loa describes the 'universe as named the mother of 10,000 things, and as nameless it is the source of all things.' For lack of words to encapsulate the meaning, 'lets just call it the Toa.'

Truly an intellectual revolutionary before his time!

You must accept the fact that there is no help but self-help. For the same reason, I cannot tell you how to "gain" freedom....since freedom exists within you.....I cannot tell you how to "gain" self-knowledge. While I can tell you what not to do, I cannot tell you what you should do, since that would be confining you to a particular approach. Formulas can only inhibit freedom, externally dictated prescriptions only squelch creativity and assure mediocrity. Bear in mind that the freedom that accrues from self-knowledge cannot be acquired through strict adherence to a formula; we do not suddenly "become" free, we simply "are" free. Bruce Lee
