YIN YANG YUAN CHROMOSOME SETS: Epigenetic molecules, homosexuality.

She is said to have been possessed when she was a sixteen-year-old school girl at St. Michael’s Mission in Natal, South Africa. The girl was an orphan of African origin and was baptised as an infant. At the age of sixteen, the girl made a pact with Satan and this is said to be the cause of her demonic possession. Clara later revealed this information to her confessor, Father Hörner Erasmus. In an account written by a nun, Clara was said to be able to speak languages of which she had no previous knowledge. This fact was also witnessed by others, who recorded that she “understood Polish, German, French and all other languages.” The nun reported that Clara demonstrated clairvoyance by revealing the most intimate secrets and transgressions of people with whom she had no contact. Moreover, Clara could not bear the presence of blessed objects and seemed imbued with extraordinary strength and ferocity, often hurling nuns about the convent rooms and beating them up. The nun reported that the girl’s cries had a savage bestiality that astonished those around her.

I’s special situation where the occult provocation is more or less only about making the subject upset, frustrated and angry.

Sorry but in my opinion Michael Winn’s posting is about bhakti yoga marga.

So that’s only relatively small parcel of the whole.

COMRADE HOWDY

The Tao Te Ching, Daodejing, or Dao De Jing (simplified Chinese: µÀµÂ¾­; traditional Chinese: µÀµÂ½›; pinyin: D¨¤od¨¦j¨©ng), also simply referred to as the Laozi (Chinese: ÀÏ×Ó; pinyin: L¨£oz¨«), is a Chinese classic text. According to tradition, it was written around 6th century BC by the sage Laozi (or Lao Tzu, Chinese: ÀÏ×Ó; pinyin: L¨£oz¨«, literally meaning “Old Master”), a record-keeper at the Zhou dynasty court, by whose name the text is known in China. The text’s true authorship and date of composition or compilation are still debated, although the oldest excavated text dates back to the late 4th century BC.

Sorry for my broken English.

Theoretically mathematics and physics are more important than any ancient philosophy.

Also there is no coherent creed and lifestyle as supposedly being Taoist.

This should be clear already with very superficial study of that ancient Taoist book.

Sorry, but I think this kind of personal judgements are in the end without any special value.

I’m very sympathetic to Steven’s post and have, on occasion, been tempted to write something similar.

Most of your posts strike me as, at best, tangentially related to the subject under discussion. Further, they come across as pretty incoherent – usually a string of quotes, often about Hinduism and/or Buddhism.

If Hinduism, Buddhism, maths and physics are your main interests and you have little interest in Taoism, then I’m curious as to why you’re posting here…and in such quantities?

Or do you regard yourself as on some mission to save souls and correct Taoist misunderstanding? If so, you’re doing an exceptionally poor job. If you want to critique Taoism/Healing Tao, you should at least ensure your posts are coherent and clear. Because, at the moment, they are IMHO neither.
