Men are cheats and liars, they?re such a big disgrace, they will tell you anything to get to second baseball, baseball he thinks he?s gonna score, but if you let him go all the way you?re really just a horticulturist studies flowers, geologist studies rocks, all guys really want from you is a place to put his cockroaches, beetles, butterflies and bugs, nothing makes him happier than a juicy pair of jugglers and acrobats, a dancing bear named Chuck, all guys really want to do is forget it no such luck.

i don't know who wwrote that, so let's just say by "Anonymous".

Holotropic Breathwork Work Shop:January 28 Palo Alto, California

i figured some of those those in the california bay area might be interested.

i plan on attending if all goes well.

but, if this compound was the reason for this strange experience i had, then it had to be very, very active.

"A buildup of oxygen in the blood in combination with evocative music and a special set and setting causes the breather to experience a sort of mild trip." that's true, and in my experience, you can get to that space a little on your own, even in an ordinary place, especially if you do "Buddah breathing". thanks, Frankie, for the cool info...

JWs and charitable work

by kj in

i've read on here several times about how jws are discouraged for doing charitable work for anybody other than jws, and that they are discouraged from contributing financially to non-jw charities.

are there some references to this in their literature that someone could point me to?.

also, i had a discussion with a jw about a recent relief effort some jws did in florida.

By the way, no one is discouraged from helping others who are not witnesses. Of course, we are drawn to help those who share our faith and who we love dearly, but that does not prevent us from helping others in need. If you are making a statement that we only help ourselves, then you are shooting from the hip and missing your mark.

c'mon. if you are an active Jehovah's Witness, you know that's not true. if you're not discouraged from helping non-witnesses, are you actively encouraged?

Another thing - as far as the Florida hurricane relief efforts - the witnesses have been able to repair hundreds of roofs in the area, all of them passing the strict inspection codes of the area, so the work is quality work done by clean and friendly individuals. Ever wish you had a group of people like that instead of the guys cursing and screaming lewd jokes at each other on your roof? All of this work is being done while hundreds of homes are still waiting for insurance companies to have someone come to their home and repair their roofs.

i have had a lot of interactions with contractors over the years, from cable company, telephone company and satellite tv technicians to roofers, tilers, painters and plumbers, and none of them were witnesses, and not one of them was ever unclean, rude or used bad language.

forgive me if i missed something, but how do Holotropic Breathwork and LSD fit together in this? confused... i meditate and really know how breathing can completely alter your physical and emotional state, although i've never heard of this.

this sounds really interesting>> Additional elements of the process include focused energy release work and mandala drawing.

i have some sand that i got from a mandala 'demonstration'... i have yet to release it however...
