Deep Meditation the Easy Way
by D wiltshire in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
over the last few weeks i've been using different cds that use sound to induce certain brain wave frequencies, the experience is truly very relaxing, to say the least.. these cd's induce alpha, theta, and delta brain waves.

many years ago i tried to meditate deeply but never got too deeply into a trance state, the cds however are very easy to use and work surprisingly well.. if you want a to buy them click on this http://www.brainsync.com .

one tape i have that very good imo is "deep meditation".. any experiences?.

JW's in hell?
by Preston in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
what do you think, if there is a hell, do you think jw's are going.

i know (because of my lifestyle) if there is a hell i have a good chance of going, although the idea of spending an eternity with god's supposed people doesn't sound too thrilling, in which case i better practice a life of celibacy.

i don't know what brought this post up, my friend just played me a clip from a south park episode where all the devout chrisitians go to hell, including jehovah's witnesses, and all the good mormons get spared (kinda funny in a strange sort of way).

by Quotes in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i've seen it mentioned many times in many threads: "the society monitors jwd, don't post anything you don't want them to know etc.

i have even made that point myself in the past.. my question is this: does the wtbts monitor this discussion board?.

or have we all been propagating our own xjw urban myth?.

WT 15 June - Approves of Internet?
by Nemesis in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i just noticed this in the latest mags (15 june, 2002, see picture below) on the top box: if we want .

a concordance to the bible, we can find no better than the internet.. im just wondering if this will lead more witnesses to indulge in some web surfing, with the inevitable consequences of them coming across some critical matter?
