Peake.... And now for something completely on-topic (27-Dec-06  03:42AM Edited:08-Jun-08  02:00PM)

- I will never cease to be of benefit to others in my search for the standout in everything. I grabbed ADAM monitors prior to their deserved popularity, slapped two-time Bush supporters long before it became plain to them that they were utterly and dangerously mistaken, broke the news that resonators benefit from resonance controls, and so on, and so on.

Edit: Sorry, no negativity for you. It has been made gone away.

Of course, if you want the other direction, away from sense objects and the illusions of mind (mind is just another sense and the source of non-lucid dream content, according to the Buddhists and others), this specific edition of the (incomplete) Upanishads is the finest book I've found regarding God and exhortations regarding the search for God.

http://tinyurl.com/4akvl2

If you want to try out the Buddhist techniques for using breath to understand and release emotional knots and begin the path to self-understanding that may lead to God. These techniques are of course, immediately useful. This isn't philosophy, it's a how-to manual regarding growth.

The Path of Emancipation: Talks from a 21-Day Mindfulness Retreat

http://tinyurl.com/4jy4ws

And the great master's talk on non-duality:

Branching Streams flow in the darkness, Zen talks on the Sandokai, Suzuki-roshi

http://tinyurl.com/427p99

Edited out a book because my distrust was confirmed. Read Autobiography of a Yogi instead.

Fixed the margins.

To enjoy!

From my own brief observations, you exhibit anti-social tendencies along with a need to feel recognized or appreciated.

This may be indicative of alienation or abandonment when you were a young child.

You may have been lost at the supermarket, raised by non-paternal parents, siblings or were adopted. Families that frequently relocate can produce this effect by denying a child no opportunity for close bonds with peers.

Do you any of these parallel your own experiences?

You start threads that criticize everyone and then can't handle the pressure in return."

You're right. Unfortunately, so am I:

- If there's any psychology to be done then I would ask this:

What makes a person return to a forum that he obviously doesn't like, to a thread he hasn't been active on for over a YEAR and to challenge a comment so old that it wont show up on the thread anymore ? That must be some pretty pent up angst there.

What sort of person Mike ?

- Beermaster: Someone who is trapped on the same boat as the rest of you, who has to watch you throwing around petrol and play with matches, and needs to shout a warning before it's too late. And who gets to experience the behaviour of those who cannot be told the truth, even to help themselves.

Edit2: Who are the 10+ persons who bought "(very negative book)" when I posted that it was very negative? Amazon's sales count on that item went up FAST when I posted. THIS is who I'm talking about. IT IS YOUR FAULT.

I'll be back in another year and a half to ask after gas prices, the economy, and your hopefully fledgling perception that everything is tied together, and that all acts of ass contribute to the entirety of negativity, and as such, hurt everyone.

Someday you will understand the reason for the golden rule, through Personal Inconvenience. Someday you will understand responsibility to right action. Take the current economic evidence into consideration, if you haven't remembered that I've been warning you since about 2003 that something must be done about BushCo, and about personal behaviour akin to BushCo (which caused them to manifest in the first place). Don't like gas prices? Have you behaved like Bush and friends in any way? Then it's your own fault. Completely. You know this in that small, quiet part of yourselves you don't often refer to. That won't shut up about it being true.

When you are sick of the economy and gas prices and increasing social unrest and change, look into the mirror of your own actions and consider the effect upon the whole. The most negative are the most at fault. Remember =that= when Personal Inconvenience comes calling.

See you in a year, year and a half. Unless you are willfully blind, you know that the trend shall continue as I've been describing it for several years. There are possible exceptions in regard to positive trends vaporizing some of the potential negatives, as we have not invaded Iran, etc. However, change is constant. Listening to me won't matter then. Except to say, the desired result of the process we are undergoing is consciousness regarding taking care of each other.

THAT'll be a change for some poeple...!!!

Remember, look at the pretty picture and know that it is directly your fault. Act like Bush and you increase the energy base they work from. That's how simple the solution is. Act from love and obsolete the problem.

Ban me from TGS and you deprive yourself of the very voice of conscience you may need to survive. Unless you help change the trends through cessation of negative behaviour.

"I'll be back in another year and a half to ask after gas prices, the economy, and your hopefully fledgling perception that everything is tied together, and that all acts of ass contribute to the entirety of negativity, and as such, hurt everyone."

All right, not quite a year or a year and a half but the economy should be evident enough by now to not have to wait any further for comment. This was recently called on television the worst recession since the Great Depression, and we're not done. Gas prices did their deal and are now moderately neutral, which surprises me.

Please consider the above regarding all acts of torches and pitchforks to be in your own worst interest.

Haha.

- Watching and shaking my head in dismay at those utterly unable to perceive or make use of good advice, to their own increasing difficulty, of their own direct responsibility.

People will forgive you for being wrong, but never for being right. Even though they could extract great positive benefit. Congratulation on that! It is really something else to behold. Rarely have I heard of any group fighthing so savagely and absolutely against truth and fact, as TGS'ers have. Applaud yourselves as the bad news continues to pour in. You've earned the applause. And the bad news. Directly.

Like you'll ever get that, even with the facts arrayed in front of you...shall I return for 2012? I have a little hint for you negative types: "Monsters, from the Id.".

Slowly plodding his away on his path, mumbling to himself to an imaginary audience of ney sayers and zealots with whom no possible solace would ever be found but constant turmoil and unrest persists. As the years pass we rember fondly the character we all once loved and respected but the shadow that has befallen him has brought him down to mere ghost of the Peake of winters past.

- Are you somehow unable to read? Last year on May 8, I said that the economy would be a noteworthy issue around a year later, and that I'd be back to confirm it.

"The worst recession since the Great Depression" backs me up a bit. If you cannot accept the facts presented, please refrain from posting in the typical TGS noise fashion. All that does is to reinforce that you have zero to add, and are laughing the laugh of the discomfited. Especially when you are attempting to protest absolute fact.

Then again, absolute fact has long been anathema around here.

Perhaps you =can= read, but are unable to process? Not everyone usual is posting. Perhaps some of you have suffered job loss and/or home foreclosures, and cannot? Many have, and many more will, as thing re-arrange into something sustainable. Save your money.

"You're welcome" for the good advice. I'm certain that you all started saving and investing in gold a year ago, as you should have.

"We miss the old Peake !"

Same old Peake, simply more in touch with the facts, and more authentic to my own voice and perceptions. You don't like the real Peake. Or the truth, which is there, right there, irrefutable.

What sort of people staunchly contest the irrefutable truth? Hmm?

- Sorry, you're perplexed at the statements of spiritual law...I don't expect anyone to take that at face value, but know that they are true. I've used the economic trend synthesis to get your attention, to make that point that if I'm correct in that regard, then you'll have some slight reason to accept that the other information is also true, or at least worthy of consideration.

Quite honestly, it's all good advice, highly useful, and this is quite likely the last thing that I'll need to say here. As the wise man said, you can like it or you cannot like it.

- It is occuring exactly as expected. I need not post here again, yet am obliged to present data for anyone interested, this last time.

The main, empiric principle of the trend is a vast increase in -feedback-. It can also be called -responsibility-. Stay in joy and you'll be good. Ask the Higher Power(s) for help if it's not good.

A touch more empetus regarding my ability to sense and synthesize trends, for those who can see. I am "Fire, Walk With Me" on this site.

If you add that to what has been presented here, especially the first post and my May 2008 posts, then you might be interested in what is happening and what form it will take. Also, my posts here regarding all negative acts increasing the total and effecting all of us. Onward:
