An Informative article on the collapsing economic sytem as we know it today.

 

My guess is 2012 would be the year of the collapse of the American dream of conquering the world

by means of greed , money and power. The battles that would ensue would be a spectacle of a lifetime.

 

I am ready for it are you ?

I am not at all surprised that junk food manufacturers do put certain chemicals in their junk food
for people to come back to buy the same thing again and again. MSG is one of them and most of these
things make people crave the junk food. Even Maggi has MSG.. all created to make people more and more
dependant on their products which are neither nutritious nor that tasty and nor enviornment freindly !

@CodeX : You are losing faith in Christianity because it doesnt provide the final answers to questions based on logic. We live in an age of reason and want to have all our questions have answered so that we can live a life of truth and bliss. Clearly monotheism defined by the Abrahmic religions is not monotheism but I would call it cult Worship. Monothesim is for the ultimate reality which we call in Hinduism Brahman. It is has no attributes no description and of course it has no voice that comes through a light etc Brahman is IT IS. An Example would be : when you are sitting on a park bench and seeing a ant crawl and you get engrossed in it's activities and forget time etc .. that is the sort of Brahman. Just there. There is no going in or going out of Brahman it is always existed and yet never existed also. Manifestations of BRahman are seen everywhere but Brahman has no attributes. The God of Abrahamic religions is a demi God because it hasnt talked about Karma and many other higher points of this universe which a final God would be expected to say. Instead these Gods are talking about tribes and them and You.. ahaha what frivolus thing to talk about for God who is the highest authority.

We both know that taking on a purely archaeological point of view is not only illogical but impratical.

Why is it illogical.Infact archaelogical proof is taken as a measuring stick to prove by the Church to prove that Lord Rama existed or not. Oh so you mean such a yardstick is for non -christian entities ?
Clearly then you must admit that Lord Rama existed because his records are much more in depth than that of Jesus but still the western
biased christians like to say oh your diety is just a myth and ours is true. I have more proof of Krishna who existed in3100 BC than Jesus. Entire cities have been found under water at Dwarka.
The Entire astronomical data in mahabharata has been correlated to the times mentioned in Mahabharatha. Works of Krishna himself i.e. the Bhagavat Gita have existed which
is the best divine book one can get. SO then why is that such other non - christian people are put into the strict scrutiny of Archaelogy and Jesus is exists even though not a single shred
of evidence has been found if he existed ? Do you agree based on your logic that books are historically written are proof enough of a person then do you belive that Lord Krishna existed ?

For if the very objects mentioned in any writing required archaeological verification, then the majority of what is written today would be labeled as myths; history class could then be mythology, the study of myths.

It is about which side you are . Since you dont have a good argument for Jesus to have existed you say that majority of what are myths are history. Clearly you dont provide evidence for his existence other than Christian
sources which are as reliable as trusting a jungle shaman for his claims to be 5000yrs old.

Not being able to see logic does not depend on whether your are a believe in Jesus or not. And you need to do your homework concerning when the Gospels were written (composed).

believing in what Jesus said is different than logic. I have said i believe in what Jesus said as i also belive in what
bahais have sid or Muhammad has said. Jesus did not say anything new it was already said by Buddha in much more logical and truthful manner. I dont need to do any homework for gospels
as i go for logic not for reading infinite views on gospels. Gospels written 100yrs later or at the time of Jesus doesnt prove Jesus existed archaelogically or logically.

yes i also totally agree to Opaque that we live in age of information from the information frame of reference. One can also say we are living also in age of pollution becoz pollution levels are so high in cities , soil , water , rivers etc .. that we may say we are living in the age pollution.therefore i belive the frame of reference is important to give an objective meaning to the question.

So, what is it that makes you you?

You have asked the fundamental question : what is you ? . If one says You is your body and mind then we have answered
it from a materialistic point of view which sees matter as different entities. But when looked from the Vedantic point of view
it is a deception created by the self or God or nature to fool us to belive it.

The ultimate realisation comes with the concept of self dissolving which gives a lof happiness.
That is why we have surrender to God terms etc . All of them trying the Self /Ego to belive that
you are not the self but there is something that is more than one self and has to be submitted to. Of course this is
the Dual perspective of Self. In the oneness perspective , Self is no different than You or there is No I and YOU.
Everything is You and that is the ultimate state of Bliss and Truth.

well the home page of your site is opening properly, only that page is not opening. so that's mean the error is in that site not in the forum i guess.

Ok I get it web_designer... it is odd and found such a thing happening first time.
Could you read the article and what have you got to say of this ?
the spill keeps happening but think of the billions of tonnes of smoke that is spurned out
everyday by USING these fuels. Noone talks about them as it has become "normal "
and "essential". I personally would laugh at the few little drops of poison being put in the ocean compared to
the huge drums of same poison being burned day and night to keep humans comfy at homes !

Fossil fuel is a black evil for earth and black gold for a few hungry and greedy humans.

From archaelogical point of view , Jesus doesnt exist. This is the logic applied to all so called Mythologies. Jesus is no exception.Ashoka the great was considered to be a mythical figure till the british found the iron pillar and many other edicts with his name and charateristics and hence he is now a historical figure.Jesus Doesnt have any archaelogical evidence to prove that he existed. Most of the so called reliable sources of Jesus are the Gospels or the Bible wbut which have been written by belivers. With belivers , things can become nastyas they tend not to see logic but are based on faith on Jesus. The Gospels too were composed 300 yrs later than Jesus died. And that too Jesus is so recent in history and still no proof of him makes one think why are the archaelogical remains associated with him buried or did he really not exist. As for me , I think he existed but unless archaeolgical evidence is found , i dont think any society /humanshould accept the Historical Jesus. One cant have separate laws for Western mythology and eastern ones.

Hey thanks a lot for that Simpleton. I think i shall not put the signature now as it seems a little strict and people dont like it here. I shall stay for the moderator rules and shall keep coming back for the Xisto that we all need !

hey just checked and it seems the page is not opening ... is there an issue with the forums ? It opens up properly on

the website here : http://www.theonion.com/

 

One can see the news for the BP *BLEEP* at the home page listed above.

Oh sorry for the broken link ... it got shifted from that url .. here is the one from the same

website that is working : theonion.-from-bp.

Hi Everyone !

 

this is a nice bit of sarcasm for the smokers with the Cowboy gun in hand !

with such a spillover , who has to pay ? the life lost ? 100 more of such spills should happen and then our oceans will be a oil muck !http://www.theonion.com/article/massive-flow-of-*BLEEP*-continues-to-gush-from-bp-17564
I hope this oil technolgy goes out and replaces by the sun , wind and water .. why is it that such huge energy requirements are needed in the first place ?

I think it would depend upon it's nature. Sun is fiery and like a rider which has male characteristics. The moon being nimble and gracious and easy to look gives it a feminish outlookOfcourse many like in hinduism consider moon to be a God and hence male.In the deeper sense , in every person there are qualities of both and still some which they dont share also.Also in hinduism , all Gods and Goddesses are taken as pairs of individuals which makes them unity.For me the moon and sun and all are both. Nothing is black or white or male or female in the sphere of logic but when looked artistically .. mmm .. would go with moon being female and sun being male

will power to me means discipline. discipline against the things that don't have any rational thought to them....like cravings or emotions, etc... i think in some ways, it also means patience. i think if you are disciplined and patient, it created a stronger will power among other things which allow you to become stronger in the things you set your mind to do.

Yes that seems true as it means discipline and the power of will or our aims that we follow up with actions.
Literal meaning has to be discipline.

I feel one can live anywhere and can call it heaven. It is upto the same person. Ofocurse there are conditions to be happy : Like nature , good water and good friends and good food. But all of this is subjective as a person's nature decides what kind of happiness he/she needs. A person would imagine to be a place with river streams and nice flowers around and nothing to worry about or one may take heaven as nice home facing the sea and being with a family always happy and enjoying without much to worry and earn. It depends upon the person and hence it is subjective but some basic conditions are needed for the person like clean environment/nature etc to make one feel happier and in turn go towards heaven . What is heaven .. nothing but a state of mind where all seems blissful.

@web_designer : Thank you for the welcome. I hope to contribute constructively to the knowledge bank here and have fun also while being in the forum @kobra500 : Thanks a lot for the welcome. I shall adhere to the rules though not having a signature is too strict i guess ... My signature just says : Eti Shubham : Let there be goodness :DIt is neutral and is universal i believe. But if this forum doesnt allow that then I shall have it removed from my signature.Eti Shubham,Sukhi

Baba Ramdev seems to be talking about Indian politics. He is entering Politics too and going to contest 2014 elections through his followers. He himself will not be contesting as he is a baba heheh. But when we have someone like him taking a bold step to be part of politics , i belive there is hope. He is doing all the right moves , he is on TV , getting youth involved , having many ayurvedic products in the market , teaching Yoga for free to millions for free. He is attacking this evil system where it needs to be punched the most. I hope he gets sucess and he does what he says !

Having travelled all over India only till now , my favorite place in India is Himalayas. They are just endless and one life is less to explore them fully. Our side India would want to see the Masai Mara and London

Touch therapy works as it is one the basic ways of showing affection !A little kitten is on our porch and she comes and rubs my feet and all the meeeeeewing .. it feels less stressful due to the touch and the fact that the little bugger doesnt bite me !!

@Thomas : What you are experiencing is normal. After a few weeks of exercise , the muscles start building up and the body tries to store more fat as it " believes " thatit is in dire situation and hence need to store more fats. Keep going with the routine. I used to do 15mins running but now being a lazy boy and do more parallel bar and SuryaNamaskar. Shall run tomorrow morning !!

I use Way2sms and it works good !!

Hi All !I found this forum while browsing on the net and it seems to have crap content .. kidding !! .. it looks a little different from others as there are some strict rules for the posts that are made.Oh ! i am here from India to explore the Sutra of Knowledge and contribute some things during my routine life :)Eti Shubham,Sukhi

Most of the time novelists and filmmakers do take content or inspiration from other works. that is how it goes on i belive. We had warcraft ( Game )heroes also had many of it's characters taken from cartoon movies of yesteryears..but taking out direct passages from other's works i would count as plagiarism Eti Shubham,Sukhi

I think that it is possible to have unlimited evolutions as there are unlimited permutations and combinations to the matter and energy world. Physics is discovery of the laws of nature and we do not know the law behind the nature. Thus Evolution must be unlimited as if it is limited then the nature is also limited and hence we have a paradox here ! Eti Shubham,Sukhi
