indeed.

i couldnt do it.(go on a silent retreat)

but i have the common sense to get myself addicted on positive stuff.

but most people of the lazy , soft cock, weak sauce "mode of being" kid themselves that they are going to meditate and seek enlightenment.

they wont.

they often say things like "pursuing money is meaningless" and "i'm so happy now i just chill and smoke a joint and relax".

but its just a rationalisation for their own laziness.

most people sitting around the pool are just lazy and dont want to hustle.
theres the odd guy there who is recharging after a brutal year of hustling.

but most are just in the same durr state, ordering a cocktail to stimulate them and having someone massage them to stimulate them and then going back to the hotel room for stimulating foxtel and then ordering some cheesey fries from room service for more stimulation and on and on

it goes with NOT LISTENING.... Angry

people who are so up themselves never listen to others....they only hear their own voice in their heads....

Come with me Cods.
We'll spend 'weeks' upon a isolated and near empty beach near me. We will frolick in the nude along the beach and in the water. We will eat wallaby with a few aboriginal tribes doing the Happy Holiday festival bbq's for visitors. We will dance the nights away to tribute bands, local endeavours and to the waves at night on a beach around a small fire. Then we will make love under the stars (while I look at the sand Tongue

) and read passages from Keats while we sleep in peace.

to a retreat next year for the silly season.....I am thinking 4 days of no one talking would be wonderful..

any one done that???..

.it has to be stress free...cool... refreshing drinks...no music only maybe water trickling very very quietly , maybe a slave or two with the drink tray or icy poles...no computers or tv or phones...

bliss.

4 days is not enough, dear. You must do at least 10. Jesus did 40!

But do it. This is the only thing in your life worth doing - silence.

But you'll see your mind is never quiet.

these sort of spiritual retreats are good for someone in high vibration energy but for fat steve or fat janeen, i think they are dangerous.

sitting quietly can be a spiritual thing but it looks a lot like apathy to me.

same as sitting round a pool at a resort.

if you are like aquascoot , who works his ass off, then you can enjoy it as the guy who earnt it.

if you are an fattie who is living life in a durr state, then sitting around the pool and being pampered is the last thing you need.

aquascoot could probably benefit from a spa and i might go when i hit 80.

but fat steve and fat janeen (ie 99 % of the population) would benefit more from a boot camp or a bear grylls type experience.

you sir are far too judgemental my point is about giving the MIND a rest.... you judge people by weight seems to me you are the one with huge problems....you just dont recognise them as being important.....

your comment on fat steve and fat janine are nasty and cruel....I have just read a whining complaining letter from Ivan Milat...... poor him built like a mountain climber a muscle bound murderer with the strength of a bear..... fit not fat aqua.....I am sure you commend him...

is his mind in the right place... ooops that never seem to count with you

Then they may be encouraged to seek a higher state of mind, dear.

Read Ecclesiastes. There comes a time in one's evolution when stimulation no longer works. Power, money, luxury, they no longer bring any joy or meaning. It's like an alcoholic who no longer gets a buzz from booze. He's only drinking to hold off the DTs. He knows how pointless it is.

When you reach such a point, you can give up your addiction to the durp state. Yes, the durp state will always be there, lurking, but we can chasten it through observation.

This is what a retreat is for. Very few people give everything up immediately. We take time first to learn what we're up against.

Then, if we progress, we become lighter, happier, freer. If we stick to it, we become unstuck.

Cods has potential, dear, as do you.

Hey Karnal

The difference between men and women.

I come home and want to be brain dead for a while.

The boss comes home and wants to tell me every little detail of her day.

Go to the 2:35 minute mark

Ah, so true. The women's dorm on retreats is always noisy. I've never been on a retreat where the women haven't been told to pull their heads in by the teacher.

Many retreats these days have single rooms. It makes a difference.
