Can Life Technology Make Me a Cyborg?
I've been sitting on today's woo for a while, wondering what to do with it. It's been so long I don't even remember how I originally found it. It's just been sitting in my favorites. Last week I rediscovered it and decided it was time to break it out, seeing as there's this blog-thing I write at and all. Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to present to you...
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield!
Or, as it looks to me, a bright purple tampon applicator on a keychain. For all the ladies out there that need extra protection, I suppose.
Now, I don't know much about Nikola Tesla, but I seem to remember he did have his problems. Something about eugenics or something. However, the fine people at Life Technology seem to want to make him into a giant woo like the rest of them. Take the following:
[Tesla] sensed the universe was "composed of a symphony of alternating currents with the harmonies played on a vast range of octaves," wrote Margaret Cheney...Tesla understood that the cosmic symphony is resonance. Nothing exists in the Universe that does not have harmonic vibration.See, what I read in that statement, as a non-idiot, is Tesla waxing poetic about the role of energy and probably more specifically electricity in the universe. I could be wrong, but that's how I read it. If anyone who knows more about Tesla can fill us in, please do so in the comments.
In any case, the Violet Violator is, quite frankly, one of the worse cases of nonsense I've ever seen. They say
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ outer shell is made of aluminium, which is first anodised (electrolytic oxidation) and then colored. The spin of the atoms and electrons of the aluminium is thus changed in such a way, that The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ is said to vibrate in resonance with the fundamental energy (Chi, Prana, Orgon) of the universe.Without a flinch. Rather amazing, really. Translated from wooese: "We paint this fucker purple and then say it corresponds to a non-existent energy." I mean, seriously. "Is said to vibrate in resonance with the fundamental energy?" Who says that? Oh, that's right, they do. Next we have a great line:
With anodising, the field of the plating is changed and interacts with tachyons.Yaay! Tachyons! That little hypothetical may-not-even-really exist particle that woos occasionally throw around to make their claims sound more like Star Trek. I bet the Energy Shield has a positronic brain, too.
The chemical composition of the outer purple shell is the same as that of rubies and sapphires, which also consist of aluminium oxide. We know that rubies give energy and thus were called "life-stones" in the Middle-Ages.So...This thing is made of aluminim oxide, like a couple of gems, and because the ignorant masses and alchemists in the middle ages called them "life stones," they "give energy." Do they electrocute people? Do they exert motion under their own power? Are they radioactive? I imagine if they did any of these things, they wouldn't be in such high demand for jewelry.
The idea is, that tachyons pass trough untreated aluminium plates without hindrance. By anodising the surface of the aluminium, they develop a field that slows down tachyons. Thus the aluminium surface gets charged with subtle energy/information.So now the energy is subtle. It is like a sophisticated French wine. And subtle information is an interesting concept. I suppose subtle information is like a good bon mot as opposed to a yo mama joke. So tachyons contain subtle enrgy/information that is imprinted on a little metal thing on your keychain when they pass through it. Got it.
It is widely recognised in the field of quantum physics that each material object and each human being vibrates to an individual frequency of angstrom units (light waves) per second. This is the life force energy responsible for universal harmony and synchronicity . . . the forgotten rainbows and forgotten melodies creating the Oneness of the Universe established by Cleve Backster's Primary Cell perception discoveries.This is like some megawoo. First we have Deepak Chopra's favorite, quantum physics. It is somehow conflated into that strange idea of "universal harmony." And even if its all true and our "individual vibrations," or "vibes (light waves)" are all "harmonious," how does it then follow that our actions will be harmonious? And what the hell does Carl Jung have to do with any of this?
Below this quote, the article goes on to list the benefits of the Purple Punisher. I won't quote them, as the list is long, but I will encapsulate them here to demonstrate that the thing goes from megawoo to at least gigawoo. Every type of woo you can think of is covered by their amazing little toy: energy levels, protection from harm, natural healing, anti-aging, protection from pesky psychic probes (if only Magneto had one he wouldn't have to wear his silly helmet), energized food and water, divine connections, ascension, synchronicity, meditation, chakras, auras, dowsing, radionics, and distance healing. And I love this one:
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ connects to the healing flame of The Ascended Master Saint Germain.Ah, Le Comte de Saint Germain, the 18th century con-artist who convinced naive nobility that he was immortal thanks to the effects of the philosopher's stone, the philosophic mercury which he, and only he, had created and thus gained immortality. Somehow he is now an "ascended master." A brief perusal of his wikipedia article tells me that woos and newagers have apparently created an entirely new story for him wherein he was some sort of mystic magical master with a healing flame. He could fly and was psychic and, synchronicity of synchronicities, they have decided he is associated with purple and amethysts and is "Cosmic Master of the Seventh (violet) Ray," whatever the hell that means.
After this we have testimony from some idiot with a doctorate, and this:
The "Lost Cubit" was discovered in April of 2000 by german astrophysicist Hans Becker. The "Lost" cubit is a previously unknown cubit length which fills a harmonic gap between the "Sacred" and "Royal" cubits of Ancient Egypt. Research and calculations made by Becker indicate that the "Lost" cubit may well have been deliberately omitted from ancient records due to its powerful significance.
What the fuck does that mean? A measure of length has special power? A human construct used to delineate spacial dimensions is magical? And if you know the "Sacred" and "Royal" cubit lengths, what the fuck's so hard about finding the one in between? I swim in a sea of bullshit, and I do it all for you, my readers.
So now the big question? How much for all these miracles? The main page doesn't say; you have to actually add it to your cart before you even find out the price. The Tesla Purple Energy Shield, which is nothing more than purple andonised aluminum, is $269.85 US. Packaging and shipping will run you an additional $24.95. For that price I'd better get it yesterday packaged in a box of gold.
I feel better now that I've posted this. If you have a moment, it couldn't hurt (actually, it might) to browse Life Technology's complete line of products. They're all sorts of fun, but none quite so much as the little miracle do-everything that looks like a tampon applicator.
I think I know what to do now. I'll e-mail them and ask why they haven't taken the Randi challenge. That should be fun.
edit: We had some correspondence, and it can be found here in Part II: "That Was Quick."

If only I had no scruples I could be rich too.
A comment from Les Jenkins. I'm honored.
I've been working on getting rid of those pesky scruples for some time, but damned if all that atheistic immorality just isn't working out for me.
Alas, it's true. My wife has already threatened divorce if I became a psychic...
You should check out Nikolai Tesla, though - fascinating, brilliant, and seriously troubled guy: he fought huge battles with Thomas Edison when he tried to show that AC was a better current for public use than DC, for instance.
You should check out Nikolai Tesla, though - fascinating, brilliant, and seriously troubled guy: he fought huge battles with Thomas Edison when he tried to show that AC was a better current for public use than DC, for instance.
If memory serves, Edison tried to prove AC was bad by using it to electrocute a dog. That didn't go over so well.
Anyways, a bit of clarification of Tesla: He was very big on resonance, electromagnetic and otherwise. For those that don't know, resonance is basically what happens when you drive a system at its natural frquency; it responds a lot more than it does at any other frequency (if it's completely undamped, the response is even infinite).
He used this to come up with one of his most famous inventions: the Tesla Coil. This uses the resonance of large capacitor-inductor circuits, driven by AC current, to force electrons up into a big metal orb on top. They then spew out of this for many cool effects.
So basically, the quote there is saying that he believed everything had its natural frequency, and these frequencies ranged a ton. Not all that far-fetched, as harmonic oscillations are used as a good approximation for almost all systems close to equilibrium.
I bet they're cheaper here
Thanks for the Tesla info, Infophile. For once, when writing this post, I found Wikipedia to be of very little help. But then, when I do use it to great effect, I'm usually looking up episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or the specs on the Nintendo Wii. Those are always full and up-to-date.
And Evan, that is awesome...I wanted to find where else they sold those but never had a moment. And now we know. You can get an andonised purple amethyst Saint Germain healing psychic shield tampon applicator for much cheaper, and without the woo.
*cough* that purple dingus would be a mass-produced pill case, of the sort some folks with heart trouble wear on a chain round the neck for nitroglycerine pills.
Man, I hate charlatans, but charlatans who abuse Tesla's good name I hate with an abiding passion.
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ has been scientifically evaluated and tested by the famous author and paranormal investigator Joshua P Warren of The Discovery Channel
http://shadowboxent.brinkster.net/TeslaShieldReview.html
Sounds like I may have to post another Gone to the Dogs entry. The fact that Discovery has a paranormal investigator is really bad, since they've been having a terrible time even proving their field exists at all.
So, what tests, if any, did this guy perform? Kirlian photography. Proving the silly with the silly.
Thanks for taking that, BD. I was going to just ignore it, but then I was reminded that the first word in the blog is "action." By the time I sat down, there you were, saying just what I was going to say. A bit of embellishment, though:
Joshua P. Warren is a famous author? I had to Google his name just to find out who this guy was. What I found was a "ghost hunter" who has no scientific credentials to speak of. His opinion is therefore as meaningless as his Kirilian Photography tests.
Most anyone who calls themselves a "paranormal investigator" is not a scientist, but more likely a self-proclaimed "psychic" or "demonologist," or even a plumber like those assholes on Ghost Hunters.
In short, the Purple Punisher was not scientifically tested. At most, it was pseudoscientifically looked at with an uncritical eye by someone who has no useful knowledge whatsoever.
These "Telsa Energy Shield" thingies are nothing more than keyring pill vials and can be purchased from the "AMERICAN SCIENCE AND SURPLUS COMPANY" for $3.75 for a package of three. Go to their website and search for item #92287.
The purveyors of the Tesla Purple Energy Shield claim that the magical tachyon-utilizing nonsense they "manufacture" is inside the pill capsule. This despite the website that says that the color purple is part of the magic, that the thing itself is made of andonized blah blah blah blah.
So, yeah, that's their excuse. "Of course it's a pill capsule. The Energy Shield is inside it!"
For those who don't know, anodized just means that the aluminum has an extra thick layer of aluminum oxide to protect it from corrosion. This is also how they get the purple color. Small purple particles are trapped in the crystal structure of the alumina.
Dude, you're way off with this one. "Andonized" means that the aluminum has been treated with tachyons and chi-power so that it provides an extra-strong defense against the dark arts.
It's like a Patronus Charm, really.
Oh right, I forgot that when the 'o' and 'd' are juxtaposed and the 'n' is squared then the cosmological polarity of the world life-web is reversed, causing a flux-resonance in the aluminum and forming dalekanium. The dalekanium acts as a natural conduit for negative chi and dark energies, channeling any attacks against the wearer into the internal tachyon chamber where the tachyon particles form a stasis field to hold the negative energies until they are properly disposed of.
Do these guys offer 'negative energy containment' serivices?
I think so, but they're pretty expensive, and if the EPA turns off their containment center it would cause a supernatural meltdown across the country, eventually summoning Gozar the Gozarian.
Dogs and cats, living together! Mass hysteria!
I need to see the original Ghostbusters again, now that I'm an adult, and thus capable of getting more jokes and paying attention to plots.
You really should. Ghostbusters is, in my humble opinion, one of the finest comedies ever made and one of the most joyously quotable flicks in the history of cinema. I just all-around love it.
And the old Saturday morning cartoon show was pretty good, too, until they over-kiddified it and made it "Slimer! And the Real Ghostbusters." Before that, it was quite dark and serious for a kid's show, and the humor tended to be dark and sardonic, like the movie. We owe J. Michael Strazynski a dect of gratitude for the first 1.5 or so seasons of that show.
I wish they'd release it on DVD.
lol this stuff is hillarious poor tesla getting dragged through the mud by charalatans like these, and at 300 bucks a pop tesla could have afforded not to sue edison for his patents back and just start selling these pieces of crap
next they will put batteries in them , make them vibrate , and add on that they can save your marriage
The best use of the pill fob in question is the hilarious dialog that ensues! I just love it. As soon as I saw this little gem, I realized what a bargain I had on my keychain. I purchased a gold aluminum pill fob at REI at obviously a substantial discount. Let me give this a try: The gold plating becomes a monoatomic form of gold when irradiated with Xfiles video and is superconducting allowing the wearer to escape gravity for PI cycles of the Schuman resonance. Howz that? I'll sell my gold pill fob along with its magical powers for half the going price of the Life Technology miracle unit. Any takers?
I like the "Schumann Resonance" reference
I found that gizmo in a google search on DMT. I think that says something about their product.
You don't actually know anything about quantum physics, do you?
I really need to learn not to be taking a drink of anything, let alone a really fine bottle of merlot while reading your blog.
"you really don't know anything about quantum physics"....
Almost had to clean my keyboard.
Keep 'em on the ropes Akusai.
Sorry about the Merlot.
I didn't think it was that funny.
Congradulations, you have shown you can use the copy/paste function
How does any of that copy-paste in any way support your obvious implication that the Tesla Purple Energy Shield works?
His source, after a single Google search:
http://library.thinkquest.org/3487/qp.html
We really aren't as stupid as you seem to think.
Thanks for playing, though. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Actually, on second thought, go ahead.
sorry I will noy waste more energy trying to convince anyone.
You were trying to convince someone of something? I thought you were just dropping tired old canards.
I don't know why you assume to know what exactly I'm thinking about you when you say I think you as stupid... but oh well people like to make assumptions as if the knew exactly what the other person is thinking.
What I meant by that was you seemed to assume we couldn't recognize a blatant copy-paste when we saw one, or don't know how to use Google to find the original source. Seriously, pasting a primer on QM doesn't in any way demonstrate that you know anything about it, but I cannot but assume the intent of posting anything at all was to make us think you know something about it.
But we're not that stupid.
We are fundamentally in control of our lives. We create reality and affect it at such degree that whatever we CHOOSE to believe is real the mind will make it real.
Your first sentence and your second sentence there do not mean the same thing. Being "fundamentally in control of our lives" (a questionable assertion in itself) does not mean the same thing as "We create reality." Quick note: The Secret is not science. Neither is "What the Bleep Do We Know?"
You experience reality with 5 basic senses and whatever those 5 limited senses can't perceive will tell your mind is not real.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here, but for what it's worth, we have isntruments to detect all sorts of things our "limited senses" cannot, like high and low frequency sound waves, the entire electromagnetic spectrum above and below visible light, radioactivity, dark matter and dark energy, various subatomic particles, etc. and so forth. So no, our five senses are not the limits of perception.
Just because you can't meausure something or interact with it in this dimension, doesn't mean is not real.
You don't know what "dimension" means either. I assume that you're using it, incorrectly, to mean "plane of reality" or somesuch.
If something cannot be sensed, measured, tested, or shown to exist, why the fuck should I in any way even begin to consider the possibility of its existence? Google Sagan's "Dragon in the garage." I know you know how to use Google.
when you are able to understand we live in an infinite universe with infinite possibilities your mind will become free from any boundaries and limitations...
Actually, the universe is not infinite. It is of finite age and size. We even know what shape it is. It is in no way infinite. Also, "infinite possibilities" doesn't mean "anything I can imagine is possible." There are an infinite amount of possible numbers between 0 and 1, but none of them is a unicorn or a square circle. They're all numbers. Things in our universe that break its laws of physics are simply impossible. Infinity doesn't even enter into it.
I can't prove to you the Tesla Shield works, but I can't disprove it either.
I'm not looking for proof. Proof is for math. All I want is some evidence. And if you can't provide me with that, then I have no reason to believe what you say. Just because you can't disprove it doesn't mean it's worth believing. You can't disprove that I'm standing behind you right now with a bucket of water, ready to pour it on you, only I have a magical pendant that makes me invisible, intangible, and soundless. Yet I doubt you believe that.
it will work if you truly believe is works
and it will not work if you don't want to believe
Yes, that's what's know as the placebo effect. Nothing new there.
oh and it will definetly not make you a cyborg that's just ridiculous
That was a bad joke, genius: "Life Technology" = "Bio Technology" = "Cyborg."
Our physical bodies are already a bio-computer where DNA receives and emits information translating into: "reality", eventhough, we live in a hologram that our brains tune in to it, a virtual world that exists within the mind only
What the fuck?
light behaves as a particle when we expect it to behave so but light is also a wave, either way light is both. So we are affecting the way we see the world.
Non sequitur.
we are not just quiet spectators of reality but we are constantly interacting with it, shaping it, molding it according to our own believes (DNA programming)
Then jump out a window and mold your reality to allow you to survive the fall. Go ahead. I'll wait.
to the one who has eyes to see beyond the physical form shall see
a lot of people are aweking to the true nature of reality
Please define this "true nature" in something other than gibberish and then provide evidence that it is, in fact, true.
we are multi-dimensional beings
Yup. Four of 'em, matter of fact.
we are just having a human experience, it's not what we really are, we are infinite consciousness, out of the space-time construct
"Luminous beings are we! Not this crude matter!"
Thanks, Yoda.
free your mind
My mind is so damn free that I will believe literally anything provided it is backed up by decent evidence and rigorous testing. I will change my mind back to front all day if new evidence comes trotting by. I am as open and free as they come.
You, on the other hand, have dedicated yourself to the promulgation of a bunch of ignorant, shallow newage bullshit, and no amount of cotnrary evidence could ever possibly sway your closed, empty mind. I know half-a-dozen very smart people who could, using real science and real evidence, demonstrate conclusively that your shallow, incorrect, pseudoscience-derived understanding of QM is completely and utterly wrong. Outside the people I know personally, there are thousands of scientists who could do the same even better, some of whom were misquoted and misrepresented in the piece of shit "What the Bleep."
But your mind is locked inexorably to your ignorant beliefs, and no matter what people far more knowledgeable than you say about them, you will not change them. That you hold them in the first place, contrary to all established science and evidence, is indicative of that.
Free my mind? Don't insult me, asshole.
ps: btw i didn't copy & paste, that takes to long, I use auto-copy ;)
Ahh, so you can more efficiently reproduce somebody else's writing in order to make yourself look more knowledgeable.
And the worst part? I'm just a layperson with only slightly more than a layperson's understanding of QM, and everything in that page I could have told you myself.
From the woo: You experience reality with 5 basic senses and whatever those 5 limited senses can't perceive will tell your mind is not real.
Sorry, buddy, but I'm quite confident you're maliciously lying, there in an effort to make a stand against wonder, discovery, and cute puppies.
Science has provided us with a myriad of senses. Right now, I'm on a machine that uses a sense for a chunk of the electromagnetic spectrum that's invisible to our built-in sensory array, just to read your inanity. It's called Wi-fi. And that's minor stuff. Just take a look at all the invisible stuff Akusai listed that science has discovered.
Meanwhile, your closed-minded, dogmatic tirades have a constant theme of stuff like that being unattainable. You seem to think that anything beyond our primitive senses is forever unknowable, and falls into the field of "faith." Sorry, but you'll just have to live with heretics like us who insist on asking questions and looking for things with the countless tools at our disposal.
If you want to just sit in a cave full of shadows somewhere, fine. Just don't whine at us for looking beyond your tiny comfort zone. Don't whine at us for insisting that the invisible can be made visible.
Not much to add here, just two points for absolute clarity:
1. Light has both particle and wave behavior all the time; we don't affect it with our wants or desires. We can only measure one or the other kind of property at any given time. It gets a bit more complicated, but trying to explain all the intricacies of the double-slit experiment to this rube would require more effort than I care to spend.
2. And this is the important point, so I'll put it in bold: nothing in Quantum Physics suggests that we create our own universe or anything of that sort. We do not affect the universe with our perceptions, the universe is not the way it is simply because we've been convinced of that (pull your nose out of the Mage: The Ascension sourcebook). The universe is, in fact, the way it is, objectively. Our perceptions do not affect anything. The reason for your misconception (besides the fact that you've listened to too many closed-minded kooks) is that Quantum Physics says that, on a very small level, the act of measuring a system necessarily changes that system. Shining light on things in the macroscopic world won't affect them too much, shining light on things in the subatomic world causes all sorts of changes, thanks to the physical nature of photons and other particles.
Again, there's more to it than that, but it's more complicated still. More succinctly, and in LOLspeak:
Quantum mechanics: ur doin it wrong.
Ghislain,
You have adequately demonstrated here that you have drunk deep of the Kool-Ade of the newage movement. You make assertions with no evidence to back them up. You completely misunderstand science and blend any and every idiot claim made by the newage hucksters into a mess of nonsense. You didn't address a single one of my points, but rather spewed again a shitstorm of fabricated fuck-all.
You'll never convince anyone of anything until you can back it with evidence, reason, and some level of grade-school competence with language. Here's a hint: "3" and "E" are not the same. Sentences begin with a capital letter and end with a period. There are many places within a sentence where a comma is useful and necessary.
If you can't tell, I'm calling you an ignorant, worthless, braindead sack of New Age cliches and utter bullshit. You're a veritable fountain of idiocy. Nothing you say makes any sense whatsoever.
Remember when I said that if you're so convinced that we create our own realities that you should jump off a buiding? The offer still stands.
Remember, you'll only die if you believe in death.
Moron.
I don't take anything personal, you simply can't take anything personal . So I'm not even offended by your statements which reflect a lack of self-esteem and hatred towards humand kind to which you belong to as well(only temporarely, for now).
"I'm not offended! I'm so not offended, I'll go on at length about just how non-offended I am! And then I'll passively aggressively insult you, because you didn't crush my pwecious, delicate feelings at all!"
You know how to tell when someone really cares what you think about them? They tell you how much they don't.
Note: Online petitions are usually worthless. Try finding a physical one to sign. Anyone can sign an online petition multiple times, which devalues them.
All such notions as causation, succession, atoms, primary elements...are all figments of the imagination and manifestations of the mind. -Buddha
Why should we take an argument from authority? Ego-stroking isn't a method of gathering knowledge.
And yet, despite all this "evidence", woos are still scared of performing a simple test under proper protocols.
Her research has important implications for mediumship in the field of communication with the so-called dead,...
I'm still waiting to see a real medium. They've all failed to impress me so far. And they're still running away from controlled tests, last time I checked.
Aura readers and medical diagnostics are tapping into the body's energy fields...
And I have yet to see any of them succeed. Easily testable claims.
...psychics and mediums are able to tune into the discarnate minds of the 'dead', who are actually living on in higher-frequency energy bodies. The brain cannot record these higher frequencies, hence spiritual experiences and dreams cannot be fully integrated into the body and brain, nor is language adequate to describe them.
Sounds like you're trying to make excuses. Look up Carl's Sagan's Dragon in the Garage.
Oh, and show us the math of this "higher frequency energy". Sounds like you're just tacking on terms to make magic sound like sci-fi.
However, attuning to the mind-field which exists outside the physical body and brain can enable us to recall past lives and help us understand the progress of the soul after this life is over.
Don't see any evidence of that ever working. Before you bring up an example, you may want to look at the skeptical response. Woos like you love to bring up old stuff and pretend that it hasn't been rebutted for years.
Valerie Hunt's work is therefore a breakthrough in uniting science and religion by showing that they share the common ground of spirit, mind and energy fields; non-material phenomena that science,thanks to Valerie Hunt and dedicated researchers like her, can now begin to record and measure and so provide proof for the beliefs which religions have held since the dawn of time.
You certainly don't understand scientific methodology. If it does something, it is material. The only way something could be non-material would be if it had no effect on anything.
This is an enthralling, well-written book that scientists, priests, pastors, ministers, theologians, therapists,psychiatrists,doctors, healers and interested lay people should keep with them for the rest of their lives.
I've heard that one before. It usually ends up being fluff and assumptions. Here's a suggestion: Provide good evidence for ONE of these things. Woos love to retreat into fuzzier and fuzzier generalities while avoiding failures of any one thing. That way, when we unleash our curiosity, they can start making excuses as to why they don't have any useful content.
sorry dude, i'm not here to convince anyone, i will not provide you with evidence,...
Then why post anything at all?
...but if evidence is what you are really looking for, ye shall find it, evidence is right in front of you but you can't see it, ;) better luck next time.
I've been looking for quite a long time. Funny that woos never ever get specific about it. They expect me to take their elitist word for it, rather than communicate.
don't believe everything you see or hear, appereances are deceiving.
Exactly why we keep looking deeper and deeper. Woos hate that. Woos only want us to see the surface and to think shallowly.
don't let anyone dictate you what you can or cannot believe.
Exactly my policy. I follow where the evidence leads, not where people say.
you create your own reality. don't allow anyone to create reality for you. you are allowing yourself to be told what to believe by good old science. you trust in it blindly.
You're the one letting people create a fictional reality for you: You're just taking them for their word when they tell you what I believe. And they're dead wrong.
"What does a fish know about the water in which it swims all its life?"
Einstein
Why must you resort to elitism by making appeals to authority? Besides, I don't think Einstein was favoring your defeatism by pointing out the difficulties of not having a different frame of reference. Scientists are in favor of studying the water by creating weird situations. You, on the other hand seem entirely too confident in the impossibility of the act that you just give up on learning about life.
I'm not telling you what to belive because we have the freedom to choose what to believe so don't tell me what I should and shouldn't believe.
That's what you've been doing since you got here, moron!
duh... so you've been looking for evidence for a long time.... and found nothing... what does that tell you?
That there probably isn't any, you shit-for-brains imbecile!
You've done nothing but copy-paste and spew nonsense since you got here, so do us a favor and just shut the fuck up.
You aren't enlightened, you aren't privy to some secret gnosis, you haven't seen something that us closed-minded skeptics just refuse to see. You are stupid. That is all.
You. Are. Stupid.
You are a waste of fucking breath, so fuck off.
Woo says:
I'm not telling you what to belive because we have the freedom to choose what to believe so don't tell me what I should and shouldn't believe.
Translation: Shut up! Never talk about evidence! Never ask questions!
all i'm doing is giving out information, make what you will of it
None of the information supports what you're saying. Also, you're a giant black hole of negativity and defeatism. Just read what you write.
and if you haven't found the evidence you so desire, perhaps you are looking in all the wrong places?
If the people making the claim never talk about the evidence, why should I blindly assume there is any? Has it ever occurred to your closed mind that they might be wrong? Or even worse, lying?
It's the shifting of the blame: It's suddenly supposed to be my fault that the people making the claim haven't found anything and/or have chosen to be uncommunicative.
The Prophecy of Peter Deunov
The prophecy of Peter Deunov regarding the end of our civilization and the beginning of the Golden Age on earth.
Also known under the spiritual name of Beinsa Douno, the Bulgarian Master Peter Deunov (1864-1944) was a being of a very high level of consciousness, at the same time an incomparable musician, that gave during his whole life an example of purity, wisdom, intelligence and creativity. For years he was established close to Sofia where he lived surrounded by numerous disciples, he, by his radiance awakened the spirituality of thousands of souls in Bulgaria as well as the rest of Europe.
Some days before his departure to the other world, he was in a profound mediumistic trance, he made an extraordinary prophecy in regards to our troubled epoch that we are crossing today, a prophecy about the "end of time" and the coming of a new Golden Age of humanity.
Here is this deeply moving testament. It is current and so vibrant that one doubts that these words were spoken almost 60 years ago.
"During the passage of time, the consciousness of man traversed a very long period of obscurity. This phase which the Hindus call "Kali Yuga", is on the verge of ending. We find ourselves today at the frontier between two epochs: that of Kali Yuga and that of the New Era that we are entering.
A gradual improvement is already occurring in the thoughts, sentiments and acts of humans, but everybody will soon be subjugated to divine Fire, that will purify and prepare them in regards to the New Era. Thus man will raise himself to a superior degree of consciousness, indispensable to his entrance to the New Life. That is what one understands by "Ascension".
Some decades will pass before this Fire will come, that will transform the world by bringing it a new moral. This immense wave comes from cosmic space and will inundate the entire earth. All those that attempt to oppose it will be carried off and transferred elsewhere.
Although the inhabitants of this planet do not all find themselves at the same degree of evolution, the new wave will be felt by each one of us. And this transformation will not only touch the Earth, but the ensemble of the entire Cosmos.
The best and only thing that man can do now is to turn towards God and improve himself consciously, to elevate his vibratory level, so as to find himself in harmony with the powerful wave that will soon submerge him.
The Fire of which I speak, that accompanies the new conditions offered to our planet, will rejuvenate, purify, reconstruct everything: the matter will be refined, your hearts will be liberated from anguish, troubles, incertitude, and they will become luminous; everything will be improved, elevated; the thoughts, sentiments and negative acts will be consumed and destroyed.
Your present life is a slavery, a heavy prison. Understand your situation and liberate yourself from it. I tell you this: exit from your prison! It is really sorry to see so much misleading, so much suffering, so much incapacity to understand where one's true happiness lies.
Everything that is around you will soon collapse and disappear. Nothing will be left of this civilization nor its perversity; the entire earth will be shaken and no trace will be left of this erroneous culture that maintains men under the yoke of ignorance. Earthquakes are not only mechanical phenomen, their goal is also to awaken the intellect and the heart of humans, so that they liberate themselves from their errors and their follies and that they understand that they are not the only ones in the universe.
Our solar system is now traversing a region of the Cosmos where a constellation that was destroyed left its mark, its dust. This crossing of a contaminated space is a source of poisoning, not only for the inhabitants of the earth, but for all the inhabitants of the other planets of our galaxy. Only the suns are not affected by the influence of this hostile environment. This region is called "the thirteenth zone"; one also calls it "the zone of contradictions". Our planet was enclosed in this region for thousands of years, but finally we are approaching the exit of this space of darkness and we are on the point of attaining a more spiritual region, where more evolved beings live.
The earth is now following an ascending movement and everyone should force themselves to harmonize with the currents of the ascension. Those who refuse to subjugate themselves to this orientation will lose the advantage of good conditions that are offered in the future to elevate themselves. They will remain behind in evolution and must wait tens of millions of years for the coming of a new ascending wave.
The earth, the solar system, the universe, all are being put in a new direction under the impulsion of Love. Most of you still consider Love as a derisory force, but in reality, it is the greatest of all forces! Money and power continue to be venerated as if the course of your life depended upon it. In the future, all will be subjugated to Love and all will serve it. But it is through suffering and difficulties that the consciousness of man will be awakened.
The terrible predictions of the prophet Daniel written in the bible relate to the epoch that is opening. There will be floods, hurricanes, gigantic fires and earthquakes that will sweep away everything. Blood will flow in abundance. There will be revolutions; terrible explosions will resound in numerous regions of the earth. There where there is earth, water will come, and there where there is water, earth will come. God is Love; yet we are dealing here with a chastisement, a reply by Nature against the crimes perpetrated by man since the night of time against his Mother; the Earth.
After these sufferings, those that will be saved, the elite, will know the Golden Age, harmony and unlimited beauty. Thus keep your peace and your faith when the time comes for suffering and terror, because it is written that not a hair will fall from the head of the just. Don't be discouraged, simply follow your work of personal perfection.
You have no idea of the grandiose future that awaits you. A New Earth will soon see day. In a few decades the work will be less exacting, and each one will have the time to consecrate spiritual, intellectual and artistic activities. The question of rapport between man and woman will be finally resolved in harmony; each one having the possibility of following their aspirations. The relations of couples will be founded on reciprocal respect and esteem. Humans will voyage through the different planes of space and breakthrough intergalactic space. They will study their functioning and will rapidly be able to know the Divine World, to fusion with the Head of the Universe.
The New Era is that of the sixth race. Your predestination is to prepare yourself for it, to welcome it and to live it. The sixth race will build itself around the idea of Fraternity. There will be no more conflicts of personal interests; the single aspiration of each one will be to conform himself to the Law of Love. The sixth race will be that of Love. A new continent will be formed for it. It will emerge from the Pacific, so that the Most High can finally establish His place on this planet.
The founders of this new civilization, I call them "Brothers of Humanity" or also "Children of Love" They will be unshakeable for the good and they will represent a new type of men. Men will form a family, as a large body, and each people will represent an organ in this body. In the new race, Love will manifest in such a perfect manner, that today's man can only have a very vague idea.
The earth will remain a terrain favourable to struggle, but the forces of darkness will retreat and the earth will be liberated from them. Humans seeing that there is no other path will engage themselves to the path of the New Life, that of salvation. In their senseless pride, some will, to the end hope to continue on earth a life that the Divine Order condemns, but each one will finish by understanding that the direction of the world doesn't belong to them.
A new culture will see the light of day, it will rest on three principal foundations: the elevation of woman, the elevation of the meek and humble, and the protection of the rights of man.
The light, the good, and justice will triumph; it is just a question of time. The religions should be purified. Each contains a particle of the Teaching of the Masters of Light, but obscured by the incessant supply of human deviation. All the believers will have to unite and to put themselves in agreement with one principal, that of placing Love as the base of all belief, whatever it may be. Love and Fraternity that is the common base!
The earth will soon be swept by extraordinary rapid waves of Cosmic Electricity. A few decades from now beings who are bad and lead others astray will not be able to support their intensity. They will thus be absorbed by Cosmic Fire that will consume the bad that they possess. Then they will repent because it is written that "each flesh shall glorify God".
Our mother, the earth, will get rid of men that don't accept the New Life. She will reject them like damaged fruit. They will soon not be able to reincarnate on this planet; criminals included. Only those that possess Love in them will remain.
There is not any place on earth that is not dirtied with human or animal blood; she must therefore submit to a purification. And it is for this that certain continents will be immersed while others will surface.
Men do not suspect to what dangers they are menaced by. They continue to pursue futile objectives and to seek pleasure. On the contrary those of the sixth race will be conscious of the dignity of their role and respectful of each one's liberty. They will nourish themselves exclusively from products of the vegetal realm. Their ideas will have the power to circulate freely as the air and light of our days.
The words "If you are not born again." apply to the sixth race. Read Chapter 60 of Isaiah it relates to the coming of the sixth race the Race of Love.
After the Tribulations, men will cease to sin and will find again the path of virtue. The climate of our planet will be moderated everywhere and brutal variations will no longer exist. The air will once again become pure, the same for water. The parasites will disappear. Men will remember their previous incarnations and they will feel the pleasure of noticing that they are finally liberated from their previous condition.
In the same manner that one gets rid of the parasites and dead leaves on the vine, so act the evolved Beings to prepare men to serve the God of Love. They give to them good conditions to grow and to develop themselves, and to those that want to listen to them, they say: "Do not be afraid! Still a little more time and everything will be all right; you are on the good path. May he that wants to enter in the New Culture study, consciously work and prepare."
Thanks to the idea of Fraternity, the earth will become a blessed place, and that will not wait. But before, great sufferings will be sent to awaken the consciousness. Sins accumulated for thousands of years must be redeemed. The ardent wave emanating from On High will contribute in liquidating the karma of peoples.
The liberation can no longer be postponed. Humanity must prepare itself for great trials that are inescapable and are coming to bring an end to egoism.
Under the earth, something extraordinary is preparing itself. A revolution that is grandiose and completely inconceivable will manifest itself soon in nature. God has decided to redress the earth, and He will do it!
It is the end of an epoch; a new order will substitute the old, an order in which Love will reign on earth."
And why should we even read this? If you're not trying to convince us of anything, and you're not going to give us any reason or evidence to trust anything you say (or cut/paste), then why even bother posting that?
y don't u answer teh question, jackass?
Guys, stop poking the woo troll. He's obviously just here to stir up the skeptics.
why r u here? tom
Because I enjoy this blog.
why did u wake up this morning?
Because my alarm went off.
why did u even bother getting up?
Because I had to go to my student teaching gig.
why do u go on in life?
Because there's still more to do and learn, and because I happen to enjoy living.
why did u even bother coming to this blog and post a comment?
I asked first. See, I do want to teach and convince people of things. I do provide evidence and reasons to back up my claims and arguments. I don't say "I'm going to tell you what to do, but I'm not trying to convince you of anything, and I'm not going to give you any reason to listen to me," so coming to this blog to post comments is entirely consistent with my character and reasoning.
With you, on the other hand, it makes no sense. "I'm not trying to convince you of anything, and I'm not going to give you reasons to listen, but I'm still going to talk and give stupid advice."
i can't answer a question i don't have an answer for =P duh
You don't have an answer for "why should we bother to read what you've posted?" You didn't have any purpose in mind when you went to a website, cut an essay, pasted it into the text window, and hit "publish"?
but keep questioning your reality,
It's everyone's reality, G. We all share the same one. Right now, though, I'm questioning your grasp on it.
TGF: Guys, stop poking the woo troll. He's obviously just here to stir up the skeptics.
Yeah, but it's fun. I mean, we've driven away so many trolls, we have to appreciate the ones who stick around, right?
Okay, maybe not. But one last poke can't hurt.
O Great spirit, who made all races,
look kindly upon the whole human family
and take away the arrogance and hatred
which separates us from our brothers.
Cherokee Indian Prayer
(again... make what you will of it)
I did.
Explanation here.
Wow, you're like a bottomless cornucopia of woo, newage babble, and tired, empty platitudes (and misspellings, and lack of punctuation, and improper grammar).
Four words for you: Fuck Don Miguel Ruiz.
Also, fuck The Four Agreements. My mother bought me that book when I graduated high school and it was empty platitudinal bullshit. It's like The Seven Habits for idiot woos.
And fuck Peter Deunov and fuck Golden Ages and 2012 and fuck Cosmic Transitions and the Age of Aquarius and mind-expanding hallucinogens.
And, while I'm at it, fuck the Dalai Lama. Fuck China for being, well, completely evil, and fuck their continued occupation of Tibet, but fuck the Dalai Lama for being nothing more than an orange-robe-clad ambulatory Hallmark card bloviating vapidly in front of crowds of enraptured celebretards while taking their money and living high on the (itinerant) hog, all the while claiming to "work for peace." By doing what? Giving highly-paid lectures? Living it up in America while your valued countrymen are oppressed by China?
Fuck him in his Rolex-wearing, hypocritical ass.
*yawn* thanks yoda, but why must you bring up these tired old irrelivent points? I expect better woo from you Ghi I really do.
now dance for me woo-monkey! dance!
I love it when the morons bust out the "anger" thing.
We should be angry.
Why aren't you?
If you don't know what a woo is, then how do you know you are not one? But you are correct I said you are a woo-monkey, and technically you are a woo-ape.
Also you don't know what infinity means.
you are still on the tired old woo track using words like negative in a meaningless context.
If Tom is right and this is performance art, then these last few pieces have been just terrible. I really think you're capable of producing more novel vapid and prentious statements then the old woo-spew you have been dragging out of the closet of late.
I give your latest post an F-.
i don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell I'm doing here?
I don't belong here
I got a 98% on that on medium in Rock Band once.
Ultimately, I am what I choose to be; my self-esteem follows the same path.
