i dont suppose anyone actually went and gave the cows a health exam? i really doubt that they were in any condition to be giving healthy milk to begin with. a typical dairy farm is usually a reeking, filthy, hell-hole with dirty cows on poorly drained concrete, and being fed the weakest of slop because its CHEAPER. i would be thankful for heat treated, sanitized (un)milk as long as places like that continue to operate the way they do.

Re: [Biofuel] Closed-Mindedness (Was Hypnosis as AnesthesiaWasTestimonials as Evidence)
I don't see how skepticism can determine quality. I do agree that claims need to be backed up with sound studies. There has been a lot of studies done wrt to herbs, essential oils, and vitamins. If you examine the track record between drugs and alt remedies you will see that drugs are largely an empty promise, regardless of the studies done prior to their release by the FDA. The FDA is supported by Big Pharma so it is hard to imagine how they can ever be unbiased. And then there's the well known revolving door between the FDA and drug companies. About 200,000 people die each year from drugs that have supposedly been found to be safe. Big Pharma has at anytime thousands of lawsuits to contend with. See: http://www.newstarget.com/019497.html The main idea is that most drugs are dangerous to human health, regardless of the studies saying otherwise. Follow the money. I equate prescription drugs to soda. Both are very heavily promoted, billions of dollars per year, and both are detrimental to health. That said, there are some good drugs, like nootropics, for example. L-Deprenyl, hydergine, piracetum, etc., are actually helpful. Peace, D.

Hi D, Gustl and List...We keep the daily Zen Calendar in plain view. Maybe some funky sayings every now and then, but it does provide some small, daily reminder of our center and source of true vision. Today's quote seems especially apropriate to this post: "Beginners, make your will firm and strong; twenty-four hours a day, wield the sword of positive energy to overcome demons and curses, cutting off psychological afflictions. Look continuously into a saying, and you will spontaneously discover the light of mind, containing heaven and earth, every land completely revealed."-- Chien-Ju. I don't know who was Chien-Ju, but it doesn't matter. The substance of the words are the point. Hope this helps. Mike DuPree - Original Message - From: "D.

Re: [Biofuel] Closed-Mindedness (Was Hypnosis as AnesthesiaWasTestimonials as Evidence)
Mike, I think you're referring to the twisted use of science by corporations being the objective force slowly destroying the planet. I agree. (Disclaimer: Science itself is innocent being merely a method.) WRT the connection of all things, you're referring to the Unity experience, that we're all One. I think unless a person meditates regularly and eventually experiences the epiphany (satori) of Oneness, that he/she will have a hard time accepting the idea of all being connected. Perhaps someone well-versed in the new quantum physics, like a Brian Greene, http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/greene.html will be able to come to this conclusion without the benefit of meditation. I think that meditation should be taught to all kids in schools here in the U.S. and world-wide. It is non-religious, leads to very sharp minds, and makes the desire for peace bloom. Once kids each deeply realize that we're connected to every other person on the planet, every animal, every flower, and every drop of water, etc., living in harmony with all peoples and the planet will follow naturally and very quickly.

Your words ring true...true...with me nonetheless. Thank you. To "Michael" and "Bob" and whomever has decided to be strictly "scientific" in the sense that the "scientific" might exclude the "mystical" or, more specifically, what can only be verified subjectively: Will you doubt that everything is connected? If you will, enjoy your masturbation. If you will not, then what might be the implications? What might be not only the probabilities but also the possibilities? Our world is constantly subjected...subjected...to the objective for purely, I am convinced, selfish purposes. But, if you have accepted that all is connected, then the objective must be an illusion. So now what? I don't know...but I want to know. The objective path has led our world to ruin. Consequently, I am personally disinclined to allow my personal history to be a repeat of this unexamined history. Whether or not anyone else does, somehow I don't believe it really matters...because we are all connected, not just with each other, but with every star and the void that engulfs them, not just now, but forever now. Perhaps one day our schools will devote a portion of the curriculum to that whereby we are all connected. Classrooms of extreme quietude, whereby each individual is awakened in meditation. Perhaps these classrooms exist already, as I'm sure they must. When they become public, however, then we will know that what is true has broken through the void in some fundamental way perhaps never known throughout the universe. Maybe that will happen here on planet earth...maybe it is happening already elsewhere, although somehow I doubt it because when it does, the universe will have somehow fundamentally changed and become something it has never been before, another step in the real evolution, the evolution of consciousness and curiosity.

Re: [Biofuel] Closed-Mindedness (Was Hypnosis as AnesthesiaWasTestimonials as Evidence)
Hi Marylynn, Some do volunteer to be tested. I saw one woman, a psychic, from California in a documentary, I think on the Learning Channel. Anyway, she was filmed for the test. She was presented a person with a disease. That is all she knew. First she located the area of the disease. It was in the abdomen and she found the diseased area quickly. It was a cancerous tumor. Then she worked on the area using energy techniques (Reiki, Qi Gong?). The camera switched over to infrared. As she worked on the man, you could see the tumor shrinking. She did not touch the man. Within an hour the tumor had essentially disappeared. This is not science but it was very dramatic. This documentary was filmed in Japan, I believe. I don't remember the woman's name. Maybe someone else has details on this? It was perhaps three or four years ago when I saw this. I think being sick with a dis-ease happens to get our attention & to teach us something. Peace, D.

Re: [Biofuel] Closed-Mindedness (Was Hypnosis as AnesthesiaWasTestimonials as Evidence)
Anyone who "looks and listens" at what is daily offered will have a life full of wonders and with wonders there comes something called gratitude for being even momentarily allowed to witness/experience that particular gift. But it's been my observation to observe that many people do not and/or can not accept what is placed before them. They do not and/or can not accept for a variety of reasons .. these reasons range from truly not being able to see/hear all the way to having placed their being-ness (other wo/men's opinions of him/her) into such a compromised situation that to acknowledge the existence of that "gift" would acknowledge their very life has been based upon lies/partial truths/and/or out right deceit. This, of course, would also include having built a life on a particular "truth". Defending that life/truth would become necessary even if that life/truth were flawed .. it is a very courageous act that the physical form (human) that can say to their world .. opps .. I was mistaken. But, there have been a few. While I haven't read this book, I will consider it when I make out my next list .. so not understanding exactly what is encompassed under that title of "morphic fields", I will say that while I do not consider myself a "telepathic animal communicator", I believe anyone who works with any given field "grows" and/or enhances their subtle "awareness" within those areas. .. I work with animals so sometimes I "just get it", but if I need specific detailed information I'll go to those I happen to know have true talent down to the fine toning and are "for real". Because I do accept these areas as being helpful I have, with the help of talented communicator and a dog been able to find poison that was known to be near a children's playing field (within 500 feet), and thanks to the dog we got it. For those not familiar with "telepathic animal communication" this skill is absolutely wonderful with autistic and comma. I also work with a group of talented people who do things like "map dowsing" .. and can and do work with those law enforcement agencies that don't want to rush out and arrest someone in the midwest, canada, or india for a murder that took place in london .. but these people can/and do provide GPS data for missing people, dead/alive, people lost in snow storms. I tend to go with what works .. I guess that's why I like biofuel .. I consider me a "jack of many trades" but because I do what I do, I generally know where to find the "Masters". I'll chose to go mentally .. if possible .. into the snow storm and locate and rescue those who may be facing extreme difficulty if not more .. I'll chose to go mentally into other situations when I can. .. I can only hope that those "skeptics" do not jeopardise lives while waiting to prove and/or understand exactly "how" it works .. because with what they are working with, they will not be able to understand. If those who wish to prove it's NOT possible and/or want to spend some time trying to figure out the what and why of the whole thing ..sorry, there is usually a time constraint going on here .. You simply need get out of the way. .. and before it's asked .. no one I know will sit down and be tested because someone else wants to know if it works.

Re: [Biofuel] Closed-Mindedness (Was Hypnosis as AnesthesiaWasTestimonials as Evidence)
Yo Mike, I'm a night owl. I go to bed at dawn. Four years working rotating shifts as a weather forecaster has totally screwed up whatever body clock I had. I was a preemie and the lights were on all the time. That was the first assault on my body clock. Bob is Bob (did Joe say that first?) is all I can say. He doesn't seem to give much credence to people's experience or opinions based on experience and at the same time he has too much faith in science. These are my opinions and I know they don't adequately express what is percolating in the back of my head. But I do like Bob. I think he does help us as we try to formulate our beliefs and feelings in things far more important than scientific data. Peace, D.
