| | [quote=Liam O'Sullivan]Hi, Tom. If you post links, please do so in the spirit of discussing how they have informed your practice, what you have done according to that information, the results of those practices, how the link ties into the ongoing discussions here on DhO, that kind of stuff. Keep it phenomenological if you can. This is a technical forum, after all. Ta muchly.
Maybe I misunderstood, the title of this particular section of the forum is "Books and Websites". So I assumed that the heading meant, post a link and leave it for others to check out if it sounds interesting to them. I'm happy to engage in dialogue concerning the content of the book or whatever, but as I said, I thought this was a links section with no need for further elaboration.
Every link I've posted has relevance to anybody interested in any form of self understanding. If people have too narrow a view of what self understanding means, that's their problem not mine. And I'd say, there are ways to communicate. Name calling or giving orders are not ways to open dialogue. It shows the name caller or one giving orders to be a complete nazi demanding total conformity to their narrow prespective.
I mean if I had to fulfill your set of rules...
1: how they have informed your practice
2: what you have done according to that information
3: the results of those practices
4: how the link ties into the ongoing discussions here on DhO
it could be just a bit ludicrous to say the least, but no being a spoil sport let's do this.
Thought Vibration by W.W. Atkinson.
Rule 1: Helped settle my mind, aided concentration, brought clarity to visualisation skills. Rule 2: Opened up to new possibilities, questions concerning the very nature of life itself. Rule 3: Increased happiness, decreased mind chatter, decreased worries, decreased stress, increased wealth, increased ability to directly help family and friends materially. Rule 4: Everyone on TDO forum is seeking a way towards self understanding or elightenment. Testing such things as meditation or mind power aid that understanding due to the nature of exploring truth. If I find it to work, then I'll work with it. If not, I'll abandon it and communicate why it can't work.
Anyway, every link I've posted can fit into somebody's life on this forum. I do not see why a few should dictate what is suitable and what is not. Say I had a question about aliens, am I not allowed to post that? Say I thought Buddha was an alien and I had supporting evidence, would that be suppressed?
You guys don't know truth, so why act as if you do? |
