We Got to TRY A LITTLE BIT HARDER



I use to wonder why the right wing is so strong and the liberals so weak and the progressives so marginalized. But I have come to realize that is because the right is always out there working hard to take this country away from everyone else. They are up early and doing what ever it takes as long as it takes. The liberal just want to make nice, feed at the corporate trough and not rock the boat to much. And progressives well, hmm, why are there not more of us?
Janice Joplin tells a story on one of her songs. She says that the chick down stairs is always getting laid. And she isn’t. Janice says the girl is cool but not that cool. So she wants to know her secret. So Janice does something she doesn’t usually do. She gets up early and stakes the girls apartment out. Janice follows her and finds out why she is getting more than Janice.
The secret is that the girl tires harder. So than Joplin sings the truth.” You got to try harder.” I was listening to Steve Jobs of Apple fame and he said something like. “The secret of his success is to build wonderful products that people really want” We have to develop visions that inspires people and live those visions long enough and beautifully enough to inspire people to dance with us.
The liberals vision is weak and corrupt. Look at the Democrats. The right has many visions that they live. Fox is one that came true because they made a media that inspires people even though the inspiration is toxic. Air America went bankrupt. What does that tell you? Listen to Janice.

One Hand Near One Hand Far Healing Technique.

One Hand Near One Hand Far is a very powerful healing technique developed by a chi kung master named Dr Zia Gang Sha. You can find more about him by clicking the tiltle of this entry and it will take you there. I posted this information a couple of years ago but I think it is time to do it again. Start by being aware of the lower dan tien. Move your awareness from lower dan tien to the laboring Palaces. If you have a place in your body that hurts or needs help place one of your hands, we will call this hand the near hand, about 4 to 7 inches away from the painful area. Point your first two fingers of that hand at the painful area. Imagine that energy is flowing from your lower dan tien to the Laboring Palace of the near hand. Then guide the chi from laboring palace out through the two pointing fingers into the area in your body being treated. This is One hand Near. Now take the other hand which we will call the far hand, and place it about 12 to 20 inches from your lower dan tien. Aim ...

Congratulations You Did It!!!

I say this to you my student/teacher/brother. You are of the Hawk and Crow People now. The Hawk and the Crow fly with you, now and forever. I salute you my brother. I salute your courage and determination. Congratulations. I celebrate and sing this song. My student/warrior/friend is out of the hospital and eating. His story can be found in my blog sections "When Pain Comes Try This." and "You Can Cower In The Corner Or You Can Stand And Fight." When he was faced with his own fear and pain and uncertainty he chose to stand and fight. When you must chose, chose to stand and fight. Remember we are never alone. Remember that and smile. He has passed one of his initiations with honor and pride. Many others are doing the same even as you read these words. Let all the warriors of the Heaven and the Earth who stand and fight with honor and determination give you courage and strength when you need it most. Remember, you are not alone and smile. A new adventure now opens to...

Swimming in The Ocean of Chi

This drawing comes from Mantak Chia's webpage: http://www.healing-tao.co.uk/ht_microcosmic_orbit.htm This drawing links to the following: http://www.naturespathcenter.com/pages/Intermclass.html The first thing to do before starting any chi kung practice is to move into a comfortable position. This can be sitting, standing, or reclining. Start to relax all your muscles from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. Regulate your breathing so your belly goes out on the inhale and in on the exhale. Above all else smile. During a chi kung practice try to keep a smile in your heart and let it often flow to your lips. Place smiles in all three dan tiens. Remember to be very kind and patient with yourself. But also remember to stay focused. Of course you will lose focus during the exercises because your mind and emotions will tend to take you away from your intention to practice. When this happens as soon as you notice that you are thinking instead of doing th...
