[font=century gothic]When you follow daily news, it seems like there is more and more hostility and brutality in the world. But that isn’t necessarily the case, says one of the most popular social thinkers of our time, Jeremy Rifkin. He is the bestselling author of  [/font]The Empathetic Civilization.
He makes the important point, that human beings and maybe other large mammals have so-called mirror neurons in the brain. When we observe other human beings experiencing emotions, such as anger, frustration, sense of rejection, or joy, the same area in our brain lights up as if . . .

Good point Aislinn. I never thought about it that way. I assumed that most people helping, were in fact helping because they wanted to and because they felt obliged to.

Sorry Tombe. You are looking as good as ever. But I was under the impression I was supposed to comment on the crystal and not the brother in that pic.  :lol:

What a miracle and relief for these parents! Just goes to show how strong the survival instinct is!

Lol... will check and see if I can find them again.. ;)

I haven't practiced all the "theory" extensively, but from the people I know with strong facial features, what I've read is fairly accurate and it is also forcing me to connect to people on a more emotional level or based on their facial expressions, pick up what they are truly feeling.
Secrets of Face Reading teaches the basics of categorizing people's facial features into one of five categories: wood, fire, earth, metal, water and also teaches how human behavior is linked to certain facial features, how to communicate with a certain element on his/her own method of communication.
It also goes . . .

Introduction to Sex Magick

"Nothing can cure the soul but the senses, just as nothing can cure the senses but the soul."
Oscar Wilde

Sex magick means using your sexuality in order to work magick. This technique is not new nor outrageous; although usually kept secret many esoteric systems use sexuality for spiritual and magical aims. Examples of such traditions are witchcraft, shamanism, alchemy, Buddhist and Hinduist tantra and ancient Egyptian religion. A probably more known form of sex magick is the ceremonial sexual union of man and woman on the land to ensure a good crop. Their fertility . . .

Cool. I will let you know if I come accross anything weird

I just took some time off to watch a very interesting documentary about LSD called [b]The Beyond Within - LSD[/b] ([url=http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-978009422965092359&hl=en&emb=1#]part1[/url], [url=http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1637990216567018276&hl=en#]part2[/url]) which challenged the way I think about a lot of things.

One guy argued that a lot of the mystical experiences written about in the bible are exactly the same as he experienced LSD while the father and founder of LSD, Albert Hofmann (who accidentally discovered it in a lab) exclaimed that his experience was similar to that of a mental breakdown.

One theologist (who is also a medical doctor) then did a long winding explanation that . . .

[font=inherit]In the many years I've been Heathen I've seen the good and the bad of what our religion has to offer.
