GIS for Tolle in general is frightening.. he has one of those strangely flaccid, saggy buddha-like faces that seem so... culty.

"By learning a few simple techniques, you can alter your destiny."

Isn't everybody's destiny to die and be forgotten? What techniques does the Silva Method offer to alter that?

I haven't read this thread but when I was in HK this guy was all over the billboards

reproduction and the creation of immortal art xp

I love how Silva Method dude's videos are all coooool glitchy ambient techno, and white-tunnel FX to emulate LIFE AFTER DEATH MANNNN

immortal art

no such thing FYI.

btw has anyone mentioned http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_(1995_film)

it seems apposite

close enough? http://www.damninteresting.com/this-place-is-not-a-place-of-honor/ xp

Ooh that looks interesting, though I'd get frustrated at her I think. Also reminds me of those ppl who think threads grow out of their skin but thats going way off topic.

pretty low-rent, ladies.

"Gonna make a chance!" sounds like something Homsar would say

it's good for children to have fears so they don't grow up and get run over by a train.

god i just want to find some way to crush these people and remind them of our shared and complete insignificance. starting with the kids.

weird uncomfortable passive-aggressive interlude from his girlfriend who clearly wants to get married to him

i think what ppl might be missing on this thread, is that all of this shit, ALL OF IT (or at least all of the shit i find the most fascinating) is about ponzi-style affiliate link selling and weirdo SEO shit underneath a veneer of "awesomeness"

(maybe you're not missing it, but when you veer to "actual" self-actualization stuff it's getting away from what i find the really unique thing going on here)

so its not about harnessing my hidden potential by tapping into the unused psychic energy powering the cosmos

question mark

does anyone actually make money from affiliate-SEO-link-baiting whatever stuff? and if so, who do they make the money from? where does this SEO money come from?

have you ever gone on a date w/ someone who you knew was a terrible match, but they were very pretty to look at?

i just laughed @ her bad joke b/c shes hot :(

in the valley of the mind

ponzi-style affiliate link selling and weirdo SEO shit underneath a veneer of "awesomeness"

No yeah I spotted that with all those fake wordpress blogs someone posted and the guy with his business "expanding and contratcing" and etc - its just weird cybergrifting innit. It is fascinating that there is so much of this - surely the centre cannot hold?

i think the elitism and appeals to elitism are my favorite part tbh
