Happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance! And actually it was
celebrated early here tonight at MUN (Memorial University of
Newfoundland) and I was going to go and get a moon cake but
didn’t realize you had to register in advance, and it was sold out.

Since I am of celtic background I also wish you a happy Mabon
(from Mabon ap Modron). I will celebrate it tomorrow night
by going to a special concert by Colleen Power and her band
at The Black Sheep Pub from 7 to 10 p.m.

Now here are some loose ends from the long thread mostly
by me entitled “one FINAL attempt” on alt.philosophy.taoism
and four other groups.

First, I said that sex workers would have to find a new line
of work. I have been assured that they have been taken
care of in the healing circle prescriptions. But the same
might not be true for gold diggers.

Second, at one point I said that the species balance was
on and included a very strong bias against killing within
one’s own species, including against suicide. But
then after that, yesterday, I think a man in Germany
threw his baby off a high rise and then jumped off
himself.

But then at 2:51 a.m. NDT (0521 UTC/GMT) Sept. 21, 2018
I wrote in my notebook that “tonight I have had several
buzzes indicating that more stuff had come on after a
delay”. I think that included the species balance,
healing circle prescriptions, and funnel. In any
case the species balance wasn’t on until after the
above-mentioned murder+suicide. And I know I
said I wouldn’t put up with any more backtracking
or delays, but that is all I can do.

Also perhaps the tombstone of Jesus rolling aside is
like the moon rolling from late waxing gibbous moon
through full moon to early waning gibbous moon.
And though one tradition says the Buddha achieved
awakening/enlightenment at first quarter, another
tradition says it was at full moon.

Ha, I am hoping that Sarah McLachlan will show up at
Folk Night at The Ship Pub Wednesday night (two
days after full moon) and that will cause me to come
out of my low years, which have lasted far longer
(22.64 years) than the seven years of the Buddha.
(The assisted shaktipat recipients are already out
of the low years and may experience perineum clicks,
where a perineum click is a short period mula bandha.)

I’m not sure if there is a divine press release yet but
when there is the Dalai Lama’s Oracle (along with
many others) should receive it.

And inside these laws we stand.”

And sometimes I substitute “dance” for “stand”.

And it is funny, I recently posted those lyrics in another
thread but cannot find that post on http://groups.google.com
so maybe somebody other than me deleted it.

OK, I found that post in my newsreader but still can’t find
it on http://groups.google.com so someone must have
censored it.

Here is that post with full headers in case anyone wants
to investigate:

Today is druid new moon (six days after new moon) and a
little while ago I saw the late waxing crescent moon in
the blue sky, which is the first time I have seen the moon
since waning crescent, since it has been cloudy here the
last few days. I think druid new moon is when Breton
druids cut the mistletoe with a golden sickle. Here in
Newfoundland we don’t have mistletoe (except perhaps
in the Memorial University Botanical Garden) so I
would substitute dogberry (mountain ash) berries
instead, but won’t get to today, and I don’t know if
mistletoe berries or dogberries have any medicinal
properties but suspect so.

And tomorrow is first quarter moon which in one tradition
is when the Buddha is said to have achieved
awakening/enlightenment at the end of his ascetic years.

Another tradition says it was full moon.

"The strap that holds the cart in rein
Has been let loose by wearing thin
By wearing thin, by biting through

<snip>

And the cart is on a wheel
And the wheel is on a hill
And the hill is shifting sand
And inside these laws we stand.”

(from Ferron’s song The Cart)

(I sometimes substitute “dance” for “stand”.)

Sounds good to me for China for sure, but here in Canada
I think we are OK.

But it was business as usual at the United Nations today.

It looks as though the exact time of full moon has passed
without there being major effects (especially of the funnel,
healing circle prescriptions, and species balance). So
probably I will have to give up on my four components.
However the moon is still quite full tonight (Sept. 25) and
nearly full tomorrow night (Sept. 26) so I won’t give up
on it until after tomorrow night. And as I said in the
thread “one FINAL attempt” on alt.religion.shamanism ,
this will be my final attempt (of many over the years).

Also unlike late June, 1996, I am not delusional since
I don’t believe for sure that it is working, and I am
not labelling people close to me as criminals.
