Last days more and more servers are getting like chatboxes... _{I folow yoga so} ...Lessons in being silent...

Lesson 1 - Concentrate
1. Go sit as comfortable you can...
2. Start thinking... What can be better @ TT/in this world...
3. Start being silent... Hold it like for 10 minutes...
4. Still hold it silent... Concentrate... Feel the power of silence...
5. Power of silence...
6. After the 10 minutes silence... Be still quite quiet... But you can talk back...
7. Do this like each 3 hours... And... You'll feel reborn...

Note : Girl in the pic is me (not very a good pic, but...)

Sorry sounds to much like "finding inner peace" and all that...... Looks spiritually dodgy...

Well, she does put up a good arguement. I went into Lep's server andall the green were just talking. I was the only one playing and then one othr green decided to actually play. I sometimes rant on but it is to inform/ask/yell at someone because they dont know about someting. Most of the time it is army related. THis does not excuse me but I actually play while typing eery now and then, and yes it is possible. :P

How about the chatty people go use yahoo voice so they can play and talk at the same time. If the people are not there to play and are just taking up spaces, they should get the boot in the backside.

Cassie, Who does you lawn? Looks great! XD

I have that same outfit. I keep splitting the pants though..... 8o

@Jay - Inner peace and meditating ain't bad.

Did a quick search and found these.

So think on these things and you'll be fine. ;)

I'd do this Concentrate thing when I have time for me its busy work. Mostly I do nothing but stay on the computer but its still work.
Concentrate reminds me of a thing I would say but I guess I forget. _{^Concentrate!}

^^ Thanks for that I see what you mean now.

Just in the picture the meditating position is the traditional "Buddism" way....Is that right? Or does it originate from another source and can be used through any kind of meditation....?

I know its just a position but still...Dont want to get my religions mixed up. I think my dad would have a good long talk with me if he found me in that postion meditating :P lol

Lol nap. I had the impression that you never wore pants... :o
I do sometimes IM ppl on yahoo and MSN. I only chat in TT if I do not have ppl on my IM list and if it is a good game. Or if solmeone is irratating me and if it is neccasary like in TS.

Lol napalm well I like inner peace al thoe I could get some pie and make that in me so then we got inner pie whos with me!!!.......fine more 4 me then.

@ Jay - I'd sit in a fashion that made you comfortable. If you don't want to sit in the Lotus position, then don't. I'm sure the Lotus means something to those who developed it. Besides, yYou'd probably end up thinking more about how your sitting than what you're there to meditate about. Just get somewhere quiet where you won't be interupted and go for it!

If I sat in that position, they'd be picking me and my legs up in seperate pieces. DOH!

@ Rabban and Jay - I think there is a subtle difference between the meditating described above:

And the meditating described in scripture:

The meditating prescribed in the Bible is about eliminating distractions to focus on God and His glory. Notice the difference between "Still hold it silent... Concentrate... Feel the power of silence..." and "I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways." I won't argue that we were created with a need for rest (eg. - the command to observe the Sabbath), but I think we miss the mark if we meditate for the sake of emptiness alone. We should clear our minds for the sake of freeing more of our attention for God.

Regardless, taking time for rest is clearly important. My $0.02. ;)

Wheres the pic? Its only a box with a ? In it
