The reason for this is that Western therapists , in contrast to their Thai more access and exposure to other styles of massage . Therefore is always a tendency to mix and blend and combine techniques. Therapists in Thailand have exposed to usually never far from the traditional way of working, and therefore find not much waste and change to Thailand. Also have Western therapists often started learning, and in particular Swedish massage for a table. Therefore, many of them Thai have massage on the table, which of course does change, and many Thai massage mix with Swedish massage. Personally I Thai have awarded massage in Thailand with several and renowned teacher studied. They all had their own style and their own unique techniques. And that's without blending Thai massage with other modalities. What you should choose style as an up and coming Thai massage practitioner ? In particular, this depends on four factors: 1. Fun what style you most received? You do do best what you lik...

If you look closely in the values, one would see lessons and ideal, that are currently taught by many today that these teachings are not new, nor are they original. It is my firm belief that all spiritual, philosophical and social ideal last optimizations come from and just restructured and were reworded to fit the modern context of today. It is with this in mind, I want to my appreciation by this thank you letter extending one of the ancestors of the values, most of us today in keeping the Roman philosopher Seneca the younger. Dear Seneca, The philosophy that taught during your time has also for modern wisdom meaning be. I, on the one hand have been moved by your teachings and have tried, which many values for life, that you have in a number of your essays and letters wrote. This letter thank you is for. One of my personal favorites is when you wrote "Les Misérables, whose appetite is temptation only by expensive foods", refers to the concept, that true wealth should never b...

We are people of humility and intention always, whether through action or inaction. This intention is not self-serving; from good intentions, more reserved. We have enough strength of our own, and worn, do that by God in the life with deliberation and intention, always in control of what we do or not. It is worse in an other wind much, - you know apart from our own ancestors of God - that is, find aufgekehrt in a whirlwind and aufgekehrt from the conscious control. All these circumstances we can (this is enough, mind you) is the trust in God and to pray. And yet, for both these places of spiritual fact - in control and not - we are the most reliant on God, i.e. in strength or weakness. This article is aimed towards the circumstances of the control; Life is here as all settled. (But our place which control [whether we see ourselves as 'Control' or 'not'] must also vote to, that we ' in control'"). A modest intent The appropriately cautious person who is with...

One day an ancient Chinese philosopher visited Shi, his friend philosopher Zhuangzi, Hui. Hui Shi Zhuangzi said, that the calabash tree presents fruit wore a large calabash of his King. The calabash was too large, as a bottle as would it be used generally. Hui is trying, as water use jar, but it was too heavy, when wear it full of water. He cut it in the middle and trying, use it as a ladle of water. Hui found again, it was too large, and that it would not work. He could not come good with other ideas for its use. He decided that it was useless, and threw it. Zhuangzi considered Hui shook his head, telling him that Hui not know, how the value of things to determine or how to use them. A cat is not as big as a bull, but it catches mice. A Bull is not as fast as a cat, but it provides milk. Everything existed value, characteristics and purpose, in the world regardless of its size. It was not the great gourd, which was impossible. It was hui's vision, the it useless. Zhuangzi continue...

Consciousness is the domain of my existence. Is the domain of my being with other people who surrounded my world and their behavior is the nature of the reality I live in. I am also a part of me a part of the reality of other people like you. And what do we ourselves others is as is their reality for them. Each is a culture of its own with unique differences compared to the other. You are of my nation in a mass culture. And they are the global culture to a greater extent. But often we are blind to the fact that we makes the reality of another and a part of the global culture. For the reality where we are the type of another sentient life and how the reality natured and behaves, short-sighted. The only people who are real for us are the people we know. The rest is a gray mass of people that we experience exchange or have no knowledge of her personality. Someone of you in the middle distance on the road on foot is just you feel a part of the lot only sensory connections. It does not matt...

Are people upright walking primates right? Yes, that is true, but who is to say that chimpanzees are actually a race of people the 98.7% of human DNA parts not? Scary thought, OK, but hear me out, also if you do not care to here think, because it might humble you very best of your species-centric attitude. Now then, since the DNA is so close, it is quite possible that humans and chimpanzees can inter-breed, so, are they human definition - brethren. Of course, is this easy right proven? Last week I was someone with a 150 this with an overseas well-known + discussion IQ and they said "Yes I think it is." But it is probably a lot of people who are opposed to it. "Do you know if it has a serious discussion about the attempt to do this?" Well, actually, and this is you, Yes, shock, has been. I do not know whether the offspring was viable (able to reproduce). It is an age in the 1950s years 1960s and I do not know what kind of chimpanzees I think, it was a Bonobo. The per...

In my personal ethics in organizations class this week we discuss world views and dilemmas by using the characters of the play "doubt: A parable" by John Patrick Shanley. We had to read the game and then to thought-provoking questions answers presented by our teachers. The part of the question, which I thought was interesting: " Each character in the Shanley's play doubt, a parable, is involved in a moral dilemma." Probably, a Christian worldview shares these characters. Define it differently their dilemmas? Do she choose different relevant facts based on their world views? What is a "world view"? "Describe some important aspects of your own worldview." My answer: "Was one of the first classes I have on intercultural communication, and the values and standards a person experience of the world impact;" also known as their "Worldview." Even if two people share the same religious background, yet it can because each family has...

Part one of two: the selection Natural selection vs. Human selection There is a difference between "The origin of species" or "Natural selection" not survive importance, nature, which should, and should be based on characteristics and so on, and today we call it, genetic engineering, or cumulative selection selects. We do this, to plants and animals; in other words, breeding out of control. Similar to Bible in the old days was the planting and harvesting. Darwin took to a step further with the notice of all be obvious as the growing number of organisms, and if they do, not in a position to survive, only the selected pair, or many, depending on it, but look at it from a different angle. The ship angle: It's 1720 A.D.; You are a Negro, soon, slave, be sold as New Orleans slave platform on the in the center of the city. The ship was made to hold 350 slaves, there are 520 in a Hall; You are in the cramped Hall for three months. Twenty percent die suffocation and dis...

An interesting branch of archaeology was called Xenoarchaeology. Xenoarchaeology deals with the physical remains of intelligent alien cultures. While this concept into the hands of science fiction authors is often declined, it will be certainly still more and more stars with hospitable planet to find much more taken seriously as an astrophysicist. It is always more always believed that life in the past as impossible as well as conditions can thrive, open only on this realm of possibility. At the earliest in the 1600's, Johannes Kepler demanded that many features can be artificially constructed of the lunar landscape of an alien intelligence. Wrote in the same vein hide astronomical suspicions and perhaps passed insiders know, Arthur C. Clarke of many novels by science fiction hid positing the existence of intelligent distributed Obelisk, designed in the entire solar system. Until his death closer than his career could not be compromised, made public statements about his positive be...

The story of agnosticism is a single important event that will change, before it was accepted in society. The word agnostic was created by Thomas Henry Huxley, coined the word agnostic and declared open it during the metaphysical society party one evening in 1869. Huxley considered a free-thinking and denied that he was an atheist or a theist. Agnostic comes from the Greek word "Agnostos" that "don't know".The term agnostic was's account inspired by St Paul on his visitation in one of the temples of Greece with an inscription on the altar with the Greek words "Agnosto Theos" which means "to the unknown God". Agnosticism may be several categories such as agnostic theism, agnosticism and agnostic atheism strong and weak. The history of agnosticism was quoted on his first public appearance in a printed page of the Viewer from 29 may 1869. The principle of agnosticism has gained criticism and the same time known recognition by several philoso...

A few instant coffee granules miss the Cup as often first thing in the morning. With slow sleepy I steals mop it up while I wait for the kettle boil. If I have succeeded, the correct number of coffee granules from the coffee in my cup give glass, and just the right amount of sugar, milk and hot water added, it will be then a good cup of coffee.

It is the idea that can be used to fashion that an art has called the because it developed itself from sewing and tailoring, a craft is, though tailoring "Architecture" and the cover of the tissue of the body as "sculptural...

The traditional American philosophy is characterized by the concept of natural law and the rule of law, etc.. That our social and political laws should reflect the natural laws of human nature. You are that self-interest and competition inherent attributes of human nature are the premise underlying. Our social and State systems should these natural aspects of human nature channel in a perfect Union. It is designed with three main branches of the Government, the same so they could compete with each other and prevent that everyone to suppress a branch. At the same time the Government was formed, published his book, wealth of Nations Adam Smith. I haven't read the book, but I understand that it suggests that this philosophy natural are the self-interest and competition and healthy. This postmodern philosophy, that everything is subjective and selfish was very popular at this time. I believe that the enlightenment are philosophy of realism and essentialism an accurate understanding of ...

It is wonderful, some to find the same or similar numbers in Western and oriental cultures. This mythological bird is one of them. In the Western world, it is the "Phoenix" or "Fire bird." called Oriental culture represented the Chinese call the bird "Fenghuang." Japanese used the same Chinese characters and call it "Houou." This sacred bird is in various mythologies. It is not only a European and East Asian creature. The bird is in the mythology of the Greeks, Romans, Persians, Egyptians and Indians. The common feature is that this bird has eternal life. You jump into a volcano, the life and the text to update and flies again. The Chinese version of this bird is an old story of a Chinese philosophers, such as the huge bird with eternal life called "Huang." in the Zhuangzi, According to the Zhuangzi, a giant bird in the Northern Ocean living history. The sea such as big fish eggs is formed under water. If the stormy season comes, flying...

Having now spent a considerable amount of time consuming, digesting, and integrating her ideas, I now see that Rand did far more than simply combine Aristotle and Nietzsche; she corrected and completed them. Leaving Aristotle aside for the moment, I would like to look at what I see as two major corrections Rand made to the philosophy of Nietzsche. Nietzsche's Contributions and Catastrophes There are those who have said of Nietzsche that he was too poetic to be a philosopher, and too philosophical to be a poet. Most certainly, Friedrich Nietzsche is a mixed bag in more ways than one. In the end, Nietzsche's philosophy is what I call a necessary tragedy. As far as his contributions, I see two points that are important. The Contributions of Nietzsche's "Philosophy with a Hammer" First, Nietzsche was a champion of individualism who attempted to revitalize our lost Achilles spirit of man as a hero. Nietzsche declared all-out war against the moralities of collectivism a...

It was family medicine in China. The family employees in dye substances in cold water in winter. The family was suffering from chapped hands caused by work in the winter of cold water and wind. They developed a special medicine for the treatment of chapped hands. A traveller heard rumors that medicine for the treatment of chapped hands had this family, so he visited the family and offered to buy the medicine, the rules and instructions. He wanted to prescribe medicine, so that the travelers the family 10,000 yen, the medicine of his recipes and instructions to buy offered. The family discussed the proposal. Their color they brought business to less than 1,000 yen. The offer was more than 10 times their normal business. So they decided to sell the instructions, prescription and medicine to these travelers. The travellers found the in the northern part of China and shared a local King, he had to handle a special method for the chapped hands for soldiers, to fight in the winter. Knowledge...

Session three more... Upanishads presented a profound truth, which is universal, boundless, immutable, unkörperlich and all pervading consciousness Brahman or even in all of us. This itself has no name, shape, form or color, any description without attributes. The names and forms, we use are for our own understanding. This itself is beyond meaning. This itself is existence - know bliss. Self-knowledge is the central theme of the Upanishads, essence of liberation. The Upanishads it is responsible for the guru spiritual wisdom to worthy or qualified students and the student practices implementation to provide reflection with meditation. At this point it is all being able to itself and see in all beings. By implementing the 'immortal itself' in each of us can overcome a death and achieve Moksha. Those who leave without being aware of this even know this world to always go from death, death, and again and again, until they experience it. Heart in every one of us is the temple where...

It was observed that an insufficient understanding of the fundamental difference between aesthetics and ethics of the inevitable collapse of cultures brings. This ignorance was partly due to the General Western population through an illogical combination of religious and political core curriculum organized studies forced, that dominate the philosophies of Western scientific culture. Spin doctoring illogical aesthetics as passionate ethical beliefs present held, a non-sustainable approach of the process life, what brings to social disintegration entails. This problem now hangs the fate of global civilization in the balance. Although the difference between aesthetics and ethics is now measurable, the present panic obsession with global economic rationalism prevents failure real investigation into this topic. However, the emerging chemistry of the quantum biology as medical science, the nature of the technologies is needed for the healthy or ethical improvement of global humanity revealin...

Plato is known as one of the world's greatest philosophers. At the time of the death of Pericles in 429 V. was born, he spent almost eighty years to the point, which began the great with the birth of Alexander. He belonged to an aristocratic Athenian family who were the then relatively wealthy by the standards. A large number of Plato's played an active role in Athenian politics related, but this was an activity, the Plato of the spared. In his youth he was fascinated by the teachings and thoughts of Socrates, so much so that he attended the Academy, established the Socrates. Plato was only thirty years old when Socrates was killed in prison for crimes against the gods. Although incredibly by the death of Socrates tortured, Plato put on record the discussions he had held with his teacher. Now we know what most of Socrates, the man and his thought, comes from the texts created by Plato. In the course of time, he began his own concepts and ideas relating to philosophy. His best k...

Arthur Koestler coined the terms "Holon" and "Holarchy" in the year 1967 in his book the Ghost in the machine. Recently, these words of the philosopher Ken Wilber have been repopularized. The word Holon's meaning a neuter of the Greek "Holos", "whole." Holon refers to an entity or concept, the at the same time a whole, but is a part of a larger constellation. HOLONS are stable, autonomous and independent, but also subject to control by higher Holonic authorities. You are also intermediate forms on which builds all Holarchy. The Holarchy is a nested hierarchy of Holons. Hierarchy is not the perfect word for that statement, but for lack of another it used. The inappropriateness of come from the Holarchy focus on horizontal translation as opposed to vertical transformation. One thing not to others, but transcends and includes the former. Development is envelopment. This is because of the nested nature of Holarchies. An example of a Holarchy is, ...

Mahavakyas enable to achieve the viewfinder to the non-dual nature of himself and declare an end to the servitude by his knowledge of the Atman and Brahman. The four Mahavakyas can be connected.

The cultural continuum exists in parallel with the causal continuation of the events of the world. They are inseparable from each other. The culture of a nation is passed on to the next generations, the born, a part of the causal continuation of a nation. It is an endless transaction between generations for as long as mankind exists. Even when values are different and as social behaviour changes by the time the cultures which have root and same origin. The phases of a cultural continuum can be similar to, as if different cultures within the causal continuation of a nation. Their further exceed the limits of mortality in the disappearance of the other no longer as a phase in the history, as the contents of a culture is so significantly changed some branches. But here that comes the interesting part for the cultures that disappear. Values and beliefs are universal, as they know and are ideas. You are in a framework of values and beliefs, which together produce the core of a culture combi...

I often think about how are shortcomings and faults part of what absolutely natural materials make so beautiful. This is, what makes beautiful, imperfect people us all too! The Japanese have an aesthetic philosophy, studied and revered the feeling, has called it Wabi Sabi. As the absolute and real truth of Wabi Sabi not written so many Eastern philosophies or expressed in words, but words is what I have, I'll keep! Wabi Sabi is the beauty of the shortcomings and the fact that all over is transient, temporary. For example, we have a wall of cement in the garden, which is crumbling. My husband wanted it down and make a new. The horror! I saved this wall from Newification and planted around it. And behold, it's new-found moisture, green algae (a precursor of the MOSS) has started to grow in the cliffs of the exposed pebbles. A crumbling, Mossy wall is a perfect example for what is Wabi Sabi. The beauty of Wabi Sabi is not only about destruction and decay. The beauty lies in the co...

Last month, I was having a fun conversation with someone who had a strip of bitterness toward life as it had turned out. She had blamed the various culprits, their former spouses who are bad guys, and some with political party leaders over the years. In fact, I laughed and said "trust no one"-it's easier, because you are never hinuntergelassen this way. No expectations means no disappointments. She laughed and said; "Trust you said nobody somehow a poetic ring, isn't it?" Yes, I like it. And I know that you trust "nobody" may not because it would be someone you see? In any case I said I just did a book; "Our undiscovered universe - introduction of NULL physics, the science of the uniform and unconditional reality" by Terence Witt, on nothing, in, that nothing suggests there is no; or indeed, as nothing is really something, there has always been, and it must in this case are available. In fact, here is another thought, if you "trust n...

When reading the bible (the old testament and the Torah especially) the view created is of a God-larger and more powerful than US but with human qualities of jealousy, anger and retribution. A God that desires blood sacrifices from its people to keep it happy. A God that does not hesitate to kill the firstborn children of the Israelites' enemies (the Egyptians). In other words, a God who is, what we today would call a child abuser. We've basically created a God with lower standards for life than our own. Understand clearly that what we call "God" possesses none of these attributes. This is not a solid universe. Solid matter is really just tiny energy particles vibrating very quickly. There is a fundamental emptiness that underlies everything. If you could look inside an atom, you would see that it is made up predominantly of empty space. Science believes we live in a purely mechanistic universe and that the phenomenon of evolution arises out of chance mutation. But, t...
