Lovin it, serenes Im always amazed at how people percieve the world reminds me how relative everything is. if anyone is intrested in doing a retreat there is a place that offers free ten day retreats all around AUS and the rest of the world, heaps over in india, all is run on donation of money and time, check out dhamma.org also i find with meditation you can't expect anything you just observe what reality gives you, and whilst observing equanimously, it disintergrates. shine on

Have some nymphaea caerulea flowers, I would love to get my hands on some fresh kat leaves, my chook has grown to like these very much. But if not, anything intresting would be nice.

Sweet pan, is the best, the indians have got this down, they add cardamon, fennel, aniseed, honey, spearmint, changes from person to person. They also add tobacco, but i didn't try might have some synergy. In PNG they just use the nut and have a mustard pod which they dip in the lime and chew, nasty gear. I quite like betel, i even saw monks chewing it in the afternoons. FOund it was good for digestion when i ate too many deep fried curry suprises. . -
I have been told with some meditation you can bring old reactions up from the unconsious, manifesting as something on the body,(Jung talked about and several others). the mind always clutches towards the gross, so bring it back to your breath, the mind gets suttler, so the mind gets suttler adn then your perceptions get suttler, pain dissolves into pressure, pressure desolves into vibrating vibrating turn into bubbles. Bubbles arising and passing very fast. do you think this is a good theory? don't know if this helps.

First, golds grow in dung (cow) after some decnet rain then sun, at least let one day of sun, They turn blue if you accidently stand on them/crush them Been told they can gow all year if your in a sub-tropical area!! Also when picking the legal edibles use a paper bag, so they don't sweat/age too much. Also i find wearing thongs good if there's heaps of rain. And finally if looking/admiring the gold top variety, look for dry patties(relativily-rain), and they tend to like the old patties that have grass around it/think it protects the fragile fella's. Be smart Be happy

Have a decent amount(not counted as they are to small-im too lazy) of viable seeds. Good growers. Ancient shamans may have combined phalarias leaves and syraian rue seeds for use in there rituals etc.
