Well, stubborn? Me? ???? How do you look at yourself? I'm more curious about how you did find your way in to this theology or theological theory. Where you where in life, and why you where converted? I did listen to Osho when I needed some answers, but did not really fall in to it, as many others. I feel more connected to science theories to be true. Right now following two channels of different level of feeds. https://bigthink.com/ https://www.veritasium.com/ And trust me, I really did give Seth a try, and did look in to it as much I could. Little bit I knew from before, and did see if there where possible to look at it in new light. I doesn't say science is the answer for everything, but I believe we need science in our daily life's,and for the moment alot more interesting than anything else

My biggest fear is conflicts, and therefor keeping my options open with two bases for both of us, however one is on the border to Russia, the other one is Thailand who we yet do not know for sure which side they will finely take between the west and China. As for now, Im going back to work and my gf will travel with me. About 6 months both places with proper visas for both and married so we should not be separated in worst scenarios.

Are you saying my reality and my view is wrong? Are you living in a different reality than me, self proclaimed and created by your self, that what I sense is wrong? The food I collect and fish in the nature do not exist? Do I create my reality around me, so everyone (except a few who struggle with serious mental issues such as bipolar one as one example) I know who see the same as me is on another «planet»? Im stretching myself far here to try to understand why you want your reality to be true? Are you not comfortable among us earthlings? Your post is to be true to much, and not very informative, because you talk about proof, but provide zero. You are at another level. Sorry

Advice suggested for reentering Thailand
Hummin replied to bear9's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I believe you have less to worry about than many others because you had visa and been granted longer stay, and now been out a month or more. Maybe better to enter from a closer port, be it land or air, I would choose air above land. Good luck -
I do not see my ideas controversial because we live in the middle of it, we can see it, we can touch it and we can feel it. There is no hidden ghosts, just purity, beautiful, evil and dangerous. It have all ingredients of reality. I prove it to myself every day I walk out the door no matter where I am, we are here and now! What you constantly challenging us, is not possible to answer, neither you if asked the same questions on the same terms. You fail as much as we do on those complicated questions, even you as Asia at hearth continue to give quotes and d texts from your trustworthy sources. Those sourches mean nothing to other than you, him and those who want to follow same sourches. To us, fiction and fairytales.

Marrying a 17 year old Thai girl in the village
Hummin replied to Adumbration's topic in Marriage and Divorce
Well in comparison with our wealth and expectations, it is not much. But we as a family living in Isan, 4 adults, one teenager and 6 animals have a monthly living budget included some western food from makro 30 000,- baht. Her parents do not live with us, but we pay them 10 000 a month to work for us and take care of the farm while we are not there. The teenager girl getting 500 baht a week in school and pocket money. That do not include our travelling, restaurants, insurance and other luxery items. We do not live poor either, just saying. -
I guess that fits most people who in some way thinking about the big questions, and do have a strong opinion about what is real or not, and what is the real absolute truths in life. Anyone here believe we have to face consequences for what we did in life when we die? Myself Im quite sure Im not, but if I had kids, Im quite sure they would carry on my heritage for good and bad. So for your kids it is consequences not only from me, but all the ancestor’s before.

Marrying a 17 year old Thai girl in the village
Hummin replied to Adumbration's topic in Marriage and Divorce
Well, she was “pure and virgin” until marriage, and who also where taken advantage of her naivety. He and his brothers seems to have same interest of younger girls, where one made a ordinary girl to a princess, and the other a trafficked victim. -

Hummin replied to Adumbration's topic in Marriage and Divorce
There is plenty of options to make a good living in Isan if you have the guts to do something, and make a plan for future. It is a cultural thing that weighs them down, but many do make a good living still. -

Hummin replied to Adumbration's topic in Marriage and Divorce
I thought locals and foreigners did not apply to same law? Moral issues? There is plenty if you have any emphasis with people in need and what drives them to make such decisions. -
The only curtain claim I can make about your reply, is those three is praying to the same god, the same origin and the same family! Anyone else claiming different, havent read their history ???? You are only willing to spend as much time and energy to understand something if you feel it is necessary or beneficial, but after trying and your conclusion is it is to far fetched to be taken seriously even if I'm trying to put my goodwill to it, same as reading the bible twice. Interesting theories, stories but I have my experience and my home as said many times now. If my imaginary god is the nature our planet, our Galaxy and universe with everything in it, I can accept that. But me as an individual, I'm just a passenger who can only relate to my life here and now happening as we go randomly based on my action and decisions as we go. I can make it better from day to day by learning and changing my approach as my thinking and new decisions made, but I'm very aware I can not control everything in my life. Destiny is as much unknow to me as to you! Good night and good morning

Humans have fear for everything thats different because we have memory of past. If you are interested in history from earth you will know why we have so strong fear of foreigners, not only because of our nature, but also carrying diseases that we not yeat had been exposed to. We are not living in a comic book where the ending can change from book to book ???? We live in a physical harsh environment we have to adopt to when the environment around us changes. Just a heads up from a previous post, it doesn’t serve me any good to insult you, so I am not here to ridicule you or insult you.

I refered specific to your reply when describing you as naive if you would not be sceptical if aliens landed in your backyard, and Im also believing you take Seth a little bit to literally when speaking or describing his teaching, the same way some bible scholars take on the bible wich use metaphors and figuratively language as phrases and idioms to describe something they have no clue about, but make the text more devine as well infernal if Im right with my words and language barriers. Im all in on we can create our own destiny to a point, but we are still here in the physical world with physical limits and physical laws. Period As said before, all religions and philosophies have a message that can in fact change someones life, there is no doubt about that, but it is each and one of us, who of different reasons at some point in life is open to receive the message at the right time, if not born in to it, and became a follower by heritage. The way you and AsianAtheart present is a bit over the edge for most, at least for me, but as an idea of being creator of your own destiny, I can to a degree accept, but as said before, it have its own limits and comes with various rules depending where you are born, who is your parents, your dna, etc.you do not choose your parents! And also the spin off SethTalks have created an over the edge dangerous cult among many others, that is not healthy at all.

I guess it is a cultural bakground thing. I know many offshore workers, sailors, and craftsmen came to Thailand especially those who is born before the 70’ies who is smoking. Most of those I frequently socialise with, do not smoke or smoke anymore. Smoking tobacco is a dying habit, at least I hope

It is a lost case, people know, but still do not care, because it might work drop a pill with 20 different vitamins and minerals. Just take your time (op and those who swear to multivitamins) to read a few available articles on multivitamins, and why you should not take them. Her is one https://www.mdlinx.com/article/dangerous-duos-5-supplement-combos-to-avoid/4clJmVB8yYuNCZjX1sjB2K Spend the money on bloodwork whenever you feel you need it instead and check what you need, and go from there. Good luck

I understand where you coming from, and the ideas you serve us, be it copy paste or your own writings, but we all look at new ideas and likaable things with critical eyes, and only open for change when we need it, and once we think we found it, we close that gap behind us until next time if even necessery. I also find you a little bit naive and also generalising people like you do. If aliens was able to reach earth, should we welcome them with open arms and invite them to our homes? I fear their drive for exploring would be of same reasons as ours, and that is of big concern. I truly hope we never ever will be able to see aliens in our time. When it comes to taste, and experience of different tastes, it is something that changes by the older you get, and some is a bit more adventurous than others. Can not put people in boxes like you do with labels on based on their preferences and taste. Seth have good ideas, so have many many other living humans as philosophers who lived thousands of years ago who also did not preach much about religions. Seth have also been in the candy shop and picked his cherries as well, and some made to his own as time mature every common sense made up by time. Some for better, some for worse, as the nature of extremism living in humans who need attention and claim their place in history. Each and one for their time, and what the specific time hunger for. I just wish people did open up their eyes for the true nature we are surrounded by, and understand the true god we are depended on, each and one of us. Amen Just to drink pure water filtered in clean sand and moss and been through uknown pit-holes with rocks on the way, circulated out debris and ended up fresh and clean to drink is a miracle itself. Thats pure luxury, as well all the berries and mushrooms in the whole world as well fresh fish without any chemicals at all. That kind of luxury is disappearing slowly all over the world day by day because we are truly looking for god the wrong places and using our energy on basically empty life filled with words and meanings that really at the end have no value when pure nature as we are depended on one day is gone. Here we looked for god everywhere else than where we should have looked, and realised it to late. Blinded by false gods, feelngs, meanings, books and words. Who is your true shepherd? Who is feeding you? Who are we truly depended on?

Worth it to buy new forks? Kawasaki 650R - 09
Hummin replied to Kawazaki650R's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
If its not previously crashed, or any other damage to the forks, I doubt they arecworn out, especially less than 30k on odometer. If 300 maybe. Get it to a proper Kawa big bike service, and they will help you out. Any cracks on the tires, or more than 5 years old tires, get them changed. -
In Your Opinion: What's the best place for living in Thailand?
Hummin replied to 2009's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
British food might be best for british people, and american food for american, etc! Cant stand british food myself, but thats my taste. Thai food above many other kitchen in the world, but home best! -
Well, it is simple because you believe it is simple, and at once someone else take their view on it, it becomes another menaing, and multiply with everyone who would like to have opinion on what the truth is. Every alfa male or woman who wants to lead will use the bible for their pupose as every goverment and so on. You get me. Bible is true for those who is told it is the truth, and want to believe it is the truth, nothing else

Tried to read some of the replies here while I have been searching my god in the forrest, fishing, picking mushrooms, blueberries and drinking clear untreated water, and not sure I should reply anymore because some of it is to far out there. I feel fresh, reborn and humble knowing and accepted Im just a tiny nothing in the big picture. Nature is great peace out According to Vedas there are 33 Gods/Devas. These Gods are separated in the following pattern : 12 + 11 + 8 + 2. 12 is the number of Adityas, 11 are the number of Rudras, 8 is the number of Vasus, 1 is Prajapati, the Master of Gods, and 1 is the Supreme Ruler who is very powerful And that is only a small part of the earth’s population who believe, than take the whole universe populations and their views.

Then the question who remain to ask, why do religion give such complex and confusing texts to be understodd by ordinary people, who is most people. The bible is an important book of history and influence, but to claim it is the only truth, is wrong. I have started to read The Silk Road: A new history of the world, and think some would be interested to read it. Frankopan realigns our understanding of the world, pointing us eastward. It was on the Silk Roads that East and West first encountered each other through trade and conquest, leading to the spread of ideas, cultures and religions. From the rise and fall of empires to the spread of Buddhism and the advent of Christianity and Islam, right up to the great wars of the twentieth century—this book shows how the fate of the West has always been inextricably linked to the East https://www.amazon.com/Silk-Roads-New-History-World/dp/1101912375

I do not understand why some find evolution as a problem, and doom the whole idea. I find that strange, instead of keep the mind open
-
Okay, Not based on this later research they referred to, if I understood it correctly!
-
It doesn't make him totally wrong to be one of the first who started to be convinced evolution was the answer, and it is still evolution, just with new proofs and evolved theory?

Well, thank for your trust in my sources, Im just about to leave for this the next week, so, in the meantime, try to have a look, you want be disappointed in the old man.
