]]> Comment on Cutting the Habit by drclaude http://www.rabidquill.com/2008/04/cutting-the-habit/#comment-93 drclaude Sun, 13 Apr 2008 09:36:39 +0000 http://www.rabidquill.com/2008/04/cutting-the-habit/#comment-93 It all starts with individuals such as you and me asking themselves simple questions such as: - what is unwanted in my life? - what is it costing me? - am I willing to be free from it? - by when? - for how long? - am I free of it? As we get how costly it is to remain stuck, we will give up the addiction to the status quo. Non-freedom is not just found in public schools, it is the found in every single individual who believes that their inner state is determined and created by their circumstances. Thus the main habit to cut is the habit of asking WHY questions and answering them with BECAUSE xxxxxx, i.e. the habit of making up theories which shift responsibility away from SELF to something or someone else. And that habit is found even in the most freely thinking people. But ONCE WE GET THAT, the whole structure can be crumbled down in one instant if one chooses so. Or it could be crumbled down in big chunks--e.g. by creating unconditional freedom from one or two major habitual negative emotional reactions now (our hidden ways of being), and then a couple more later. A few individuals making such a choice will inspire the masses. It all starts with individuals such as you and me asking themselves simple questions such as:
- what is unwanted in my life?
- what is it costing me?

]]> Comment on Frontal Assault on Freedom: FBI Raids Liberty Dollar by vinyasi http://www.rabidquill.com/2007/11/frontal-assault-on-freedom-fbi-raids-liberty-dollar/#comment-75 vinyasi Wed, 28 Nov 2007 13:06:15 +0000 http://www.rabidquill.com/?p=17#comment-75 Does the U.S. Govt. Owe YOU Money? Hearing about the raid on the national fulfillment office of the Liberty Dollar didn't put me in the fit of pink, but I learned to get over it by donating all of my interest in my unfulfilled orders (that were either curtailed or confiscated by the government on Nov. 14). And to encourage greater participation among bystanders, I've further divided my give-away down to as little as one penny provided that these tiny demands for refund be donated to the Liberty Dollar, Legal Defense Fund to help eliminate the logistical nightmare of the Liberty Dollar staff trying to disperse a mere penny to gazillions of people from the proceeds gained whenever the class action lawsuit is completed. But demands for refund which are greater than, or equal to, a dollar could go to you. Since I can contract-out my property to anyone I choose, and further subdivide my give-away down to ridiculously small fractions, my feeble loss (as great as it may seem to me) can be magnified to potentially include lots of participation from anyone who isn't already involved, but who might now consider the possibility that more than just my rights have been violated, but your's as well.
