Interesting pictures.
I think that it may be rice fields or gardens stacked up on the hillside or ladder fields “Ti Tian”.
The construction of the railroad polluted the Lha Sa river. It is now unsafe to drink.
The Epoch journal is a neutral paper. It recently carried a series of anti CCP editorials. It has Chinese medicine, history, Buddhist sections, too.
Dragon was manmade or created by adding appendages to a snake.
But it captivates people for so long.
I always figured the imagery for dragons was multiple.
Deer, horse, serpent, bird etc etc all amalgamated into a single creature.
Not too mention that it is pretty likely that long ago someone found a fossil of a dinosaur and said “what the heck is this???!”
ést voila La Dragon!
I’m sure the earlier civs had all kinds of stories to go with any dino bones they found from east to west north to south. They are pretty much everywhere.
the gobi desert has some of the richest fossil beds on the planet. All along the silk road the tales spread from ancient times.
anyway, those are neat pics, but probably they are terraced fields, or some other natural formation of the mountain, etc etc.
interesting picture and cool story. either way its a fun read.
The dragon myths probably started as people began to dig up dinosaur bones.
Thats exactly what the dragons want you to believe.
I think man is older than we think, and exosted as Dino’s were dying out
It seems to me the epoch times is a front for falun gong, every other printing they have an article on falun gong.
Yes. That, too. Fa Lung gong.
I feel sad. I am a bird lover. I have canary and cookatiels.
Parrots are too loud for me.
:eek:
I love birds, too.
I ate at Popeye’s Chicken twice last week.
Why we only have KFC here in so Cal?
No Popeye’s there? Well, I’ve heard the batter is less spicy the farther you go from N.O. Anyway, you do have Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles, so there is that.
Wow, you can’t defeat the naughty-word killer anymore! Even when the word isn’t naughty!
All I have is BDC and Dicos. :eek:
aye, here there be Dragons…
has anyone seen dragons? I know this is more of the mystical taoism, or even san-gung,but has anyone seen dragons? I know people who say that they are most definately real,spiritual entities, yet real nonetheless. I have seen what appeared to be spiraling forms in the sky, but are these my own delusions, or phosphene visions, or floaters, or simply remnants of that last pink Floyd concert’s cheap acid? What are your experiences? Iwill not judge you, as my imagination has played so many tricks on me that at this time, Ido not know whether I am a butterfly dreaming I am TenTigers, or vice versa.
Greetings..
I think that Dragons represent a certain aspect of our spirit.. and when that aspect is active or dominate, we tend to project the dragon’s image onto ordinary things.. Once, while hiking high in the mountains, i came across a spectacular view and with the wind in my face i felt the Dragon spirit rise, it was a remarkable experience, i felt as though i could fly and i could almost sense the wings, scales and such.. but, i think that was after the same concert ..
Be well..
Ok, if you are not going to judge me, i have seen a dragon during my Wun Yuen Kung form when i was training after midnight on the roof of a 30 story corporate building as i do nite shift. It came down from the night sky like an abyss or hollow invisiable porthole and sat and watched me for a few seconds and then disappeared.
The funny thing was i felt calm and i didnt stop my form i kept going like it knew me or something.

I am serious here Garry not razzing you! If it happens again try to talk to him and see if he has any MA advice or wisdom for you. Then let us know what he has to say.
Hi Scott,
You know i have had other things happen to me that involves me chanting in other languages when asleep, having visions in dreams and with my eyes open and awake. I wont go into detail much more cause people just wont believe what i will say.
I will next time hopefully ask it, i do know it was like a spirit cloud - white and see through like a hollow tude the body had and glisering (sp).

Hi Garry,
It is reasonable for people not to believe when it hasnt happened to them. Once something unusual occurs then they will either pretend it didnt happen, rationalize it away, or realize there is much we dont understand.
I have had my share of unusual and bizarre events too. I just accept them without judgging them. Unfortunately they seldom re-occur so I dont get the opportunity to explore them further. I hope you have the opportunity to see the dragon again.
