A Basic Primer For the Healing Arts From China

What would you ask a master?
SecretGrotto replied to Charles Crawford III's topic in General Discussion
Why can't masters access the information of buried/lost Taoist scripts through their intuition or with their link to Universal Intelligence? Explanation: I'm thinking of Wang Liping and his 3 teachers, all of exceptionally high attainment, yet they consider the informational discovery of lost Taoist texts as an event of magnificent import, as if they would not have been able to access its information in any other way. Decades after developing True Breath, does it subside with reversion to normal breathing, or is it maintained permanently for the rest of one's life when one chooses?- 154 replies

On what road to take. Mantak,Springforest,lomax?
SecretGrotto replied to tsiwt's topic in General Discussion
I have both SFQ and GoT. SFQ is too boring and static for me personally, but GoT is perfect. SFQ, like many other Qigong forms, is very elementary and it feels a bit one-sided. GoTI is dynamic and interesting, with lots of different ways to feel the energetics. It is all-round development of energy sensitivity and cultivation, and even after so many routines completed it remains a challenge to go deeper and feel more with every move. -
i know when the world is going to end, had a vision.
SecretGrotto replied to mewtwo's topic in General Discussion
Best to take everything with a bit of salt. Shift happens, and one cannot put life on hold for something that may not pan out. That being said, I have a very high opinion of this mystic, so I am biased enough to at least remember the prediction if it does happen some day. I like to think that this seer is experienced enough to know a true vision from a nightmare, even more so when she decides to make it public at the risk of upset. Live life, be happy, if bad things happen and you go with the flow, you'll be exactly where you need to be :-) -

Has anyone on TTB went to one of Wang Lipings seminars?
SecretGrotto replied to Formless Tao's topic in Daoist Discussion
Any testimonials for the recent December 2013 seminar of Wang Liping? Did anybody here attend this seminar? -
This reality of ours is a little more complicated than general opinion would have it. There are independent forces, entities and energies that could severely influence a person's life, health and luck. I have regularly disregarded this aspect of my existence, because there were usually simpler explanations for things that would go wrong in my life. I have studied Robert Bruce's work on Negs (Negatives), from The Practical Psychic Self-Defense Handbook, and I have come to realize how these forces have influenced my life since my childhood. I was almost shocked to discover just how much these negative forces have had a hold on me. I am 75 days celibate for the first time in my life, since starting self gratification. After a serious struggle of temptation at day 60 (which I overcame) I decided to cleanse my room and house of negs, explicitly for the first time ever. That heavy, carnal temptation has been gone ever since, and I cannot even be bothered to become aroused anymore. Looking back at my childhood I can recall multiple near-fatal attacks by dogs, freak events where I was singled out amongst other children, attacks which were stopped miraculously just in time. Dogs can sense neg-attachments and become maliciously agitated toward the host. My mother is and has always been sadly depressive, with many unexplained lumps always appearing on her body. She has seen plenty of specialists over the years, but could never get an explanation or treatment for it. There has always been tension and problems between my mother and father, and our home environment was at times distinctly negative. My parents are Christian however, and have always abstained from alcohol and drugs. Yet, negs look for any opening whatsoever to latch on to, and turn slight negativity into something worse. I can look back in my life and see where possible neg-attachments have sullied my social life especially. So two-weeks ago when I did the house cleansing, through visual imagery of electric-violet fire throwing and lifting of vibration, I could afterward sense the distinct change in atmosphere. I believe that I have reduced, even removed, neg-attachments that fed off my sexual gratification. I feel so much cleaner after then, since there is no undue powers that affect my behaviour unnaturally. Interesting things about negs is that they can be grounded electrically. If you have a new neg attacking you, then by walking over a running stream or garden hose the neg will be stopped at the running stream. If you return to the original side the neg will attack you again. Certain buildings and places with particular plumbing and electrical wiring can trap negs inside, resulting in haunted spaces. Places of ill repute, especially where addicts gather, fester with negs which you can pick up like gum on your shoe. I distinctly remember numerous social excursions where I returned home with severe, unexplained pains in my body, like somebody kicked me in my back and head. Since I started treasuring vitality, doing QiGong, and strengthening my energy body, I have been better able to deal with these negs. Negs prefer dark spaces, so if you stand in daylight then superficial negs will be banished, at least for the time being. Bad smells without a logical explanation can indicate neg presences. If a person has hateful thoughts about you, it could instigate a neg attack on you. In my opening remark I mentioned that life is not as simple as it seems. If you tick somebody off, even over the internet, you could unwittingly invoke a neg attack. And the truth is, we are all very very familiar with neg attacks. Ever been in an uncomfortable social situation with a lot of negativity, it probably messed up the rest of your day, possibly causing digestive problems like an upset stomach? Negative entities, such as some earth-bound spirits, latch onto humans and influence them to vicariously experience indulgence in certain addictions. That is why especially drug and alcohol addicts have such messed up lives, and so many additional negative things in their lives. These negs really have a powerful hold on addicts, rewarding them for indulgence and pestering and punishing them when abstaining. Below is an account by famous mystic, Aunt Clair, of an exorcism of a drug-addicts home and inmates http://forums.riverofenlightenment.com/index.php/topic,1023.0.html

Being able to change something so physical and hardcoded as DNA is very exciting, juliank, it reminds me that everything in this life can be overcome. Addicts are naturally inclined to take long showers as it is an excellent means of grounding. Of course, OldChi is not an addict, I'm just saying . Interestingly enough, humans are very adept at dealing instinctively with Negs. If we are depressed or of a bad mood we instinctively do things that make us feel better, like getting fresh air or some sunshine. We also instinctively avoid people with bad neg attachments, we can feel the negativity around them intuitively. I realized now why Jesus was baptised in a river, because flowing water removes Neg attachments which would interfere with a Christening. Rightly, Churches should loop a garden hose through the church, make a hole in the hose and spray the person so that the water stream is flowing and grounded, like a tiny shower. In the Biography of Wang Liping, when he left his body during a thunderstorm, the three teachers took on full garb with ceremonial Daoist swords, standing vigilant guard. Robert Bruce says that earth bound spirits mostly have a medium to exist in because of the electrical field of the earth, due to thunder constantly infusing the field. It would then make sense that a local thunderstorm can heighten Neg activity and pose a greater threat of interference. I do now have a greater 'respect' for how badly Negs can affect me. Previously I would not have seen a logical reason to avoid 'haunted' places, but I do now believe that the bad things that you can 'pick-up' from such places can seriously sully one's life. Incidentally, this morning at exactly 3:07AM my father shouted and argued momentarily in his sleep. I kid you not, 3:07AM. Maybe we can even instigate Neg infections in a home by watching certain horror movies. I have watched the Conjuring one too many times, in which the time of haunting is 3:07AM. Coincidence? This is also the haunting hour in Vice, so maybe collective consciousness gives life and power to this? So I stood up and walked through the house for another cleansing, finding my father's computer spontaneously starting up from hibernation. So I turn it off, moments later it starts up again on its own... Maybe that's just a software/hardware neg. Robert Bruce also states that it is 'unwise' to let a Neg know that you are aware of their presence, as it might lead them into a full onslaught of attack. Some Negs are psychic, so they know your thoughts, and they are constantly looking for an 'in' and permission to latch fully on to you. But fear not, your Higher Self protects you and knows your real desires, so if you are wrongly manipulated to give permission then in some cases it will not change anything. Like I said, we humans are experts at dealing with negs, if we are of sound mind and not too far down the path of, say, addiction.

Periorbital Condition and Vitality: Speculation Show and Tell
SecretGrotto posted a topic in General Discussion
Periorbital puffiness and periorbital dark circles are noticeable under the eyes of many people, and to me there seems to be a relationship between the condition of the fine skin under the eye and the level of health and vitality of a person. I have noticed that since I started preserving or treasuring vitality, by abstaining from sexual arousal, the skin under my eyes have become firmer and 'hugs' my eye firmer underneath. Ever since this observation, I have tried to see if I could notice a correlation between a person's potential lifestyle and the condition of their periorbital skin. It almost seems like the periorbital skin is an indicator of the level of vitality that is hard to fake, and sometimes it is a dead giveaway if a person is not wearing makeup. I'm surprised how difficult it is to get the periorbital skin to a pristine condition, mine has improved somewhat but I have a long way to go. At the risk of wrongful speculation, I would like to still visually explore this correlation in a show and tell fashion featuring a known person (current or historic) and how their lifestyle possibly explains their level of vitality. In the realized masters the overall skin condition is obviously very good, but the periorbital skin under the eyes of Yogananda is pristine even on the day of his mahasamadhi (if I have that correct) as shown below. Yogananda's energization exercises are basically Qigong, and there are many accounts of his Qi feats and feats of strength. More to come.- 21 replies

Periorbital Condition and Vitality: Speculation Show and Tell
SecretGrotto replied to SecretGrotto's topic in General Discussion
We had a converted church minister who's eyes shone with Love for God, then while working in his garden he was reaped from this earth. I like to think that his unexpected heart attack removed him from that life to one fast-tracked for enlightenment. Before his conversion he was adamantly against religion and would kick ministers out of his house in anger, but somehow he convert to an antithesis. He always preached about the love God had for us, and I could clearly see in his eyes his very real experience of that Love.- 21 replies

Periorbital Condition and Vitality: Speculation Show and Tell
SecretGrotto replied to SecretGrotto's topic in General Discussion
I am prone to worrying and I have been told that I have/had some lower torso blockages, and I do think I have damp. So with more Qigong I hope my spleen will clear up energetically. Matt Preston has a self-declared love for sweet foods, so maybe some spleen issues could explain this. Hehe, just ties in with the vegetarianism I suppose, just thought I'd throw it in there. Yeah. I have also read that his face used to change all the time depending on who he was with, to reflect something of his company. One of the mysteries of the enlightened ones. There is also a subtle asymmetry in his face, especially in the first picture in this thread, a yin-yang, father-mother expression of his complex nature. Shivabalayogi's whole body also had very peculiar asymmetry, as he expressed both Shiva and Shakti at the same time. A very interesting viewpoint, pun intended. Thx.- 21 replies

Chinese Taoist Medicine & Stillness-Movement Medical Qigong
SecretGrotto replied to Ya Mu's topic in Group Studies
I have an endless fascination with "multidimensional experiences", but it is something that is not often discussed in depth. I suppose that masters, such as yourself, would want to keep private most such experiences as out-of-body travel and higher dimensional interactions for the sake of maybe not boasting or to heed instruction from above. Aware I am of your experiences as detailed in your book, but I am interested to know how your very first multidimensional experiences came about, those moments that just blew you away with amazement of things you knew not existed. I am interested also to know what exactly is "on the menu" in terms of multidimensional experiences, at the risk of distracting perhaps from more important things. Under the impression am I perhaps also that I would break unwritten rules, if I asked if you have seen the five-pointed star in the spiritual eye, and even if you perhaps penetrated it. The feeling is that this is too personal to share maybe, but perhaps you will gladly share some of your multidimensional experiences some day? -
Chinese Taoist Medicine & Stillness-Movement Medical Qigong
SecretGrotto replied to Ya Mu's topic in Group Studies
I've been doing a lot more S-M meditation lately and my dream life just flared up like crazy. It is like I'm being dumped into action movies all through the night. When I awoke in the middle of the night and had to go back to sleep I just had to laugh at myself and say "Here we go again." I know that it is said that if the Jing is full there will be no dreams, but I've been celibate now for more than 2 months and the dreams are of a different quality, not exactly vivid in a visual, colourful sense, but I'm very aware of everything and recall is way better than in ordinary dreaming. Last night I had a long episode where the world was being invaded by evil aliens and I had to fight them. The night previous I had to perform an exorcism on a room similar to the one in 'The Conjuring', which seemed to be successful (I've watched that film one too many times). I also had bouts of premonition while in the hypnogogic state knowing an SMS was inbound and somebody was about to call my name. -
I want to die daily, for 200 years How about Wang Liping presumably saying that he will live for 150 years? He has 90 some years still to go, probably will outlive us all. How about Yogi's who take a change of bodies as described by Swami Rama? When a good young body is dumped in a river it can be used to exchange for the Yogi's old and weary bones. If one really wants to make a point and live for more than 300 years, like Mahamuni Mahavatar Babaji through several kalpas, then I guess it's possible, but most souls would want to move on to new experiences. Avatars like Babaji consent to endure life further here on Earth to render Karmic service.

Chinese Taoist Medicine & Stillness-Movement Medical Qigong
SecretGrotto replied to Ya Mu's topic in Group Studies
If I understand the story correctly, Master Juemin deemed this neuro-feedback Taoist technique to be more valuable than chests of gold and jewels, and I would be wise to follow suit. It is valuable to me, so no refund required, but perhaps you would consider a discount on the new Medical Qigong Applications DVD when it becomes available My earlier question was not an expression of disappointment, but of curiosity, as I would like to know when you used off-body techniques and when you used the neuro-feedback techniques in your clinic. How did you decide when to use which? -

Ya Mu, I have received all the DVD's today, thank you. I'm quite impressed with the look of GOT1/2, I'm going to love adding that to my small repertoire. I also received the Taoist Medicine DVD's, but I had hoped to see demonstration of the hot/cold projection and sick Qi removal as described in your book. It seems like the main part of your medicine is the spinal palpation and neuro-energetic feedback treatment, so when did you normally do hot/cold projection in treatment (in general)? -
That guy would be a master at pulling sick Qi.

Thank you Ya Mu. If I had a dollar for every person that has changed opinion after personal experience, I'll have lots of dollars.
