  5. Just how do I resist the urge?

    1- move the session outdoors or create more ventilation. 2- take 1 or more pills of activated charcoal after a meal to reduce gases. 3- relocate your self at the back rows, maybe switch with the complainer or go all the way back.

  8. Just how do I resist the urge?

    Do not resist it or it will create tension and hinder your practice, there should be sufficient ventilation, it's not your fault. Either work towards creating more ventilation or reduce your gas problem.

  14. Camellia sinensis

    I tried some types of tea and got a lot of samples from Sri Lanka but my favorite for now is Japanese sencha tea which is a light green tea. And by the way I also am bothered by this conflict between camellia sinensis and other herbs being called tea because tea is a the water extract of plants not camellia sinensis only, though I'm not too sure. I read somewhere that higher quality green tea would not taste bitter because it has higher amounts of theanine which balances the bitterness. I also read that some fragrance comes from the fluoride content in the tea because camellia sinensis is sensitive to fluoride in the environment and absorbs it readily so you should get it from less fluoridated places. My mom made a test between lipton black tea and chinese green tea and noticed that the black tea formed a mold on top whereas the green tea was still ok. Sometimes the stimulation is too much for me so I have to fix it later with linden and chamomile tea.

    Mikaelz, did you notice the masonic and illuminati imagery in the trial scene of "Encounter at Far Point"?
  16. Anyone have a Schumann Resonance link?

    There is a vibration pad that uses sonic waves and includes the schumann resonance and according to its literature it was invented in korea with the guidance of a qigong specialist. http://www.arrowheadhealthworks.com/standingmate.htm

    here is a part of an article I'd like to share: source: http://www.meaningoflife.i12.com/taichi.htm Advancing More Deeply into the Process As one advances more deeply into qigong practice, and into the qigong state, significant physiological changes occur. Consumption of oxygen decreases. The lung's capacity to absorb oxygen greatly increases. So does the lung tissue's oxygen storage capacity. The white blood cell count goes up dramatically. Dr. Yan Xin writes that doing qigong "improves micro-circulation of the cerebrum and this cannot be obtained through any other kind of practice. The brain's deeply layered cerebral cells are enriched with sufficient blood by doing qigong" (Wozniak, Wu & Wang 1991: 43). This oxygen enrichment of the brain is an important key to many qigong effects. After practicing for several months, one who does qigong faithfully will begin to experience spontaneous physical movements. As the Chinese doctors like to say, "life has to move." Paradoxically, only when the mind becomes calm and serene does one's bioenergy becomes strong enough to produce spontaneous movements. The first appearance of spontaneous movements represents significant progress along the qigong learning curve. One cannot seek them out. They must come along spontaneously, in their own good time. Advancement in qigong follows a natural course. One should strive to stay relaxed, calm and in good spirits. It is especially important to be and remain on good terms with family members. Some bad feelings, pains or excessive spontaneous movements are likely to occur. These may represent mental discord, pessimism or a lack of family support. Everyone will at times feel uncomfortable, upset, angry or depressed. Everyone will experience sorrow, unfair treatment or a guilty conscience. When these happen, try to overcome them with good works, internal resolve and a positive attitude (Wozniak, Wu & Wang 1991: 86). Strong spontaneous movements may at first feel frightening, but those who have strong movements without internal discord have a great advantage. They will be able to achieve a stronger state of qi after guidance and instruction. Dr. Yan says: "... after one reaches a certain level in qigong, one depends heavily on virtue and good deeds to get more Qi and energy" (ibid.:79). After a lot of practice, one will begin to sense the activation of a small qi channel. This channel runs from the top of the head down the front of one's chest, between the legs, up the spine back to the top of the head. Activating one's qi will make a person feel "sore, numb, hurt, cold, cool, warm, hot, floating, sinking, big, small, dizzy, etc. (Wozniak, Wu & Wang 1991: 39). This is another major advance along the qigong learning curve. With sufficient practice, one may eventually become able to move one's qi at will anywhere inside the body. A person's own willpower can then effect miraculous cures. Once the flow of qi can reach the site of disease or illness, the cure can be astonishingly rapid.
  18. Do a Conspiracy Really Exist?

    There are all kinds of conspiracies so it might be better to identify what category. But in the end it is better to cultivate the positive and focus on the solutions, but it would help to know the problems in order to know the solutions. According to "Discussions with Dr. Yan Xin" you cannot achieve a tranquil qigong state unless you forget all your burdens at least temporarily: http://www.meaningoflife.i12.com/taichi.htm Edit:maybe not.
  19. Do a Conspiracy Really Exist?

    Yes.
  20. What are your favorite Star Trek episodes?

    Thanks Mikaelz for these great episodes I watched them all except for a couple of later Q episodes. The episode "Clues" was rather a loose end for me, maybe they won't get a second chance? or the greens will get run over? but Data was great and I guess that was the point in character development. I like the episodes regarding a god allegory, such as TNG's "Justice" and "Who watches the watchers" and VOY's "Blink of an Eye", but those are the only ones I saw. Looking forward to more recommendations.
  21. Good nutrition for weight gain

    Regarding digestion, have you tried digestive enzymes and probiotic supplements?
  22. Sufi Whirling

    I remember Alan Watts saying in his speech about meditation that sufi whirling is done to be free of the mind. It is also done as the first exercise in the "Tibetan 5 rites" which was talked about elsewhere on this forum and related to ballet training. It seems from those talks that spinning clockwise or anti clockwise makes a difference. In my experience, the dizziness and nausea only starts if I stopped spinning.
