  1. Gospel of Thomas

    77. Jesus said, "I am the light that is over all things. I am all: from me all came forth, and to me all attained. Split a piece of wood; I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there."
  2. Gospel of Thomas

    I guess we can keep this going. Just because we move onto the next one, doesn't mean we can't go back - if anyone wants to share thoughts about any of the previous verses, please, do share!
  3. Need insight. What’s happening to me

    Yes, it does. I’ve felt it on many occasions too. You must be pretty sensitive to feel energy like that. Do you meditate at all ? Or anything of that sort ? also remember that sexual energy is probably the most powerful force in the body. The urge to procreate or for pleasure... That urge will overpower sleep, food (well maybe not food)... just about anything. There’s obviously a lot of “juice” that goes into the whole biological process. You happen to grab onto the feelings that come with that process and rode them like a wave.

Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you, Fa Xin and the TDB team Welcome Will, Sounds like you were focused on the (very strong) energy flows of your body (brought on by sexual drive). I'd say this is normal, for someone who is sensitive enough to feel flows like this. Welcome to the strange world of energy stuff!

  5. Gospel of Thomas

    To me, the merchandise is all of the worldly things, and the pearl is the hidden Kingdom of God. Being prudent (keep digging, keep asking) you will not only lose the worldly things - but in a way you USE (sell) the worldly things to find the Kingdom (for instance, suffering and desire may cause you to look within for happiness).
  6. Gospel of Thomas

    76. Jesus said, "The Father's kingdom is like a merchant who had a supply of merchandise and found a pearl. That merchant was prudent; he sold the merchandise and bought the single pearl for himself. So also with you, seek his treasure that is unfailing, that is enduring, where no moth comes to eat and no worm destroys."
  7. Gospel of Thomas

    Thanks... much to think about. Seems more akin to “realizing you are all” rather than just “realizing you are the light”
  8. Gospel of Thomas

    So in this case, the bridal chamber means the “light of God”? So merging your male and female sides, you will ultimately merge with God...
  9. Gospel of Thomas

    This one is very interesting to me, especially the part where it says, "Those who are alone..." Anyone have any thoughts?
  10. Gospel of Thomas

    75. Jesus said, "There are many standing at the door, but those who are alone will enter the bridal suite."
  11. Pangu Shengong

    They certainly do move energy and help to clear things, yes. Did you learn the moving form in person?
  12. Gospel of Thomas

    74. He said, "Lord, there are many around the drinking trough, but there is nothing in the well."
  13. Pangu Shengong

    In my experience the nonmoving form helped a bit with concentration and relaxation. Honestly I never enjoyed the NMF, there were a few times i hit some sweet spots with it but it just wasn’t my thing. The main thing with NMF is to stay relaxed, and not try to concentrate on doing it (they stress this heavily, and once you learn it you see why) The moving and advanced forms however I enjoyed a lot (as well as the healing technique). I no longer practice PGSG but i did practice heavily for over a year.
  14. Can We Evoke/Invoke Our Dantian(s)?

    If you can evoke a Dantien to fill, or create something to fill it for you..... wouldn’t you be able to just fill it without having to do the extra stuff? I don’t practice this style of alchemy so I’m purely playing devils advocate here.
  15. Can We Evoke/Invoke Our Dantian(s)?

    Sometimes after a big meal, I think it happens...

  19. Can We Evoke/Invoke Our Dantian(s)?

    I don’t believe that kind of technique is in traditional inner alchemy, no. Its good your thinking outside of the box, though. My comment would be not to mix traditions too much. Stick with a method or teacher you resonate with. This way, if something does go wrong... chances are someone has trotted that path before, and will be able to fix it or steer you in the right direction. Or, you could try it out and tell us what happened. I’m both a cautious and adventurous soul, especially when I’m watching from afar.

  25. Using the mind to untangle the heart knots, and the heart to untangle the mind knots 😊 Sounds like a good balance to me
