Thanks for the link -- I immediately was sucked in and ordered half a dozen Astral Amulets -- for a total of a couple grand including tax. I'm going to put them on my dead cat -- somewhere in the woods probably, eaten by a cougar or coyotes -- anyway I'll just hang them from trees and wait for him to come back to life.

Yeah thanks Ya Mu -- great blog post!

Genetically Modified Foods reeking havoc for animal health: http://www.responsibletechnology.org/utility/showArticle/?objectID=2989 So that means corn, soy, canola -- what else is genetically engineered? Wow 13% of Zukes in the U.S.... creepy. GE tomatoes are making a come back as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_food But wait - a victory against evil! http://www.organicconsumers.org/articles/article_21416.cfm

So you getting some chickens Chris? Yeah that was me posting Collapse -- here's the NY Times op-ed Ruppert posted on his blog: http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/06/06/should-this-be-the-last-generation/?hp

Hey blasto -- Seattle just passed a new "urban farming" law so that people can have up to 5 chickens in their house! http://www.seattlepi.com/local/421809_urbanag15.html

Well it's a third eye energy reading. So at first you do the tai chi and microcosmic orbit training. Everything is great -- you store your energy in the lower tan tien, and with good practice your energy builds up. But when the energy gets strong enough to open the third eye then the chi is also strong enough to do healing -- strong healing -- and also to have telepathy which is a third eye skill of the chi energy -- and precognition and telekinesis. Those abilities are before nirvikalpa samadhi which is the spacetime vortex to fully open the third eye -- when you have the macrocosmic orbit as immortal breathing and you can see dead spirits. At this point people around you will freak out because they can feel your chi energy -- so you have to store the chi energy in the lower tan tien -- and the shen energy -- but at the same time you are now able to perceive how your energy affects people around you and you can read where other people have their electromagnetic essence stored in their bodies. So before the third eye is opened then a person is not able to read other people's energy -- but it's a function of the third eye to translate the energy outside the body -- the brain translates the electromagnetic fields back into the sensory perception of the various levels of energy: the electrochemical blockages of the organs, or the level of telepathy when the chi is stronger, etc. Since where a person has their electromagnetic essence stored in their body is an energy level -- then just telling someone or even telling anyone doesn't do anything. Last time I outed a perv on taobums I got banned for a week. So now I just avoid the perv -- but unfortunately other people are not able to perceive that the person has his electromagnetic essence stuck in his lower body. I've already posted what that entails -- just read the previous posts on the thread.

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/42229/current_mohan/ They got an OHM meter to test his skin resistance and it was 10 times stronger than normal.... Nair said that his mom died when he was 7 years old so he climbed up to an electric wire to commit suicide but discovered he wasn't killed. He says it's a gift from God. http://www.history.com/shows/stan-lees-superhumans/bios/'>http://www.history.com/shows/stan-lees-superhumans/bios/ So he actually fries an egg on the show -- conducting the amps through his body. The electricians state that Nair is a fake because of the low voltage that was used for the wire.... http://community.history.com/topic/15215/t/Talk-About-Stan-Lee-s-Superhumans.html Looked real enough to me. http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_1/chpt_3/4.html http://www.history.com/shows/stan-lees-superhumans Yeah I saw this show last fall -- but it must have been just a "test run" show and then their producer contact was forwarded to me so I could recommend Chunyi Lin for their show. So they took down the website info -- and asked some questions but I didn't hear about any follow-up. Next week features Shaolin monk Shi Yan Ming who defected from China in 1992 and lives in NYC. The preview says his punch has the strength of a 30 mph car crash! http://www.history.com/shows/stan-lees-superhumans/episodes/episode-guide#slide-2 http://www.usashaolintemple.org/shaolintraining-rules/ Yeah so it states the secret is speed -- actually acceleration -- instead of mass -- for the power of force.

Astral projection is better than chi projection if it needs to be termed that way. So with astral projection usually the person is sitting in full lotus -- and when they travel then they really are "there" -- while their body is left behind. Astral projection is dangerous to be sure -- which is why full lotus grounds the body. Otherwise when the Bushmen healers did astral projection then the person had to be surrounded by other healers to protect the body. For the astral tube -- this can also be used for long distance healing, for finding lost items, for seeing the future, etc. It's just a less intense -- more brief experience. I can't do either of these things -- but I've seen them done and I've had them done to me -- long distance healing through astral projection for example. So Chunyi Lin and Jim Nance both do these all the time -- it's like a holographic laser experience. The etheric body projection is also a holographic experience but on a lower frequency of energy -- so it's not light as much as it's electrochemical tingling of the different body organs as the chi energy projects into someone else. So there's an interactive reading of another person's electromagnetic energy and their electrochemical emotional blockages in their lower organs. I do that all the time when I'm in full lotus -- unless I've been eating and I'm digesting. Yeah but for this practice you also want to be on the "modified bigu" diet. So I recommend focusing on studying the alchemical training for the microcosmic orbit -- just look it up online -- Mantak Chia's Awaken Healing Energy through the tao -- you can read it online. Then get the practice c.d. from http://springforestqigong.com for the small universe aka microcosmic orbit -- as that's the best training c.d. for the small universe from what I can tell.

"astral projection" is a commonly misused term in the New Age scene. There's two kinds -- "etheric projection" and "astral projection" -- the etheric projection is the chi (electromagnetic force) and jing (tingling emotional) energy -- while the astral projection is the shen or laser-light energy. So to do real astral projection you have to first fill up the body with chi energy which is an advanced level of practice. Once the third eye is fully open there's also something called the "astral tube" -- again a Western new age term -- but it means just going into the emptiness for spacetime travel without the full astral projection. It's just a different level of intensity. A person can have flashes of astral projection as an astral tube experience when their third eye is beginning to open up. So you just keep doing the standard alchemy training -- standing tai-chi type exercises, and the small universe or microcosmic orbit exercise and then the emptiness/self concentration (preferably in full lotus).

According to this "year without sugar" blog the corn syrup is only used in super super cheap beer and even then the yeast converts the corn syrup into alcohol. http://myyearwithout.blogspot.com/2009/02/is-there-sugar-in-my-beer.html

I recommend watching this economics lecture by Professor Richard Wolff -- http://www.linktv.org/programs/capitalism-hits-the-fan

Yeah basically it's also called "mind yoga" and it's considered the "goal as the path" which means it's a safe practice but it also means it's very slow. In Taoism there is emphasis on body transformation through standing active exercises like a simple tai-chi form or a static standing posture -- as bending the knees actives your life force jing energy -- the electrochemical emotional energy. Then the focus is on an exercise called the "microcosmic orbit" or "small universe" -- if you look online you can find a book readable online called "Awaken the Healing Energy through the Tao" that details the beginning "microcosmic orbit" practice. You can get the practice c.d. from http://springforestqigong.com for $11 -- the half hour "small universe" practice on the "Level one sitting meditation." Then for the advanced "small universe" practice you want to study the book "Taoist Yoga: Alchemy and Immortality" also available to read online. So for the concept of emptiness as resonance of complementary opposites it means there's an eternal transformation of energy that self-organizes as consciousness beyond spacetime. So the emptiness is consciousness but it is not static -- it is asymmetric and we exist within it always-already -- so we can "listen" to the emptiness but no one is listening. The listening listens to itself -- and from that emptiness then there's a spacetime vortex which creates light energy which is called shen in Taoism -- the spirit energy -- aka shakti in Hinduism. Then the shen turns into chi or prana as electromagnetic force energy and then the chi or prana turns into the jing electrochemical emotional energy. This process works in reverse as well which is why by storing up and purifying or ionizing the electrochemical energy you can then create the chi electromagnetic energy which then creates the shen light energy -- and then that light energy creates a spacetime vortex as the emptiness. The mind on its own is very weak and it requires a lot of life force energy to empty out the conceptual realm of the mind as the mind gets easily attached and controlled by the emotional energy. So first you have to build up the kidney energy and then the liver energy and then the heart energy -- first it's strong heat that is blissful and then it turns into electromagnetic fields. This is considered a traditional three month training period or 100 days called a "gong" -- which requires building up the life force energy and doing the "small universe" or "microcosmic orbit" practice, along with special diet, a good environment, etc. Taobums is good to get discussion but it's more of an introductory realm as the conceptual realm of discursive thought is not the realm of meditation itself. So if you want to make serious results then it would probably require not using the internet because otherwise there's evil energy online -- people who pose as one thing and then lie while having bad intentions to suck off energy, etc. A lot of people can't read this energy online and so are innocently victims to it. I, myself, use the computer as an excuse to sit in full lotus as my energy practice since the full lotus is the most effective means to clear out the energy blockages, along with fasting, and, of course, meditation. Have you seen this video yet of a Taoist energy master healer?

For the expose on KAP you want to read this: http://kapcult.wordpress.com/ There was just a thread on KAP started by the person doing that website -- then the KAP leader got banned for a week. Otherwise KAP regularly promotes their business here on taobums -- doing skype "shaktipat" transmissions, etc. So some people are pissed about taobums being used to promote KAP while others in taobums have joined KAP -- paying money, etc. -- so they defend KAP, and so on. Just me mentioning it will cause a KAP flare-up which is almost as bad as hemorrhoids. The 20 minute breathing exercise sounds like an emptiness practice to me -- basically the emptiness meditation can also focus on watching your breath. The idea of emptiness is to -- well people will argue about what it means of course -- but I call it the resonance of complementary opposites. Others might call it self concentration or "cessation and contemplation" or vipassana or zen/ch'an meditation, etc. http://meditationexpert.com has some good articles on emptiness meditation.

Yeah that's a brilliant column -- Paul Craig Roberts just keeps hitting the truth one line after another. The corporate tax on value added based on location is a fascinating idea -- essentially tax evasion by corporations is the norm while the working class at taxed at 30 percent -- often higher than the super rich. Anyway the issue is technology is in control -- so that the technology makes the off-shore move by corporations so easy, using computers, automation, etc. Even in China automation is the biggest threat to their sweatshop workforce. I just saw an article on NASA and GM collaborating to unleash a new robot workforce to replace even more U.S. workers. Technology is the big taboo in our culture -- and Paul Craig Roberts leaves it untouched. Workers are being replaced by machines -- productivity is sky-rocketing but jobs are being cut -- labor costs are the biggest threat to wall street. And so corporations as legal entities are just shell games -- corporations are constantly merging or using accounting fraud as ponzi schemes -- meanwhile the managers of the corporations are looting the corporate assets. There's literally just a few dozen individuals who are the most globally networked in running the economy via interlocking board of directors. Consider Kissinger on the China oil company board of directors -- in other words the global elite are destroying Earth quite literally. If things get real bad the global elite literally go underground into the FEMA cities -- as Dick Cheney did right after 911. So Paul Craig Roberts is correct but he's not radical enough. Roberts does a great job in exposing the hypocrisy of the problem but the U.S. is a military empire -- so, as Noam Chomsky points out -- we rely on the military providing "veto power" over Japan and Germany's oil supply. By the U.S. using war to control oil then we control the domination of the U.S. dollar through petrodollars -- since we also force other countries to buy oil via U.S. corporations. Those type of arrangements are not limited to the corporate structure but instead are arranged in secret with the global elite -- for example Iran was the main depositor for Rockefeller's ChaseManhattan bank -- so when Iran had its revolution, even though Iran's assets were frozen, there was still the lose of those petrodollars. So that's why Iran is "personal" for the elite -- it's not just about Israel -- it's about controlling the last vast oil supplies as Iran as 10 percent of the world's supply. So in terms of technology Germany is attempting to switch from oil to solar, wind and whatever else -- mainly to free itself from the U.S. military veto-power over oil. Of course currently the export market to the U.S. makes Germany, Japan, China, etc. dependent on buying U.S. treasury notes -- but, as Roberts points out, soon the U.S. won't be able to buy many imports anyway. Even Walmart will seem like Neiman Marcus indeed -- already the big megastores are donating their unsold food items to food shelves. Why? To stop a revolution! http://www.washingtoninformer.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3683:walmart-donates-money-food-to-end-hunger&catid=50:local&Itemid=113 And, of course, Walmart is pretending to be nice -- when in fact this food donation is of questionable quality yet a HUGE tax deduction: http://thewritingonthewal.net/?p=10895

This TED lecture is fascinating -- he slows his resting heart rate down to lower than an Olympic athlete -- by dieting and combining hyperventilation with holding his breath. He passes out after 7 minutes of holding his breath. .... All this is directly applicable to yoga which uses slowing the heart rate and holding the breath: Wow that was great but I won't spoil it for you.... Still in first grade we had a contest who could hold their breath the longest. I easily won: I held my breath till I passed out -- not sure how long that was -- but I hit two cement corner walls and then a concrete floor, cracking the back of my skull open. haha.

Looks like the ischemia from oxygen deprivation might be over-ruled by Professor Sapolsky's new genetic therapy for stress hormones: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18797472?dopt=Abstract&otool=stanford http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504763_162-20012469-10391704.html

Yeah M.D. not medical Ph.D. -- although M.D. is a medical Ph.D. by which I mean medical Ph.D.s are not required to do the same level of intensive research as a normal Ph.D. since the M.D. is focused on more narrow technical training. Yet Sagan's focus on historical research seems more like a normal Ph.D. than a M.D. as he was doing a more liberal arts Ph.D. I just broke Sagan's cardinal rule -- eating in a rhythmic schedule since the astral body is linked with food. So I had stayed up all night in full lotus -- as we had the cleaners invading our house this morning but normally I sleep late so I would not have been awake in time. Before they arrived I headed for the woods to sleep but since it was cool temperature I ate a bunch of food -- a big hunk of cheese, a muffin with butter. Anyway I would fall asleep but then keep having a "wake up and rise and shine" down yonder. I figured it was just a piss hard -- because I had forgot I normally never eat breakfast! haha. I had been drinking more water than usual. Normally I always burn off my food before it turns into sex energy -- I burn it off through my third eye transmissions into my parents as they're low in jing energy. I haven't had an loss of sperm for 6 months because I always burn off my food energy through my third eye energy transmissions. Anyway so I did a brief full lotus session but, as I was really tired, I didn't flex my third eye -- I was thinking about how Sagan says to keep motionless and just build up the energy in the third eye in order to access the astral realm. I can do that and I've done it - definitely the light energy builds up much faster if I don't "flex my third eye," thereby transmitting the energy for healing others. But storing up the energy in the lower tan tien is a pain because you always have to worry about Perv Attacks (which btw are a regular problem on thetaobums due to one Perv posting here under the guise of being enlightened)... it's easier for me to just shoot my extra energy out of my third eye instead of trying to store it up to further open my third eye. haha. So anyway I finally fell asleep into a deep sleep. I had been enjoying the birds -- the song birds migrated a month early this year! But there's a few left and one song I'm still wondering about -- anyway the goldfinches are still here and I had this dream I was watching the bright yellow gold finches and then of course this young female was with me and she made the moves on me. haha. I went into full lotus so that I only lost preseminal fluid -- and that's only the 2nd time that's happened in the past 6 months. Then to make sure the sublimation didn't just go into my prostate making my urine all foamy -- which means it didn't sublimate properly -- I "flexed my pineal gland" so I could easily transmute the extra jing energy into chi-shen transmission. So I sat in full lotus for about 45 minutes then I had to piss real bad. Then I noticed that I had slept right next to a pile of fresh deer dung - I was on the deer trail so it was probably there already. But still I'm pretty friendly with our deer -- I do full lotus third eye transmissions into them -- and they're pretty friendly with me -- they stare back and stay close and follow me and we lock eyes and they wag their tails. haha. It's possible the deer visited me to mark their trail while I was asleep. Not likely but it would have been pretty funny. Well I realized the female I had dreamt about was this long lost experience of unresolved sexual tension when I had done this nude sauna with a young female -- she was probably 19 years old and way heavily endowed, while I'm under-endowed, having low jing due to my 2 year old 24 rabies vaccine mercury shots in the stomach. Anyway I remember it was this weird vibe in the sauna that I couldn't quite fathom at the time. But finally 20 years later I was able to process the true meaning of our nude "eyeing each other" in the sauna routine -- as a dream vision. haha. So it was seemingly innocent at the time but now I know what the energy had been in that sauna. Anyway so that's a good sign because that happened about 20 years ago -- which means I'm going back in time to older energy blockages and then reversing them, resolving them. That's what I was getting at about the emotional possession stuff -- I posted it again on my blog in reference to Sagan's "regression therapy" as the focus of his training. Sagan relies on energy transmissions for his students (he talks about clearing out the possessions) but he also has a new age focus with the whole Steiner deal about the future evolution of humans. Sorry but even though Steiner had his third eye open I'm not sure it was fully open. Steiner was a fascinating Western mystic -- much like Emmanuel Swedenburg http://swedenborg.newearth.org/ -- I like Swedenburg better. But then Steiner was up against the Nazis so his whole Christ evolution of humans schtick certainly makes sense in contrast to the Nazis' fixation on eugenics as spiritual evolution.... I agree with Ramana Maharshi who stated that "there is no evolution." Notice how Sagan doesn't mention the full lotus? Seriously full lotus is standard training for serious meditation yet in the West suddenly it vanishes -- and so you don't get the necessary sublimation and transmutation of the life force energy. Of course if Sagan spent 5 years in relative isolation then maybe he didn't need the full lotus and therefore doesn't teach it to his students. I wonder which "Taoist Master" Sagan studied with? Mantak Chia?

Yeah I just finished part one -- amazing. So we had the Sufi prophet in part one. Then the Sufi saint and Hindu yogi in part two. Part three -- on to China.
