What is a non-dualist without a poor relationship with their father. Probably at least a duelist. So it comes down to that; really.

It's like tyranny warning you over another one.

With this in your head you won't feel blue. https://youtu.be/q1H_OwK9r5s

And you're not feeling any better?

I think that's the way to see it. Besides if you think about it. Your experiences haven't really moved you closer to God. On the contrary. They've made you doubt him. Now who does that? The devil. I don't believe in the devil but I do believe in devil forces and the undisputable result of your suffering has not been an undisputable faith towards God. But a cynicism towards him. He's making you believe that God. And everything he stands for is stupid. Just like the devil tempted Jesus Christ by making him believe that God had abandoned him, was cruel. So that does what? That reinforces the idea that in times of doubt and suffering you get the opportunity to return to God and reafirm your faith in him, but not through suffering in itself, but through it. In and amongst suffering you will not be swayed - until you get better. So God; because he's all-mighty. Uses the devil's will to his advantage to save you knowing it'll reinforce you, eventually. It's a chess game between the devil and the all-mighty. Where he uses him to get you closer to him, even though that couldn't be further from the intentions of the devil. God is god.

Some people claim a different number of jahnas. How many jahnas do you guys count? I've seen anything from four to twenty-five.

I've been reading about the gates. The gates on the other side of each Dantian and I now think I was working that instead of the Dantians that I previously thought I was working. Because a Dantian is at the front. And it came to me. Just like a back chakra represents the un-manifest and the front chakra represents the manifest I thought the same thing must apply to the Dantians and the Gates. Just like the front heart chakra is about love for others. You have the back heart chakra which is about love for yourself. Because how could you love another if the love you're supposed to feel for yourself is lacking. You can't. So the manifest is nurtured by the open gates of the qi circulation coming from the back. So can you; properly love another without loving yourself - impossible. So I'm thinking. There's no way I'm opening a Dantian of any sort without first getting to know my gates at the back - and that's what I think I've been doing. Now it's the turn of the Dantians to get worked and the locations that I'm finding seem to confirm that; where previously it didn't work. So. I just wanted to share that.

Maybe, because it's seen as not being a work - you submit to being posessed. Although it takes some work to do that; you mean enlightened right?

Maybe the body becomes ill just as it is about to ascend but can't do so because it's not wide enough. But still wide enough to let some of the enlightenment pass through: it can't hold the change but through the illness. As far as being non-dual; isn't the fact that it can be pitted against duality, prove there is no such thing as somebody mentioned it. Maybe you're not supposed to become non-dual; the challenge in my eyes would be to stay grounded within a tendency to be non-dual: can I keep my feet on the ground while being lifted up? Can my beard grow any longer? Can I keep any more dogs to make me care about this world? Can I wear uncomfortable shoes so as to remind me of this earth, and I don't float up there. That's kinda my unenlightened perspective on this.

Why can't you?

It's Ida and Pingala. They're communicating with you. Ida, feminine. And Pingala masculine - they want to tell you something.

What does he tell you? Good things? Bad things?

I see it completely as well Helpfuldemon. I just can't be with you so I might not know what you're going through but I believe there is reason for optimism. Can't that be the work of the devil? Or there's not doubt in your mind that it was indeed God. I've got a little something for you that might be more soothing for the soul than my words. It's something that I thought you could appreciate and I believe corresponds to your situation. It's from the city of Shambhala website. Somebody posted. This.

I know what you mean: you're feeling him so close yet can't get to him - and that leads to suffering. You want him to take you completely under his wing and give you a part of the family business. Well. I think your relationship with God is pretty good then. If you want it that bad. God is definitely living in you. Rejoice.

Doesn't that mean what I just said? You're surrendering to god. Thus. Suffering. In a certain way not to be cinical, is leading you to a greater understanding and a relationship with god. No one wants to suffer. But listen; is it really god that's making you suffer or is it following god that makes you incompatible with the world which then makes you suffer. Is it god's hand that's wielding the axe? Or is it everybody else and you're barely hanging on, thanks to god. So it's all a matter of perspective I'm sure from now to yesterday the day already seems a lot brighter and possibly you're not feeling as much everything is doom and gloom, you're getting there; it'll be alright. You've said it yourself. God has been working through me through the last several years. If that's the case. He wouldn't let you fall. He's lifting you up. Through a rocky road but everyday you can see that you're getting there. Follow the curve, or better said; observe the curve - in what direction is it going? Up? Or down? That's what counts.

I'm essentially trying to cheer Helpfuldemon up. Things are going to turnaround for him, I'm sure.

But your father would drive it down on you on how to handle the business correctly. He'd make sure you're ready, and then say. Lairg. I trust you: I taught you all I know and you've proven to be worthy otherwise why have a religion if God is supposed to do everything. I believe Christianity's point is that you don't inherit anything but you work for it. At the time of judgement you're judged the same as a poor person if you're rich; and the same as a rich person if you're poor. I'm just describing what the Bible says. You have to train. Ascetism. And eventually you'll find God. I think you can always ask yourself the question: why doesn't God, just fix everthing. Well that's not the Christian God you'll have to find another one. Never has he fixed; everything. He tends to let people be and try to reach him. Not out of lazyness, or disinterest. But because the way to him is through his son only. You wouldn't understand what it means to be with him without the experience of being without him. The same. What does goodness mean without evil. God will reapear in your life, when you least expect it. And you'll be writing something completely diferent Helpfuldemon I'm sure. Just in the meantime keep that faith in you and be ready. It's coming.

If God came to your aid you would love his aid more than you love him. You'd see him as a fixer, he would change your heart and you'd start asking for things instead of being greatful. His job, is to mold you in the image of him. To make you reach him, and that comes through bearing the cross. If he helped you, Helpfuldemon. He'd rid you of the opportunity to reafirm your faith in him. You'd lose Christ and then wonder why you're not getting any closer. Because you wouldn't if he did that. The way he shows his love is not by making you feel alright; but by forcing you to be an alright person, in the sense of being a decent human being. And throught that: you'll feel his love eventually.

Earth Star chakra?

Somebody tortured you?

I was thinking there might be a reason we tie our shoelaces the way we do and it might not be a coincidence with how kundalini is knoted. Down in the perineum. Why in heaven's name does a shoe, look so much like a butterfly's body and its wings? I couldn't help but notice. That the perineum. In its shape and how it looks like, looks awfully a lot like it has been knitted together - just like shoelaces. And the wings; would be the part that we let hang out to the sides. The shoe and she shoelaces look like a butterfly just as it's about to break free from its cacoon. We do that on our feet. Keeping our feet trapped just like the energy trapped at the bottom of our bodies and we can't break free as long as our shoes have shoelaces and we live in this interminable state of living and not living. The butterfly. Of course is a huge symbol of rebirth and regeneration; but what I was asking myself, is if some butterfly shaped structure, existed at the bottom of the body. Right where the perineum is. A mimicking of your feet. And its shoes and shoelaces.

I don't know how to start this. But I was driving energy wherever I felt it - and I sensed this energy tube driving just in the earlobe region. So I always wait till the energy tells me where it is because sometimes you can direct where you want to - but the sensation of an energy pathway in the region of the earlobe was quite clear. So with my will I drive energy in there, but not forcefully. And sometimes it you get results; sometimes you don't - but usually even in the no-success category usually I enter into a situation where the energy goes wild and I know I've made a mistake. Or it ends up bland. Nothing. Nothing happens. But in this case; for the first time - and I've been doing this for quite some time now the energy dropped as if in a power outage. As if I plugged in one thing too many, but no other point besides that point behind or below the earlobe, ever provoked that. So what I'm thinking is if there is a major channel. Or a major switch in there that can only be activated if everything else is in tip top condition, otherwise it would blow up. I've read that the vagus nerve. Which loosely seems to correspond to Sushumna, has one of its branches end up in the ear. And you could massage yourself and it would calm you down. All around the ear. I've tried several other points all around the ear and even on it and no point gets a shut down going as strongly than in the earlobe region. Not quite sure if it's under the earlobe; like in beneath it. Or if it's behind it. But working both those points gets a shutdown. My energy drops noticeably on the arms and chest. And I get cold at night. What do you make of it?

God is law - and the law has to be obeyed. I see God as a type of energy that is the law incarnated into energy form the holy spirit. Once the law is clear to you in your heart. Then your relationship with God, will be cemented in the sense that you would have understood the law. Which is morals and values. The will to be a good person. Why you must be it. I personally don't really believe in a physical God, but a type of energy. That I'm beginning to think is the blue type energy I've talked about in my most famous thread "the blue aura." You feel that way when you have it: God.

These two energy centers. Are they in existence only in a few individuals, or have these individuals managed to activate both of them. What I mean by this. Is it normal to have two energy centers there. Some sort of minor and major Bindu chakra, because I'm getting the impression that there is such a thing where one is closer to the cowlick than the other. Where everybody has it. And there is another one whose at the entrance of where the skull curves going up from the neck. Below the other Bindu. I wondered if anybody knew anything about that. Am I mistaking it with Medulla Oblongata?
