could you expand on this

time as an entity is a concept i have been meaning to dive in to as well

that "flickering/refresh" has given me dmt-esque flashes before. i need to read this a few times to digest, but this is very significant.

he only recently started charging. it was running for 5 years before that and he has other things on the web under different names. im guessing the goal in charging now is to keep registration low. if he took them from a different teacher, then i would very much like to find his source. I have not found anything precisely like it. i have however found comparable techniques on my own (through meditation, vision) after discontinuing use. that's kind of what im saying though. if he took them from what you call a "real" teacher, would you not still want the tech? also, to imply or make that accusation is pretty harsh, considering you have no way to back it up. and if you do, please give, because the techs are nice

i love that. the idea that anything is finite is very destructive. thank you for the trove of resources, im eager to look into this

I think the issue is you're trying to fit lonemanpai into an eastern context, and it isn't the same. his fault for framing his school that way it's a standalone practice, closer to a western lodge than an eastern lineage. it utilizes eastern techniques and language, but is western in flavour the dude claims to be heavy on enochian ritual magick and has books about it. thus, the information is "channeled-coming from the unconscious." different from being passed down orally. as with anything, the materials are more important than the picture they're framed in, and the utilizable technique is there. i don't get why you're focusing on him as an individual over the materials he has put out. what is the point in that i just feel like its pretty bad to say you can bash him because he bashes someone else. where's the wholesomeness in that

:)))

aye

in the photograph he is pointing the gun at a large spider on the person's arm. I liked it for the concept of "over-doing it"

what book is this? some of this is information I had found on my own. I have never seen it drawn out this explicitly.

that it can be fixed is what I wanted to get at. was unsure if that was an accepted notion. further than that, the mechanics behind it can be used beyond to gratify the evil male practitioner. now, the bilocation scaring the other humans. hilarious, but also, where did you find this information? I had never heard this, only discerned it. literally makes so much sense.

ghost immortal isn't the worst outcome

ill put it this way, my practice was weirder and more intense using the techs. my body was in a more intense state. I got a lot of adrenaline and serotonin using it. I used it as a form of escapism. that was my own problem. abstaining from this, practicing milder and more traditional techs, I started working on my self, and eventually got the golden "holographic" light to manifest.

"sync your breaths up!" from personal experience, weird and dangerous. I got someone to slip into a void doing that once. we were both meditating. I held my breath past feeling them "click." my 4 minutes was 2 hours to them.

judging a practice based on what it appears to be is quite pretentious, imo I categorize it under what falun gong would call a "crooked-door" path I'd wager every human body works the same on the inside; what you call what you're doing really doesn't matter, unless what you call your practice affects you, in which case, you're doing it wrong. you say you're afraid of "spending your time on a guy" but I think that's already the wrong approach. as someone who has used it, the technical maneuvers are good, and the thought processes around the ritual aspect is pretty clean and straightforward. it looks like a joke because it's western ritual thought and practice + gnostic philosophy + qigong under the guise that it's all mentalism+electromagnetic manipulation, and maybe some quantum spook. only issue I had with it is that ritual + coven-type is not my path currently. too much new age reminiscience. the actual physical woo (from the techs-your body) is pretty impressive though. not gonna praise it but I'm not gonna trash it

it's interesting because the body seems to want to do it naturally by default. when I was and do use LMP tech, it begins to respond towards forming breaths in this way without the mind knowing what it is doing. except the lmp tech has the perenium drop the flex on the inhale, but I have noticed a passive increase in perenium tightness from the practice in general. the reassurance of what is actually happening helps greatly.

The two biggest muscles in the body are the glutes and the diaphragm. 3) The Power of Ki! Dr. Joo Bang Lee March 1988 Black Belt Magazine While one is breathing the Dan Jun (diaphragm) and anus must be held tight. This secret keeps the small universe flowing in the proper direction and prevents the yin qi energy from going up the front of the body and out of the eyes with the shen. 4) Neidan qigong, Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming At this time you should start to coordinate your breathing and abdominal movement with the movement of your huiyin (Co-1) (literally “meet the yin”) cavity and perineum to lead the qi to the tailbone (weilu cavity)….The trick of holding up and loosening the huiyin and perineum is extremely important in nei dan qigong. In his Small Circulation Heavenly Orbit book Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming emphasizes the secret of the perineum again: Huiyin is the Pump and the Abdomen is the Bellows The Huiyin cavity [perineum] is the crucial valve controlling Qi in the four yin vessels. When it [perineum] is pushed out, the stored Qi is released, and when it is held up, the valve is closed, holding Qi in and conserving it. So the Huiyin pumps Internal Qi (Nei Qi) and governs the manifestation and preservation of the body’s Qi. Controlling Huiyin [perineum] in your practice makes a significant difference. Traditionally this was one tricky place which the master would keep secret until the student was trustworthy. So that is the main secret of how to store up the energy along with continued practice of “Moving of yin and yang” to reverse blockages and convert the jing back to qi energy. 5) Chinese Medical Qigong textbook googlebook link - Anus-lifting breathing refers to the respiratory method that contracts the muscle of the perineum while inhaling and relaxes the perineum while exhaling. Generally speaking when one practices Xiao Zhou Tian (Small Heavenly Circulation Form), anus-lifting breathing is mandatory to coordinate the Qi. Flex the Diaphragm down and the perineum up at the same time - secret of storing up qi energy! 6) Bagwa master Sun Luc-Tang lists as one of his eight essentials of Baguazhang: 3: The rectum is lifted internally and the tongue touches the hard palate just above the top tooth line on the hard ridge, so as to join the Du Mei with the Ren Mei. p. 76, Eric Montaigue internal Gong-fu pdf So seven different sources (see below for the seventh source from kriya yoga) emphasizing the same essential secret to storing up and condensing the qi in the lower tan tien! Now the final secret is that Master Nan, Huai-chin teaches it’s crucial to hold the breath only after exhale. So then we find Wim Hof teaching the same secret of holding the breath, only after exhale and, only after first charging up the body doing the Quick Fire breathing. Dr. Shin Lin at UC-Irvine, documented, using transcranial Photon Migration Spectroscopy, a great increase in brain oxygen from holding the breath after exhale and after the Quick Fire charge up breathing. So then we discover from science that holding the breath after exhale activates the parasympathetic nervous system. Marc Seifer described the results: “During normal breathing, the reverberations in the aorta arc out of phase with the heartbeat and the system is inharmonious. However, during meditation and when the breath is held, the echo off the bifurcation of the aorta (where the aorta forks at the pelvis to go into each leg) is in resonance with the heartbeat and the system becomes synchronized, thus utilizing a minimum amount of energy. This resonant beat is approximately seven cycles per second, which corresponds not only to the alpha rhythm of the brain but also to the low-level magnetic pulsations of the Earth.” p.49, Transcending the Speed of Light. And 7) from the Kriya Yoga tradition: The vajroli mudra [contracting the lecithin semen] has to be [7] practiced together with the moola bandha (flexing the perineum up) and uddiyana bandha [flexing the diaphragm down] in kumbhaka. Practice of kumbhaka [breath retention after exhale] is necessary while the ejaculation is being held. Retention of the breath and the bindu [amrita kundalini] go hand in hand. Loss of kumbhaka is loss of bindu, and loss of bindu is loss of kumbhaka. “Kundalini Tantra” by Swami Satyananda Saraswati (google pdf link, more on the bindu chakra below). Kriya Yoga is older than Hindu religion, according to Satyananda Saraswati and the secret is that the Lunar Amrita normally flows down from the top of the brain to be “used up by the sun” as ejaculation, and instead the lunar and solar energy need to be united by retaining the lunar energy and purifying it. This is the same secret as Taoist yoga alchemy. Kriya yoga states that, at first the anal sphincter flexing is the key since a normal person can not “flex” their perineum on their own. But as the qi energy increases then you can isolate the perineum to stop loss of qi or prana energy out of the perineum. Swami Satyananda Saraswati states that most people operate with just their Moola or perineum chakra open (the Number 1 person as per Gurdjieff) and so this is the main vibration that can be “listened to” with the Yi or I as intention - to build up the qi energy, to activate the kundalini. So the key to putting the intention in the lower tan tien is by flexing the two largest muscles - the glutes up and diaphragm down, you begin to listen to or feel the vibration of the qi at the perineum to stop its loss, and to sublimate the jing energy up the spine, to the Bindu chakra (more on this below). So in Pranayama training first you train so that the exhale is twice as long as the inhale - so exhale can be up to 60 seconds and then you train in the retention after exhale : the breath is held for several seconds after the exhalation is complete. More on this Bindu Chakra secret below as the “Water Path” as proper intention of the pancreas - the source of worry or too much thinking. breath retraining: When stressed or worried, we tend to tense the muscles of the neck, throat, chest and abdomen. Especially when we tighten the abdominal muscles, we begin to breathe with rapid, shallow breaths primarily in the upper chest region. As the drop in CO2 causes distressing symptoms, we become afraid of the symptoms. Arousal remains high and a vicious cycle of worry and arousal occurs. So the tummo method of Wim Hof as the Quick Fire method of alchemy is to first do very deep reverse breathing which increases the carbon dioxide in the brain, the opposite of hyperventilation, or shallow overbreathing that lowers carbon dioxide levels. Or as another breathing expert explains: But my research leads me to believe that a significant issue or way this is influenced is more about the way and depth the nervous system is stimulated, ie., whether parasympathic/abdominal, breathing, or sympathetic, high chest dominant (over approximately 45%) breathing is engaged. I have observed people breathing intensely for hours without any signs of distress, but rather with signs of bliss and joy. The key to “over-breathing” is more about balance between the high chest and abdominal breathing pattern….. Optimal oxygen uptake is not possible without proper CO2 presence. Alkaline forming nutrition is also relevant…. I have observed -with the help of a pulse oxymeter, that quick [fire]-deep or quick[fire]-shallow breathing, if dominated by belly, back and side breathing, most often increases the level of oxygen in our blood. By gas exchange standards, this would seem to reduce the CO2 ratios, invite constriction and inhibit O2 transfer into the cells but this MAY or MAY NOT not occur depending upon how well the breather is able to relax and stay dominant parasympathetic. Key factors are how well they adapt, tolerate or become accustomed to the increase in physical energy (chi, prana, Qi, pneuma etc). The increased carbon dioxide from the deep strong reverse breathing, along with increased adrenaline, then enables the holding of breath after exhale for a longer time period, as it is the pH balance in the brain that triggers the breath reflex. 2014 study of tumo “heart-yoga” heat: Tumo was associated with a hyperdynamic vasodilated state with increased biventricular performance. We postulate that tumo results in a massive increase in sympathetic activity with activation of brown adipose tissue and marked heat production. The increased heat production may explain the paradoxical vasodilatation in tumo practitioners exposed to subzero temperatures. So then as the breath is held after exhale you get the parasympathetic rebound which then increases the oxygen levels in the brain and stores up the qi or prana energy. As this technique of continued, with 30 deep breaths followed by breath retention after exhale, then with each cycle the oxygen in the brain increases and the parasympathetic nervous system stores up more energy as increased prana or qi, along with sublimating the lecithin that stores up the qi. As the brain qi energy increases it is the brain that controls breathing and body temperature and so as Wim Hof details, he can just use his brain to increase his body heat, as the Tibetan tummo monks also do, through deep relaxation and very slow breathing. Science tells us it is the right side vagus nerve that is the dorsal or back of the rear body as this “reptilian freeze” trance or samadhi energy which then goes up to the right side of the brain and then down to the right side of the heart. Right side Vagus or Wanderer Nerve is secret of Kundalini - heart-right brain-reproductive connection Taoist Alchemy tells us that “Yuan qi” originates from the right side of the heart and Advaita Vedanta tells us, via Ramana Maharshi, that the right side of the heart is the secret pinhole to the formless awareness of the Universe. As the pdf explains, All Disease Comes from the Heart in fact in the earlier Chinese dictionary, from 200 AD, the heart is the Earth organ, after it is able to contain the fire energy. This remarkable 2nd century statement makes reference to a little known fact: in the early stages of Chinese medicine the heart was alternately classified as the earth organ, not the fire organ that it is exclusively described as today. Prof. Heiner Fruehauf The Advaita nondualists will try to claim this is not accurate since Ramana Maharshi explained: “It must be the heart at the right side of the chest since every man, of whatever race and religion and in whatever language he may be saying 'I’, points to the right side of the chest to indicate himself. This is so all over the world, so that must be the place. And by keenly watching the daily emergence of the 'I’ thought on waking and its subsiding in sleep, one can see that it is in the heart on the right side.” In fact what Ramana Maharshi is referring to is that humans are right hand dominant and in actuality this is indicative of the inherent complementary opposites of evolution! Only in Taoist Yoga: Alchemy and Immortality pdf link do we find this secret confirmed - the right side of the heart is the origin of "yuan qi.” Even acupuncture gives the hint (pdf): The first cry activates Qi-Ke – mouth of qi – to circulate Qi and Blood – This is reflected by the pulses at Lu-9 and St-9 – Breathing into the Lungs (for the first time) sets the Heart-Blood in motion – This also creates a pressure in the left atrium, which is greater than that of the right atrium, thereby creating the “Heart barrier,” or Pericardium The qigong master who befriended me actually demonstrated this truth to me - when he left his body and then activated the deep qi on the right side of my heart. He wanted to find out if I was speaking truly from my heart and he said that I was. Of course when I experienced this source of my spirit I stopped speaking as that was also the source of the truth and the end of the need for words. haha. And so as the San Bushmen describe their hearts really do stop when in deep meditation. Harvard Professor Dr. Richard Katz, Boiling Energy: Community Healing among the Kalahari Kung Richard Katz questioned Kau Dwa further on this topic: KATZ: Kow Dwa, you have told me that in kia you must die. Does that mean really die? KAU DWA: Yes. KATZ: I mean really die? KAU DWA: Yes. KATZ: You mean die like when you are buried beneath the ground? KAU DWA: [With enthusiasm]: Yes. Yes, just like that! KATZ: They are the same? KAU DWA: Yes, the same. It is death I speak of. KATZ: No difference? KAU DWA: [Firm but soft]: It is death. KATZ: The death where you never come back? KAU DWA: Yes, it is that bad. It is the death that kills us all. KATZ: But the healers get up, and a dead person doesn’t…? KAU DWA: That is true; healers may come alive again. In 2012 the original qigong master described his experience as well: My heart, the heart rate beating, shooting up so fast. I just couldn’t count how fast it beat. Then to a point it completely stopped, the beating. I don’t feel the pausing with my hand on the heart, and I’m still functioning well. For a second I was worried, what is going on? So I tried to breathe. Wow I feel more room in my lungs to breathe….. I continued to teach…For quite a while I feel nothing in my heart. Then I drove back to the center….May was there, saying hi, how’s it going? Yeah it’s going fine. But I still have no heart beat. I sit down. I look inside. I didn’t call 9/11. To me, this is only my experience. When you get something like that, call 9/11 right away and go to the hospital. I sit down. Why I get this? I didn’t get anything even in meditation. Gradually in 20 minutes. So for a good 2 hours I didn’t feel anything in my heart. So gradually my heart beat slowly comes back…..Then after a few days I ask why I have this? Just a way to open your heart. I say…well this is not a good way! haha. But I experience that and I check myself and I read myself inside and I check out my organs. Everything looks pretty good. There’s no damage or anything. Of course this is a very extreme situation. But I’m telling you everything has a reason. You go into your heart to find the answer and that will tell you on a bigger level…. No fear. In my life I experience so many — people call it bizarre things. People say – well that’s a story, not necessarily real. I don’t care. This is what I experienced. My life. And this is the way I get my heart more and more open and look at things from a different perspective. Taoist Yoga , p. 41 ( “The sun stands for the heart and the moon for the lower tan t'ien cavity (under the navel), respectively symbolized by the dragon (female or negative vitality) [yin qi] and the tiger (the male or positive vitality) [Yuan Qi].” Taoist Yoga , p. 67 “Therefore the secret lies in the prenatal positive vitality [Yuan Qi] that existed before heaven, earth, and all things came into being.” Taoist Yoga , p. 75 “The channel carrying blood and vitality from the right ventricle of the heart is a vein which is linked with the duct of the testicles and the restraining nerve; hence the centre of the right palm is the tiger cavity.” Taoist Yoga , p. 110. As I posted above we now from science that is the parasympathetic nervous system that connects to the testicles and it is the right side vagus nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system that can stop the heart and restart it. By putting the Yi or intention in the lower tan tien, we “listen” or feel the vibration of the perineum that connects to the pineal gland. “The tiger’s roar heard in the left ear reveals the fullness of vitality.” p. 116 This deep Tai Chi Emptiness is called “breathless ecstasy” by Sri Yukteswar, the nirvikalpi samadhi of the energy meridians fully charged up via the deep reptilian “freeze” or “playing dead” vagus nerve activation, connecting the reproductive organs to the heart. Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma: The Innate Capacity to Transform Overwhelming Experiences by Dr. Peter A. Levine gives the secret of this right side vagus nerve: I used to think the paralysis that occurs during extreme events was due to overloading of the sensorymotor cortex with kundalini energy. This may play a part in it, but now I think the paralysis is due to the brainstem stimulating an extreme parasympathetic response to meet the extreme sympathetic activity that is occurring…thus both on and off switches are at full bore. To prevent any further escalation of this duel between the on and off systems the body turns on a massive freeze response [samadhi trance] via the dorsal vagal complex. The dorsal vagus complex (DVC) is a cluster of connected neurons in the brainstem medulla that slows down the energy-expending processes. It is the primative unmyelinated vagus related to the conservation of metabolic resources. Similarly in the alchemy training we get this paradox of a strong sympathetic stress input creating a strong parasympathetic “freeze” reaction - in other words meditation trains us to suppress the sympathetic when normal people trigger the sympathetic.: These behaviors increase, further inhibiting the other system through tuning, and counter-intuitively not only is the opposite system fully suppressed, but stimuli that would normally evoke the opposite system (non-sensitized system) instead evoke a response in the sensitized system (termed reversal phenomena)..It is important to emphasize here, that under normal circumstances the nervous system cannot function this way; SNS and PNS are by nature alternating systems. Strange Bedfellows: Meditations on the Indispensable Virtues of Confusion, Mindfulness and Humor in the Neuroscientific and Cognitive Study of Esoteric and Contemplative Traditions Sept. 2016 pdf So the left ear is right brain dominant and so by emptying out the conceptual word left brain and developing Ting Jing (internal listening in Tai Chi) we build up the White Tiger yuan qi energy. The inner ear connects to the vagus nerve and cerebellum to sublimate the right side vagus jing energy and increase the pineal gland power. As Ramana Maharshi states with his shen (right brain spirit visualization) focused on the right side of his heart then after 15 minutes he felt a strong shock as the qi of the right side of the heart re-started his stopped heart and reactivated his shen as his spiritual self-awareness. Before that he was in a state of pure yuan qi as formless awareness - like a black hole of bliss through the right side of the heart. This shows again how the individual jing is tied to the shen and qi and explains the mystery of how Ramana Maharshi could insist he maintained his individual self even while he was submerged in the impersonal Self of the universe. Ramana Maharshi emphasizes to focus on the conceptual logicial inference of the source of the I-thought in order to ground the energy. We find the same discovery from Gopi Krishna - The focus on the left-side vagus nerve is the myelinated emotional energy to the heart. This is the focus on the “water path,” see below. When a qigong master is able to go into the post-death samadhi state, called nirvikalpa samadhi or “breathless ecstasy” (Sri Yukteswar), then that means the spiritual ego is emptied out, the 7th level of awareness in Mahayana Buddhism, and true enlightenment is achieved. That is the sign of a real spiritual master. As the qigong master who befriended me explained: You can be a qigong master but not necessarily enlightened. That is what he was referring to. For example a qigong master can see out of the head in four directions at the same time! But that doesn’t necessarily mean they are enlightened through a deep heart awakening. The shen as spirit moves in one direction while the qi moves in the other - and the body transcends its physical limitations as it merges with the qi-shen as the quantum formless awareness origin of time-frequency of the Universe. I only had to do 3 breaths utilizing this to fix a lot of issues from former practice(s). outstanding, thank you. I only got through a few paragraphs, but the added info did more than what I was looking for. getting my body very hot and my hands cool, and clearing the head. absolutely blowing my heels and legs up. amazing. You have no idea how much you have just helped me. Or you do, because you utilize this. either way

tou·ché

You have that PDF about fixing the issue with energy leakage that causes women to shake their legs? I have come to my own conclusions and what not but I would appreciate a link to how to fix giving too much energy out. I have experienced a lot of the "women shaking their legs" thing and i slowed down my practice because of it. I used LMP for some time and found it effective, but there was no actual solution for this phenomena outside of "focus more," which actually did not help

Spirits, or, other live characters that dont have your POV, deal and talk in exact ratios. You will get a 1:1 response. Your brain remembers what it activated precisely. The micro cosmic orbit is super helpful. So is separating the internal functions of emotion and math. Kundalini is good for eradicating old pathways and conditioning. Logic is used to reprogram with the kundalini. Don't be addicted to current chemical ratios your body uses. Pushing the kundalini back into the lower dantian is super helpful as well.

This post was quite helpful in acquiring my bearings. I would think it likely, especially if we are all in different "homeworlds" as our base of operations/experience, that shadow beings or yin vehicles are serving us primarily, or usually two beings at once. Similar to how we experience. Technically we would be yin vehicles as well, making us shadow beings with yang cores. Surely any being that is a constant pesterance must be of us initially, either in this world or another. Like gears in a machine, or a child of our mind. They likely use fear to get our attention, probably so they can carry out their function, or be come organized in themselves.

Good to hear. What does a practice log generally entail, or, what does this community want out of them?

Hey, I would love a practice log

Hello. Glad to be here. I'm just now getting back into the practice with intensity after a short break. Everything is running and going exceedingly well. I use a combination of techniques and methods ive picked up in various places, and some I've came up with. Some of it is freeform. Most of my focus is on the lower dantian. I would love a member log as well.
