WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ME??

I meant Grants in Herpetology. Good guess!

Max posted the instructions at one point. But they are gone now, so I don't see a reason why one can't do it from the written directions. I haven't touched it, and I probably won't touch it until my body feels comfortable and is open enough to sit in full lotus for 72 minutes straight. Nothing should be forced.

I would've loved if he talked about his personal motivations, his own approach to Kunlun, etc. But I guess that's not for the public really. It's interesting that he says he is now into contemplation... lol... GIH must be chuckling somewhere.

@Paradise, I guess it is the difference between the path of action and non-action. The path of action can consciously guide one to clear the negative karma of the past, through conscious giving, visualizing compassion and sacrifice, or eradicating bad thoughts/intentions. If one does enter the path of non-action too early, mistaking it for the ultimate reality of sorts, he/she will simply have a "rougher" time letting those habits and past seeds play out, if he recklessly lets what be what be, like a dam suddenly broken without warning, the process will come gushing at him at an unbearable rate. There is the danger of falling into various traps of the ego that the body and the mind are not prepared for along these stages, the various bliss one experiences are indeed hindrances, one can easily cling to another entity. It really depends on one's choice.

@ Birch I'm not sure whether you are reading or listening to Krishnamurti. I didn't really, truly, begin to appreciate him until I heard his voice. I still go back when I feel lazy because his intensity is unmatched.

Every journey is his own, yes, so why do you make the difference at all between walking and talking? Why do you feel like there is even a certified way of explaining things? I don't think that it is a waste. You should just treat people as your nature is meant to do. Past karmic ties will simply play out, even if it means that anger or hate should arise (but now they wouldn't be anger or hate) and no new karma, good or bad, is created. It is, however, important to realize that this is a choice one's consciousness creation makes, that it is neither superior, godly, merging with the greater whatever, or even enlightenment. One simply chooses to live this way because well, you got tired of living the other way, which is that you grasp an identity or an ego and live in duality. Sometimes when I read your posts I feel as if you have a condescending attitude towards those who are not on the "path" which I think (now, that may be your way of getting through some things and even effective at this point, so I am not at all telling you that it is wrong, but perhaps a hinderance to your larger goals) is a feeling that shouldn't even arise. As I noted before, if you are simply as you are, all phenomena that arises is spontaneously harmonized, whether it be someone of ignorance or enlightenment. One shouldn't attach values to either. It's not that excessive talk leads to confusion and frustration, it's the attachment to the words and concepts that create further disharmony.

@ Ralis Reality is whatever is experienced. @ Birch True compassion arises without a center. It shines effortlessly, it is a state of existence. Cultivating is not cultivating a unit of "self" in phenomena, it is cultivating total experience of reality which is you, it is cultivating being, like the flame turning into the sun and into a star, its radiance gives by simply being as is, sentient beings are led to enlightenment just by the presence of the master, and to him, all phenomena become spontaneously liberated, all extremes are instantaneously harmonized within the Tao, everything rests in between the states of being and non-being: non-graspable, ever flowing, the bliss is continuous and accommodating to each and every guest who yearns for the light.

HARH!! This view shouldn't even arise. The righteous do no know righteousness, true virtue is without virtue.

Yeah I would also like to know what it is you practice and what your goal, purpose, reason is for practicing if you do.

Good for you. Did you kick back and have a beer after? I mean you know, a man's got to celebrate!

Meh.

You blow up. .

Listen to ShaktiMama. I'm stupid.

I'm speaking out of my ass.

More ass.

assness.

ass.

You have an obsession with woman. All you do is want to fuck them, lose your virginity or whatever, and take from them. And so when you see a woman the fact that they are a WOMAN is the thing you are most concerned about, obsessed over. You are approaching them with a parasite mindset, one of need and "taking" and not giving. Who would want to start any sort of relationship with a person with such an attitude? Then truly they'd be self-destructive, and so prove your point. But since they DON'T, your entire thing about women wanting "pain" is flawed. Learn to be satisfied by yourself. Treat woman as you fellow "human beings" who are on the path just as you are. I doubt you read any of these replies anyway, there's been enough advice here. Stop spamming.

For me, the jerky movements become a flowing dance. The movement itself is blissful and then stillness.

I am starting a gathering of people to share their knowledge in regards to cultivation, energetics, metaphysics, the mystical, and all that voodoo stuff. Soooooooooooo.... Anyone got a good name?
