lol, I Love E-Prime, and thank you for pointing out my Absolutist statement

Ya mu I am sorry It came off so abrasive. I do not know how to properly caption peoples quotes from other pages, and I think I bundled you to much into Fizix's attitude as your first reply was agreeing with part of his first reply. You were much more "the way I see it..." or "IMO" than I gave you credit for. But still I do not believe I was entirely unfounded in a small percentage of what I was saying. This is why: Fizix said: ahahaha this old trick...i am not denying the possible application of qi in anyway, but this trick in particular is done from the hand's heat emission, do your research arm chair scientists. Athanor, I'm sorry but your theory as to why heat isn't a factor is fundamentally flawed and laughable to say the least. I'd suggest you stop worrying about a physical proof/demonstration to show your friends your "power" and focus on more worthwhile goals that do not inflate and perpetuate the ego. As I see it there is already an Absolutist, Authoritarian and downright condescending tone in his statement. I Feel that in this communication tug of war to be Right, and to Take a position above someone else, once someone Has started putting someone else down, It often starts a frenzy of activity with anyone else jumping on that agrees with the aggressors perspective. That was probably not your Intention at all and again I am Sorry If I miss read you. But here is your Reply: View Postfizix, on 16 March 2010 - 01:18 PM, said: ... I'd suggest you stop worrying about a physical proof/demonstration to show your friends your "power" and focus on more worthwhile goals ... 100% agree. Qi emission is for higher level goals such as healing others. No sense in wasting energy on toys. IMO the above example is heat and not qi. I Feel there is still a small element here Of you joining Fizix, and telling Athonar how it is... 100% agree. Qi emission is for higher level goals such as healing others. No sense in wasting energy on toys. And there stills feels to me like there Is a subtle -I am older and wiser so you need to listen to me - quality to your later posts, I think the rest is my over reaction to Fizix and then a miss reading of your reply to someone else which I thought was directed at Ath. Respect and Good will, and I really do like what you contribute here... Thanks for being here. Seth. P.S. if you dig up my older posts you will probably find crazy violations of what I have been describing as a better way to communicate...

Wow, I had thought We wasted a lot of time here in some of the threads... But wait a minute! this is Bullshido we are talking about here, every one of the opinions expressed there is completely and empirically 100% accurate. Oh shit... we are screwed...

Fizix (to me)you are coming across as a condescending 12 year old pumped up on Ritalin. Please Fizix read your original High Horse holier than thou Post and then your reply, where you denounce anything that builds the ego, and notice the Massive Ego that is already there. When you offer your Sagely advice in a way that demands that he accept your authority, and then he dares to have his own opinion, and you act all hurt and rejected, and accuse him of being young and inexperienced (which he is)and try to make him feel stupid or guilty...? Whats the deal? I personally think you owe him an apology for trying to enforce a teacher student relationship he hasn't agreed to. Thanks Sloppy Zhang for adding some sanity to this thread. Athanor, Go for it. Just because a skeptic can set up tricks doesnt mean all demonstrations are tricks. That White Tiger thing looked cool. Have you seen Johny Chang Doing that stuff with his student? Fizix should probably give him a lecture, By Putting him self in the Teacher position (without you agreement) and talking down to you he is trying to take energy from you to strengthen his own Ego, even though Fizix would never do that. Love Seth.

lol, I practised Falun every day, usually twice a day for a couple of years, and also maintained other practises in that period. The only negative experience was the Falun Gong fanatics telling me I was an Evil practitioner when I said I wouldnt stop mixing my practice. Go ahead. Mix it up. Have fun.

Hey Bums, I am curious about the position That Johny Chang is sitting in in the photo of Him meditating in the forest. There is also a pic of Wang Liping in the same position. Its the one in full Lotus, with the palms facing up, forearms at the solar plexus level, fingers nearly touching in front of solar plexus... You know the one, Looks way cool... Does anyone know any details on the position? I have been using it, and all I can say is Man! what I experience so far is that the Lotus creates the strong upward pull of earth energy, while the arm hand position is a really potent recieving gesture for Heavenly chi... when I focus on my LDT it light up so fast its crazy, and my MCO prety much just takes care of it self. Hows it sound? I have read nothing on this posture and would love to hear anything about it. Am I in danger of spontaneously combusting if I dont learn it from a teacher? I do not know how to post the photos, or I would have. Sorry Feel free to anyone...

I have to say that the hottest Lodges i have been in were the traditional ones run by Native American elders. the first one ever that i went to was so hot that it split the skin on my scalp in many places. lol. I much prefer the new agey ones to that. These days I do them with friends who were trained (and given permission to run them) with Archie Fire Lame Deer and with a couple of other elders. I Have to say that the Lodge I did after my Fathers passing was a profound aid to the grieving process. For unpacking emotional wounds the Lodge is excellent. Unfortunately I knew the two people in Australia who have died in a Lodge. One was bitten by a brown snake on the way in and thought it was a spider bite... The Other was Human negligence... Friends who are/were very serious Lodgers, did an Intense period of fasting and lodging in the Australian desert, as they had done two years earlier. The Guy running it (not for money) unknowingly picked a site with bore water that (also unknown to him) was really high in salt. My Friend died while being helicoptered to hospital from Salt poisoning brought on by the fasting and Heat of the lodge... They are not really that dangerous as long as you are careful, but do be careful. A'ho Mitaque Oaysen!

I have mine but they cause no problems for me, if they did id have them out in a jiffy... Are they called wisdom teeth because they cause us (or enough of us) pain which we then learn to live with, which somehow makes us wise?

I like to think that Objectivity is a delusion created by anyone who is not comfortable with not being able to feel they they are 'Right' or that they have found the 'Truth'... This need to feel safe and secure is very deep, and if we have a sturdy grip on 'The supreme Truth' our sense of self feels less in danger from an extremely subjective Universe... But who knows?

Awesome, I will be there Late Feb... Ill pm you sometime in Jan when I can tell you something solid...

Thanks everyone, lol at McDonalds, So Lipings is part of a movement, and Chang may not be In Full Lotus... Lol at Me Do not worry about Mo Pai as I am in know way trying to Be Mo Pai, I just tried that position as it looked Interesting, and Wow! - It feels great! Its a potent position... Have Fun

Rofl! I Love you Biff

Hmmm All my Girl Friends have been 'Hot', I would even go so far as to say very hot... and their creativity levels were mostly through the roof. The blessed partner who now graces my life is constantly creating things, she paints, sews, has a ceramics major. I don't really know what else to say to such a ridiculous Idea?

Absolutely.

lol I absolutley freaked out when i got diagnosed and thought to my self "There is no Fucking way I am having that!" (excuse the language but that is what i thought) As I couldnt move, cause the fever clamps up all your tendons, gives you a migrane, no appitite, the sweats, and a head to foot rash, all I could do was stay in bed, so yeah I visulaised like crazy all night. I imagined the fever was hamburgers and wild Hell Dogs would come up out of the ground and tear it apart, then the remains would turn to sand and a wind would blow the rest away, then heavenly beings or sometimes aliens would rebuild me out of light. It was usally this or along these lines. I also did middle pillar exersize a bit or LBRP (in my mind) and imagined banishing the fever from my space. and during the less active times i would just keep the image going of sweeping light flowing back and forth from head to feet and back... so I was doing daily Middle pillar and LBRP at that time but I have to admit i rarely imagined demon dogs consuming parts of me...

I cured myself of ross river fever in 1 night. Just visualized all night my body being washed and swept with white light. I dont know if that is a miracle or just mind power but to me that is pretty cool, especially as I have never had a relapse of ross river fever, cause normally no one ever really gets over ross river...

Under attack from what? what have your senses told you? there are lots of rituals and you probably know plenty being the Feisty Witch that you are but also help him 'decide' deep in his gut that what ever it is - HAS NO RIGHT - to affect him. Some people seem to be lost causes till they can get this deep down in their molecules. If he can 'Know' this he can deal with any hostile psychic force no problem Good luck. and Karmic brownie points to you for helping...

I wrote this as a reply to another bum but have modified it for this thread The Psychic world Is not black and white. Nothing kills the ability to 'receive' clear information nearly as quickly as the fear of being wrong, and the need to prove. here is some 'Anecdotal' evidence... For years I had a deep pocket in my bag with no chance of me seeing its contents as I put my hand in. Inside I had 5 pens. all the same make, size, shape etcetera. The only difference was the colour- red, blue, black, green and purple. when I stuffed my hand down the pocket I would 'seefeel' the colour of the pen I was holding in my forehead. I did this hundreds of times and was never wrong. I came to rely on it very quickly rather than pulling them all out together to get the one i wanted. One day I told someone about it and she said "Do it." the second I put my hand in the bag I felt all the worries and thoughts pile in... what if I get it wrong? will she think less of me? and I really wanted to show her I could and Have her believe in me... (she was my girlfriend at the time) And I just couldnt get myself out of the way and got it basicly became a guess, i saw no colour in my head and I pulled out the wrong one. laugh.gif I went back to doing my sensing quietly after this and still enjoy it. I have experienced situations like this so many times over the years that I know I could never do the randy challenge or prove it to anyone of a hostile disposition and would not even try. I have to be really relaxed or at least un-conflicted to get good information. Its sad to see many good Psychics fall into the 'Prove it' trap, fail then get labelled 'Frauds' when many of them do great work. Mind you, on the occasional moment when I am feeling Hyper confident (cosmicly expansive) I have done smart ass things in front of un believers and left them with their jaws hanging, but this condition cant be arranged for a lab. I dont think these rules apply to the energy arts so much... I think if you have the energy you can use it, like a hand or leg. Johny Chang had no problem zapping the scientists, and probably many people here have been able to give skeptics an experience of energy. This doesnt require a clear head to nearly the same degree as getting psychic impressions. I have tested my abilities rigorously for my self. For years I evaded the transport authorities, by only ever buying a train ticket on the days I 'felt' I would see ticket Inspectors. Every single one of the few days I bought a ticket, inspectors hopped on and asked to see them. This is a great way to put yourself on the line as a fine here is 400$ and you get to see really quickly If the info you get is good. I also think this fine tunes your Danger sence to a great degree... How do you 'Prove' something like this? Walking barefoot in the city for years was also great. every time a patch of broken glass came up I got to practice using my will to not get cut. I would just 'Know' that I would be fine. If my knowing wavered well that would mean a different story- usually but not always. The point is that when my Knowing did not waver I never not once received the tiniest scratch. My triumph in this was actually living next to a huge prickle field that was so full of prickles that one unconscious step was guaranteed to give the foot a prickle. Ouch! eventually I was able to make it over the whole field without getting a prickle but that took a while. often i would get half way before fear would make my will waver... These kinds of exercises really help develop you Knowing and will. This enhanced faculty will subtly improve so many areas of your life. There are so many things we can prove to ourselves that are so worth the effort, and that make the 'Prove it' screams of the skeptics or the people that want to believe but are not willing to find out for themselves seem so ridiculous. Remember how many tests for psychics done with each other in a warm friendly environment, (free of performance anxiety) get really high results. These results always get HooHaa'd by the scientists as un empirical. I think that it is possible that just being near an unbeliever clouds your ability to hear straight, or at least when their attention is on you and they are waiting for you to fail and thus support their universe view. Some times a really good psychic comes out and is confident enough to score really well in a lab, but eventually as more labs demand further studies, and other groups say "that cant be right, we want to test it over here" They inevitably fail, and the final report is all anyone listens to. Its like the science world is just waiting to here the 'Fail' word so it can close its doors and Minds again. Don't buy into this crap. Find out for your self. Dont let some Lab coat tell you 'He' is the one who is responsible for you ability to Validate your self or give you a stamp of approval. They are just doing what the Church did with the priests telling us that our relationship and experience of the Divine was to be mediated by them. Don't give an outside source power over your Inner Life. We dont need 'Their' Proof! The most amazing stories that humans share with each other of the things that touched them or brought magic into their lives, that we enrich each others Lives with, are all anecdotal and have the real power. All Shamanistic cultures Highly valued these stories as Critical to the health of the culture and the species. Please feel free to Share any of the wonderful 'Anecdotal Evidence' you have in your experiences, and lets leave the empirical evidence for all the 'Proove it' shouters and Spiritually Dead zombies, to flail about looking for and never find. Poor them. My life Gets better and better, and I hope yours does as well.

Thanks Durkhrod, you are absolutly correct. In no way would i recomend looking into the sun. for me it happened naturally under extreme conditions, and even other people who did the same fast did not have this experience. You can in no way 'Make' your eyes be ready for something like this. I already have a competitive friend who did the same fast, and had heard my experience and wanted to do the same thing. he went blind in one eye. Please note I did tell him how carefull i was in starting to sun gaze as I was really scared of hurting my eye sight, but he threw common sense to the wind and tried to force it. Sorry, I should have written more on this...

Hi Bums Recently my chi sensitivity has really Increased. I can feel a lot more Chi than ever before and It somehow feels thicker or closer to my body. For a long time i have been able to move it around and have it open my heart or sexual energy or charge a centre but now if i send it somewhere that area opens, warms, and loosens really quickly... Its like it opens all the capillaries and increases blood flow. I am using it on my tendons really well. Some are habitually tight, like around the atlas and are finally just opening easily and leaving a warm feeling of flushed space... And my joints are responding really well, it like they are becoming smoother and more open? Also I can sit in lotus for round an hour now without my feet going numb which is a really large jump for me, as I move chi through my legs and feet, i feel Blood follows with all the capillaries and veins opening in response. If i think of heavenly chi, I get an instant surge of light and bliss running down my central channel, If I think of earth chi, my feet buzz and start to warm then swell, and my LDT is usally warm or Hot. This has mainly come from LDT breathing, healing work, mild Mco practice, prayer, sexual cultivation and spending as much time as i can being really Present to the great Openness... Any Ideas on what next? It hasn't reached the Marrow yet... But it is definitely changing my tendons... Any warnings, or things I am missing? Good advice? Thanks Friends.

Awesome Thanks! I have not been wearing them much any way as the seem to interfere a little with my conductivity with the earth. I cant wait to learn the Inn's and out's of all this stuff.

When I tried to go breatharian I did 7 days with no food or water, and I stared straight into the summer sun for hours straight every day. I was like my brain was drinking bliss from the sun through my eyes. I was naturally very cautious about staring at the sun, as I had never heard of it, its just that every glance sun ward sent an orgasmic surge through my brain. slowly I realised it was not hurting my eyes so i just went with it. My eyes are great by the way. I followed the nothing fast week with 3 more weeks drinking water and juice and the sun staring slowly diminished. I stopped after this because Food was just smelling So good! Its amazing how sharp your senses can get...

I do a little Yang Mian Freeform most days but I have not really been doing much M.A. I am thinking of going to some Systema as they have just moved round the corner. I have been mainly doing TanTien Meditation and some Spring forrest. I also just sit or stand and do chi breathing in and out from the Universe. My feet have been getting almost uncomfortably hot when I am wearing shoes. Is this normal? It feels great bare foot... I swam in a freezing river for roung half an hour the other day and got out shaking cold. I did one breath drawing chi into my Tan Tien and it just lit up so hot, about a min later my feet were hot as well. Seems good but it doesnt come out my hands like that. My girlfriend says they are hot but they dont feel hot to me, not like my feet. I got her to feel them too before and then a minuit later to tell me if they really were hot and she was really suprised how hot they were. Could I be loosing energy out my feet? I know the L.T.T. heat has been adding a super charge to my second chakra -if you know what I mean , but It doesnt seem to be moving much higher at the moment? (by it self that is...) thanks again everyone

They use a variety of meditations where you count your pulse and breath with it (like breath in for 8 beats, out for 8 beats). the book 'Energize your heart' has quite a few ecg graphs before and during the meditation showing the Increase in HRV. I quite like some of their meditations

Wow, this reply was a fat lot of nothing. When did i say i do remote viewing? I wouldnt care less whats on your screen, probably naked lady's Dont lose too much jing alright. Your brain needs it to read someones arguments properly. Do you think in an un Black and white universe that there could even be a really small chance, of a psychic being quite good at certain things and that maybe those skills were just not really compatible with lab testing? Seriously. How do i test the met ticket thing? If in the year i bought 50 tickets and only got inspected 15 times I would put it down to wish fulfillment. But say I only bought 15 say and then only got inspected 15 times, Is not that a fairly good way to measure for one self, ones accuracy? You dont have to believe me, and it seems obvious you do not, but what things can you prove to your self? What do you think of anecdotal evidence? do you believe in psychic function? Have you seen psychic stuff Proved? if you haven't seen it proved does believing in it in the first place come from anecdotal evidence you have red?
