  1. KAP SUCKS

  2. You are all delusional!

    I don't ask myself any of these questions, as meditation helps me to be more present in whatever I may doing. Meditation helps one to achieve a kind of absorption in what he/she is doing. So instead of skiing and thinking of the homework I have, things i have to do, I am completely at peace at what I am doing. I can than take the feeling of skiing, jumping out of planes, that extreme adrenaline rush and fun vibe and run energy and make every experience, whether it be sitting in class or watching tv just as enjoyable. It's not as much something I can explain but something you would have to experience and judge for yourself.
  3. Blockage Removing Techniques

    I took K1 and K2 with Tao and am taking PSD 205 with you starting October.
  4. You are all delusional!

    I can play the piano, ski, go skydiving, etc... but the one thing for me that makes all of these things even more enjoyable is meditation. For me it's like taking my life and amplifying every experience so I can have more fun, more love, more happiness, more peace. Maybe meditation not something for you, and I respect that, but to me it has had a profound impact. I wish you the very best in your life pursuits, and one day you may find that meditation makes math and science more enjoyable to you.
  5. Blockage Removing Techniques

    It does not feel as much as a ball of chi as much as I would say an iceberg in my free-flowing ocean of energy. It does not feel as much emotional as it does physical in nature and somewhat hot and it causes me to cough a lot. I really can't tie it to anything as I had been opening up a lot and my power chakra issues had been dissolving and nothing happened that would have made me feel powerless. However, it just felt like all the blockages got lumped together when I was practicing secret sword and this energy pierced my 1st and 2nd chakras. I usually ejaculate 2-4 times a week. And it is not like an issue that I am feeling nervous or anxiety, as I have even before KAP been able to dissolve these issues. It just feels like everything has gotten stored here and it's something I have to work through, although it's been difficult b/c I feel like I have made no progress in releasing this in 4 months.
  6. EQUINOX SHAKTIPAT TUES 11pm EST

    I didn't feel anything too out of the ordinary during the transmission. But I couldn't go to sleep till 5 am and felt like a little kid waiting for Santa(so full of energy). I feel the energy a lot more the days after. Thanks again Santi, I look forward to PSD this october
  7. KAP SUCKS

    You should not make claims about something you know nothing about. Yes Dr. Morris did pass at the age of 62, but it was not because of any fault of his system. Did your grandparents heal hundreds of people after Katrina? I have been practicing KAP for more than a year and have experiecned major healing in terms of fixing chakra imbalances, blockages, etc...
  8. SHAKTIPAT NEW MOON meditation tonight

    Does one need a certain type of skype because I try clicking and no chat comes up in Skype.
  9. SHAKTIPAT NEW MOON meditation tonight

    Thanks Santi. I find my body starts to vibe an hour or two after shaktipat.
  10. Who is the KAP voice in here?

    I think $99 or $100
  11. Who is the KAP voice in here?

    Vajrasattva was joking. Vajrasattva is Santiago Dobles, one of the teachers of the method.
  12. Who is the KAP voice in here?

    hahahahhahhaha
  13. Who is the KAP voice in here?

    You can do a search as this has been discussed several times. Both my brother and i have taken the course and have loved it. I took the course w/ Tao and he's a great instuctor, and my brother took the course with Santi and can vouch for him.
  14. What's the story with the 5 Tibetan Rites?

    It stands for kundalini awakening process. These are seminars, either in person or long distance, run by either Tao Semko or Santiago Dobles(Vajrasattva). I have taken the course as has my brother and many others on this site. I highly recommend it.
  15. Absorbing Earth Prana?

    I've done similar meditations around trees and they are very grounding.
  16. Absorbing Earth Prana?

    I slept on the ground in alaska for 2 weeks this year. Didn't notice any increase in energy, only achy bones from sleeping on the cold, hard alaskan ground.

  18. Chakra Diagnosis

    There is a chakra about 6 inches above the crown chakra and there is another one about three feet above the crown charka. The Knight's templar visualization in KAP 2 goes into opening these ups. As for opening the lower chakras I would say just continue practicing KAP. As your energy increases, so too will your abilitity to feel the emotions you might not be able to at this time. It took me sometime to really feel the water slow magnetic feeling of the second chakra, as I am by nature a more fiery person. I also did not know what a real earthy root feeling felt like, now I can. Also, there have been times when it feels like I have gotten delayed responses from Shaktipats, as kundalini energy and opens a person only when he/she is ready. All the best in your practices.
  19. What Exactly Is A Kundalini Experience?

    Have you experienced this?
  20. The Little Orbit Does the Trick.

    Never heard about this but I like it a lot. REally opens the lower chakras. Real nice vibrations. Much thanks : )
  21. Global Full Moon Shaktipat sept 3rd 11pm est

    Thank you very much Santi. It was once again a great experience. Also I've taken KAP 1 and 2 w/ Tao and was wondering how many weeks the PSD class is because it's not listed as having an end date on the schedule.
  22. Taoism and the dark night on the soul

    I am currently going through something that is described above. I started KAP roughly a year ago and had some power chakra issues that were gradually dissolving. It got to the point where I was feeling like a million bucks and the issues I had and blockages were pretty well dissolved. However, the past 2 months it feels like there has been a physical blockage, not really emotional, in my third chakra. This happened after a lot of clearing involving the first two charkas in which it felt like a rod of energy had moved all the lower chakra gunk up into the power charka. I can feel kriyas and the kundalini energy gradually dissolving this blockage. Right now it's kind of like there is an iceberg in a free flowing ocean. I just try to surrender to the blockage, do some abdominal massages, and keep up w/ my practices. Some heart chakra throughout my body also helps. Pietro thanks for bringing this up b/c it describes precisely what happened to me and I haven't read anything that documented this type of occurrence.
  23. ... but I like my ego...

    Never thought of it that way in terms of yin and yang. Makes sense. Thanks for the post.
  24. Trying to contact KAP people

    You can also do the secret smile that santiago posted on here a few monthes ago. It is a good warm-up and both my brother and I started doing it prior to taking the KAP course. All the best in your future KAP endeavors, it has been quite an experiience for me.
