  1. The Cool Picture Thread

    nice. conference freewheeler caught in a moment of peace?
  2. Ridcule of energy practice

    Very beautful thread, very beautiful questions and reflections upon esp loved the mature insight on expectations... when you have made enough space inside through emptiness meditation to hold this awareness in the space between your solar plexus and your heart you may be able to enjoy the freedom of movement without measurement.
  3. Sometimes I am really surprised at what I read. I and a lot of other practitioners certainly enrolled into a medic qigong course that takes many years to excel in..and we were instantly introduced to the basic fact that we were going to work first at least one year on the 12 ordinary, then for severalyears on the 8 extraordinary, and still put in many more for advanced levels. Aware of the fact that without combining this with classic acupuncture studies we still are dealing with fairly superficial info and have to study on our own to gain more insight into the material. The combination of taichi..the working on natural elements..in chias systematic innerorgan related alchemy practise esp the kan and li process..sublimation of sexual energy...bliss..the foundationing of core strength and breathwork in tkd and static luohan and the stilling of mindand emptiness through sitting and forgetting..the spontaneous symptomatic expression whic at best leads you diretly to blockages or love...all has been tremendously rewarding I've been a sushumna addict ever since I was shaken by the power of this hose..and have had to deal with a serious setback karmically due to lack of overall maturity. I say look at the golden flower the merkaba instead..for a start feeling neauseous, may have said something wrong? or right?
  4. The Serpent - Satan?

    maybe it is not only about kundalini rising but also about what you are after she has risen
  5. Ancient Songs of the TAO

    Thank you for posting this site with the trial sound. Listened to it twice, it immediately hit my wrists and my ankles and the overtones with sound like "blades make wind" expanded me, vocal sinking halftones grounded, and the music alltogether pulled the left and right together in a state of harmony. I dont know much about these things but it was lovely.
  6. Nuts about The Tao

    rainbow vein... wax on wax off. nothing to go nuts about.
  7. Personally I am not convinced that intent comes from the higher level self even if I can feel it ignite all the energycenters. Breathing though,.. seems to come from a higher spiritual source than mine own. Grateful I am. And even moreprofound the breath througthepalms..and thepores.But then again..that may not count for much. I do not know the Universe. I live and act as if I do believe exactly what you describe, and I have praised intent what defines the target of the arrow before..but still..something..seems funny. interesting really..seems to me to be a mindful crossroad btw my ego and something else
  8. Pleiades

    I know there is a lot of "info" out on the Pleiades but I just discovered that a Star there is called Electra. Maybe some TBum knows Electra? I would love to learn as much as possible about this star...? (and not the myth around the electra/oedipus etc complex thank please & thank you)
  9. Pleiades

    thank you for all for pointing directions. The Cherokee Rattlesnake Constellations... I had recently enjoyed the stories of the dogon people and have an all too soft spot for synchronicity I also focus on Electras particular vibrations. So very attractive to me.
  10. Pleiades

  12. Pleiades

    I believe you have some information about Electra? Thanks for noticing the pm setting. I mostly navigate by intuition. Thank you for your patience. I've learned a lot today surfing, very curious of what you have to tell BTW your PM system aint working either ))))) but I hope I fixed mine G
