Ya Mu

Breath control is not needed - if one starts thinking about using the breath the mind is not still. In my system we do 3 deep breaths letting each slowly out the mouth then stop using the mind with breath and breath naturally. The key to "watching" is to be as a third party observer and practice non-indulgence in the thoughts. The more non-indulgence one practices the deeper the stillness. Yes, MCO should be after one has created dan tian. Funny you should mention that. One student of mine sits to meditate then all of a sudden comes out of it in exactly one hour - remembers nothing in between. But does Stillness-Movement during the session. When he said he though he had a problem and couldn't do Stillness-Movement I laughed to myself. He is a total natural. What folks should remember about this subject is that everyone is different in ability to still the mind. About the only real truth that I know is that with practice it gets easier.

Agree, totally different. My understanding is that it has been classically applied (moxa to st36) coming out of winter into spring. But I use the point all the time with people. Quit doing moxa though - stinks too much for me and difficult to ventilate properly in clinic. Good effect,though. Direct qi projection works as well.

Just say NO to toxic dispersant. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/may/21/oil-spill-deepwater-horizon-obama

They are now capturing 5K barrels a day with the sippy cup straw so the original estimates publicized by BP were not even close. http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-05-20/bp-increases-gulf-oil-leak-recovery-flow-continues-correct-.html

I agree, what is - IS. This should not be made into a left wing right wing issue. But isn't fox news the only real news station? I use a news aggregator for headlines and I don't so far think it is slanted in any particular political direction. http://www.newsmap.jp/ If I want the full story I will dig deeper. This effects everyone, BP has obviously lied about the total amount of oil coming out of the well.

BP forced to provide live video (not yet available). "I think this is a problem we are going to have to live with for years rather than months," 70,000 not 5,000 barrels a day

Our medical qigong treatment does call for the eyes to be directly treated as well as the surrounding acupoints. But we always pull the qi down and out through K1.

We can make gigantic shifts and sometimes great instantaneous leaps BUT... I think most of us (I know I did) forgot to get it signed off, before we came to earth, that everything would be easy. If I have to come here again I am going for the easy clause. A teacher once told me, when I was bitching, moaning and groaning, that it would be very difficult to climb a smooth mountain.

Oil Spill Much Larger Than Previously Reported 10 Miles Long

Possibly (most probably) a migraine and nothing to do with "3rd eye" or 4th or 5th eye.

Yes, see it all the time folks immediately want to jump to the esoteric when it is nothing but physical.

Insane, isn't it? Makes me wonder how much more of this crap people are going to put up with. I believe BP will never pay all the damages.

Agree, I have been "preaching" to non-listeners (wasting my time & breath) about the need for re-construction of a national train system for the last 30 years or so. I was so disillusioned by the degradation of the national train system and the inability of people to see that it was the only viable (immediately) future for mass transportation of people & goods. The big rigs traveling the roads burning fuel at the rate of 4-6 mpg is totally insane.

Amen. One of the vast wastes of energy that we have is living in one area and purchasing products from another area that could easily be grown locally. The "family farm" has been discouraged by big-AG interests; this has really put our country in a bad way because of the billions of dollars in oil that we use to transport goods across the country. Some solutions that can help overall (won't stop the spill, though): 1) Grow as much of your own food as possible and encourage others to do so as well. This will cut down on transportation oil use. 2) Invest in solar hot water. The typical family's utility bill is about 30% hot water. Solar hot water pays for itself. 3) Utilize passive solar design in any new building and super insulate. 4) use led lighting in your house; retrofit existing house with more insulation and seal it as well as possible. [2),3) and 4) will cut down on oil used to transport those billions of tons of coal to the power plants.] 5) Build or buy an EV (Nissan is supposed to ship early next year). Most people commute less that 40 miles. Slowly purchase solar panels to build a charging station. Design your system so that you can get started with minimum expense then add to it as you can. 6) Purchase your food in bulk. If most did this the use of oil to make all the little plastic containers and transport them individually would be cut. There are other things but these are some of the things that certainly could make a difference.

My experience is that the "transmission" can make the difference between 15 years of cultivation and 6 months of cultivation. Students of my system are usually able to project qi to others for healing after the first day of receiving the awakening projection. It can be consolidated as early as 3-6 months to start healing others full time. This does not include the full transmissions and teachings, however. I encourage students to spend approximately 60 days with me to receive the full spectrum of teachings. This has been rounded off to a 500 hr certification program. This does depend on: 1) Who you are 2) If you go home and IMMEDIATELY practice what was taught DAILY. edit: typo

I had a feeling about you many moons ago. We talked in dreamtime. Very good! A lot of things that we accept as normal and everyday common are not the everyday common that most others interact with. I hope that the others who are capable and trained in this way will step up to the plate - this type of healing is needed now.

I was hoping you would come around and contribute to this thread. I have been waiting for a thread on this to pop up but finally decided it wasn't going to. I like what you post, but I do think the time scale of balance is going to be a long time on our scale.

Yes, tough to interpret - many possible interpretations. I just say "it was needed". And yes, there was a deliberate and conscious qi projection that I did while I was there.

Yes, it absolutely can happen. I wrote of this experience in my book. I distinctly remembered the event from childhood. When I was 9 years old I had an experience where all of a sudden I knew far more than I knew, felt far more than I felt for a brief point in "time"; at the time I was under assault. When I was an adult, during dreamtime I awoke as my 9 year old self (but still knowledgeable of the NOW me) and chased off that which was bothering me. This type of thing has happened many times.

Pretty simple. I consider any student that shows up to be a "good" student. They, instead of just reading a book, or talking about it, have gone to the trouble, time & effort, to attend class and learn the real thing. Really good! And, in reference to what Trunk pointed out, a student really doesn't have to believe one single word I say. All they have to do is be open to acceptance of who they really are. The "believing" knowing comes about as a self-evident thing - not because I said so. THIS is transmitted to the student and via raising of the energy body vibration it becomes known.

Well let us see. I really don't think you guys understand what is involved. I have been promoting this for 30 years or so. Yes, I have had many physicians as clients including neurosurgeons that send their entire family to me. Yes I have great reputation. But that doesn't mean anything whatsoever as far as education of the medical profession. What else has been done? Well to "weed out the 2nd class practitioners" is a very difficult thing as no person has any control. If they have a license to touch (massage, chiropractic, PT, etc) then they use this (IMO stupid) phrase called "energy work". So someone goes to this person, has no results, but never understands that medical qigong is an entirely different thing. What has been done to educate? The NQA (www.nqa.org) has gone to great lengths to do this but do you realize the funds it would take to really educate the medical profession much less the public? The NQA has addressed the issue of "weeding out 2nd class practitioners". I was on the standards committee and for two years we hashed out standards for medical qigong practitioners; these standards are in place and the NQA does issue certification. But all the massage/chiropractic/PT practitioners can ignore this and say they do "energy work" and tell people it is the same thing as medical qigong. There are NO federal or state standards in place other than the NQA organizational one. I have taught at 2 major medical schools and one hospital. The problem is, when the particular physician that was sponsoring died or transferred, no one else was willing to even talk about it. AS far as the public goes, if a medical qigong practitioner lives in a place with a large enough population, then if they have efficacy they will have plenty of clients. But this doesn't mean the medical profession will recognize it much less endorse it.

Love it! I wrote the song "Sea of Light" after spending a couple of days on top of a mountain attending a Cherokee wailing ceremony and watching the medicine man call in the winds (yes he did). Sea of Light came to me the night I came home in dreamtime.
