Neither Heaven nor Hell is permanent, and rebirth is inevitable. I personally am not interested in gaining spiritual brownie points, so I have have a better "temporary" vacation. I want out of this cycle, even if that means eternal death so be it. Every being has the intrinsic right to defend their own lives, and the lives of loved ones. Self preservation, and self defense are fundamental to nature. How many animals in nature just lie down and allow themselves to be eaten by their predators? Even they have enough self respect to attempt to save their own lives in such a situation. I don't have much respect for a person who doesn't even value their own life. Don't get me wrong. I am against violence. I am vegetarian. It bothers me that we needlessly slaughter millions of beings each day to fill our fat bellies, while we let half the human population of earth starve to death. I hate war, and needless human death and suffering. The more I observe humanity the more disconnected I feel from it, the more I want out of this insane world. It solidifies in my mind the unreality of this world, for only in a dream could things be so absolutely insane.

ya its quite possible it is a trick, but in the film the center of his palm is scalding hot, he should have suffered much pain from that, but I can see no sign of any damage or blisters. Also see the harvard study done on a similar practice.. the monks were able to get to 120*F in this study http://www.hno.harvard.edu/gazette/2002/04.18/09-tummo.html

I guess I could roll over like a *explicative deleted* and take it in the *explicative deleted*, and wind up dead. I however view my life as just as important as a would be killer or attacker, it's survival of the fittest always has been and always will be. In my mind their is nothing immoral about defending yourself. I am not afraid to die, I am afraid of being reborn again into this world. I want out, I want to break this cycle. Giving my life up before I naturally die, or achieved liberation, on some moral grounds would be stupid. Achieving liberation is something I have to do above all else before I die. That is why being prepared to survive a violent attack is important to me. The only thing I can fathom is that people who are ready to forfeit their lives on moral grounds must not have a dream to accomplish here in this life.

I didn't think I was being childish cam. I am absolutely serious. I believe one has the karmic right to defend ones life, and that of loved ones. Mr. Weird Banana (John Chang's Teacher) slaughtered an entire village and moved to java to hide from Chinese authorities, and yet he achieved immortality, not that I am condoning such a thing. I value human life. I don't want to see anyone die or suffer. However if I am attacked it would go against my true nature not to defend myself.

I don't know if anyone else can feel it, but I can. There is a tidal wave of negative energy on its way. I believe it is something on the magnitude of WWIII. Cam guns may be evil but you would be glad to have one (along with a few thousand rounds of ammo) if the world fell into utter chaos. I would invest in solar ovens, wilderness survival books and gear, edible plants books, and huge stock piles of vacuum sealed lentils, beans, and multivitamins.

If he can do it without a stick, then I might get interested

I have read this book, but I still cannot make any sense of it, can anyone here make sense of it? Could it be translated into Taoist Yoga For Complete #$%%^ing idiots?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_radio The crystals don't actually power the radio, they merely change it from electrical energy to sound waves. imho crystals may have some valid use for transforming energy and chi we cannot use into forms which we can, but I don't think they actually work like batteries for chi, or other such energy.

According to my teachers, you must avoid ejaculation for a minimum of 3 days prior to attempting compression training, or risk rupturing and forever destroying the dan tein. I would not attempt this type of thing without guidance from an Lei Shan Dao Teacher.

Robert Peng is the only one I know of. Do you guys know any others? Can you provide links? Thanks

It's almost automatic for me. I do microcosmic orbit meditation in trance in order to collect yang chi into my lower dan tein (below naval). During weightlifting I simply focus for a few minutes beforehand on feeling the chi flow from the lower dan tein and up into the areas I desire it to go. It is simply the result of focusing and willing the energy to flow where you desire.

I absolutely hit the zone today (no drugs just in case your thinking that). I knew what people were going to say, before they said it. I kept thinking. Deja-Vu... over and over and over. It was absolutely bizarre. Then I started seeing white little fluffs of energy floating down, and massive tan tien vibrations, finally I couldn't take it any more so I went and ate a big meal and went to sleep when I woke up I was un zoned. I have also been waking up at night to strange red lights in my room at night, that seem to come from no where. Very interesting stuff, anyone else have any experiences like this (not drug induced)

I am doing basic qigong training in springforest qigong and robert pengs qigong course, right now at the moment. I wasn't scared but only because I have experienced so many unbelievable things I no longer think this world is even real. Nothing seems to phase me anymore. I believe the red lights may have been during a lucid dream. I get up several times a night and usually they are all in dreams. LOL. but still the red lights seemed to projected like from a laser pointer, there were some stripes along the walls but I could find no source of the light as if it were coming out of my curtains, and walls themselves. It's quite possible it was only a dream. I turned on my lights got something to drink and went back to bed. Like I said I am not 100% this world is even real anymore so I don't let things freak me out.

I wasn't in meditation, just in the waiting room at my dentist. Right now I am experimenting with several different styles and thoughts on meditation. I am trying to make sense of it all myself. Eventually though I do hope to train in the Lei Shan Dao with Dr. Verdesi.

well from my own experience there are several types of energy 1. The lowest most plentiful Male(yang) and Female(yin) Sexual Energy, which can be converted to Emotional Energy. 2. Second highest up is emotional energy it also comes in yin and yang flavors. 3. Next up is Mental energy (psychic energy), again both in yin and yang. 4. Next is spiritual energy, which composes the spirit body. again both in yin and yang I also hear there is void energy, but I am not advanced enough to comment on what it is. I do know you can convert, sexual yin and yang, to emotional yin and yang, to mental yin and yang, to spiritual yin and energies. The tao of meditation has a great guide on this.

cam I recommend, you eat a BIG meal, take a hot shower, and drink some hot tea and then do some grounding work. Focus on dumping all the extra energy back to the earth. If I do qigong enough I stay in a manic state, and my revelations don't seem to make much sense to anyone but me at the time. Its very fun but if you let it get out of control well, it wont end well.

Yes He is great I have levels 1-4

I would man but I am so swamped with books and lectures right now... I have purchased over $1000 dollars worth this year alone *_* I am trying to only listen to masters who have demonstrated their powers publicly. I am a show me the money kind of guy, and honestly I don't want to fill my brain with wrong teachings.

great find! If anyone knows of any more people who have powers which are unexplainable please post links

http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/sc...csu/powersof10/ Thats what it means cam. contained within an atom is the entire universe itself, all things are one, and one thing is all.

Dorje's video makes me have some serious doubts myself. It just seems so fake, painfully so. I did buy his book however, after talking to a close friend who attended one of his lectures. According to him he did feel Dorje's Chi was at a very high level. I still haven't made up my mind on him, I will see how kunlun training goes.

Edgar Cayce, He was also called the sleeping prophet, and as a devout Christian he didn't believe some of his own revelations at first. He slept and tapped into the potential of his mind in that state, to solve real world problems. Einstein, Tesla, Andrew Carnegie, and many other famous geniuses and successful men have used this secret. There is something about this altered state of consciousness, which we yet truly understand. This is where I believe all higher knowledge and powers ultimately reside (inside the deepest realms of the mind accessible only by such altered states). From my own experience my qigong abilities increase 1000 fold when inside of a lucid dream or astral projection. I can literally feel the energy pouring into me, and any knowledge I gain in this state has proven very lucrative.

Yes I do mean it literally. I meditated for a 5 days strait. I only got up when it was necessary to eat, drink, exercise, shower and use the bathroom. In this time I didn't sleep but was in a half awake half asleep state. I intend to pursue this state further for longer stretches of time. I am certain that for me at least, mastering this state is the key to a higher level of practice.

If you were close to sleep and you felt your heart chakra beating but your physical heart was still it means you did or were close to ejecting one of your energetic bodies. We have multiple energetic bodies with copies of our consciousness layered like an onion or a Russian matryoshka doll, Sounds like new age BS but it isn't. You should read astral dynamics by robert bruce. I find his explanation of multiple simultaneous sets of consciousness to coincide exactly with my own experiences. If your bored sometime read my theory 6 dimensional reality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6UTGkC73GE this also may interest you. I haven't been able to find any thing written by or about this master yet, if anyone has any information on him please let me know. My greatest revelation is that all meditation should be done while lucid dreaming, during this state you have access to abilities not fathomable of in your normal body. The key I have found is to let you body go to sleep but keep your mind awake. You are for all intents and purposes asleep to the rest of the world, but you are awake in your dream, and the laws of this reality no longer apply to you. You can have access to higher knowledge, distort time to have more time for meditation and training. Anything you can conceive of is possible in this state, and it in my opinion is the most powerful way to accelerate your growth. However I don't think I am qualified yet to instruct you on specific meditation techniques. I can however recommend several books and courses for you to look into. Energy Work -Robert Bruce. (and all his other books) "The Magus of Java" of "The Secret Teachings Of The Warrior Sages" -Kosta Danaos The Tao of Meditation The Way To Enlightenment -Tsung Hwa Jou Spring Forest Qigong www.springforestqigong.com Robert Peng's DVD www.robertpeng.com Pillars of Bliss http://www.risingredphoenix.com/ Those are the best easy to understand systems I know of. I hope this helps you some.

http://www.hno.harvard.edu/gazette/2002/04.18/09-tummo.html You may be interested in this. G tum mo is similar to mo pai up to a certain level from what I understand. They fuse the yang energy of a full and compressed lower tan tein with their heart chakra instead of their base base or perineum chakra. I also use a digital infrared thermometer in my training, and I have currently reached about 106*F in my palm at my deepest point of concentration after 3 hours. I can also drop temperatures in palms to about 85*F, I focus on removing energy like a vacuum. I also can warm or cool objects outside my body which for me at least is proof of being able to to project both yin and yang aspects of chi. Some advice I find that for me my ability increases sharply with the depth of my trance, ideally your body should be completely asleep, yet mind fully awake. If you try to move in this trance you will feel heavy and drunk.
