  3. Dinu Roman on Meditation

    Hi This is a link I found of Dinu Roman which describes with tremendous clarity what "meditation" really is Really helped me out a lot http://www.mcs.ca/vitalspark/2030_techniques/401med04.html Inspired by Santis website http://www.umaatantra.com/yoga_tantra_articles.html
  4. "GIRI" article

    Cool Read Santi Thanks for your generosity
  5. The polarity of healing/curing

    Thanks Karen Lots of good information
  6. The polarity of healing/curing

    Karen Thanks a bunch Great information Well ok this raises questions then in regards to the curative side - It seems like the balancing side is very understood and often talked about (healing) The curative side however - now one is receiving curative remedies in a heikunst treatment with a practioner - These remedies are acually higher "spirits" if you will similar to the affliction? Say for example someone suffers from cancer - Could cancer be thought of as acually an entity that has assisted in our evolution and has some benefits as well as drawbacks thus disease is a "spirit" if you will A higher form of the spirit is introduced thus the person keeps all the benefits and the the drawbacks disapear- Maybe cancer is a bad example because it brings to mind the tumor or the physical manifestations as opposed to the genetic predisposition or energetic configuration of the person which causes cancers manifestations Could one then call on a higher spirit to assist them without the heikunst remedy or could a skilled heikunst practioner hear the symptoms the patient is describing and send them the curative spirit energetically on a curative level meaning they use their intent like a scalpel - They are sure of what spirit needs to be sent based on the patients descriptions/ historys traumas and they are very in tune with themselves energetically and possess the intent and concentration and well just the ability and they send out exactly what is needed
  7. Cancer is a Fungus

    Karen are their any energy healers who could give a similar resonance to cure disease on the non-balance level ?
  8. Energetic Congestion

    Well I will share some ideas I have had that have helped/ are helping me with some similar problems One is a psychol-ogical aspect - Irrational beliefs - You most likely have an underlying irrational belief underlying your weak voice in certain situations - One belief could be " I need to act a certain way or someting awful will happen" "If I dont impress this person or give a certain impression I won't be able to deal with it " Thus blockage - Thus you can complement your energy work with changing your core beliefs - One cool exercise that I will throw out there You can write a poem about what you want to manifest and say it out loud I am here, there If someone wants I take a chance Women charmed, We dance, we Dance All night long Use your will and choice of words to paint a picture of what you want to be If thoughts feelings come up that feel bad - take attention away from them thus they shrink and shrink In scientific terms the neural pathway diminishes and a new one is grown After all you are creating your reality - you change others just by your thoughts - Create beauty all the time if you want If you dont have beauty - secret smile works wonders - Watching a leaf and taking that feeling and replacing crappy feelings works well Sincerity will keep you going Zen meditation which to me is non-judgement and beginners mind can be good when lots of other things fail - complete acceptance By completely accepting there is the feelings you dont like yet you are also creating a new feeling - Your not identifying with being faint of heart The body is rewiring itself Beneficial spirits responds and in scientic terms - new neural pathways are formed and other neurotransmitters are emphasized Good diet helps a lot For me balance - variety - water intake - High quality foods - from high quality channels - Forgiveness and a kind loving attitude towards yourself even when you are not what you want to be An attitude of having as opposed to needing to change The moment this happens there is a freedom and change starts to happen - Lots of other pathway that sincerity brings out - Humbleness helps a lot in social situations- Acts of generousity can loosen one up and change ones perspective quickly Not judging based on reactions of others but having enough energy to have integrity - Thus being able to gather energy from other sources so that one can be light and playful independant of whether the people one is with are - Not looking to others for energy but rather creating someting beautiful If demons come up send them love They are very valuable as they cause us to adapt and evolve like any predator or challenge Take chances - Break old habits - Speak from your belly Sing everyday Hatsumi and Glen Morris say - This is your life- keep going, keep playing Good Luck
  9. AA

    You know this is all very interesting and makes me wonder I mean is it really possible for someone to steal energy on purpose knowing full well what they were doing? If someone acually was doing this consistently it seems it would have to be out of ignorance or being lost-
  10. Asceticism in Ch' an-chen Taoism

  13. Sexual Problem giant testicle

    Well I had not been doing much semen retention or ejaculation for a while - Basically 30 minutes a week of masturbation with maybe one ejaculation every 7 days or so sometimes a bit more I then had 3 ejaculations in 4 days - Taking zinc and multivitamin mineral supplement and small amounts of maca Five days later I masturbated for 2 hours without ejaculation - Had taken a small amount of maca root Had also been exercising a bit and eaten some raw fish a bunch of raw cheese and more fish etc - Also did male deer a couple times in the middle Anyway last night I could barely stand the feeling in my body it hurt so bad - I had been drawing the energy I had down while ejaculating so that it almost felt like there was a seal over the penis where I could masturbate very hard and just would not cum unless I threw a mental switch - Anyway my body hurt so much I ejaculated Well today my left testicle swelled up to the size of an orange - tons of fluid inside it and out - Went to the ER and was reffered to a urologist - Testicle shrunk a bit - got home and was talking with parents and got a bit emotionally excited and it swelled up even bigger immediately - hurt terrible could barely walk - and now I am typing this from bed on laptop Any ideas what could be going on? Thanks Ric
  14. IMA vs. MMA

    Interesting post on developing abilities before puberty I was reading about kundalini problems in Glenn Morris' book and telling my mom that maybe this has something to do with all the physical and mental problems I've been having for a long time and then she informed me that she did Kundalini yoga while pregant with me and ate a special diet of spicy foods/ took cold showers in the morning in an ashram - my father the same - I am curious if this may also be a reason behind why my younger brother has seizures that started around puberty -
  15. Chi Weightlifting

    Hey interesting xeno Reason I ask is that I often have 1700 or so calories a day when I am just eating natural unrefined foods - I am trying to figure out if it the norm for advances chi kung practioners to be able to daily eat like 1000 -1500 calories and be active sexually and mentally and physically - The thing is at this level vasodilation is naturally great but I waste away -literally my bodyfat gets down to low single digit levels which isnt too good for the libido or my mood Goji berries are king I must say I eat them often Raw Celery is good too
  16. Chi Weightlifting

    Hey xenolith in regards to hormones and the benefits of this practice - I am curious as to how many calories you eat a day and your diet breakdown and how it relates to your experience of cco,mco, and hormonal development or increased hormone levels Thanks Ric

  19. Meetings with extraordinary people

    Hey Thank you very much for the information - I will try the mantra and righteous thinking - Reason I ask about unicorn is because of these words and a melody which I dreamed - and then wrote a song about "To follow the horse with the golden horn, The heart must be pure like a baby just born" Ric
  20. Meetings with extraordinary people

    Hey very interesting Story I am curious was the parasite acually a physical thing or an energetic thing - Reason I ask is because I saw a white jellyfish like creature made of light leave some part of me when I regained consciousness out of sleep/ an altered state - I also have images of a creature with tentacles wrapped around my heart but this is nothing I have ever seen before and may just be my imagination Also curious if you know if Couatl are supposed to exist and Unicorns - Thanks Ric

  23. Sexual Problem giant testicle

    Ok well they say I have a hydo-ceal and not tesicular torsion - have an appointment with a urologist in 6 days - It currently swells up to the size of an orange every time I stand for more than half an hour - Current mediative practices - | Alternate nostril breathing Grounding exercies - Everyday Varying - Awareness of breath- focusing on different parts of body - Lying down and moving energy throughout the body - Not doing anything and just lying as energy moves by itself by something that I havent figured out yet what it is - Slow movement of my arms in circles and spirals - Sometimes tensing muscles in my legs in isometic contractions while moving the arms slowly - Full lotus - sometimes up to an hour but usually not more than 20 min somedays none at all Different stretching postures most from my high school wrestling days Cognitive Behavorial techniques - Thought stoppage - developing different thinking strategies - Doctor Morris inspired toning down of thought which instead of fighting them just taking attention away and not feeding negative ones Walk in parks and trees Light weights every now and then with secret smile - Moving my body with intent and aware of my body at all times where I basically balance out my body being in extreme pain and barely being able to stand feelings or terror with secret smile and movement of energy - If it hard and scared I intend it to be soft and relaxed - This varies however - Sometimes I can keep myself in the face of a storm of pain and negative emotions coming at me - Other days I am almost ready to be commited - Acually it varies often hour to hour and sometimes feels like reality changes very strongly over periods of seconds My diet completley affects my mood - For a long period I ate tons of raw meat and raw milk - Lately the last year I have been eating more grains - Brown rice - quinoa - More vegetables - For 4 years I fasted every day and gorged on meat at night because that was the only way I could deal with my feelings -this was a change from my diet before of eating mostly milk and cereal For a while before that I would drink a pint or two of heavy cream just to "kill" the feelings - These were bad ideas for my health but all I could do - I had been hospitalized several times and I was willing to do anything for a bit of relief - drugs only made things worse I was living almost completely on heavy cream and could barely move but my heart felt good and I wasnt insane So presently I am going more moderate on the meat and it is mostly cooked - - Grains - vegetables - fish - beans - vegetables - Nuts - cheese- yogurt - Trying to drink lots of water Raw celery juice seems to smooth things out - Sleep paterns - If I am going nuts it is sometimes up all night - If I am really insane with pain it is maybe two hours every now and then at most at no predictable times - I have lots of problems at night - body/nervous system feel like it is going nuts like an out of control restless leg syndrom throughout my whole body - This is much worse if I exercise Ric
  24. Dark Night of the Soul

    Frank Herbert is teacher of mine as well James Clavell is great too Thanks Jane The Saudakar were forged by Salusa Secundus - An enemy can sometimes be more valuable than a friend - You would like the book King Rat by James Clavell Jane - and well if you were patient and like ancient Japanese culture- History and a touch of romance you will love Shogun
  25. Secret of Sexual Energy

    Good post Thanks - Can it be dispersed by shooting it out the heart as well? Ok and well it is then dispersed and shot into females is it not lost in a sense by doing this as well or does it come back to you in some form?
