Keep doing what is working for you. Sometimes we only need a simple practice.

See my signature, Magical Awakening is a system of divine tools that uses divine consciousness and energy to release blocks.

Just came back from a Oneness livestream and the energy was working intensely to quiet down my frontal lobes...almost done now Last week was lots of work in the heart area. There is some strong juice in this energy, definitely recommended

You are probably right. I am referring to the numbering Sifu Terry made in a post in this thread. Anyway it is a nice meditation. Will see how the next experience will unfold

Regarding seated #3 I have been doing it lately with 216 repetitions inspired by Earl Grey's practice log. It has a deep effect each time I do it. It feels like a direct contact to spirit and I receive lots of intuitive information each time.

No, the karma idea does not automatically mean victimhood but merely a action-reaction sequence beyond the mind and beyond any ideas. It is a natural law if one believes in individuals that can acquire karma. Like gravity.

I think the diehard capitalists have not reached the state where they appreciate clean water and want others to have it as well. Eventually humanity will reach the stage where such things are more valuable than money. It is just a certain percentage are that are stuck in the past and probably there are also karmic reasons for why the Native Americans are suffering so much.

You are already living in the present. Thoughts about "I want to live in the now" are just thoughts. If you don't want to meditate be conscious of all thoughts and notice how they can pull you into negative states of despair and anger etc. Regarding seeing then it is really about what is seeing, not that something is seen. The problem is what Tolle says can interpreted by the mind as a future state to "get" as if it is something you are not already. So the mind wants to get and this is the seeker which is identification with thought. See this identification.

Like one of my teachers told me. Jesus, Buddha and also living avatars / saints are all different expressions of the Divine. So Buddha had a focus on wisdom, Jesus a specific kind of love and so on. Not the same thing but different expressions like people have different personalities but we are all of the Divine.

On electromagnetic pollution the problem is that the waves are distorted not harmonic and thus disturb humans and animals. Once the people who design this gets their consciousness lifted or people will start demand products which don't cause negative effects then this stuff will continue. So we need engineers and geeks more evolved than now.

Tomorrow is an opportunity to try the blessing live with a teacher https://livestream.com/anette-carlstrom/events/6830482 8 PM CET. London, United Kingdom 7:00pm - 8:00pm (GMT) New York, United States 2:00pm - 3:00pm (EST) Enjoy

I have felt the presence of Jesus in my own body when he took over during a healing session. It was very powerful. My sensing says he didn't study Taoism.

Some trust the inner teacher too much and then it becomes arrogance. Some trust the outer teacher too much and then they become helpless without their guru.

On researchgate they have a lot of articles on meditation research, like this one https://www.researchgate.net/publication/41486162_Focused_attention_open_monitoring_and_automatic_self-transcending_Categories_to_organize_meditations_from_Vedic_Buddhist_and_Chinese_traditions It seems TM has the most research to back it and the one where people have "pure consciousness" experiences. There is also Open Focus https://www.amazon.com/Open-Focus-Brain-Harnessing-Power-Attention-ebook/dp/B00AITRK24/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486833289&sr=8-1&keywords=open+focus+brain which is based on loosening up narrow focus to achieve relaxation but I don't think it promises transcendence / awakening - but the effects seem to mimic those you get from practices with focus on pure awareness. Doing Open Focus with a practitioner brain activity is measured to improve the results. I think in the future we will see consumer devices that can measure brain activity, skin response etc so one can get feedback on one's practice and maybe speed up the awakening process.

There is no free will for anyone to follow a teacher or not following a teacher.

This happens for everyone including those not initiated or having a sangling.

Thanks. Some of these powerful demons seem to be thought forms projected from a seemingly powerless state at a young age. Then we integrate them back.

Good question. I just tried a few blessings so no expert. From what I experienced then the Oneness blessing opens you up like so many other healing forms but it works slightly different. The focus is more on the spiritual heart and physical brain and on shifting you from local self to boundless awareness. Especially after the live blessing then I felt more childish joy - joy for no reason but of course it could also be just what I needed. Also since it worked on my heart then issues fell away that prevented a feeling of connectedness with others.

You can communicate with the deity that imparted FP Chi Kung. I did and got some interesting facts. Like whether we could just channel FP energy like Reiki but the answer was that it had to be cultivated through physical movements - at least that is how I understood it.

I have read about a third of White Moon on the Mountain Peak on the Nei Dan process and so far it is very informative. Too bad such a good book wasn't available when I started out many years ago. It is miles ahead in clarity compared to what came before it which have been too philosophical and not useful IMHO. So bravo Damo Mitchell, good work.
