That's the question -- that's my goal. How do I convert Jing to Shen? I find that I can experience some pleasant sensations when I take breath into my LDT, then push my lower abdomen muscles in towards my spine in an almost pumping motion, repeatedly. I'll do this while meditating. Does this sound like a correct technique? Or is it more about finding what works for me... I've heard that The Conversion can be compared to pumping water up a Hill: You have a pond that has a drain at the bottom. When it rains, the pond fills up. You can then pump the water to the top of the hill (Converting Jing to Shen). Many people choose to empty the drain at the bottom, but then you have no water to pump to the top. The question is how to pump?

I feel as if they are one in the same.

But that doesn't answer my question. Why is the semen retention worth it? I'm losing faith! AKA... I'm geting antsy in my pantsy.... someone talk me out of it!

Hi. I've seen these phrases thrown around on the site, and would like to know what they mean, please: LDT MCO not just basic definitions, but could someone please extrapolate on them also please? thanks

Can you send me a private message with pertinent information? I don't know what to look for on Google... And what should I have to worry about? I'm just a guy in college with a girlfriend and a heavy course load. Could my girlfriend be a White Tigress? lol

Why do you say that? It looks like it's just a sensual massage group... or something like that. I can't imagine any of us were planning on dealing with them, so why do you say it? What better way to recover than through pureness of action? Abstain, friend. See previous posts, and search the forums, if you truly care to find an answer.

I started my 100-days two days ago, on the 14th. We should work together, guys, and check in on our progress, to help hold eachother accountable. We must first decide that it is a worthwhile goal. I have tried to start down this path before, then ended up failing because I told myself "It really isn't that worth it in the long run". What seems to be obvious, though, is that Jing cultivation is worth it, even if just a little bit. And the difference between ordinary and extraordinary, is just that little extra. (From waiting, I know, but it's true, in all facettes of life). Lets make it fun, guys, and walk down this path together.

Hello, My name is Nick. You can call me John, or John Zen. Through my explorations, I discovered Kundalini, theoretically. I then set an intention to experience her experientially. This path took me through Gnostic teachings of Sexual Transmutation/Internal Alchemy. I come here, to any who would help, guide me along the path to this Alchemy. I look forward to talking with you.

Hi. I just had sex today, and when I felt myself coming close to reaching orgasm, I stopped, and tried to direct the energy up. I felt my arms and face start to tingle. Like my whole body was vibrating. I felt light, and almost like my limbs and head were going numb. I felt nothing in my spine though. Sex lasted for about 10 minutes because she is still getting used to how it feels and she was hurting, but for like 5 minutes after I was still tingling. Is this the correct path to Sacred-Sex/Internal Alchemy practice? Or is this just good sex (I've never really experienced anything like this before with my ex-girlfriend). I don't know what I'm supposed to be looking for. I want to experience Kundalini, and I want to Transmute Sex energy, but I don't know the sign-posts for what to look for. Thanks

Also, what is jing?

Ok. Well I wasn't really like trying to "move" the energy. I was more FEELING the sensations in my genitals translated into feelings in my limbs and head. What is it supposed to feel like, so I know what to look for?

Sorry for the multiple posts. The site was slowing down so I tried sending my post many times. Please feel free to delete any extra threads. Again, I'm sorry.
