heaven chi

OK, I was just worried only I saw waiting for prapra.net But well my imagination is vivid.

Excellent post vortex. Very good. I want to add that once I sat in full lotus for half a day from morning to noon (with little breaks lol) at the end I noticed I could see more clearly at a distance more details. But I think I lost it afterwards. Anyway not the easiest way to correct myopia

OK, so that's what it is. Why did he put a skull?

I think somebody is doing black magic to me. If nobody else sees waiting for prapra.net while loading taobums.com then it must be a sort of internet black magic. Note that the site has a title named "I am" This probably means to suggest to me that I am like that skull. What do you think? This page always loads in the background before taobums.com

Hello, I have read the book by Master Nan - Huai Chin Tao and Longevity where he describes the physical effects of meditation and the movement of chi along the tu mai and jen mai. My question is: from your experience how long must one meditate for the chi to enter the head? I meditate for 45 minutes but I think it is not enough. When the chi enters the head don't you feel a calming of the mind? Or do you see visions? My second question is: For a beginner whose energy channels are not open, is it possible that although he meditates well, the energy is still flowing in the legs and doesn't come up the spine? Generally for serious meditation is 45 minutes enough? Thank you all

OK, you are right. I'll have to grow out of guided meditation.

OK, you're right. I am ashamed a bit.

If the channels are more open you feel so fresh and connected and light like you have a new body. How can this be bad? But I understand your point that if you feel something like friction your channels are blocked. Thank you for your reply.

Thank you all. Don't worry I have a teacher and he has given me a guided meditation CD recorded by himself. He told me however best is to memorize it but I prefer the guided CD. Are guided mediations less effective than otherwise? About anapanasati, yes I know I used to practice it in the past but I don't like it. I prefer my current style of meditation and I'm not changing it. But thank you for your good will to help me.

It has happened to me some times in a dream that I dream I sit in a place and begin to meditate and the concentration seems really strong and the energetic feelings more than if I meditated during day. I think I slept sitting up. Does anyone know how to purposely cause this meditation dream? It happened to me by chance more than twice. Otherwise, never meditate when you are sleepy because it's a waste of time. EXCEPT if you are only a bit sleepy which you can overcome after a few minutes you have began the meditation, in my experience. I forgot that if you are not a beginner in meditation and the chi enters the head you may begin to feel a bit like sleepy. It's normal.

Very good point. Which means a novice should practice more.

What is the analog of the shit? Edit: I mean what are energetic blockages made of?

Well take the leg channels for instance. By meditation for 45 minutes I have merely a bit of response but they don't actually open. Whereas if I sit in full lotus for 2 hours I feel they are much more open. So 2 hours meditation many people can't afford it every day...except if you go with less sleep. well.

Thank you for your input vortex. You answered very well exactly what I wanted to know.

Thanks sykkelpump. OK you're right there is no hard and fast time rule. But I've heard that if you meditate less than 45 minutes you don't make significant progress is that true?

Let me clarify my question. I want to open the channels in the head. For that the chi must ascend to the head. So I ask: how long must one meditate for this to happen? 45 minutes? 2 hours? Is it possible to meditate for 45 minutes correctly and chi not reach the head because the lower channels are clogged? Does anyone have personal experience with sitting meditation? Edit: what do you mean chi is always flowing? In the 12 meridians? I mean in the tu mai and jen mai which are usually blocked, if I'm correct. Actually are the yin chiao and yang chiao mai connected to the tu mai? Thank you

Hello all members, I am a young person who is interested in Buddhism and Taoism and specifically in meditation and healing, siddhis and enlightenment. Also like vajrayana and love mantras. I would like to learn from others experiences. I have a teacher but anyway I don't have many friends interested in meditation. heaven chi
