Ok then, this thread can be locked now. and it ends with a warning to Recep to stop with the snide belittling etc.. its against forum rules. If you continue a supension will be put into an effect.

is this thread something you want to keep going? Would you like it to be locked and start again with a resolve to be civil, or has the material you wished to cover been covered?

I expect the fans are waiting to see if you pluck your eyebrows.Or perhaps someday point in a different direction.Who knows what transmogrifications may occurr as your practice evolves... only one thing is for sure.. persistent derailing will earn you a suspension... possibly of infinite duration.

Curates Egg might be a phrase you would find it useful to learn. And for you.. for your cultivation. Would you consider being confrontational good practice? Is the energy of it feeling beneficial for you and for all?

Just as an FYI.. To whom do you refer?.. is the correct form. Not that its actually good form to put Practitioner on the spot like that. Some things are best left unsaid.

Yin location, very likely yin spirits trapped, come out to feed and their very presence is life draining as they are so deeply yin.

Moderator message: Guys! keep the discussion civil, or this thread will be locked and pitted and some suspensions will be put in place for breaking forum civility rules. keep it useful, and maintain respect and balanced tone. Please.

It's a good idea to try. When I come here, I click on 'view new content' so pp discussion entries come up anyhow, as new contributions. I think it a very good idea to self moderate, to use the board as a kind of practice in itself. And I think if one wishes to discuss something seriously and without chat or off topic posts, then using a pp format is ideal.

The point is that you dont wish to describe the event, which we respect.

Hi there. welcome to the forum. There are a lot of people here who know quite a bit about energy and its machinations and have a whole gamut of experiences. We dont have all the answers, and we have a lot of questions and a lot of investigative energy. Anecdotal evidence which is vague offers so little examinable information that it holds little weight in a place where discussion is often heated, rigorous, in depth, sceptical. I'm sure we understand that you dont wish to relive a trauma. It seems you are carrying it with you to this day and are in avoidance of it because it was so awful for you and perhaps you are not entirely clear what happened to you. Nobody here will know what happened to you , as you dont know, and description is not available to us. What we do know is that you felt deeply uncomfortable about what happened, it was new to you and you construed it very negatively. Sorry for your pain. It doesnt tell us a great deal about Reiki, though. This is because people get freaked out by the results of energy work very often. It's part of the territory.. there is a whole area of the energy work territory called Weird Shit. It's a place where people dump the unexplained, either for a while, before they proccess and makes sense of their experiences, or long term because its incomprehensible experience or perhaps best just regarded as being passing scenery that was, and now isnt, and so.. leave it behind and move on. What I mean is, we are accustomed to weird shit and sorry you experienced some. It tells us that weird shit can happen to people when they enter energy work , reiki included. You believe Reiki should admit that people can experience weird shit due to it. We sh/could have a lot of things admitted to us as damaging that arent admitted in advance as potentially damaging. It's a question sure enough : do we need to be warned about all possible potentialities in advance... if we do, we are in trouble because it will never happen. What are the potential damages involved in blaming people for not warning us of every remote possible outcome? When I first saw an energy healer I had outrageously positive outcomes that changed my consciousness for ever, I was never ever again the same person that stepped up to meet him. Not ever. This possibility for radical change in any direction is very real. Framing it as a complaint in negative cases is totally understandable and yet... lacking in a sense of overview and maturity. I really hope you can get sometihng from this board and its members which give you some form of healing for your trauma. In taoism, in spirituality, we look upon all experiences as opportunities to learn. It is difficult indeed to learn whilst traumatised.

Yes. Also.... really and truly the numbers can be taken as meaning LOTS and representing relative values.. they arent to be read literally. Its a map, not the territory.

cock the head a lot like a dog listening, on both sides, while doing spontaneous qigong or in flowing qigong state with your energy mobile and raised. this is the important movement : raise your ears high, one at a time, listen to what the ceiling is saying, without being too obvious about it to any onlooker. take it easy , dont rush.

According to spirituality, there is no such thing as poison: such a thing, ultimately, could only appear that way to the as yet ignorant. Later on, what was "poison" would be recognised as a helper along the way out of ignorance.

jiva the immortal essence of a living organism (human, animal, fish or plant etc.) which survives physical death,used to denote an individual 'living entity' or 'living being' specifically -whereas atma refers to "the cosmic self"- It is said not to be a product of the material world but of a higher 'spiritual' nature. When the Jiva breaks the shackles of the material world it becomes the transcendental self. thanks gatito.. and what is the Self that looks through the jiva?

Allan.. could you explain how emptiness is excluded from what you see written by M Winn?

Gerard, hi, can you say any more about what it is that actually constitutes the whole construction? Thankyou for the phrase 'yang mind'.. that useful.

I just go via 'new content' every time I arrive here, so I see whatever is new, regardless of where it is placed. TBH I dont even notice what forum it is in.

I heard that every 'self' is just a portal for beings to look through.

Thanks for the headsup, Dorian. Please, everyone and anyone, report any more that you see.. just click 'report' on their post, and in the report space write SPAM, and they will be marked as such.

Watch it, or perving may start up.

O RLY?! You dont need to watch it to see it is 'contactee'.. I've watched it a coupla times. This person has been in touch with mantid beings since childhood and tells about it in detail, with his drawings of them

Simon Parkes is interesting. This is the first section of a 4 part interview. He's a politician, a member of parliament in the UK, but dont let that put you off.

interesting , useful question. Many nuances according to what it is you wish to cultivate at any given time.Light evocation of imagine. The power base of command just isnt necessary with regard to cultivating light.Light touch is all that is required and what needs to be cultivated.On a practical note.. any time you command you are inviting subservience and therefore resistance.Imagination holds tremendous power and it is a power of creation and invitation.Command is more to do with summoning and wielding.Generally in taoism the touch needs to be lightened, the footfall needs to be lightened.. the mind alighting on each thing it perceives needs to to alight without weight.What one would have to be aware of would be : from whence do I find what is required in order to issue command. And why do I imagine I need to command rather than invite. And from whence does my ability to imagine actually stem?

Our conscousness has to transform. As light as a feather. Imagine your consciousness, now, to be as light as a feather, and crystal clear, and wholly luminous. Good excercise to practice.. start with the lightness.. the other qualities follow. It's density we are shifting, iow, heaviness we are relinquishing.

I cant express how much I *heart* this.
