  1. Drunk on Energy

    I think I get this (I cant even think properly) after a few hours of spontaneous movements or zazen or walking sometimes. But always after I go an do some workshop (didgeridoo) and usually women (of a spiritual nature are there) I feel drunk, Im pretty sure the energy has all gone above my head/at my third eye. Usually on my train ride home from london, Ive acted in ways very similar to being highly drunk on alchohol (which I dont have anymore) like I would start chatting extremely honest to random people next to me (which coincidentally) happen to be a yoga teacher lol, also slightly dangerous almost hit by a car (not paying attention) Seem to be slightly painful bliss as well. This has happened to when Ive been with women of a certain nature alas recently this has been rare. Also thinking can be more than usual.

    The Sahasrara is located either at the top of the head, or a little above it (see Sahasrara system of minor chakras below). [edit]AppearanceThe Sahasrara is described as having 1,000 multi-coloured petals which are arranged in 20 layers each of them with 50 petals. The pericarp is golden and a circular moon region is inscribed on it with a downward pointing triangle. [edit]FunctionThe Sahasrara Chakra symbolizes detachment from illusion; an essential element in obtaining supramental higher consciousness of the truth that one is all and all is one. Often referred to as a thousand-petaled lotus, it is said to be the most subtle chakra in the system, relating to pure consciousness, and it is from this chakra that all the other chakras emanate. When a yogi is able to raise his or her kundalini, energy of consciousness, up to this point, the state of Samādhi is experienced. Meditating on this point is said to bring about the siddhis, or occult powers, of transforming into the divine, and being able to do whatever one wishes. In some schemes of chakras, there are actually several chakras that are all closely related at the top of the head. Rising from Ajna, we have the Manas chakra on the forehead, which is closely associated with Ajna. Above Manas there are Bindu Visarga at the back of the head, Mahanada, Nirvana, which is located on the crown, Guru, and then Sahasrara proper, located above the crown. [edit]Bindu VisargaThe Bindu Visarga is located at the back of the head, in a place where many Brahmins keep a tuft of hair. It is symbolised by a crescent moon on a moonlit night, with a point or bindu above it. This is the white bindu, with which yogis try to unite the red bindu below, and it is the source of the divine nectar or amrit which falls down to vishuddhi for distribution throughout the entire bodily system. This white drop is considered the essence of sperm, while the red bindu is considered the essence of the menstrual fluid. This chakra is sometimes known as the Indu, Chandra or Soma chakra. In other descriptions, it is located on the forehead, white, with 16 petals, corresponding to the vrittis of mercy, gentleness, patience, non-attachment, control, excellent- qualities, joyous mood, deep spiritual love, humility, reflection, restfulness, seriousness, effort, controlled emotion, magnanimity and concentration. [edit]MahanadaThe name of this chakra means 'Great Sound', and it is in the shape of a plough. It represents the primal sound from which emanates all of creation. [edit]NirvanaThis chakra is located on the crown of the head. It is white in colour and possesses 100 white petals. It marks the end of the sushumna central channel. It is responsible for different levels of concentration, dharana, dhyana and savikalpa samadhi. [edit]GuruThe guru chakra is located above the head, just below Sahasrara proper. It is white, with 12 white petals, upon which is written the guru mantra, Ha Sa Kha Freng Ha Sa Ksha Ma La Wa Ra Yung. It contains a circular moon region, within which is a downward pointing triangle containing a jeweled altar with the crescent moon below and circular bindu above. Inside the bindu is the seat, upon which are the gurus footstools, upon which are the Gurus feet. This position is considered very important in Tibetan Tantric practices of deity yoga, where the guru or deity is often visualised above the crown, and then bestowing blessings below (for example in the Vajrasattva purification meditation). [edit]Higher levelsWithin Sahasrara, there are yet more levels of subtlety.[1] Within the triangle begins a series of ever higher levels of consciousness; ama-kala, the first ring of visarga, nirvana-kala, nirvana shakti, which contains the second ring of visarga. From here, kundalini becomes shankhini, with 3 and a half coils. The first coil of shankhini wraps around supreme bindu, the second coil of shankhini wraps around the supreme nada, the third coil of shankhini wraps around shakti, and the half-coil of shankhini enters into sakala shiva, beyond which is parama shiva. [edit]Ama-kalaAma-kala is the experience of samprajnata samadhi. [edit]VisargaThis is symbolised by two dots, one of which is inside ama-kala, and the other of which is below supreme bindu, which represents the transition from samprajnata samadhi to the oneness of asamprajnata samadhi. [edit]Nirvana-kalaHere kundalini absorbs even the experience of samadhi, through the power of supreme control (nirodhika fire). [edit]Nirvana-shaktiHere kundalini passes into the supreme void, which is the experience of asamprajnata or nirvikalpa samadhi, and becomes shankhini. Kundalini then wraps around and absorbs the supreme bindu, which is the void, the supreme nada, and shakti, and then unites with and absorbs shiva, before finally being absorbed into paramashiva, which is the final stage of nirvikalpa samadhi

    Transpersonal chakras From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Transpersonal chakras are a line of several chakras (various authors describe either three, five, or six) that many yogis and meditation practitioners say are located sequentially above the crown chakra (itself located on the top of the head) to a distance above the head of as far as about 18 inches (about 0.5 meters).[1] Contents [hide] 1 Transpersonal chakras in Asian philosophy 2 New Age three transpersonal chakra system 2.1 The soul star chakra 3 Function of the transpersonal chakras 4 See also 5 References [edit]Transpersonal chakras in Asian philosophyTranspersonal chakras are seen in Hinduism, in Vajrayana Buddhism, in Daoism and in qigong, and in New Age thought as several chakras above the head, as noted above. The transpersonal chakras in Hinduism have Sanskrit names, in Varjayana Buddhism they have Sanskrit and Tibetan names, and in Daoism and in qigong they have Chinese names. There are five transpersonal chakras above the head beyond the usual seven that are mentioned and named in the esoteric texts of Vajrayana Buddhism.[2] [edit]New Age three transpersonal chakra systemUsing the New Age names, the lowest transpersonal chakra (the soul star chakra) is said to be located about 4-5 fingers above the head, the middle transpersonal chakra (the God portal chakra) is said to be located about 12 inches above the head and the highest transpersonal chakra (the grand portal chakra) (sometimes called the stellar portal chakra} is said to be located about 18 inches above the head.[3][4] [edit]The soul star chakraThe soul star chakra is a chakra that many meditation practitioners say is located above the crown chakra. The soul star chakra is said to be located about 4-5 fingers above the head. Thischakra is associated with spiritual connection between individuals, as well as connection to one's Higher Self.[3][4] [edit]Function of the transpersonal chakrasThe highest transpersonal chakra is called the "grand portal" because it is believed by some mystics, magicians and yogis to provide access for soul travel into other parts of this universe, intoalternate universes, to higher planes of existence, to the past or future history of our own timeline or alternate timelines via time travel forward or backward in time, or to othercosmoses.[3][4][5][6][7][8] Interesting hope Im not boasting, But Im sure many people have something to say about this, and/or in getting drunk without substances lol

    Void is form and form is void. What is the meaning behind this seemingly wise words. Let me figure out. When something says there is "nothing" That nothing contains every "thing" inside it. In a way its not really "nothing" When someone says there is something That something also contains Emptiness or void of existence. Thinking is part of enlightenment. When you walk down a road, there is a person that stops at the traffic lights. But that person is also intrinsically empty of existence. So when someone says nothing exists, they are talking about nothing as being intrinsically "empty" but that nothingness is also containing everything, when someone says something exists that something also is void of something. Hmm
  7. Why Taoism?

    Well I wouldnt call myself "a taoist" I wouldnt call myself anything exactly. But it seems to be a blend of "Existing" as a real person and following the laws of nature, yin and yang, harmony, five elements etc Whilst being associated with the empty state. My personal prference is not one of too many rule, although this is perhaps a disharmony of mine as rules and restraint are often "useful" I like what taoism says about going with the flow of life, simplicity. I also like Zen, although its difficult to say what is zen and what is taoism, and what is buddhism. I could say Taoists arent too strict like some buddhists who seem to be of a religion, and it doesnt seem so forceful. I used to think Taoism had nothing to do with morality. However I think thats a irrational perception of Taoism. Im not too sure, There are so many counter theories to every theory not to say that saying theorys and then saying their counter theories is not beneficial. I think in many ways its more important how you feel than what you think in a certain vibration/mood certain ways of seeing the world appear, angry= angry thoughts.. However thats also not true, you can be in physical/emotional pain and be empty too..
  8. When I had peyote, I saw distinct fractal shapes, this was after my "trip" in which I appeared to be in some other realm of pure love which strangely enough looks like the mexican peyote art. Like exactly like this, how is it that its all so similar. Sometimes I reach states similar after a few hours of spontaneous movements. If I close my eyes sometimes different colours, never pay too much attention to that, although might be interesting too.
  9. My self

    You know I was all empty and stuff, no ego state. Then i was sungazing today, so I asked this question to the sun. The answer was "Of course you exist, you are real, Im a sun arent I" In a kind of mocking tone.
  10. lol I shouldnt really laugh though sounds sad
  11. ...

    Had steak today, might have occasionally..for grounding Also a little bit of red wine and have been having something called keffir like probiotics got a lot of vitamin b12
  12. Well if that is truly the case, I applaud anyone who is a mystic but tries to stay rational about it. I also went for a few months on a search of whether such claims were really true or nonsense, through my own judgement. I hope you reach whatever conclusion your truly searching for.

  15. Synchronicity

    Just to say I sounded a little arragant earlier in my postings was just in a silly mood, somewhat wanting to destroy attachment to this idea but also somewhat arragant. When someone makes a new discovery not the best time to destroy any attachment to ideas but moreso to validate it, i can tell from my own experience. Anyways I experience synchronicity all the time and some of them are really strange, more I do spontaneous movements, more synchronicity.
  16. Waysun Liao DVD guide.

    Taiji student you have a very balanced way of responding, I admire you. Must look into tai chi haha, maybe the gary clyman thing too haha Not to say I never feel like this or that general advancement in ones cultivation path whatever it is doesnt lead the same results, past few days I havent been sleeping properly or done any cultivation which is unusual. I do find that people that do Taichi a lot respond to such disturbances in a more harmonious way to create balance, I think the taichi symbol is balance. In our society it seems yang and yang creating more yang. Taichi seems good for this.

  18. The Tao of Jin (power) in Tai Chi Chuan

    Where was a threat. I spent like 10-20 pages trying to talk nicely and show something and put in effort to someone who clearly was just out to disrespect a whole bunch of people and ignore everything said. Perhaps you are right, I get annoyed by people who would call me crazy for things I do all day long, or find important in my life.I have not yet managed to ignore such things, and I being spiritual does not neccessarily mean being super tolerant. It also includes some degree of self respect
  19. The Tao of Jin (power) in Tai Chi Chuan

    But you lost on your first post, because things you call supernatural exist. Its like saying theres no such thing as dogs because I havent seen one yet,. Nonsense

  21. The Tao of Jin (power) in Tai Chi Chuan

    Where was the lie, I said you sound like a scientist, you have been talking a lot of science theory on posts.
  22. The Tao of Jin (power) in Tai Chi Chuan

    What lies have I told you? None. I dont lie. Like most people who spend a great deal of their time in meditation, qigong, working on their character, lying is not something that I do, well very often at least.
