  1. ///

    One of the first threads I read on TTB was about an acupressure point associated with the pineal and pituitary gland. I tried the pineal point with my eyes closed and eventually I felt it! This was when I was first getting into meditation so it was sweet and still is! Now typically whenever I press this point I can feel the magnetic pull of my third eye. Anyways, the point I wanted to bring up was that a couple of weeks ago I was playing with these really strong magnets I bought to build a magnetic generator with and one stuck to where my third eye is. I just did this again, and bent over to make sure it would still stick. Pretty cool. I do have a question though. What kind of effect if any will this have. I just tried the acupressure point again and didnt have a third eye response so there is a possibility that the magnet drained my energy or sometimes pushing the point doesnt work. anybody else play with magnets or have anymore insight?
  2. That was great! I drove down to NJ Friday morning (took about 6 hours) and dropped my stuff off at my grandmother's house, got some dinner, then drove over for the seminar. On the ride to NJ I experienced these hour or so periods of intense smiling (my face hurt later that night) and had a wonderful feeling of well being. As I got closer to the seminar this feeling intensified and as Oscar got closer the feeling was even stronger. The seminar was also a reiki meeting so I got to meet both reiki and kunlun practitioners. By the time he arrived my whole body was buzzing, so I wasn't surprised when Oscar told us that he had used a Tesla coil to charge up his aura. Sitting next to him I could feel the energy. Then I saw Jazz (who is the man) raise his heels while we were all chatting with Oscar. All of a sudden *boom* Jazz blisses out! It was hilarious to see, I couldn't stop smiling after that. We all went downstairs and did a guided meditation for oneness with the universe, felt great. Then all of us reiki folk gave Oscar a treatment and after the reiki group and kunlun group split up. Oscar had a Q and A session with Per, Jose, Jazz, and myself and then we got to the transmissions. I opened myself up, reminded myself to try to surrender to kunlun, but during the transmission itself I didn't feel too much. Per who has been doing other practices blissed out during the transmission and then continued to while he Jazz and a woman named Paulette practiced K1. I did the practice with them but no bliss. It felt like a strong practice session. I was planning on only staying for that night then leave in the morning, but Jazz invited me to come to saturday's practice session to try again. I woke up feeling great and really optimistic. By the time Jazz and I got to the meeting Oscar was already talking to some other people who were going to receive the transmission that day. We all chatted about kunlun and listened to Oscar talk about, you know...everything. Then we went inside and learned the Tibetan prostration and Maoshan five elements. Some more practice then we did kunlun. This entire time I'd been experiencing what Oscar called champagne bubbles of bliss so I was excited to practice. One of the other guys who came assumed the position and after about one minute, his legs went crazy! So much bouncing his feet were shaking the ground. Oscar said that his kunlun was expressing itself as Fire and he needed to think more like water. I typically don't have too much movement, but I think I picked up on his Fire and started to really bounce. Still no bliss, but it was a great experience to meet Oscar Jazz and the rest of those folk. I'm so glad I decided to go and CANNOT wait until I get a chance to see those guys again. peace, Max
  3. 12 reasons to say "Holy Crap"

    if you save the image to your computer you can make it an attachment
  4. Why Taoism is different

    *bows head in acknowledgment* thank you
  5. I am really looking forward to it now! I read somewhere on this forum or somewhere else that once you get the transmission you don't need to do the 100 days of retention. Does anyone know why that is?
  6. So I'm pretty sure I will be attending the seminar tomorrow and I am looking for any tips to get the most out of the experience. Thanks
  7. what are you doing for money then?
  8. Empty Vessel

    dude, I know! thanks very much. So I get the meditation and exercise and full lotus, but where does the sweet music play in?
  9. Empty Vessel

    hey darin, PROCESS: 1) Listen to young maidens singing nonwestern trance music (i.e. Anuradha Paudwal, Bel M'bilia, etc.) 2) Practice SMALL UNIVERSE -- 12 notes of nonwestern scale = 12 energy points along two main energy channels. Get $11 c.d. for this practice from http://springforestqigong.com -- Level 1 sitting meditation. 3) Do standing tai-chi simple exercises -- shown online as free videos from http://springforestqigong.com. 4) Work your way into the full-lotus for final pineal gland breakthrough and then enjoy the free energy. Full-lotus = 4 equilateral triangles, each made up of two 2-3-4 triangles with 2:3 as yang and 3:4 as yin -- the perfect fifth and perfect fourth found in all nonwestern music healing cultures. 5) ENJOY NOT THINKING -- as the Bushmen state: "God watches the sick person, the healer trances her." how long for each step in the process?
  10. I'm not sure but I think its to pay for Oscar's flight and renting out the space. I would like to receive a transmission, but I'd be driving from MA, about an 8 hour drive...Jazz do you think it would be possible to schedule ahead of time to do a transmission on friday so that I don't have to spend more money on multiple nights in a hotel?
  11. how long for each step in the process?
  12. I live in MA, but I'm willing to travel, although college is not going to be cheap! eek. I did get a scholarship to UCONN to study cognitive science. maybe one day connect western science with eastern energy practices? haha, maybe not. mantra, what's your take on different transmitters?
  13. is a transmission the same from oscar or max or are the different/more powerful depending on the transmitter?
  14. Spiritual Guides

    thanks very much Hundun, you put some things into perspective. i guess im looking to improve my life and the lives of those around me. And also find peace within so that I can help others achieve the same feeling. understanding the mysteries of the universe wouldnt be too bad either, haha
  15. Spiritual Guides

    i havent made it to one yet. these questions are open to anyone practicing any form of meditation
  16. Spiritual Guides

    why's that?
  17. Spiritual Guides

    thanks what you say makes sense it was a little too intense for me. it made my heart race a little. im only 17. i dont think im ready yet. maybe if i was in a more positive mood i would feel better about it.
  18. cultivation issue

    Just curious about a few things: do your sacral heart and thirdeye chakras double as your dan tiens or are they separate energy points? is there a limit to the amount of energy i can produce through my dan tiens/will i ever run out? haha do breathing exercises and/or kunlun recharge my energy or does Kunlun simply channel energy through my body? I know this is going to piss some people off, but I have the right to ask a kunlun question: The first two days of my practice I got crazy leg movements, but in the past two days I have only felt a gravity in my third eye. I can still feel a slight tremble in my feet. Should I extend my practice time or do you think I'm not letting go enough to allow the energy to flow?
  19. cultivation issue

    thanks, I acutally just did my practice and got the shakes. good point about third eye, my head feels less stoned than it normally does after meditation does your vision ever get 'shroomy' afte you practice? depth perception gets skewed and things move subtley
  20. It actually stopped raining before I began. This was my second time doing level 1 and it was so much more intense than my last one! Crazy leg bouncing, alot more in my right leg though. And now my body is humming especially near my third eye. I can't wait to do it again, maybe another session before I go to bed. If it continues to more and more intense i cant even imagine how great this is going to be. I'm smiling just thinking about it
  21. Just a quick question: its starting to rain and thunder around my house, do you think doing Kunlun in this manifestation of nature will enhance, supress, or not change my kunlun meditation?
  22. Kunlun Qs

    I just got my copy of Pillars of Bliss and read it through yesterday, but I have a few questions if anyone can help. The book mentioned an updraw technique for those who could not be completely celibate. I attempted this but had trouble either contracting my muscles enough of something because there was still emission but not as strong. I may just wait until I can be celebate later on in my training. Also, holding the level one position tires out my shoulder and traps, any pointers to extending my practice? I have done energy work before so I am used to some sort of current, do you think I could practice level 1 for 3 instead of 6 months? How do I know when I'm ready? What is the purpose of the fur/mat under the chair? Can I just have my feet touching the grass? Alot of the description in the book of kunlun bliss sounded like how someone feels when they are on psychodelic mushrooms, anyone who has experienced both, is this accurate? Anything else I should know now that im starting my training/anything you wish you knew when you started/any good pointers at all Thanks very much, Max
  23. Kunlun Qs

    Thanks so much for the information Does anyone know any of Max's students that are in my area (MA) that could give me the transmission, no way to make the CA seminar, I'm graduation that weekend
  24. Kunlun Qs

    Ya i really wish I had known about Kunlun before I missed the NJ seminar seeing as it seems Max will be going on an indefinate retreat after his europe seminar tour. How do you think I should go about getting the transmission? Possibly one of Max's students?
