  1. Finally something that suggests mindfulness?

    Since our unconscious or the higher self close to the Tao is much larger than our consciousness, there is no point in consciously to become aware of everything..because you can't.
  2. Finally something that suggests mindfulness?

    Is not aware as a conscious act. Rather, to become aware of various factors and law of causality or acausality. A sense of insight and intuition resulted from being with the Tao and knowing the Tao.
  3. Mindfulness or Mindlessness?

    Don't get too caught up with words. It is about not unclinging. It is about letting it go. That's all you need to know. Not about being obsessively "mindful" of something.
  4. Anyone here frequently dream about a specific color? My color is blue. A lot of times, this color would appear in my dreams and begins to associate with the throat chakra literally, something relating to the throat itself....blue chocolate that I wanted to eat, while I was in my old work place. Although the experience was pleasant, it is not a place I want to still dream about. Yet, I am frequently dreaming about my old work place and my old boss. A window with a blue sky on the other side. It lured me in and I found myself in a museum filled with ghosts and spirits. Another recurrent symbol is a door, a tunnel. Some small opening I was trying to get through. It just hits me that maybe my mind is telling me to develop my throat chakra further. A lot of times, in these dreams, I found myself too big to fit through this tinny opening. Not sure what it said about the throat chakra. One thing for sure, based on various reading, having a properly functioning throat chakra would also open one's center channel. Also, having a properly cultivated throat chakra, one can discern illusions from reality. That's something I am trying to figure out. I feel that my mind is being clouded by some illusions...that's because I am having visions about my future in which I am not able to determine if it would become a reality in my real life. Yet, these visions are very powerful.
  5. Dreaming about color and chakras...

    Thanks but that's not it. My chi channels are open and usually during the early morning, around 4am to 7am, my body would complete the microcosmic orbit naturally with a radiant chi light in my third eye....while trying to sleep. In my dreams, I am rarely by myself, usually with beings shaping my perspectives and how would I behave in the dream world. Another blue color dream last night. A blue heavy backpack and a blue notebook and wearing a blue traditional Chinese clothing (think of Bruce Lee wearing blue clothing). It was Chinese New Year. Ironically, everything that has happened in my last night dream was really and clearly illusional. I dream I was back in my birth city Hong Kong and talking to my highschool friends in America. And I caught myself lying about the Hong Kong culture since I really have little knowledge about this city other than from my childhood experiences...which were unpleasant. I caught myself lying about my age and my college major....talking to my friends...hahahah....I don't lie in my dreams unless I am talking to some unpleasant entities employing various psychic attacks. However, I never like Hong Kong for various reasons...hmmmm... maybe whenever I see the blue color in my dreams, I am experiencing a moment in which I have to or I have the ability to discern the reality from illusions. There were so much BS in my last night dream about Hong Kong that I felt I have wasted my energy in dreaming it.....
  6. Dreaming about color and chakras...

    It could be...I just had another vision this morning.... I was trying to enter to a high speed subway train from the front of the cart, another opening into a tube like structure. I saw the LED display telling me "you can not...." Apparently, in this dream, the train took a different path and I was forced to get off in order to find my ways to reach to my destination. Where? Didn't know... Once I got off, I wanted to return back to the same train (because I was too confused) but this young man blocked my way. Told me I couldn't enter the train again. Before he pulled up the lock, I was expecting him to close the door on me too. I had many dreams dealing with the same theme. Wanting to return or to retrace my path but was told usually by some beings that I could not or I should not because I am not supposed to do that. I feel like Neo in Matrix stuck in the train station....waiting for his friends (somewhere out there) to rescue him....hehehe
  7. Immortality & Crossing Over Question

    Ha...hmmm..actually, you would have seen this light long before your death, when your chi channels are open...when you are circulating the microcosmic orbit. If you are an accomplished cultivator, you will ascend to one of the heavenly realms, similar to the Buddhist cosmology, I believe. You would still subject to the law of karma and reincarnation but you don't have to be immediately to be reborn. Obviously, your spouse must be able to advance in her cultivation. Otherwise, she would be subjected to the law of karma and would be reborn immediately....based on her merits and her cultivation accomplishment or the lack of.
  8. Hmmmm...not exactly because there are various stages of enlightenment process based on the degree of your Samadhi levels. One thing for sure, you aren't even close to become enlightened if you haven't experienced various state of Samadhi and Dhyanas. Also, not just anyone can obtain the final liberation in one life time. So, hell yeah, you will be reborn again. If you have acquired certain degree of cultivation, you may be reborn again as one of the gods in the heavenly realm but would only need to reborn again as a human being once in an eon.
  9. I just want to add that there are reincarnations. If it wasn't for reincarnations, there would be no karmas. If there are no karmas, you won't be cultivating your mind to become liberated from the world of Samsara. Also, the degree of your cultivation process depends on your past life merits and whether or not, in your past life, you have reached certain cultivation levels. Yet, you can't obtain the complete liberation in a single life time because....the process takes a long time, few life time of merits. Some people may be more advanced in their cultivation levels not because they are smarter and hard working... Is because they have accumulated enough merits from their past life which allows them to advance in their cultivation levels more quicker. When your third eye is open as well as the center channel, you will have visions about your past life, trust me on that.
  10. Enlightenment Is An Exclusive Destination

    Hehehe...looks like he has a long, long way to go. No one said unclinging one's illusions is easy.....
  11. Enlightenment Is An Exclusive Destination

    I have to ask the 2 brothers, dressed in the Han dynasty clothing, I saw in my vision/dream, prior to my kundalini energy raising...some 20 years ago. Taoist perhaps..... Zen's transmission of the mind?? You can also look up Pratyekabuddha yana if you like.. And you think it isn't Buddhist? And based on your experiences, perhaps??? How to uncling? Try psychoanalysis or Carl Jung's Analytical Psychology. Surely, with the modern age we are living in, even if you aren't well versed in the Buddhist teachings, you should be able to have some ideas about the nature of your suffering and illusions derived from your attachment to the skandha of forms. If you have more questions, try to read up on Master Nan Huai Chin's works. I walk the path. I don't preach it...see no need to. Don't have to prove anything....
  12. Enlightenment Is An Exclusive Destination

    Hehehehe......experiences. To uncling the illusions and suffering from the your own skandha of form by perceiving its original nature...which is impermanent. This isn't some lip service thing here. You must uncling this illusions which would result in your change of life styles, habits, and world views. This will unleash your Kundalini energy (literally), period. The Dharma gates are boundless and tied to your own karmic affinities or connections, in your current life time with your own current issues. That is the knot you must unknot yourself. After that, you will receive guidance from various immortals and other spirits through dreams and visions. The rest of the path is about walking through the experience one step at a time. Talking and preaching??? You will be lucky if you didn't go crazy or being wrapped up by your past life karma throughout the process. There...done. And of course, once you have entered through the Dharma gate, you will continue to refine your mind by meditation. And to refine your ability to enter to various states of Samadhi and to acquire various transcendental wisdom. And hopefully, by the time you are done with this world and ready to pass away, you would have enough merits to ascend to one of the heavenly realms, where you may not need to reborn again for another couple of hundreds of years. Maybe you can even obtain the complete liberation in this life time.
  13. Enlightenment Is An Exclusive Destination

    Oh, BTW, one can't talk about enlightenment unless you have found and entered one of the 84k dharma gates.
  14. Enlightenment Is An Exclusive Destination

    Hahaha...yes, I supposed you will become the teacher here.... Seriously, you have no ideas what you are talking about...your rants miss one crucial point...how do you see yourself? Do you know what you yourself is wrapped in what illusions? The source of all illusions begins from you, yourself, your life and your perspectives. Is what you see yourself.... What sorts of transcendental truths you have perceived of yourself so far? Come back here later when you can answer my question? Besides, you must remember that there are thousands of immortals who have become enlightened throughout the ages (think of thousands of years). Whatever you think you have discovered isn't anything new.
  15. Synchronicities are...

    Well, I have been sensing another disturbance in the force ...something about to happen soon...not sure if it is about my life or some other world events.
  16. Synchronicities are...

    I thought this is frightening interesting relating to my Vader fighting Luke dream, with Ukraine...heheheh... http://rt.com/news/vader-presidential-hopeful-ukraine-885/
  17. Thoughts on Ukraine / Russia Debacle?!

    These Ukrainian militia groups, the Self Defense Force, are largely made up by the Ukrainian neo-Nazis, the Right Sectors right wing political party. These members have been harassing local businesses who were pro Russian at one point, TV editors and businessmen. Few days ago, one of the Right Sector organizers was gunned down by the Ukrainian police force. He was also wanted by Russia for his involvement in the Chechen war. The members of the Right Sectors, who were largely responsible for storming the govt building and to stage a coup, vow to avenge his death. The IMF won't lend money to Ukrain without a stable govt. Obviously, right wing, radical, neo-Nazi who are anti-Russian would jeopardize the stability of the current interim Ukrainian govt. There are talks about the EU and the US to bail out Ukraine away from the IMF framework because the IMF's conditions for the loans are usually pretty harsh. Look at the Greece bailouts for an example.
  18. I try to keep this short. Basically, through various visions and dreams, I conclude that my yin energy is dominant, and I am supposed to follow my yin in my quest to find myself a new path. This yin energy is manifested, most of the times, as strangers or women I knew long time ago but don't have any contacts to them anymore. Like my old boss or some strange old lady. Yeah, I am feeling at lost for a while now but can't seem to be able to find a footing as to where to go with my life right now. Is not easy. Regardless what psychic ability I have about seeing the future, a lot of my future does not make sense at all. Worst, nothing is really going on with my waking life. What does it mean if my mind is telling me to follow my yin, as the energy manifested as female figures? Strange enough, in these visions, I wasn't actively following these female figures. I was just walking behind them or following their paths in an unintentional way. Worst, I don't have any meaningful connection to any significant others that may fit this yin role. Few nights ago, I dream there was a woman sleeping next to me, like my cousin but this cousin of my I haven't seen for over 10 years because we don't live in the same country anymore. I am lost but glad I can still see the future of world events unfolding....hehehe....sigh...
  19. Thoughts on Ukraine / Russia Debacle?!

    What do you need to know? The Crimea fate is Wu Wei Wu. Yet, the West seems to be hell bend on it to prevent it from happening. What do you get when your actions are going against the Tao? The Tao does not care. In fact, the Crimea secession is the yin. Yin gives rise to Yang...in this case, the possible expansion of the Russian army into the Eastern part of Ukraine in order to restore law and order there. Yang is rising in the Eastern part of Ukraine with pro-Russia sentiment. Because the West knows not the Tao, they haven't been preparing for the Yang rising....
  20. Synchronicities are...

    I have one. Well, is Ukraine. I won't get into the details here but the night before the coup, I felt a strong sense of something being split into two. Like my mind was divided into two. Like my consciousness is aware of two persons thinking about the same event all at once. This simultaneous consciousness sensation of being conscious of 2 minds...this sensation was manifested in Star Wars symbols (Luke and Vader fighting). Luke killed Vader. I was seeing Luke and Vader twice but both experienced different events. The next morning I was reading the news and read about the coup and how the opposition party stormed the Kiev government building and taking over the pro-Russian govt. It dawned on me that not only the country will be split in the two but also within the opposition, which most political commentators aren't talking about that. Last night I couldn't sleep. My mind was still trying to figure out what would happen in Ukraine. I begin to worry if maybe something is happening in Ukraine and that was why my mind wasn't at rest. Well, this morning, unidentified heavily arm guards speaking Russian stormed the Crimean government building and took over regional government. The regional govt decided to have a referendum on the autonomy status of Crimea. Most likely Crimea would secede from Ukraine. This will get decided on May 25, the same day the Ukraine govt will elect their new president. Sorry about all the political talks.... You may ask what is the big deal about Ukraine being split into two, along the ethnic line. It was important enough that my mind was really bothered by the Star Wars vision.
  21. Synchronicities are...

    One problem I have with the way we have been describing synchronicity is the "meaning" part. It seems that to categorize the events or sequent of events as synchronicity, we have to prescribe conscious meaning to them. This can be anything from some crazy Christians claiming God is everywhere, to some self serving meaning for a particular individual. What makes these sequence of events accusal? Our lack of models to explain them because they are normally not so apparent. Another example I have is the ticking sound I often hear during meditation. It is a well known reported meditation phenomena. Why? It happens 90% of the time but I have yet read anything to explain it. I read about some reference to having your heart chakra opened. Synchronicity is still events based on a different model of causality chain which we aren't aware of. It gets complicated when synchronicity is taking place within our society. As we all know, social norms and habits and customs are more or less not natural.
  22. feeling lucky?

    You are assuming you can control the outcome of your actions. Easy stuff yes. More difficult endeavors like in a relationship or marriage or endeavors that you have become too attached to. Usually, in these situations, you are just going with the flow. Luck is what luck is. Things turning out good regardless what you do. Like being ticketed by the cops but the cops decided not to show up during the court hearing and the tickets are dismissed. You have no ideas why the cops didn't show up and etc. Or your old credit card company is after you with a lawsuit, for money. But you managed to get the entire debt erased because the plaintiff wasn't able to produce any evidence to prove that you owed the credit card money. Or someone is trying to kill you with their SUV because you are riding your bicycle. For some reasons maybe because of your chi, you didn't collide with the SUV on the side even though you only have 4 seconds to come to a full stop traveling at 23mph. And somehow, you did a Matrix move in slow motion and did a 90 degree controlled powerslide and ended not hitting the side of the SUV. Oh yeah, that was some experience...heheheh Yeah, I usually get lucky when my life was in danger.
  23. Synchronicities are...

    True and of course I didn't really concern too much about the black coal symbol or the Berlin Golden Bear Award. It was nice a Chinese film won it but I am not a big movie fan. Given with my track records of dreaming about foreign head of states and their foreign minsters and the Middle East conflicts and even the Chinese aircraft carrier before the world knew about its debut, I have high confidence that the dream was making a reference to the movie.
  24. Synchronicities are...

    I think I have one...precognitive dreaming. One of the powers I have is precognitive dreaming. They are pretty accurate when dealing with external events, especially with international politics and the NSA scandals. Hehehe... Not so when dealing with myself. Go figure. 2 weeks ago I had this dream or vision. Is another one of my train or subway dreams. What was unusual about it was that I saw a locomotive or a steam engine train stopping at the platform, in front of me. The train's cargo was black coals. So, this train was all black and it has that industrial feel to it. The train symbol represents a path or "train of events" being unfolded. The thing with the precognitive dreaming is that many of these visions do not have a context or you aren't aware of the context. Is like you are thrown into a situation and things happen. Now, few days later, the Chinese film "Black Coal Thin Ice" won the Berlin International Film festival. http://news.yahoo.com/diao-yinan-39-39-black-coal-thin-ice-190341293.html Personally, I always get my daily dosage of German news and news from China and so I am "connected" to what is happening in both countries. However, I didn't know which films were being nominated.
  25. Synchronicities are...

    Actually, it is karma that causes events to happen, regardless if you like it or not. However, synchronicity goes beyond just prescribing conscious meanings in random events which may have nothing to do with one another. Does it mean synchronicity does not occur just because you may not have the consciousness to grasp the meaning of random events occurring? Or synchronicity only makes sense to you because you the one prescribing the consciousness meaning?
