  1. On Kundalini and thought constructs

    I believe we are exactly in accord!
  2. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    That would equal chemical storage, right? It has to be stored somewhere - I believe in ionization effects. I just want to know where the extra electrons have moved to.
  3. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    Vortex = good...similar to standing wave...i was considering it as a rapidly fluctuating loop that moves in circular patterns, but vortex is another good simile. Talk more about what you think - you might assist me in my efforts more than you think.
  4. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    I wonder if you read my post - all teachings require some theory - and I aim to make a new and improved theory. please keep in mind that while I am an avid practitioner of the arts, and have experienced almost every aspect that can be experienced over my time, I am also a researcher/scientist, and this too is my passion. My arrogance has taken me far. I intend to trust it until the beautiful end, as its whats kept me going in the long run. Trust not the thing that moves you not, trust that which moves you far.
  5. Leave him alone (and don't) he is in his process. He deserves to be respected and told to stop being an idiot. Do you see what I mean
  6. You will be allowed to return to your loves when you graduate from college. Stop bitching about the way things are and become a man. There is a thing called 'The fallacy of fairness' in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Essentially we all want the world to run on our schedule. When we get off our high horse and start unifying ourself with the cosmos, instead of expecting it to kneel down before us, we suddenly realize that we always were who we wanted to be. I promise you you won't lose anything by trusting K - you will gain awesomeness and become the creative genius you always wanted to be. Trust me (please). I am the man who has walked your path before - I know the routes. Our path won't be exactly the same, but in a way, all paths are one. If you haven't figured it out by now, you come to this site to learn, not to argue with your teachers. It's time you learned to surrender.
  7. Pranayama science discussion

    thanks - I will check it out...
  8. Pranayama science discussion

    yes...she has good points, but a lot of misinformation too (don't we all!) I haven't ever read the whole thing...I will have to get around to it one day
  9. Actually its quite exciting...whenever we break our routines, suddenly life feels fresher, and also you become a more interesting person. When I was a drummer, I loved it for years, then my DNotS hit and I suddenly didnt care anymore, but then I got into martial arts and dance and yoga for a while and I was back in business. When shakti kept pushing me in different directions, I kept trying new things all the time. I became a much more well rounded person over the years, trying out many hobbies. You become a jack of all trades, master of life! Do not be attached to old ego-grinds, find new talents all the time.
  10. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    Energy cannot stand still though - so it must be a continuous circling.
  11. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    Yeah, in some ways standing waves make sense, and in some ways chemical storage makes sense...for neigong and chi emission in martial applications, it would seem to be a quicker way to release energy, as chemical conversion to energy would take some time vs. standing wave emission. On the other hand, I remember that some of the Shaolin monks, etc. would take some time to meditate before emitting large amounts of chi, as in Red Sand Palm technique, which might be related to internal efforts to convert chemical battery into electrical force....I will keep up the exploration.
  12. Lower Dantien and the Elixir fields

    hmm...never thought of that. I was thinking about it all night and I was wondering if it could be stored as some type of standing wave pattern perhaps other places besides lower dan tien? Maybe all over body in various places (nexuses). It's a possible-probability and actually the thing that makes the most sense to me today. Further updates soon.
  13. Go to India! Take a swing dance class! Challenge your matrix! Eat mushrooms! Die trying to live! I have had not one, not two, but three dark nights of the soul...one of them lasted about 2 years!!! All the way to the bank now babes. By this day tomorrow I will live inside the bank and never leave it again, or else I am am a dead gone ringer!!
  14. On Kundalini and thought constructs

    I think that the Gods are both thought constructs and real...but that there is only one god - the energy everywhere, which has ten thousand names (shakti being one of them). It can take limitless forms. Thought constructs have their limitations, thus they are puppets of fate as you say, whereas Shakti has infinite expressions and cannot be contained, only enjoyed.
  15. A tale of Daoist sexual interests

    Also, there is this: men tend to be more randy, they like porn more than erotica (in general), while women tend to be more sensual - they tend to like erotica more than porn. If I had said 'make sweet love' instead of 'get her done,' no one would have complained I imagine, so it is a matter of aesthetics and learned taste. The intent behind the meaning is exactly the same, but from different language sets. Mine was simply flippant and whimsical, making light of a sacred thing, because that brings the sacred into normal reality instead of elevating it onto a pedestal. This is simply the age old battle of the gender lines. Many women like being dominated (as do many men), and many men like to dominate (as do women), but it is a joke that stays in the bedroom mainly..unless you are a scenester. There is no harm in expressing male dominating concepts lightly in the spirit of play. Relatively speaking. Saying anything absolutely is fraught with internal error from the get-go. The true fact is, at least from my observations, that a good percentage of women tend to 'top from the bottom' and their men don't mind at all, because it is actually fun to serve your lover. It's what makes love relationships interesting - the two-way street of energy-exchange. Sometimes in order to have a correct balance of YinYang energy exchange in relationships, one must polarize gender identities - especially if both partners aren't perfectly YInYang balanced within. So extreme polarity works good on many levels, if the people are well matched.
  16. longevity - good or bad?

    I would have sworn I had tried that before...oh well...I miscommunicated with myself...I still haven't gotten Dragon fully trained...its about 85% accurate now...sometimes its hard to start new habits. It works so fast though...they say 3x as fast...but I say 4x... I
  17. longevity - good or bad?

    How do you break up the quotes like that? I need to learn how to do that. Anyways, in response I use scenario visualizations to create states of mind to see what I would feel like in that state - it is actually very similar to using Dakini visualizations. I have been doing it for years and it is part of my spiritual practice. It works, if you are into it. I know that I am a hedonist by nature, and that if I could have some type of immortal, or at least long-lived bliss filled life, I would choose to do so. I don't judge others who turn away from the bhoga path. I would still have spiritual pursuits, and in fact would pursue my own version of the bodhisattva ideal while living a hedonistic (but ethical) life. It's true that pleasure/pain are impermanent, but even impermanence is impermanent, as everything just changes form, but energy never dies...so it all depends on relativistic stance. When looked at from the large view, the illusions change endlessly, but the absolute reality is nonborn, nondying. A good quote which I am paraphrasing is that one's nature, whether it is mortal or immortal, will never change - the mortal cannot become immortal, the immortal cannot become mortal - I agree with this myself. None of my aggregates will cease to exist, they will only change form, eternally, unless Nirvana is a real and attainable state, and I am not so sure about it. So I know that my essence, although I do not know exactly what it really is, is immortal, and omnipresent. My original point was that those who lead lives that are more pleasurable, will on average be happier staying alive, and that those with more unpleasurable lives will tend to have stronger urges to die. Eros and Thanatos. The two sides of the coin of life/death. Eros is the desire for life, love, consumption, gaining more and more, having more and more bliss, and Thanatos is desire for death, ending it all, getting rid of the burdens, wanting to become consumed, and end to pain.
  18. On Kundalini and thought constructs

    I also believe it's not our job to go around evolving other people, unless we choose it to be. We can simply choose to be the healthiest way within ourselves, which means not letting oneself get pulled into interpersonal conflict. One can simply become empty and no matter what comes in, we can simply watch it and let it go. Others will see our power and respect that and will still learn from that regardless. They will learn from us, but we will not be trying to teach them. I think non-confrontationalism is maturity. It is hard to not defend ones ego though. Of course there always comes a time to step up and defend oneself if one is taking a direct assault, but ego assaults only hurt if you aren't realized that ego is an illusion. It is good to be reminded of this often...which getting in confrontation will teach us. Make enough mistakes, and those mistakes won't be made anymore.
  19. longevity - good or bad?

    Would longevity be good if you never physically aged, and had perfect health, and felt great emotionally/mentally, and had enough money to never worry about basic needs? I would say yes, and I think most people would agree. Which really indicates that if one is feeling good - longevity is good, and if one feels bad, longevity is bad. It's all about suffering/pleasure and which state you are in most of the time. I remember times when I was extremely sick, or when I was in prison, and I wished I would just die right then. I prayed for the end. And i remembered times I was on top of the world - recently in fact, where I wished for immortality because I never wanted to leave this place. It's all about pleasure/pain balance.
  20. Word demons

    When people use words like: "Chill," etc. they are making their mouth movements produce sounds which have effects. This can cause actual body reactions. Suppose i said to you, "Hey! Look over there!" You would instantly look where I pointed. So the power of words to heal or hate is guaranteed. When people say negative things like, "That's ugly!" or "That's gross" it immediately brings to mind a feeling a grossness, as words are linked with their definitions. Suppose I told you to "Fuck off!" would you immediately hate me? I would. So be careful when using your words...don't let anyone tear you up with your words. People use words like glass knives. Shooting them left and right. It becomes a pain game - meant to inflame the mind palace. Practice patience, and live in the now, and stuff...don't create word puzzles in your head to create pain in other people. I am guilty of this too. Everyone uses words to heal or hurt, but sometimes we don't realize that we are doing it. If we all step back from our emotions a bit, and let our bodies calm down, we can begin to begin again. Say nice things. I will try harder to be nice myself.
  21. Word demons

    I now have ten thousand arms and eyes instead of cute baby fangs. You will now know my measure.
  22. Shakti plays her funny games, pretending she is you most of the time...pushing your subconscious into view. 99% of the time she is you exactly you, butx10 - magnifying your secret self so you can see you. Then every once and a while she drops the game, especially once you start thinking that she is really you, and says 'Surprise!' then hits you with wicked bliss! Is she the ananda? Or the master of ananda? I think both...she is beyond-ananda...she is the energy of ananda, but also is divine mind beyond time...She is your servant, most of the grind, then switches back to master and puts you in line....
  23. Gambling? Winning money from other players?

    Perhaps metal molecules like to be moved?
  24. Irritated were I shouldn't! Help!

    I tried it, it's cool. I feel so girlish I wonder if it would make sense to visualize yoni when sending chi down Yin channel, and then switch to lingam when bringing chi up Yang channel?
  25. Gambling? Winning money from other players?

    I just looked at the scientific reports on insect neurology and they seem to think no...but obviously I don't know for sure, because I am not an insect...it's obvious they have bioelectrical nervous systems just like us..but their senses are more limited. I definitely make attempts to remove unwanted guests from my houses by placing them outside where they belong, but if I have an ant infestation, say, I might have to go get the ant traps, and yes I will feel bad, but the suffering of them crawling all over me when I sleep is greater than the suffering I feel in killing them.
