findley Posted August 6, 2009 kunlun is an ENERGY PRACTICE that serves only to enhance the TEMPORAL SELF. PROMISES given by kunlun advocates BLIND others from achieving ENLIGHTENMENT-- only tempting the practitioner with ENHANCEMENTS OF THE TEMPORAL SELF. one must learn to recognize the MYSTERIOUS PASS, and to carry it with them throughout the day. Dwelling in the ATEMPORAL is the only means to enlightenment. YES ! SEE GHOSTS ! ENHANCE YOUR BODILY PRESENCE ! BECOME A 'BEING OF LIGHT' ! -don't you see, these are only TEMPORAL TEMPTATIONS ?! I promise you, you want to practice to attain ENLIGHTENMENT. It is infinitely more 'correct' than practicing to attain a 'light body' ! -Learn to recognize the mysterious pass! carry it with you through the day ! THIS is true evolution !

Sloppy Zhang Posted August 6, 2009 are you 12 or something? you sway like the breeze. The 12 year old that bends, you know, does not break For the topic, I think it's discussed a bit in the thread about Bodri and the whole "sitting" vs. "energy work" debate. They are two aspects. Obviously if you focus too exclusively on one at the expense of the other, you will miss out on something. Just like broccoli is good for you, if you exclusively eat broccoli thinking you will become the most healthy person on the planet.... a few surprises might be in store Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xabir2005 Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Tao Te Ching chapter 1: The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal name The nameless is the origin of Heaven and Earth The named is the mother of myriad things Thus, constantly free of desire One observes its wonders Constantly filled with desire One observes its manifestations These two emerge together but differ in name The unity is said to be the mystery Mystery of mysteries, the door to all wonders Edited August 6, 2009 by xabir2005 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

minkus Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) reply with your bullshit one-liners, but, OF COURSE, avoid discussion of the topic presented ! Criticize me, however ignore my words ! You make me sick, you filthy trash ! Your words about the mysterious pass are vague to put it mildly. It sounds very mysterious like this yep. The topic including the title is provoking another system, there has been enough discussion about kunlun without the need to open another thread about it. Your discussion and the title of the topic smells like trollbait. Any sign of respect is missing so im not suprised people would avoid discussion. You could be the most enlightend hsien in the world but it doesnt show in your posts, yet. Enjoy. Edit: this whole thing reminds me strongly of star7umper or what was he's name.

Ryan T. Posted August 6, 2009 You dumb, god-damned fools-- You make me sick, you filthy trash ! While you seem passionate about what you stated in your opening post, I think you hamper your purpose in posting in the first place with the like of the above quote. Why post at all if you do it in a manner that is so extreme and inflammatory? I find it hard to take anyone seriously when they spew insults and disdain. IMO, a lacking of maturity and understanding underlie such comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thelerner Posted August 6, 2009 I took a seminar and while its not a main practice, Kunlun is part of what I do. I see it as a quick simple meditation, an unusual mix of emptiness and spontaneous gi gung that has no particular philosophy. Max's stories and histories frankly went in one ear and out the other. I've experienced no ghosts, body enhancements or beings of light, no bliss either, but I've come to realize I'm not that kind of guy. I don't buy into any ones hype of enlightenment. There are too few accessible role models. I've given up the chase, which may paradoxically bring it closer. My aim is temporally set for the here and now. Maybe a little bit for the rest of the day and week. As a 'house hold' practitioner, I applaud the hard core for there discipline, but I've got mortgage, wife and kids. Philosophy and even practice take second place to the necessities of life. For me and my ilk best is whats simple and accessible. We don't have hours to practice or weeks to travel to exotic teachers. Nor does deep philosophical discussions matter much, been there done that; if it doesn't inspire me to make a change in my life then its just another TV commercial. Maybe Kunlun is false if you see it as the be all and end all. As a practice its can be good and powerful, though I'm glad people are getting warned that anything powerful can burn too.

Inedible Posted August 6, 2009 I have some one-liners for you, too. You dumb, god-damned fools-- I do feel a bit dumb for expecting to find a serious discussion in this thread. reply with your bullshit one-liners, but, OF COURSE, avoid discussion of the topic presented ! Criticize me, however ignore my words ! You make me sick, you filthy trash ! Admit it: you got what you asked for. Adam West, I will share directly with you the concept of the occult opening in a PM. I would sooner piss on these other fools than share with them. Spitting on us when you rant isn't sharing. --You know, Bodri's emphasis has always been on emptiness...

CarsonZi Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Hi Findley but if their discussion is swamped by shit-brains, I think I should be generally disappointed. I have no desire to step into the middle of this $hit throwing contest, but I feel it is worth pointing out to you that if you feel "disappointed" by someone or something, this is indication that you have unrealistic expectations (ALL expectations are unrealistic). You really have no right to expect that others should understand/properly interpret what you are saying....you have no right to expect that others SHOULDN'T have $hit for brains. All "shoulds" are projections. Drop your expectations and there will be a lot less need for the name calling.
