Max Christensen Interview

[Cameron]

Hi guys,

 

Here is an interview Max did shortly after he started teaching Kunlun publically. He answers most of the questions people might have about his system.

 

I wanted to make sure people knew about it and could hear it. I am not a spiritual teacher. I am just a regular guy trying to better myself and be a good influence to those whose path I cross in my life.

 

I am taking a long break from Tao Bums. It's an awesome place and I have many good friends here but for myself I feel my contribution is done. I have said everything I can say. And I do feel blessed to have gotten to know you guys.

Here is the page that the interview is on http://www.liahhoward.com/radio2007.html and here is a direct link to the mp3 itself.

 

I know that I probably focus on my criticisms to the extent that it blocks out my more rounded view - in that I know that many of Max's students receive benefit from his compassion and by applying the methods that he teaches.

 

Congrats to you Cameron towards your adventures, global and otherwise.

 

May each find their own way,

Keith

Thanks Cam. Sweet interview.

_/\_ see you soon brother!

Thank you for the interview link. I believe Max has written a new book, soon to be published in the next month or so. Looking forward to reading it.

 

For those of us who learned kunlun from one of his students and the book. Max is now offering consultation via skype video. The purpose is to help refine the practice.

 

Due to a change in my job circumstance, I recently had to read voluminous amount of technical material. I am in my late 40's now, but my comprehension and retention is better now than at any point in my life, and that is quite a statement!

 

kunlun, combined recently with zhan zhuang(wuji) and other Frantzis water methods has done wonders for my well being.

 

All the best.

It was a good interview. I was intrigued by Max's thoughts on DNA and abilities. Seems there's a lot of teachers claiming that qi-gong has an effect on it. But Max pointed to the race card. Anyone know anything about this stuff? I realise my question might be of the "can of worms" type but I'd like to suggest that we're all pretty "mixed" from a genetic POV at this point (even if in some quarters there are continuing attempts to categorize based on smaller and smaller differences, huh Mr Dulles?)

Is he implying you can't change your race from alchemical qigong? I have this research on how race affects alchemical qigong -- http://naturalresonancerevolution.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-melanin-secret-to-free-hydrogen.html

Yeah that also explains how water is created during bigu -- I was wondering how I could create water through the third eye -- how I was doing it? But this melanin model is that it turns electromagnetic energy to convert hydrogen and oxygen into water or vice versa.

I think the race thing refers to extraterrestrials and not different colors of human beings.

[Birch]

More Naga?

 

I think even that has been mixed up with all kinds of other things (if it exists in the first place, I don't know anything about it:-))

Reckon you could ask Max what he was referring to? Or Chris or someone?

Doesn't mean it can't also coexist with Drew's find:-) But it could mean some interesting limitations placed on actual "acheivement" in cultivation, hence maybe some "power envy" on the part of some, hence the race to replace with technologies. Speculating as usual:-)

[Aetherous]

Maybe I will ask in the next month or so when I do a skype session.

[Patrick Brown]

Mouster! LOL I'm sure that's what the interviewer said!

 

But seriously, let's ask a few questions:

 

Ordained Tantric Lama?

Hmm is this accepted as true and if so what are the credentials of Max's Tantric teacher?

5 Levels of Bliss?

Really? I mean why are there always levels involved in this kinda stuff? As far as I'm aware in Tibetan Buddhism the bliss just gets higher and higher depending on the frequency of ones practice/s.

 

Err, 99 levels of perception?

Again levels and yes I know that Tibetan Buddhism often does this but it is pointless and just creates confusion. Perhaps all these 99 levels of perception have a name? Beginning to sound like Scientology!

 

Diamond vision?

Oh my! Let's just make some cool sounding terms up as they're all good marketing tools!

 

Energy created by the mind?

Of course this is complete hokum as we all know about food, digestion and free electrons taken from air as we breath etc.

 

Abilities?

Again always good for marketing!

 

Immortality?

We're all going to die no matter how long we live. Spiritual immortality is a different kettle-o-fish.

 

Miraculous healings attributed to Kunlun?

Evidence please other than hearsay.

 

Sleep less eat less?

Of course with increased energy levels, especially if the body isn't digesting much food, you will sleep less. Just need to be careful that pineal secretions don't start leaking while you're awake as this will make you psychotic. Of course this is all part of the plan to help the student experience their true selves! Yeah right!

 

Eating meat?

Well Tibetan Monks do eat meat probably to keep their energy down. Of course eating too much meat is a waste of energy especially when you pass the age of forty.

50$ off seminar, is this interview just an advertisement?

Obviously this is an incentive i.e. Marketing!

 

It can only be used for positive things?

Really? I doubt the validity of this statement as time and time again it has been proved that people will misuse power.

"my hope is to open little places everywhere"?

The empire of Max? Of course this "hope" has nothing to do with money only Bodhisattva Max's good intentions!!

 

Commercialising keys to esoteric bliss?

OK so Max has come across a few tricks / methods to instil ecstatic states but does he really know what he's doing? Of course only Max's school will be licensed to teach Kunlun and you really do need to get that transmission from an approved teacher!! What balls!

Why doesn't Max just get a Job?

You know a simple little cleaning job a few days a week or perhaps some work in a book shop at weekends? Nah! Let's make some money!

[Aetherous]

That was a lot of work, regarding a teacher who only does a few inexpensive seminars a year.

Don't start!

 

If Max "was" enlightened he'd keep his mouth shut! But as we all can see...

 

 

 

[Aetherous]

You might be interested to know, a lot of what he speaks of is Tibetan in origin.

 

For instance, the "five types of bliss" which you were asking about is also part of tummo and the 6 yogas of Naropa.

 

I don't think Max needs to defend his enlightenment, nor do I.

In that case, why have any of us typed a single word on this forum?

[Aetherous]

[Patrick Brown]

 

You wish!

 

 

 

[Aetherous]

No need. "Path of no more learning".

Good point JB.

Awesome! Picture-o-gram rumble:-)

 

You guys

I also found this article about the Science and History of Kunlun very interesting. It goes into stuff I haven't really heard get tied into Taoist practices before.

Thanks for the link Cameron.

 

This reads like an excerpt from Max's upcoming book. Looking forward to reading it. All the best.

[Cameron]

It's great to hear people who are benefitting from Kunlun. Reflecting on the past few years, my opinion is that Kunlun is very positive. And the people who reported negatively are simply experiencing the releasing of all their "stuff".

 

Rather then freak out about about the process, try to relax and allow the practices to open you up. It would be awesome if in the future people on Tao Bums attain Gold Dragon or Gold Phoenix Body. I think it is possible. My advice is avoid the drama and just focus on your own awakening. Be a light as much you can to others.

 

Well, back to my break for awhile. Live long and prosper lol.
