Torus Posted January 26, 2014 Hello everyone, I'm a teen from the U.S. and I typically meditate before sleeping for about 10-20 minutes. I recently heard about and read a book called the Magus of Java; although some parts of this book seemed ridiculous, I think that it has some truth in it. Ever since I read this book, I've been taking meditation more seriously, doing horse stances, and have been looking into all kinds of energy systems, martial arts, beliefs, etc. with the intention of becoming more spiritual, acquring powers (lucid dreaming/out-of-body-experience, healing, others) and gaining more self-control. Anyways, thanks for reading and I hope to enjoy this website and community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
