Empty Vessel

Recommended Posts

While reading a piece written by Michael Winn, I came across this:

 

For the curious, Details of Wang LI Ping's meditation techniques have already been published for free in the Empty Vessel, by someone else claiming to be his student, but obviously not interested in collecting a lot of money. The methods detailed in those articles basically involve cultivating "lines" of chi into the Third Eye and then down into the body along the same lines as detailed in the Inner Smile (front line of organs, back spine, middle digestive line). Looks like perfectly good meditation techniques.

 

 

Any idea which exact book he is talking about? Is it the one [or a series?] by Solala Towler? This does not seem to be available [all series] on Amazon. Would appreciate if someone can shed more light on the book containing Wang Liping's teachings.

Empty Vessel is a Taoist magazine and you can get it at any major chain bookstore.

hey darin,

 

 

PROCESS:

 

1) Listen to young maidens singing nonwestern trance music (i.e. Anuradha Paudwal, Bel M'bilia, etc.)

 

2) Practice SMALL UNIVERSE -- 12 notes of nonwestern scale = 12 energy points along two main energy channels. Get $11 c.d. for this practice from http://springforestqigong.com -- Level 1 sitting meditation.

 

3) Do standing tai-chi simple exercises -- shown online as free videos from http://springforestqigong.com.

 

4) Work your way into the full-lotus for final pineal gland breakthrough and then enjoy the free energy. Full-lotus = 4 equilateral triangles, each made up of two 2-3-4 triangles with 2:3 as yang and 3:4 as yin -- the perfect fifth and perfect fourth found in all nonwestern music healing cultures.

 

5) ENJOY NOT THINKING -- as the Bushmen state: "God watches the sick person, the healer trances her."

 

how long for each step in the process?

Dude -- I wrote that. You'd need the GONG (100 days) of small universe practice ($11 c.d. from http://springforestgong.com...)

 

Hold on...

 

Well there's no doubt that qigong master Chunyi Lin is aware of how money is equated with the value of a commodity. Maybe it was his Maoist upbringing (which, as detailed in the book, included facing off machine guns as a kid and having his family destroyed).

 

So, as per today's reading of the trendy underground leftist tract: TRANSCRITIQUE: ON MARX AND KANT by some Japanese dude --

 

there's a big difference between surplus value of LABOR versus surplus value (as per industrial temporal value-added processes).

 

Needtheless to say no one can deny that I've provide a cheap means of practical technique:

 

1) http://www.kheper.net/topics/Taoism/circul...n_of_light.html

 

That explains the small universe practice.

 

2) the small universe C.D. is $11 as Level 1 sitting meditation from http://springforestqigong.com

 

3) You can get the self-study course as a bit-torrent (which I'm too much of a neo-luddite to even know how to download but I'm sure you all know this easy enough).

 

4) The simple standing active exercises are available by youtube -- just search spring forest qigong.

 

5) after that it's all full-lotus freedom! As qigong master Chunyi Lin states -- the simpler technique is the more powerful. Nothing is more simpler than the full-lotus.

The sweet music is my own schtick.

 

I discovered in my masters thesis (2001) linked here: http://nonduality.com/hempel.htm that YANG is 2:3, the nonwestern perfect fifth music interval and YIN is 3:4, the Perfect 4th music interval. So in nonwestern music it's the same as Taoism -- used for spiritual healing. So at night I play female nonwestern singers -- just as the Bushmen listened to the females sing all night. I went to order Bushmen of the Kalahari C.D. -- british import for $38!! No thanks! haha. I'll find that yet, in the mean time I listen to M'bilia Bel (best of), Anuradha Paudwal (T-series), and other female singers of nonwestern harmonics.
