and after i have done some progress, can go to impress others with dharma and then got beaten up, so i can feel shame of myself. PS: i already know that my energy is on horns, that means i am arrogant at defeault for now.

different terms are for that you would not need to speak the whole story over and over again. The terms therefore or locations are all concepts and you can't take them as "this is how it is done". inner alchemy, you start from scratch starting out as nobody with no skills. If you reach somewhere you would still not know what the terms are and how far you are. if you open the heart?(what is the heart really, no idea), you will know only through your own signs and if sign does not arise you can't make your move too.

Rich man coming to a slum. There will be two sides, admireres and jelous. Rich man does not belong to either group because he is not poor. The moment rich man understands he is different, ignorance has entered his mind and eventual downfall will happen. 1.Why awakened person is bulletproof? give right place and situation what awakened person hasn't yet experienced he will fall. 2.When ignorant person becomes awakened, his awakenment has risen from conditions and from awakenment eventually rises conditions. (as above so below). unless you are alone and refuse to play the game.

Discipline - is a way to rise wisdom. Suffering is characteristic of anything you are attached to. Body is attached to air, take air away and you suffer. Knowing suffering, was meant as if you don't recoqnize that characteristic you need more merit and virtue, and even more merit to start doing something to get rid of it and more merit to pick a right method and even more merit to pick the best method. Suffering is characteristic of all impermanent things. Whatever you do or mind state is, suffering is its characteristic.

trying to stop the thought is like trying to stop the loud noise from a person who is yelling for help suffering in hell.

Its like a fellow slave has broken out and leaving other slaves still prisoned. Reference to the body and mind. Mind liberated, body is still caged.

@Dawg what you are saying is just an idea because you are clinging to knowledge. To say something right is you are clinging to wrong. if you know you are awakened you are actually not.

if you dont know what is suffering then you need more discipline. Stop yourself doing what you like the most. Do something what you don't like. you can find attachments what are producing suffering. And thats gross level suffering, there is subtle suffering and even more subtle suffering.

How do you know that you eat meat? if you eat vegan just for the sake of knowing that eating meat is lessening suffering, it does not generate less suffering to the world. Or does it? How?

if earthly attachments are gone, then work with heavenly attachments, if they are gone too, then you can start over again since you can now see more.

The self who is aware is the "voice of delusion".- Samsara The deletion of intention is when you remove the self or the "I" who is aware. Hindus "i am" or objectless concentration.- Nirvana i assume Dawg entered Nirvana. He didn't made it as a object(objectless object) and realize it. Thats why Dawg is numb to ignorance and thinks he destroyed it. objectless object is mind. Object is matter. Samsara and Nirvana are equal, in a sense at the end of objectless concentration you take objectless object as object and dissolve it, after coming out of that jhana you can attain pranja wisdom. from 4th jhana i think Dawg entered Obe attained the yin powers and now clinging to them and making them better.

Close your eyes, you will see only hard lifeless space in front of you, idea is to join two eyes into one that you could learn to concentrate on the emptiness or the space within space. this way eventually you achieve onepointed concentration on that emptiness and receive a seed. The idea is that it will make a cavity where energies start gaining speed, over time they have achieved enough speed (even if you have forgotten meditation then you will be interested again in meditation), you can now slowly recognise these self-energies and start meditate on it to help it grow, eventually you will see energy in that space as tv snow(a peak experience), but there is balls of lights(was in my xp). how to meditate on these self energies is objectless meditation, you won't achieve on that stage 100 percent objectless but you can use your mind's eye and imagine what it would be 100% within on that space(where even the idea of space is gone) without holding onto something(and try to implement it in real). In order to achieve 100% you need to recognize now the source of where these energies are coming and returning and notice you can move these energies from one nose hole to another(for an example) at will. That means you have mastered the left and right channel, you can change the flow of energy at will. Now you can enter the center, its by making both flows equal, they will become together, you will get automatically identified with it due to you have not discovered some things yet what you will do later. But you still need to wake up from that state, shed the old skin. From there you realize "new skill", you don't have to mess around with the hard space but can continue with 2nd step achieving objectless concentration, but now the centerless center energy will rise as a circle and then cultivate that... this can be figured out on spot by listening, sensing energies, trial and error. There are lots of experiences all are some signs. after lower tandien is done you continue with the middle tandien. The Original spirit is said its your own face or the same characteristics as you have because it is, but unmanifested. Making manifested into one to reveal its true face.

if you don't start meditate seriously you won't come prodigy. progress is slow at the beginning but it escalades later, if you don't start you will lose more time than you think. edit: sorry of being off topic.

in the Surangama sutra you find your answer.

celibacy is the opposite to the mindset what you have written down. Alchemy point is to learn to transform jing to chi and chi to shen. If you are f... all the time then jing never turns to shen. jing is unmoving state, chi is when energy in your genitals start to vibrate(also lust becomes high), its the time to gather it because its probably the maximum amount you can hold. the skill how to harvest becomes better over time. Strict Celibacy is not very skillful but from somewhere have to start.

it would take you few years to immortality, enlightenment. Every next year it will become harder and harder to get that goal. Why bother with celibacy 10 years? is a mistery to me.

A good book Taoist Yoga : alchemy and immortality. http://www.universal-tao.com/article/immortals.html edit: took out my own content.

Biological clock is ticking. Whatever tradition, if you don't realize rainbowbody there is no guarantee you make it to the heavens/higher realms where rainbowbody is a vechile instead of 5 matter body down here. Rainbowbody attainment is also called second birth. "Steam entrant" has rainbowbody attainment. Its something like 2nd path(once-returner) is suitable to teach other beings.

lucid dream, you still have your own body but its lucid. Same fundamental thing is also when you attain rainbowbody your body becomes lucid.

no point.

ok!

what is your practice currently?

Energy starts moving, rotating. Knowing how to free up stagnant energy. Learning how to work with energy.

few thousand hours of intense learning on basics would be a good starting point.

when i look at the sun then it exists and when i don't then it should be all dark here.
