  1. I've been looking into the kunlun system. Just found out about it last night through this forum but I don't have a definitive answer as to how good, legitimate and effective it is. I found it because I made the decision to stop with the healing tao system as it is way too complicated and set up in a scholarly manner. It's actually off putting. I'm very pragmatic and drawn to simplicity and something more (doesn't have to be entirely effortless and practical. It seems like it's been a very long time since anyone has said anything about their journey in the kunlun system. For those who follow this system I have the following questions to ask: How are your experiences? Positive? Negative? With its very bold promises of being fast and super effective is the system legitimate?
  2. Yoga nidra (also known as yogic sleep or sleep yoga, and not to be confused with dream yoga) is a state of conscious deep sleep. Through yoga nidra one can sleep 30 minutes to an hour and that would equate to 3 or 4 hours of regular sleep. Yoga nidra was not designed to replace regular sleep but since one can stay conscious through sleep onset this means that hypnagogic imagery can be experienced which in turn can lead to lucid dreaming and astral projection. Dream yoga on the other hand is a Tibetan practice with some of the goals being to awaken the consciousness within the dream state or astral travel. Dream yoga and yoga nidra are where the dream practices that sprung up in the west, otherwise known as lucid dreaming, have their roots. My question here is (as asked in the topic title) does the tao contain it's own practice of yoga nidra and dream yoga?
