  1. Merging and guru yoga

    Hi CT! Just wanted to add that Jerry A. Johnson does talk about the unification of the chakras in his daoist neigong book....though it is short. all the best Michael
  2. Connecting with Deities

    Hi! Yes real divine beings can appear to multiple beings at the same time. In fact divine beings are, as they are divne, omnipresent. Where as lower beings cannot do that until they realized divinity themselves. best
  3. No. the lineage of neidan that is described in the book "taoist yoga" is qianfen pai. the book is a shortened version of a secret training manuel. they initate westerners. the website from the netherlends is from a guy who is initiated into that lineage. http://www.qianfeng.nl/?page_id=9 http://www.qianfeng.org/ best
  4. Already Tired of Ignorance

    Hi! Being a catlover......i love that picture.....really funny!! best
  5. Hi Phoenix3! No it is not carried in the body. the yuanjing the neidan schools talk about is more like our battery and losely ascociated with the kidneys. Yes, the ming (yuan jing/yuan chi) is yang, but pre-heaven yang...which is a "pure" yang. That is why it is refilled....they increase the pre-heaven yang to merge it into the xing (to make the soul completely yang and produce the yang shen).
  6. Postnatal Jing (Post-Heaven Essence) Kidney Jing Kidney Jing plays important role in physiology. Is hereditary, like Prenatal Jing and determines constitution. However, is partly replenished by the Postnatal Jing. Stored in the Kidneys but has fluid nature and circulates all over the body, especially in the Eight Ancestral (Extraordinary) Vessels. Forms the basis for growth, development, sexual maturation, and reproduction. Moves in long, slow cycles, and presides over the major phases of development in life. The first is in childhood. Kidney Jing controls growth of bones, teeth, hair, brain development and sexual maturation. Where Kidney Jing is weak, there may be poor bone and teeth development, stunted growth, and mental retardation. Puberty. Kidney Jing controls reproductive function and fertility, and normal development into adulthood. Developmental problems that occur at this time such as amenorrhea, are often related to weak Kidney Jing. Conception and pregnancy are guided and controlled by Kidney Jing. Where Kidney Jing is weak, signs such as infertility, chronic miscarriage and other such problems may occur. Kidney Jing declines naturally, finally producing the characteristic signs of hair/teeth loss, impairment of memory, etc. Kidney Jing is the basis for Kidney Qi Jing is fluid-like and therefore more Yin. Can be considered as an aspect of Kidney Yin. Forms the material basis for production of Kidney Qi (via the warming action of Kidney Yang. Kidney Yin is warmed by Kidney Yang and Kidney Qi is formed, but Kidney Jing is necessary before this transformation can occur. Deficiency of Kidney Jing can thus result in such problems as impotence, chronic weak or sore lower back, weak knees, tinnitus, urinary incontinence, deafness, loose teeth, etc. (all signs of weak Kidney Qi and/or Yang.) Kidney Jing produces Marrow Kidney Jing produces Marrow. Marrow produces bone marrow, the brain, and the spinal cord (Marrow in TCM has no exact equivalent in Western Medicine). The Brain in TCM is called the "Sea of Marrow". Therefore if Kidney Jing is weak, brain may be undernourished, leading to poor memory/concentration, "empty" feeling in the head, dizziness, etc. Kidney Jing determines our Constitution Our protection from exterior pathogens depends largely on the strength of a type of Qi: the Defensive (Wei) Qi. However, the state of Kidney Essence also influences our strength and resistance. If the Essence is "wasted" or poorly stored, the person may have lowered immunity to exogenous pathogenic influences and constantly be ill with cold, influenza, allergies, etc. Essence and Qi are the material foundation for Shen (Mind). Hi! In neidan pre-natal is not pre-heaven. In fact pre-natal is post-heaven as it comes from "this side of creation". Pre-heaven is from the other side. I like the graph of Damo Mitchell about jing-chi-shen....but as he has shown in his book "white moon on the mountain peak" he does not know the methods for replenishing the yuan jing (the pre-heaven jing). the northern school with full teaching does this in meditation, in indian alchemical systems it happens only after further stages have been completed and they just preserve what they have and in the southern school they have moving forms for the refilling of yuan jing. best
  7. kundalini crisis, maybe

    Hi! You can contact them: http://kundalinicare.com they are an old lineage that works with people who have kundalini problems. I am not sure that you have that but could be. All the best
  8. Yijing and Prenatal (PreHeaven) Jing

    Yes that is pre-natal. I is a kind of karmic inheretance. clearing of it is not easy but very worth it. best
  9. Neidan vs Mantrayana

    There is pre-heaven jing and post heaven jing. Jing is stored chi so to say and it is also used for the creation of the physical body, hence it is used up in the production of cells and fuids and in providing chi. post-heaven is from this side of creation (food, air,etc.) pre-heaven is much more subtle and can only be perceived when ones perception is very refined. To replenish and work with the pre-heaven is the work of alchemical systems of which neidan is one. best
  10. Hi! No you can do it your own. I just felt it needed here. There are Lots of vids on YouTube and also several books available. Merry Xmas! :-)
  11. One of the essences of spirituality is that you have your joy within yourself but that it is clouded by our emotional and mental imprinting (you said you have no joy without yoga; you need something outside yourself to feel good).....so we need to release those imprintings and the joy will always be there. Your doing yoga is a form of spiritual bypassing. What you feel when you not do yoga is your imprinting, your karma etc (however you want to call it).....that is your true experience right now. Also things like "you are a loser because you have no girl friend" etc......you have a lot of clearing to do and you should stay away from things like meditating over the picture of a guru, cause guess what? You will become more aware of your stuff and not less. Kundalini will usually awaken naturally if one does not force it with certain techniques. I would suggest you work with one of the living inquiries fascilitators to release some of the negativity you carry and stop doing intense stuff like you did. When you clear you will find that you do not need anything to feel joy and peacefull and this work will lead over time to deeper and deeper states of awareness in a very balanced way. https://www.livinginquiries.com/ https://www.livinginquiries.com/facilitators/ All the best Michael
  12. Kaliyuga and chanting

    Quote: Yukteswar’s correction* brought the Yugas back into a rising and falling cycle that aligns with the cycle of the ages and with what we call The Great Year in the west, the approx. 25,000 year cycle of the precession of the equinoxes**. In this model, Kali is only 1,200 years long. We passed through the trough in 500 AD (the Dark Ages) and are now about 311 years into the second age, Dwapara Yuga, the bronze or energy age***. He summarizes the memes with 3 terms: (dates are for the current ascending cycle) Satya – Golden: (7700 – 12,500 AD ascending, then a similar period descending) Self realization, direct intuitive perception, consciousness Treta – Silver: (4100 – 7700 AD) Self-mastery, intuitive attunement, thought awareness Dwapara – Bronze: (1700 – 4100 AD (current)) (enlightened) Self-interest, awakened intellect (science), energy (flow, intuition) Kali – Iron: (500 – 1700AD ascending after a similar decent from 700 BC) Passive acceptance, dull-mindedness, matter awareness This period was more uncultured than now. But not before that.
  13. Is this MoPai?

    Hi Arramu! As far as i understand it: Mo pai is not a neidan system. The system in this book is very powerful but is a totally different tradition than neidan (and mopai as far as i understand it). All the best!
  14. Yijing and Prenatal (PreHeaven) Jing

    Hi! Cannot answer your question. But prenatal is not preheaven, prenatal is during pregnancy and before birth, pre-heaven is the energies before they become "corrupted" by this world and its duality. In Neidan (only in the schools that have the full transmission) there are very secret techniques that can replenish Yuan jing and Yuan chi (this is done by ming gong). All the best Michael
  15. LIberation has nothing to do with xing and ming or anything......it is beyond words, feelings and all energies (even the most subtle or highest ones).
  16. Where do I go from here?

    Hi shortstuff! IT IS best to Not View awakening AS a escape....IT can be used for it but with the Same devastating results AS in the unawake state. Everything that Happens to US is required....Not what we want....but required. IT IS Not about what Happens, but what the external Event is triggering within us (what words, pictures and Feelings). Therapy can be useful in the beginning as IT has a stabilizing effect....but IT does Not solve Things AS IT IS Not a disolving Work. What you need to learn is Not escapeing Your Experience but fully Meeting IT. To learn that I would suggest Reading Michael Browns the presence process ....but Not doing IT...and watching some of His vids. And Look into Scott Kilobys living inquries...but Same here ..do Not do them alone....Work with a living inquries fascilitator together to untangle that huge negativ Charge within....then the outer live will Change for the better and you will realize Life was never against you, but was Just trying to geht Your attention. All the best Michael
  17. London Bridge

    Good posts! And lets not forget the simple knowledge that most islamic terror attack deaths are other muslims. So they kill not for the wars the west brought unto the middle east, they kill all which they deem not real muslims. They have done that for a long time and only dictators were able to keep them in a kind of weird balance. Since the west has removed these dictators the middle east shows its ugly face.
  18. London Bridge

    the UK have a serious political correctness Problem. do you know the Rotherham scandal? Where 1400 Girls have been raped and the Police did nothing because they feared being called racist? Or that in certain parts of Citys the have sharia Courts? When conservative christians walk with crosses through muslim populated Areas and the muslims get aggressive then the Police Comes to take the christians away to prison, not the muslims who tried to hit them etc. Also there is a large muslim Population in London. best
  19. London Bridge

    I would say that Islam is in desperate Need of re-writing/Reformation. (as was christianity) But, as i wrote, the Reformers (which are only very few) have a really hard time. the earlier part of the Koran was the peaceful one, and the later was the aggressive one, but according to Islam, later is better, so they have a real Problem here. the bible is different in that the old Testament is also very cruel, but the new one is very peaceful. When we see how Islam has crippled the middle east in every aspect of Society and we see that Happening in every Country which turns to Islam (right now we see that Indonesia becomes more and more radical) the only way is a Reformation, but as Long as most muslims do not Support that it will be very hard.
  20. Hi Spotless! Since you have so much openings and mergings i have a question: has you physical body de-aged or rejuvanated(at least a little)? Just ask because one sometimes hears that one will look much younger and live much longer when the energy system is that developed. best
  21. London Bridge

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2308529/half-british-muslims-would-not-report-is-supporters/ I am a sick of this terrorism. europe was really safe until a few years ago and now this (besides the spikes in rapes etc.) I have known a lot of muslims, most of which i was good friends. but when we talked deeper about certain topics it was clear that they have a very different worldview than us westerners. Yes, the west has done horrible things in the middle east and i oppose that. BUT muslim invasions have happened the last 1400 years. Many do not know that the first crusades happened actually to fight back the islamic invasion. We only have to look at islamic countries all over the world to see that they have very few in common with our worldview. And we have to look how hard islamic reformers are persecuted, they have to live with bodyguards 24/7. How can anyone think that these people come to the west and just leave their social programming behind? Muslims are allways the hardest to integrate population in every country that is a non-muslim country. and we here in europe and the west feel guilty for everything now (in sweden and in germany women felt guilty for going to the police after being brutally raped by muslims; or the rotherham scandal). And because of this mass guilt we give up all our values in the name of tolerance. Now on social media and the mainstream media they will tell us again that the real victims are muslims and that islamophobia is the real problem. I am sick of it! best
  22. Kundalini of the heart, the hridaya

    Have not watched the video just read was Edward has written. From my personal expierence and of those i know who had a real full kundalini awakening to say that " the kundalini awakens the chakras and moves from bottom to top" is over simplified and mostly wrong. How the kundalini awakens depends on the unique situation, there are several healthy flows possible. In my case it opened the heart and flowed into the head and then back down. What kundalini does is mostly a clearing and breaking down of the structure we experience as the individual self and a clearing of the whole energy system. there could be a reeinforcement but that makes the process very uncomfortable....because one has to surrender or the energy burns the system or it goes back to sleep (if one is lucky). Siddhis may awaken but do not have to. For a lot of people the spiritual heart awakens after the kundalini process is finished and the descent of the divine into form happens. best Michael
  23. Unplug from the Matrix

    What we see in women is our own unintegrated interal turmoil (in the emotional body). They are clear mirrors and reflect back our own unintegrated issues. Once we integrate our inner condition they will not have to reflect it back to us and the "battle of the sexes" disolves into harmony.
  24. Do these practices lead to Demonic Possession?

    You will not find a real answer to your problem because it is the thinking mind wanting to get rid of your fear. Integrate the fear by fully feeling it and the whole mental story will collapse. Fear is not a good teacher. best!
