Welcome to the forum! There's no such thing as a "demonic cultivator from a buddhist lineage"... He's probably into other stuff. But can you tell us more? So we can try to help.

Yep exactly, the reson is: suspicious behavior. Your first 3 posts were one in the mandatory "Welcome" section, then one criticizing Damo and Nathan, and one here defending this system. That's why I thought it was very weird, it seems like you only started posting to defend this system and criticize others. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yea I know the controversy regarding Damo's system and actually I wouldn't be his student, but you can't deny he gives great information in his books, he may not have reached a high level himself but we can learn a lot from the theory with him. About Nathan, I never heard anything bad about him, but honestly I wouldn't choose him to be my teacher either, I prefer Rudi, I looket at both and Rudi seems to be what I would look for if I decided to learn it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyways, we can't deny that Damo and Nathan show up on social media(Instagram, Youtube, etc..), they give some teachings for free and even if being seen online doesn't mean that they are the real deal, they at least are there, we know what they teach and what to expect after becoming his students and we can discuss and talk about them to see if there are better or different options for learning something similar. The problem with these guys(ancientmasters) is that they create a website, make absurd claims about what they can do and how they are the only ones who know the path, charge some very significant amount of money for it, make it like a secret order where everything is hidden and you only know what to expect after you PAY for it. So yes, it's weird that you make only 3 posts, one to criticize well-known teachers around here and one to promote a secret order no one knows about. And I'm not saying that ancientmasters don't teach anything useful, they can really be teaching something and be a system for you to develop in the internal arts, but I think that what they teach you can find online for free or way cheaper with other masters, there are other systems online where you know they can get you far enough, without all of this secrecy. But I also need to accept that there is the possibility of you really being one of his stundents and don't like the other masters and decided to post everything at the same time after years of creating your account. I can't prove that you're wrong, I'm just saying that it was very suspicious. AND I think it's funny to mention that if I had the money to spare I would definitely pay for it just to see where it goes and to see if these guys know what they are talking about, because even if I come here and criticize I can't deny the possibility of these guys really having some kind of knowledge, I don't believe that they are the only ones who know the path but I would find it interesting to join just to get their point in all of this, I admit that it's hard to criticize something, anything, without "experimenting" it first. Where I live it's over 5 times the original price hahaha so I probably will never try it, but I will be here to see if Durian Tree decides to try it.

omg I think I had vodka instead of water today hahahaha The link didn't show up the first time I saw your reply, I also was asking myself "oh why you didn't post the link if you found it" next mistake today and I delete my account

lmao, I searched in the "Posts" section, but it was on the "TOPICS" section, well nevermind, my bad, I'll delete my post then.

Do you mean like Zi Fa Gong(spontaneous movements)? Or just contemplate as these sensations arise and don't judge?

I asked something very similar some weeks ago, and the replies relied on the power of forgiveness and loving-kindness towards the person who hurt you and I can say it really works.

You have the old level one, the same as I do. Now the new Level 1 is the Five Elements Qigong. What Nibowaka said above is 100% correct. But the old one is just as good as the new one. I've seen somewhere a guy saying this. Just choose one sequence and do it, one way or another you will be healing yourself, the new movements are just easier but that doesn't mean they are better, Chunyi says this because he needs to sell his product... Unfortunately SFQ became a big online store, too many marketing strategies over there... But the Qigong is great and Master Lin is the real deal, so even if it became a "selling machine" the method is good and I think that is what matters, the only bad part about this approach is that now they look like those Qigong scams and some people are afraid of trying it.

Demons isn't the right word here. Fight isn't the right word either. In chod, the practitioner goes to a place that creates the feeling of fear and then upon starting the practice the spirits(not demons) will come to him. Why do they come to him? Because this is the goal of the practice, so with the right method the practitioner calls them and they come. To fight? No, the practitioner just offers his body to these spirits in a direct way to overcome fear(ego) and to reach enlightnment. The more fear you feel from these sentient beings, the more ego you have, so by overcoming it and offering your body as an act of compassion, you will be using a direct method to dissolve your ego. No one fights, it's 100% an act of compassion. Yes you're right, this is one of the most advanced tantra practices and can only be done after receiving initiation from a qualified guru. Don't worry, you didn't offend me at all, I asked because I was just curious to understand why you were using these terms to refer to buddhist practices Buddhism is very clear in it's goal "May all beings be free from suffering and the root of suffering", so anything outside of this is not buddhism anymore, they can call themselves buddhists but if they are doing "dark" practices which feeds their ego with the intention to destroy someone, then logically it's not buddhism anymore because it goes against buddhist principles. But I'm not sure if "chthonic rites" is the right term for it. English is not my native language so myabe I'm getting lost in translation here, but I searched for it and it says that these "chthonic rites" often requires sacrifices and such things so it's wrong there are no sacrifices. But as I said, maybe you mean something else and I didn't get the right translation hahaha

This is very interesting, thanks for sharing the source!

why do you say that these monks are doing "dark practices"? There is no such thing as "darker tibetan buddhist rituals". They don't use magick either. Vajrayana is Tantric Buddhism, they worshipp their deities and these have some benefits for their lives(material and spiritual benefits), I wouldn't call it magick,but I understand your point if you meant it in that way. Even Chod practices which may seem "darker" at first, have the goal to destroy the ego and reach enlightnment. Everything they do is to benefit all sentient beings. They are doing no harm or working with "negative energy".

I only believe in the tibetan vajrayana buddhists😁

I do believe in wei qi but I believe in it in a different way, to me wei qi is something you build over time with disciplined qigong practice, not something you switch a button and expand your wei qi for this or that situation. Can you be more specific on how to use kundalini for attack and defence? I understand kundalini as an energy coiled in the base of our spine and at the certain time after certain practices it ascends to the top of the head and that's it,I never heard of ways to use it for such purposes. I don't believe in none of this, nothing they do works, and if it "works", they are just doing harm to themselves and wasting their time. Run from him.. He went crazy, just like many others who follows this path. I don't believe in none of this. Black magic and these "necromancers", it just don't work. BUT these are my views and my beliefs, just giving my opinion

Oh I love coins! If ya know what I mean (nickel) Welcome!

you are very suspicious posting this my friend...
