Very short but insightful interview:

Go to this site to learn more breathing exercises: http://www.anmolmehta.com

 

with love to my sisters.

Pranayama is not for everyone. It's too Yang and drawing chi in the head all the time is a no-no thing. You need to circulate it in the major meridians (ren mai & du mai) and store it in the lower tantien (hara) to avoid mental problems.

Specific movement in Neijia, visualization (a bit), relaxation and breathing in static Qigong.

I will be standing in Wuji for 20 years on top of a mountain. When I return I will show you my power and will charge you $10,000 USD (for something you can achieve by yourselves anyway, ) to be as powerful as I am.

LOL!

Doing static work all the time is not healthy. Moving meditation and a martial art like Taiji is a must if you want to enjoy good health from years to come.

Btw, Taiji is the highest martial art of all. Very hard to master that's why other Neijia arts like Bagua are helpful because they develop core as well as tendon strength.

Good luck!

Google up for osmosis and see what you come up with.

Same principle.

The offer a cheap service in here (just googled):

http://www.samadhihermitage.org/cave.shtml

More hardcore would be going to your own cave every weekend. If you live in an area that hosts mountains, explore a bit the area and see if you can locate one.

In Eastern Tibet they got this:

Very nice!

Even the healthiest food you can imagine becomes poison (you don't feel the need to eat) when you are becoming very Yin and doing high energetic food. Remember the classics: Live on chi and dew. Or Buddha's advice of one meal a day.

It happened to me and I had to reduce seated meditation. I found very difficult to keep up a full-time job quitting food. It was impractical and impossible.

I dunno the whole things becomes very complicated when doing intensive meditation. I see know why practitioners become renunciates or those who seek refuge in the mountains away from excess Yang.

For those who stay a diet rich in fruit and vegies is a must, preferably the organic type higher in earth's own qi.

It's a bit off-topic but nevertheless very nice to watch:

I hope you like it.

Yes that little tale explains what Buddhism is all about: we all live in an eternal dream. Didn't Zhuangzhi discuss something similar?

Thanks for linking it here.

I'm getting the impression this thread is dying off and that concerns me.

Yes it will die,disappear and fall into oblivion, like you and me, the rest of the members of this forum and the entire website. Others will come one day and start all over again. The cycle never ends. Samsara.

Yes siddhis are a result of moral development and a progression in the spiritual path product of karma, daily meditation and long periods of seclusion away from society's demands.

I took the example of Jesus (without entering in the controversy whether he existed or not) and this clip belonging to the great film The Last Temptation of Christ:

Namo Amitabha Buddha

The similarities are striking even down to sharing the same Vedic model of the universe. There is a story about Dudjom Rinpoche who on being asked what the difference was between Hindu and Buddhist tantra replied 'Bodichitta'.

Yes, amongst the concept of anicca (impermanence), dukkha (unsatisfactoriness) and anatta (non-self), but the most essential one is that there is no continuum of awareness; hence an eternal immutable soul or Atman as Hinduism proclaims.

There is no doubt about that due to blasting effect of anicca on anything contained within Samsara.

Let's put it this way. How many hours have you sat in full-lotus TODAY?!?

 

I don't keep track anymore. On a good day I have 20 mutual climaxes with females -- we both have internal climaxes after I use my pineal gland to shoot electromagnetic energy into them while the full-lotus sucks up their electrochemical energy.

 

20 climaxes means I don't get hungry if I don't eat. Last summer I went 3 days with no food and no hunger -- just ecstasy.

 

That's religion to me.

 

The best I went was 8 days on only HALF a glass of water. The electromagnetic fields were so strong I healed my mom so she didn't need surgical stockings, I freaked my friends out, I pulled this old lady's spirit out of her head by accident, I saw dead spirits coming to hear Master chunyi Lin during his qi-emitting lecture, when I sat in full-lotus the room kept spinning around me.

 

That's when I stopped practicing and my channels closed up a bit but then Master Chunyi Lin stuck his finger to my forehead and this magnetic bliss burned up my pineal gland making it permanently magnetized with bliss.

 

From 11 to 1 at noon and at midnight the third eye automatically opens up everyday. But I just sit in full-lotus and have about 10 internal climaxes a day. At the full-moon the energy is strongest 3 days before and after and especially strong at the equinox full moons.

 

Precognition, telepathy, telekinesis, psychic healing and euphoria. These can all be the norm just by practicing:

Hi,

Let me chime in.

Yes chi is very powerful when nourished and has a direct effect in our spirit. I experience same stuff, especially giving up food. However I also work full-time (my job not being exactly a librarian) and I need food to carry on otherwise I wouldn't be able to cope with it. I also have to drive near an hour to go to work and traffic is a bitch most of the time.

Really I am getting tired of the whole thing and willing to become a wandering monk in China and go through cave dwelling practice. Maybe one day. Who knows.

Regards.

Mods lock this up, please.

I offer myself as a Mod

It's pointless arguing over and over the same old thing: This method is better than yours.

They are all good.

All rivers end up in the sea the only difference is that some have more turns than others.

Regards.

I think you should read this excellent book:

Qigong Empowerment: A Guide to Medical, Taoist, Buddhist, Wushu Energy Cultivation. Liang, S.Y., Wu, W.C. & Breiter-Wu, D. (1997)

They call it the "Qigong Bible."

It is a question that has been lingering in my mind for a long time and addressed in another forum. Different opinions were given but no consensus was reached. Maybe it will happen in here.

Ignorance, delusion, karma, demonic influence in our planet ( ), dark side of Tao?

Why a rotten apple spoils the whole basket and not vice versa? That is why a good apple will never cure a whole basket of rotten apples?

What is the ultimate reason?

Personally, it is something beyond my comprehension.

Like a big flash of light while meditating and with a gentle sound that is difficult to describe. That is why I used the term "explosion."

I hope this description helps.

Regards.

It happened to me yesterday for first time after reading this experience by another practitioner in another spiritual forum. However I lost that link and can't remember what was discussed in there.

My guess is that is related to crown chakra stimulation, either that or removal of a latent mind blockages.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Forget about silly Siddhis.

Cultivate the Dharma, morality, selfless help to other human beings and control your minds. One who is able of conquering their own mind is the greatest warrior.

If you achieve this you will have taken a closer step to enlightenment.

Regards.
