>>42079839Bro next time let me post the next one , I was planning to add extra sources and organise it on difficulty, I will still post the ones I was planning to add on here, I will just do it later

>>42079870Sure, no problem, I waited til it got to 300 and figured no one was doing it. Please post what you were planning to, and post next OP before we hit 300 or I’ll beat you to it again and just repaste :-)
As I posted in the last thread:Either work out of Satanta Gamana’s Kundalini and Krya Yoga Exposed books or read Secret of the Golden Flower with J.J. Semple’s explanations of “turning the light around” and the “backwards flow method”. Those are truly the fastest methods which will not mess you up. Semen retention will get you there so much faster as it is the fuel for subtle body to awaken kundalini.AVOID any posts that mention exercises involving guiding the kundalini or visualizing it or combining it with other energies. Following steps like those is a spell on the mental plane and can invite demons in when they are made up exercises by people with bad intentions. I am sealing this and all future cultivation threads from energetic attacks in that manner so even if they post you their energies cannot harm you. If you truly want it I can send energy transmissions as much as your and my karmas will allow. From there the rest is up to you. You CAN achieve it in one lifetime if you practice in earnest. Get either of those books and practice out of them. I also mentioned the Third Eye book by Samuel Sagan. Those are all legit.
>>42079839>>What is this energy you speak of?>star-fire, soul, ka, ichor, inua, sila, manetuwak, oloddumare, qi, Tao, ki, aether, orgone, archeus, etheric energy, vital life-essence,prana, chi, mana, vital energy, Vril, life force and quintessence.OP. I applaud intent but please do investigate the stuff you want to make a thread about before you do. Not only these are _not_ various terms for the same thing nor interchangeable, some of this stuff is not any "energy" at all, like Tao. Some of this is the same thing - chi and qi are different spellings of the same motive force. Vril is kinda shit based on a book that was all but proven to be a work of fiction, but new age took it for a spin.I worry a bit about it if you mix things up like this.
)))Viral Christ Consciousness(((
>>42080201Not OP, but once I've experienced, Yang / Shen / Shiva a kind of kundalini force that is born from the left hand and exist only in the upper body, and I'm not gonna lie it was pleasant but that energy will dissipate after weeks if not used through Qigong or Neigong.
>>42079807>>42079676You are both wrong. this is Ashwini Mudra. Also known as Horse Seal. this is a posture that reflects the bowel movements of a horse. This also exercises the first gate of the Chakra's. the gate of fear. this is the root chakra that the first one. it actually reverses homosexual practices. being that the act looses the rectal band and the individual loses control of their bowels. this also does apply to women as well. everyone has an asshole. I am not going to sugar coat it, if you have a loose asshole. then you cannot travel up to the higher chakras. you got to protect your gate. you got to protect your chakra. what you can also do during Ashwini Mudra is prayer to Lord Ganesh. He is the remover of obstacles. as well as being the one that governs the root chakra. his prayer for protection and releasing fear of the root chakra, is Om Gam Ganapataye Namah. The goal with Chakra's is to live in your higher chakras. so if you are dealing with issues of your first chakra. then you cannot move up to your second chakra. which is the one that is most useful for kundalini yoga.
>>42079839>THAT'S ALOTTA DAO
just cultivated
>>42081111Quads of based
>>42079839>in order to cultivate energy you now lack you need to spend hours every day training for a decade which is just a beginner stage>oh and if your diet and sleep is shit and you have stress in life your progress will be even slowerHow does anyone progress at all? I just don't have the energy for it because of depression.
>>42081793Don’t be a lazy bastard, almost all self help practices require extensive periods of time to see progress.Gym: the most similar- you need to go gym regularly and consecutively, you need to change sets and practices depending in yourself, you need to mange your diet, you need to make sure your track your lifestyle, etc.> I just don't have the energy for it because of depression.Then cultivate the energy, do some qigong mediative breathing you will find results pretty quick
>>42080816Sure, some "energies" (more often it's qualities more so than energies but let's no split the hair) exist under different names in different traditions, but all that bunch OP mentioned is not interchangeable, and again, some of it is completely different stuff. In fact, sometimes practicing two different traditions handling such stuff, with different cosmology and whatnot can mess you up royally. And we're not talking "headache and ominous feeling", we're talking literal internal organs shutdowns and threat to one's own life.I understand if OP would just want a thread talking about all forms of qualities used in all practices of energy work but implying it's all the same shit can mislead people into trouble.
>>42080816Dunno about other traditions but in eastern Chinese arts, shen isn't "born in the left hand" and is not kundalini force naturally travelling up your spine as per kundalini yoga practices but one residing in area of your head, the seat of the spirit, which shen is to represent at the same time being expression and conduit of your will and attention, a quality working wherever you'll direct them.Don't mix stuff up like OP did, it will create issues.
>>42081793>How does anyone progress at all? I just don't have the energy for it because of depression.Most don't. That's why even in circles of people interested in such things, you only hear of someone achieving something sporadically and usually it's at best some unreliable, minor thing and usually - outright bullshit.If climbing the heights of spiritual and energetic development would be an easy and common thing, we'd live in a xianxia novel.

>>42082322>And we're not talking "headache and ominous feeling", we're talking literal internal organs shutdowns and threat to one's own life.most of these effects come from either purely material causes and genetics. A small percentage comes from spiritual forces who can subtly cause vasoconstriction or nerve pulses in the same way that a nightmare can spook you while asleep. These subtle influences can create mysterious and compounding health issues if you cannot train having a thick skin and a degree of indifference.
>>42081793you need to get to the gym and exercisemaking good advancements spiritually, you need to have some decent level of healthand as far as meditation goes, find 5-10 minutes 3-4x a day and then get as long of a session as you can before bed
Why do you guys idolize people that take tai chi which is suppose to help exercise develop focus and breathwork for the body and prepare it for meditation and pretend like its a secret fighting style?You know using Tai Chi for self defense is not effective self defense.its almost like its suppose to serve some other purposes.............Like if you want to learn a MMA, BJJ, Kickboxing, Wrestling, ect.To me I wouldn't want this kind of a teacher. because I see through it. its stupid. like if you want to improve your meditations, do tai chi. if you want to learn how to throw fists. something else. I probably wouldn't take their advice on any meditations anyways either. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3KSz1A7WO4
>>42082360>you only hear of someone achieving something sporadically and usually it's at best unreliablereliable only comes when the conditions are that well arrangedone cannot just make meditative happenings arise, one may only arrange the conditionsthat is why a rote approach that trains diligently is a crucial componentthen again if one's method or focus us subpar, forget about anything substantial taking placebut if diligently applied, the spark will comecontinued diligence will see it return more oftenuntil it comes every dayI can tell the thread this for a fact because these are my direct experiences
>>42082713this is a dumb video where the kid overwhelms a taiji guy that wasnt going to use a technique that would cause serious harm(watching it, one can question just how capable of a martial artist the taiji guy is to begin with, that kid should have been flying in the air or on his ass within the first 3 touches...but like the kid said, he didnt even use any real technique and just bum rushed the taiji guy.)the good taiji guys I know dont just know taiji and they will fuck practically anyone up, its impossible to get them off their root and once you close, they do not hesitate
>>42082717And your direct experiences are what?Tell me of your directed energy powers.
>>42082713I mean, when they were teaching me taiji, they would explain how to harm an opponent with literally every maneuver that exists in the form, on purposeif one's taiji teachers are not doing this then they're not really teaching anything resembling complete taijiat least not proper chenreminder that the yang form is basically chen minus all the difficult maneuvers, it was created because an emperor wanted to practice it and couldnt keep up with the original form
>>42079839>hates the Shaolin Why?Shaolins are chill, just like him.
>>42082758I've been teaching yall how to manifest the spiritual light on a regular basis for a while nowthat's the most important thing, as it is the beginning stages of the enlightenment processit is very much a matter of conditioningI mostly dont bother to express energythings these days, as that comes with a cost (at least until you reach some significantly later stages in the process)once I had confirmation from a handful of people that were cultivated enough to tell there was something to me expressing some energy, I was satisfied with this and mostly did not bother afterwardintent is a big part of this, so mostly I give subtle heal commands here and there where opportunity presents itself these days, doing these things too often is dumb and a detriment to the practitioner
>>42082798shaolin only exists in a meme version after the cultural revolutionog shaolin is long gone and isnt coming back
Why can’t any of you agree on a single thing on this topic?
>>42082831because the topic is so broadthere isnt good differentiation between practicesit should really begin with foundational matters before proceeding to more potent things that require the foundational aspects to be relatively completedI was like op when I first discovered all this stuff over 25 years ago, tooyipee, kid in a candy storeexcept I spent 3 years on the foundational stuff first, and most everything I'm teaching yous here now is from that beginninganyone that skips this important part is putting a glass ceiling on their progress
>>42082739>>42082774I'm just saying i don't buy the methodology. you sit down to meditate, your body hurts, you work on that. how do you work on that? you do exercises. like Yoga, or Tai Chi, or Qigong.it just doesn't make sense because the ends don't justify the means to take something that is not a martial art for self defense and try to make it into that when in reality the exercises are for another purposeits stupid. how are you fooled by this?
Can I use energy cultivation to bring back my foreskin?
The Tao that can be read is not the Tao. The Tao that can be spoken is not the Tao. The Tao that can be imitated is not the Tao. The Tao is you, the Tao is me. Only you can be you, only I can be me. Be you, not a meme.
>>42082831>cultivation thread>its just some retard haphazardly mixing 50 systemslmaoI expected better from /x/
>>42082861>to take something that is not a martial art for self defense and try to make it into thatsorry my guy you are simply ignorant of the history here>you sit down to meditate, your body hurts, you work on that. how do you work on that? you do exercises. like Yoga, or Tai Chi, or Qigongwhat are you even trying to say here? it doesnt even really relate to the taiji questionbody maintenance is a requirement for meditative progress
>>42082861most anything you look up on taiji's history states>originally a rigorous combat art
>>42082514No. Not what I am talking about. It's not just genetics and purely material causes, once you go far enough in certain traditions, like neidan, you're literally messing with the flow of vital energy and function of your internal organs. Practicing wrong, and/or multiple different practices from different traditions that aren't compatible may fuck you up royally.I recall good comparison of that to functioning of electric board/circuit. At the very beginning you only adjust current etc slightly, in miniscule way so your device will handle it okay, but once you go far enough to really plug it in, you don't just connect the power willy-nilly to random parts of the board or you risk frying it.
>>42082966Not just cultivation, energy work in general and it seems so anons do warn others against mixing stuff up so it's not that bad.
>>42082713Taichiquan has a funny history. In its beginning it was a fighting style, seemingly mild and soft, but actually quite brutal, built around damaging important organs and disabling limbs, VERY different from the stuff that it is today, which indeed became an exercise set for old people.It's to be expected, it's already hard to make a martial art be practical without seriously using it in combat scenario. With stuff like taichi it was double as bad because even sparring didn't cover it since you had to seriously practice mauling the opponent (and in the past, I guess a minor noble training such could simply get himself some peasants to kill) so the whole thing is less than a shadow of its former self and some people mix up its outdated use with the modern thing.
>>42083201>It's not just genetics and purely material causes, once you go far enough in certain traditions, like neidan, you're literally messing with the flow of vital energy and function of your internal organs. Practicing wrong, and/or multiple different practices from different traditions that aren't compatible may fuck you up royally.this is correct, thick skin isnt going to prevent things like magically arising turbo cancerpeople that protest at the mention of these things are inexperienced on these matters
>>42083232>but actually quite brutal, built around damaging important organs and disabling limbsthis is a very important point that people often missthere are some key taiji fundamentals that enhance MMA very wellbut taiji is not a MMA where you have a host of maneuvers that are outlawedsome shit when seriously applied quite literally maims or kills, which isnt sport MMA compatiblethe taiji guy in that video with the MMA kid should have engaged within the first 2-3 fists by the MMA guy but it probably would have resulted in broken bones...hesitate for too long and there you are getting your ass beaten in a bad spot
>>42082239Found this guy on YouTube, Steve Gray, Zhan Zhuang. I like his videos. https://youtube.com/watch?v=5W9cEfZi4XUDamo Mitchell had an old video available publicly on “building the bucket” (lower Dan tian) which is now gone. I’ve read the better part of three books in the last few days and come across tons of comments to the effect of: “how do I actually build the lower dan tian? I have been trying for years” If anyone has legitimate resources to point the way toward an answer, I would appreciate it. Considering the Nathan Brine coursework, but it is a little expensive for me to jump into immediately without first doing my diligence with freely available material. Though I am considering it strongly. Have much work to do with foundation of stillness on top of that. Hope yall are well.
>>42082943Meowmin
>>42083948steve was a good guy, rip>If anyone has legitimate resources to point the way toward an answer, I would appreciate it.dont forget that ohm's law appliesreduce r and A autorisesthis is why master the breath, increase efficiency, reduce the arising neurological potentials from sense processing, habituate very thoroughlyas you know the chi flows where the yi goesso keep your awareness focused there at the dantienthis + mastering breathwork & stillness are the easy missing keys that many often underappreciateits good to see another buddy of mine make huge gains, doubly so because he told me he should have put more work into this fundamental aspect when he began and its become a larger focus recently, commensurate with those gains.

>>42082966Wtf do you want op to do, this is a general about cultivation as a whole,if he wanted to he could of done something like /qgg/ qigong general or /kg/ kundalini generalbut he chose to do the subject as a wholeseriously you're a retard
>>42080825>I am not going to sugar coat it, if you have a loose asshole. then you cannot travel up to the higher chakrasany reason for this,(fyi im not a faggot im just curious)
>>42084188if your floor is compromised then it will not be able to handle the energythe one who taught me k-not-k cautioned against this specificallyoverdo it bad enough and the prostate will hemorrhage and begin to orgasm uncontrollablyuntil you begin to cum bloodeventually at some point it gives you a heart attack
>>42084213Based, this is how I will go out.
>>42084240funny, but it wont be accompanied by arousal or anything resembling what you would consider a normal orgasm and certainly not pleasurable
>>42084272so would you recommend me to do Kegels to tighten it.also what is some stuff a beginner should do in the start of his Kundalini journey?
>>42082823>I've been teaching yall how to manifest the spiritual light on a regular basis for a while nowAnons who claim to teach stuff really need some sort of pastebin or whatnot to link folks to. For example, I missed that spiritual light and want to know not merely how to manifest it but what it is and how it impacts one's development.
>>42084292if you are a coomer then the #1 thing you need to do is stop that shit, you are wasting your resources like madif you dont want to stop being a coomer then there's nothing that's going to help you aside from hopefully your next lifetime you dont get exposed to porn at a young age and deeply integrate this harmful deviationkegels arent necessary because you should be including the pelvic floor, anal sphincter, and the muscles that stop the flow of piss in your breathingthis was the old "embarrassing secret" of cultivationalso dont aspire to kundalini right off the batlearn stillness and master anapanasati before going and checking out all the other practices that are gonna require mastery of it in order to be maximally effective
What's that energy when you think of something you want to do however your body is strongly against it however if you do it you meet friends, acquaintances or accomplish something. Example: I wanted going to gas station but the energy was pulling me back home and was kind of blocking me to go there so I pushed through and met there old friend who I have not seen for months. Or for example I wanted tidy around my business but again the energy was strongly against it as if block and when I pushed through my uncle stop by and helped me again I haven't seen him for long time.What's this all about
>>42084322>if you are a coomer then the #1 thing you need to do is stop that shit, you are wasting your resources like mad>if you dont want to stop being a coomer then there's nothing that's going to help you aside from hopefully your next lifetime you dont get exposed to porn at a young age and deeply integrate this harmful deviationdw i have decided yesterday that i will become a brahmacharya today, i will try my best (is there any facts about semen retention which are interesting i would like to know, thanks in advance)>you should be including the pelvic floor, anal sphincter, and the muscles that stop the flow of piss in your breathingcan you expand on this please as im not sure what you mean>learn stillness and master anapanasati before going and checking out all the other practices that are gonna require mastery of it in order to be maximally effectivealright i will do
>>42084316the spiritual light's manifestation is literally a prerequisite to achieving enlightenmentfrom the things I've read, it would be easy to conflate this arising of the spiritual light with akshual enlightenmentbut having had the experiences myself and understanding what's required to make it manifest, I can promptly tell everyone no this is absolutely not enlightenment, just the precursors thereof.in retrospect I didnt need to look elsewhere, for if this is carried forth far enough then it becomes a sort of mahamudra practice>what it isa signpost that comes with massive efficienciestime does not progress with the light is manifest,it is like a wonderful sparkly glowy energy bath that your body winds up craving towards the end of each dayachieving this also has a side effect of making short sessions highly restorative alsoyou've got to be very diligent to make it manifest every day, thoughbut be diligent and it comes like clockwork, you just have to learn to catch its arising and keep it manifested,for even little perturbations in the midbrain will consume the source fuel that the light depends upon for its arising and it will be gone in the snap of a fingerthis is why any thought or mental activity is incompatible with this processthis is very importantthe thinking mind consumes that which must build in order for the light to arisethese things were surprising af to me when they began to happen, I hadnt read of it and it arose naturally out of refinement of breath & awarenessalmost leaped from my seat and yelled, the first timeits not going to manifest when you're still tuning the breath thoughyou have to reach the point where its just a game of keeping the awareness fixed
>>42084121(You)
>>42084161Thanks, forgot to link to the previous thread in the Op I hastily copied from the last thread: >>42024361anyone can copy paste past resources like this poster here? Will reply with most handsome mallards.
>>42084341>(is there any facts about semen retention which are interesting i would like to know, thanks in advance)as I taught /srg/, there are efferent nerves attached to the testes and sex organsthis necessarily means that lustful thoughts, images, sounds, all become neurological commands to produce sex fluidsfluids which are made from the cream of the crop of your body's resourcesthe base materials also which form the sinews, skin, hair (with the prevalence of porn, is it any wonder its a common hair style to shave ya head these days)it is literally your healing factorbut this also necessarily means that the man with a clean mind will never have blue ballsredirect those thoughts immediately into something constructive, it doesnt matter what so long as its constructive>can you expand on this please as im not sure what you meanyou're aware you can contract the anal sphincter and stop the flow of piss with certain muscles, right?these are the components of inhale: diaphragm contracts, perineum and abdomen relaxexhale: modulate the timing so that the gentle contraction of the perineum, anus, pissmuscles proceeds smoothly for the entire exhaleroll inhales and exhales seamlessly into one anotherdo not use the airways to move the air in them, let the guts move the air, the airways always remain passiveit is important to treat the perineum gently - lift, not clenchits written you can give yourself hemorrhoids from clenching in this waylook at the way a bee breathesyou want to breathe in such a manner so as to eliminate all turbulence from the airflow, then there's no stimulation of the olfactory nervewhen you cant detect your breathing, you're well on your way to the great stillness
>>42084341>any facts about semen retention which are interesting i would like to knowalso, my teachers have said just be normalthis means dont be neurotic about itthis means dont overdo it and abuse yourselfit doesnt mean celibacy is a strict hard and fast requirementthis is more important than going 500 days "nofap"if the matter isnt solved at the mind level, it will never be mastered at the physical level
Just a bunch of nerds arguing over imaginary shit.
>>42079839>star-fire, soul, ka, ichor, inua, sila, manetuwak, oloddumare, qi, Tao, ki, aether, orgone, archeus, etheric energy, vital life-essence,prana, chi, mana, vital energy, Vril, life force and quintessenceYou mixed up different things here. If you pretend the truth to be what you want it to be because you know that, instead of what it is but you don't know, you will be deluded forever and will get nowhere.
>>42084359So, step by step guide how to do that. And what about other stuff? I'll be honest, so many of these achievements and experiences are very subjective. I'd like to know how to do something that can be objectively experienced, by the third parties, to prove myself there's something to it and I am not just deluding myself.
>>42084426"As one opens the door with a key, so the yogi should open the gate to liberation with the kundalini. The great goddess sleeps, closing with her mouth,, the opening through which one can ascend to the brahrnarandhra... to that place where there is neither pain nor suffering. The kundalini sleeps above the kanda... she gives liberation to the yogi and bondage to the fool. He who knows kundalini, knows yoga. The kundalini, it is said, is coiled like a serpent- He who can induce her to move is liberated." Hatha Yoga Pradipika 105-111 With our present limited state of consciousness, bound by sense experiences which become dull and monotonous through endless repetition, and unable to break out of our tensions, problems and anxieties, modern man is facing both a material and spiritual crisis. This crisis is a two-edged sword, Kundalini both binds and liberates. On the one hand it is 'bad', for it creates anxiety and depression and has precipitated a plague of psychosomatic disease and suffering unparalleled in former times. On the other hand, it is 'good', a blessing in disguise which is forcing us to change and grow, to evolve ourselves at individual and social levels.We are witnessing a tremendous upsurge of interest in yoga, meditation and spiritual values. There has been a revival of the yogic lifestyle and knowledge. Yoga and its related sciences are now recognized as valuable tools within the healing professions and have added tremendous depth and height, a new dimension to psychology and philosophy. Scientists have been inspired to probe deeper into the mysteries of yoga, to investigate the means by which it works and to make the teachings of the ancient rishis and yogis more readily understood and expressed in modern scientific terminology. We are seeing that science is not actually discovering anything new but is substantiating the ancient knowledge of the yogis.
>>42084485Scientific investigation into yoga and the allied sciences has made this knowledge more accessible by incorporating it into a whole new set of therapeutic techniques and new methods to develop our potential, for example, biofeedback, autogenic training, mind control techniques, psychic healing, and a myriad of other similar processes. New branches of medicine have come into being, and the recognition of mind, begun by Freud in the early part of this century, has finally filtered down into common acceptance. Stress medicine and psychosomatic medicine are examples of our deeper understanding of this interaction of energy, mind and body, an understanding developed through our rediscovery of yoga.In an effort to penetrate the mysteries of prana shakti, the physical side of psychic energy, and chitta, the mental side of psychic energy, a few respected and eminent pioneers, honoring the rigorous demands of the scientific method, have accumulated a solid core of evidence which explains in scientific terms the phenomenon of psychic energy and validates the teachings of yogis. Science has substantiated the yogic knowledge that a subtle energy exists which is body-based and has both physical and psychic properties. This energy, which powers our awareness and transforms and expands our conscious dimensions, is not just a myth or idea; it is not a metaphysical concept, but a fact. Kundalini is defined as the ultimate, most intense form of this energy, which lies dormant within each and every one of us. Phenomena such as telepathy, psychic healing, psychokinesis (the moving of matter by mind power), dowsing, telegnosis (psychic reading of history and association of objects), and other paranormal events, are receiving serious attention from the more pioneering members of the international science community as a means of understanding the relationship of energy and consciousness.
>>42084409This, holy fuck this. Especially given how twisted /srg/ got. What was meant to be an interesting tidbit about moderation and healthy living became something like dogmatic cult meeting Alcoholics Anonymous, with deeply delusional, questionable folks staking their whole spiritual development and even identity on whether they played with their dicks or not.
>>42084490Hard-headed scientists in the USA, UK, Germany, Holland, Scandinavia and Australia, are taking the lead from the scientists of the Soviet Union, many of whom are financed by their governments. Called bioelectronics or paraphysics in some circles, this field of study is generally known as parapsychology.In Czechoslovakia it is known as psychotronics, and one of the leading Czech researchers in this field is Dr. Zdenek Rejdak, whose association with Swami Satyananda began in the early seventies when he stayed at the Bihar School of Yoga. Speaking in Japan at the fifth annual conference of the Internationa! Association for Religion and Parapsychology in 1976, Dr. Rejdak defined psychotrotiics, and therefore, the whole field of parapsychology as, “the science which, in an interdisciplinary fashion, studies the distant interactions between living organisms and their environment, internal and external, and the energetic processes underlying these manifestations in order to supplement and widen man’s understanding of the laws of nature.”Psychic energy Psychic energy has been found to affect a whole range of laboratory equipment, from voltmeters to Geiger counters to magnetometers. Yet this does not mean that psychic energy is electrical, magnetic or radioactive. Rather, it seems to both encompass and go beyond these properties. Most researchers agree with the Soviets who state that psychic energy may have its origin in electrical activity, but the nature of the energy is entirely different. However, yogis state that prana is the substratum of our material universe, interpenetrating and organizing all matter and being the common ground for all energy. They see prana from a different and higher perspective.
>>42084502It is also generally accepted by scientists that psychic energy, most widely known as bioenergy, is body-based and affects both the physical and mental spheres as indicated by yogis. It has also been measured as a force field surrounding the body up to a distance of twelve feet by Yale neuropsychiatrist, Dr. Leonard Ravitz. (1) This seems to support the yogic concept of the subtle pranic body which interpenetrates and is interdependent with the physical structure, motivating it to function.There is considerable support for this hypothesis, gathered from the monitoring of the physiological changes experienced by psychics during laboratory tests of paranormal events. For instance, as part of his usual experimental procedure, Dr. Grenady Sergeyev of the A.A. Utkomskii Physiological Institute (a Leningrad military lab.), took readings of the brain waves, heartbeat and pulse rates of Neyia Mikhailova during her numerous demonstrations of psychokinesis. (2) He found that while Mikhailova was causing objects to move without touching them, his instruments recorded a tremendous vibration throughout her body and its surrounding force field which pulsed in the direction of her gaze. Her heart and brain waves also pulsed in unison with this energy vibration, indicating that the energy Mikhailova used in her psychic feats is intimately connected with her whole body. Reports go on to state that:
>>42084514“After doing these tests, Mrs. Mikhailova was utterly exhausted. There was almost no pulse. She’d lost close to four pounds in half an hour. The EEG (brain wave pattern) showed intense emotional excitement. There was high blood sugar and the endocrine system was disturbed. The whole organism was weakened as if from a tremendous stress reaction. She had lost the sensation of taste, had pains in her arms and legs, couldn’t coordinate and felt dizzy.” (3) At one time, after making a seven hour film of her abilities, Mikhailova was temporarily blind. Other Soviet investigators have recorded changes in brain wave patterns which coincide with the reception of telepathic signals, and researchers in the USA have shown that the volume of blood in the body alters during telepathic interactions. This evidence leaves no doubt that psychic energy, or bioenergy, is from the body and is the same energy that activates every aspect of our metabolism, from the functioning of the glands, to the brain and heart. It is the power behind the emotions and the operation of the senses. At the same time, prana, though based on and affecting the physical structure and function, has a wider range of properties and is associated with clairvoyance, clairaudience and other forms of extrasensory perception. It has a mental or psychic component and it is both gross and subtle.
>>42084520Psychic energy can affect matter without any apparent physical intermediary or medium. There is some undetectable energy at work which we cannot measure though we can see its results. It can even be used in healing. Sister Dr. Justa Smith in America, has demonstrated that psychic energy affects enzymes. (4) She has found that trypsin, a digestive enzyme which is damaged and decreases activity when exposed to ultraviolet light, increases activity when exposed to a high intensity magnetic field. When a water damaged trypsin solution was held in the hands of a recognized psychic healer for 72 minutes, irypsin increased its activityR. Yaeger has shown that when a practitioner of kundalini yoga performed certain pranayama techniques and then sat next to an onion for 15 minutes with his hands in a fixed position, about two feet from the experimental plant, cell division, and therefore metabolic energy increased by 108%. (5) A control subject sitting in the same position, but without doing pranayama, had no effects on the plant.We have a clear evidence from these experiments that there is a new kind of psychic physiological energy that fits the description of prana and kundalini as set forth in the yogic texts and verbal traditions.
>>42084524ConclusionModern science has been able to ascertain that psychic energy is a real and physically-based phenomenon. Though it does not fall into the known categories of modern science, its effects can be experienced and recorded repeatedly. No one really doubts its existence. What it is and how it functions, its relationship to our body and mind and its potential use as an evolutionary tool require further research from scientists who will find guidelines in the perspectives and experiences of dedicated yogis. This research will soon be under way at Bihar School of Yoga where we intend to investigate these phenomena in all their varied aspects. Through this, we will be better able to understand the relationship of mind and body and this will have tremendous repercussions on studies in to psychosomatic medicine, psychology and other important fields. As we ourselves learn to appreciate that great joy and good health that come from developing and being sensitive to psychic energy, a large and forgotten area of our being, we will extend our possibilities, develop our innate potential and speed up our spiritual evolution.

>>42084462the only hard part is just being diligentyour best way to figure out how to breathe properly for this is to draw a warm bath, lay back in it so that the water goes against the eardrums, and you should be surprised at how much you sniff the air when you think you're just breathing normallythe water makes it really loud and apparentwhile there, learn how to breathe so that its perfectly silentthere you'll understand how not to sniff the air when you breathecarry this to seated meditation, use earplugs if they help while you train the breathyou need to train and habituate until you have programmed your autonomic systemspay attention! at every moment! this is important!the better you pay attention, the better your body remembers, the better the muscle memory gets programmedget 4, 5 sessions per day inthe early ones can be short, like 5-10-20 minbut get a long one of at least an hour at the end of the dayhabituation is the key to the rote applicationkeep the awareness in the gut until you get to the point where the light arises there and begins to radiate from your entire bodythen it becomes appropriate to move awareness to the midbrainkeep the awarenesskeep the awareness!its why I say once the breath is well mastered it becomes an awareness gamethe light literally arises from this awarenessthe great stillness comes where all phenomena drop awaythere arises a potent movement within the stillnesswhen this happens you're not too far offif it arises, and when it returns, are all dictated by your conditioningits literally that simple my brothathe difficulty lies in executing properly, frequently

I'm able to elaborate more if anyone wants, but I'm curious if anyone here has knowledge / experience with acupuncture. There's something called SAAT, i forget the first letter but it's Auricular Allergy Therapy,Basically you get tiny needles you leave in your ear for 3-4 weeks; there are academic papers showing it has proven effective in lessening symptoms of alpha gal / the meat allergy people get from ticks. I was considering using it for standard environmental allergies.

Reposting from the last cultivation thread since it got archivedI have a question for olfactoryanon. I've read your past messages and you said to refine breath by moving only the diaphragm, imagining a little guy pulling on it.When I try to do it, I feel suffocated and immediately gasp for air. Is this how it should be or do I need to do some preparatory exercises?I've read your stuff on the archive but it would be nice if you could write down a proper practice sequence/routine for beginners. Maybe make your own thread about it. I think it would help a lot of people.
How does one get into Reiki Healing
>>42087626Reiki healing is kinda like somewhat intermediate qigong just specialized for that one thing. However, to get there without shortcuts would be near impossible, so like how it is that most eastern energy cultivation traditions it requires master to oversee and adjust your progress over time for the sake of smooth sailing. Reiki supposedly depends on initiation by an accomplished master to allow you to do any healing. Presumably the same master would also teach you how to go about using what they'll help you develop.Suffice to say, there's shitload of scams there, be it by practitioners who never really developed enough to do any healing worth a damn or even by supposed masters who lack proper initiation and ability themselves, but provide flawed, unreliable initiations to others.
>>42084637>its dinner time, catch up laterWelp, still waiting. You have long dinners, dude. Hoping you'll deliver some exercise/practice that will show objective results, with no space for it being dependent on subjective feelings and interpretation. I don't expect pop-culture flinging of fireballs, but damn.. something.
>>42082739put it on video then . Or stfu with your bullshit
As in the last thread:If anyone wants a jumpstart in their cultivation I am willing to clear as much of your astral/etheric body’s channels/chakras of blockages as our karmas will allow at this point in time. I will also break all contracts that are opposed to your highest good and any curses/entities preventing proper cultivation. In some cases this will awaken your kundalini in others there’s still more work to be done. All you need to do is reply to me and I will send you an energetic transmission. This will be my last thread for a while for cultivation. I’m going to be very busy with my own progress afterwards so get it while you can! God bless.
>>42088239Can you do this for the entirety of earths population?
>>42088255I can and continuously do after certain benchmarks are met but due to higher level rules, karma, and spiritual war in higher planes people all don’t simply all feel inner peace at once or get energetic upgrades at once but where a person might not have been able to discover spirituality the blockages in their heart and faith are removed and they can discover that path for themselves. Others might be able to receive a miracle through prayer or some form of healing they would otherwise not. Many monks/holy men contribute to this sort of thing on a global scale with their daily meditations and extended retreats with the intention of blessing mankind. A one on one transmission or transmission for you and loved ones will be felt much more as you are accepting it yourself and choosing to change your karma for the better where as globally it would be a collective conscious sort of thing.
>>42086703>When I try to do it, I feel suffocated and immediately gasp for air. Is this how it should be or do I need to do some preparatory exercises?that sounds odd to me and doesnt really computeusually if you're running out of air that means you're not exhaling fully enoughmind your posture, if you're hunched forward you're not going to be able to take a full breath

>>42088941you're only going to be able to breathe so slowly for your given current state before your body fights backpart of the trick of making progress is to push these boundaries gently without triggering your body's feedback mechanismsseek to breathe on the slow side of what's comfortable and work from there

>>42089439Can you describe the sensations you felt, energetically, as your breath became slender and you progressed in your practice? If you felt an increase in energy, what did that feel like? Any surprises?
>>42089439how one goes about it again? Can you link the posts because I think there was several, something about proper breathing? sorry, me dumb, need autistically detailed step-by-step guide for dumb dumbs
>>42079839I´m new to this general but it seems very cool, but can some anons here help me out? I find kundalini the most interesting but can you practice it on your own or do you need a guru? also for those of you that practice it, where would you say a beginner should start?
>>42083966>>42089899 see aboveGo to previous thread and search for the archive.4plebs.org links, or go directly there and search olfactoryanon
>>42089947IMHO kundalini is much likely to bring you some results in practicing solo than majority of eastern energy cultivation traditions. Which doesn't mean it'd be easy in general or that a good teacher wouldn't make a huge difference - but you can have a gander at it on your own, it'll be just tougher, the effects likely slower and risks bigger.I don't practice it myself but as I understand it, there's just a bunch of basic practices you keep at, before moving to other practices.
>>42089947Have you researched it at all? Seems like kundalini is a warned about as the thing not to dabble in as a beginner.
>>42090074Not that anonKundalini comes with risks by default, but at least it's easier to get somewhere there. The risks will be there though, and you will have to manage them yourself without decent master.
>>42089460Lol I’m glad to hear it.
>>42089955Okay, so I read that, can you elaborate on breathing? What do you mean "not sniffing the air", or how the air is not meant to go through some particular opening like nose/throat? Diaphragm is one thing but the air has to enter somehow.
>>42090041>it'll be just tougher, the effects likely slower and risks bigger.im not in a rush really so taking time is planned in>>42090074>Have you researched it at all?not really, it all seems rather convoluted for an outsider like me>>42090085what would those risks even contain? like physical pain or going insane or something along those lines?
>>42090297>what would those risks even contain? like physical pain or going insane or something along those lines?Both and more. Stuff like hallucinations, losing touch with base reality, involuntary behaviors and actions are not very rare around kundalini awakening. Sometimes it may be long-lasting schizoprenia-like bullshit on top of your body twisting itself as it adjusts to the energy. I recall some qigong practitioner claiming it's because unlike in "proper" qigong practice, kundalini practitioners tend to just concentrate on building and pushing shitload of energy through central channel without caring about preparing it first, just brute forcing energy body development and that makes their physical and subtle bodies go haywire. Many practitioners get better over time as spirit, mind and body adjusts but sometimes there's damage left.
>>42089899sorry was busy at work
>>42090193>What do you mean "not sniffing the air", or how the air is not meant to go through some particular opening like nose/throat? Diaphragm is one thing but the air has to enter somehow.there's a very significant difference between letting the guts move the air, and using the airways to buffer the incoming air and assist in its travels through the airwaysyou'd be surprised how much you sniff at the air while you breatheof course the air goes through the nostrils and suchbut you're not using the sinuses or other structures that the air touches to facilitate the air's movementdoing this necessarily draws air across the olfactory nerves, which causes neurological potentials to be generated, energy consumed, senses processedyou want to make the flow completely turbulence freebut any action from the nose, sinuses, throat, etc, will serve to cause turbulence, draw air to the olfactory nervesrestraining the senses means refining the breath until the turbulence is gonesince breath is the most coarse ongoing bodily function that we have a decent measure of control over.
>>42090297>im not in a rush really so taking time is planned inthis is goodbuild the foundation first before moving on to anything more advancedit is both a power adder as well as a safety mechanism
>>42084188its self explanatory, if you have a deaf ear, you cant hear with it, its not working the way it should. so if a part of your body is not working the way it should then it will throw things out of wack.there is a difference between being a tight ass, and a loose ass. a tight ass has trouble relaxing. a loose ass has no control whatsoever of the muscle group. often times what you will see with homosexual men is that later in life they may need to wear diapers because they lack control of the sphincter. i am telling you this, which i bet you can already understand. don't misuse your body for something its not suppose to be for. there are ramifications of that. which could be you having trouble climbing up your chakras to higher points of energy.
>>42083012then why don't i see any professional MMA fighters that claim this style?
there is an advance meditation i know for advance chakra control. its pretty damn difficult. but essentially you hold the first chakra at the bas of the spine. following this also squeeze your 2nd chakra, which is just slightly below you navel. the 3rd chakra you pull your stomach in and up into your rib cage. you cannot do anything for the heart. but you lock the first 3 chakras all at once. this isnt easy. it takes practice. you will find that you lock your first chakra, then your second and when you try your third, your first chakra relaxes. so after you have all 3 chakras locked, you then can go for the 5th and 6th chakra. the fifth one is your throat. you tuck your chin into your chest. while also rolling your tongue. for your 6th chakra, you keep your eyes close and you peer into your 3rd eye.so you lock the first 3, then you do the 5th and 6th one. you hold all those together in such manner for as long as you can. eventually you will need to breathe which will release the hold. but this kind of body control should only be done after you have oxygenated your blood by deep breathwork. maybe one day you try. I have done this before myself. but its still very difficult since it takes a lot of focus and control of the body.
oh yeah one more thing, for the 6th chakra where you are looking up into your third eye. you mentally think "Aum Mani Padme Hum".so there. thats your really difficult chakra practice. hold all 3 first gates. then lock the 5th by rolling the tongue, 6th by peering up and thinking the mantra Aum Mani Padme Hum. if you can do all of that for just a few moments. its pretty impressive in my eyes.
>>42090858the average human is barely sentient
>>42090933you know i have heard that practicing hatha yoga, lord shiva protects its practitioners. but i have never heard of someone taking a technique like this and believing its for fighting.
>>42086189Late reply on my part but if doable I'd be grateful. I'm literally allergic to everything here plantwise, at least in the allergen category. Oak, cedar, pine, ragweed, you name it. Like, a proper allergy test result just showed red across the board. But also dust, cats, and probably other minor things.Haven't found much in the way of retuning immune system which, frankly, I'm quite surprised by given how much it seems like it'd go well with energy stuff.
>>42086703>>42088449Probably not related but let me tell you about what I learned from deviated septum surgery research. There are things called turbinads which get inflamed from allergies. During a surgery these are typically shaved (mine were), but you can request them not be. Rarely, something somehow goes wrong here and people report a subjective feeling of not getting any airflow (despite measurable air getting into them/their lungs). Sometimes it's enough to even drive people to suicide.It's probably not related to this I just wanted to share and say that there's a -lot- that goes into breathing, both physiologically and psychologically.>>42088239Sure anon-senpai, that'd be appreciated.

>>42091568meds now
>>42091016part of the reason I havent had a cold or seasonal allergy in like 20 years is because I do shaking medicine and use the hand form to crunch the energy of the lower dt & solar plexus, which makes the niwan react and a side effect is saliva, snivel, tearscombine that with a hot shower every night,the shit never builds up to reach the point of manifesting as a sicknessproto-sicknesses are expelled in this way
>>42091041>Rarely, something somehow goes wrong here and people report a subjective feeling of not getting any airflow (despite measurable air getting into them/their lungs). Sometimes it's enough to even drive people to suicide.well, for meditative breath you want to eliminate this anywayjust because there's no feeling doesnt mean there's no airflow, as you saidbut bring this to a minimist concept and the flow becomes fine enough for the nerves to not detect itthis ceases these neural cascades that form and eliminates a lot of side processingthis is why when you train it to a very high degree, you achieve the random thought free mindbecause you have eliminated their rootsI had to train very deeply in order to make these realizations, they come from my own practicebut you reach a point where you make these sorts of connectionsthe senses are literally the basis for the ruminating mindthe popping off of random thoughts is a blowoff valvebut if you make the process efficient enough then it becomes unnecessary and the requisite potentials for them to manifest are not present
>>42089881the best part about how I began is I read just a bit of the right material and tried to bring its execution to whatever logical conclusions I mightfrom ymaaEB, soft, calm, slender, long, deeplongevity breathing, just the notionI had to troubleshoot some things and ask the question, what exactly are the mechanics of a proper meditative breath, how to begin an inhaleenergetic things come once the physical refinements are integratedyou want to enhance this signal to noise ratioattenuating the noise autoenhances the signalmake efficiency gains, gung builds because of this, rigorously appliedallows longer, deeper breathsrevealing eventually that the base needs are energetic and not chemicalchi flows where yi goesfocus on the proprioception of ittrain itthen it becomes superlatively well programmed into the autonomic instruction sets of the bodythis allows for more keeping the awarenessI had a perception of light form in my gutthe gongfu of inner vision is to see clearly, honestlyso it becomes difficult to describebut it was accompanied by a sensation of energetic potentialover some number of sessions, it grew from a golf ball's size to a peach, a grapefruit, encompassed the peritoneum, the torso, began to radiate off my skin, grew larger, larger, until beyond perceptionuntil the focus came back and I was sitting, a size distortion happened where I was 3 inches tall in the location of the dantien, before I realized no, I'm my actual sizeafter this I began placing my awareness in the niwan, and the manifestation of the light was as I've described abovehundreds, and hundreds of timesit returns like an old friend, so happy to see you again

>>42092061I have a YTT 200 hour certification through the RYS Yoga Alliance. I have been studying this kind of field on and off for 13 years. I can assure you as someone who has walked the walk and talk the talk that there are plenty of people misinformed on the subject. It doesn't take a genius to understand this field. but you can tell easily when someone does not know what they are talking about. At least I am certified to actually teach this. unlike others.

All Yogic Guru's believe that teachings should be free. which i can agree, but in this world. pay up or i dont work. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>42089947>I find kundalini the most interestingDaoist internal alchemy would be an alternative. Guru? Seek and you will find.
>>42092834What a useless addition to this thread. Bragging about your LGBTQ+ yoga cert in a paragraph of nothing.
Can someone please chi ball me with good energy? I really need help. It’s 3am and feel such terror inside of me. I’m female too.
>>42093322I learned from a Monk that lived in the Himilayan mountain range. which is great, because that is the place where a lot of Yogi's and Monks really spend their entire life devoting time to the practice of meditation. and also the place where young people learn from meditation masters.Now i cannot say that i have learned it all. but trying to take advice from a cocksucka like yourself. woooo. now you can shut up and listen. or you can pretend to know it all. i dont need you. like why are you even here? like im a level 5 trying to get a level 1, 2, 3, or 4 up one place. where you are probably just a spreader of false teachings yourself. You have no teacher, you have no certification to teach in America.whats it to me? whats it to YOU?
like i dont need a piece of paper for my credentials. i have teachers that know i know what i am doing. they knew what they were doing themselves. but i have one anyways.i dont lack credibility. you do.
>>42079839I love this general, although I would really, really, appreciate it if the experience individuals would create some /ecg/ paste-bin where sources or methods like how to practice stillness and other techniques are posted on Do that and it would make my and many others extremely grateful
>>42092834>>42093406NTAMaking most of the message about your supposed competence proven by pointless peace of paper in effort to put yourself above someone else does not have the effect you think it does. Quite the opposite, it makes it look more like very unsophisticated ego trip.
>>42093438Then how is he supposed to prove his competence, >He doesn’t say anything Larppp, you haven’t done shit>He does say something Larppp, you’re overcompensating
>>42093250>Daoist internal alchemy would be an alternative.sounds super interesting as well, but for me its best to concentrate on one system before i fuck up tow lol. are you doing taoist alchemy?>>42090525>>42090334yeah not tryingto brute force brain damage
>>42093438i have cousins and many people i know that know this kind of stuff that have been practicing longer than i have. so you think i need this thread? you think i need you? its a family affair in my world, its a family business in my world. we like our yoga and meditation. you blow me off, i bet you can find another teacher, but like hell you think i need you, when i can place a phone call and literally ask someone smart about whatever i think i may need to know. Its like you are suspicious on why i am here. well i am here because i was you a long time ago. like i know what kind of thread i am posting in. but to deny me what i know. sheesh. do you even have credentials?
like one cousin is going to teach in a studio tomorrow. another cousin works in a rehab facility where they use yoga and meditation to get suicidal, drug addicts and people with PTSD some help. and here i sit a vessel of information that has learned from experienced masters from far distant lands, and excellent students that go out every day and do this for people. with my big noggin. and i look upon a thread of jackasses that think they know what they are doing. just thought id help. i mean i can do anything i realistically want. but this topic is something that has always been of interest to my own kind. and i just so happen to be well versed. do you even know the fucking wae?

All disinfo/timewasting agents and their organizations, whoever is responsible for the bots all the way to the top, anyone spreading purposely false will be cursed until they repent and cease their actions. Do Not stand in front of seekers of the Way. Let them know.

>>42093492we appreciate your posts but perhaps you could just dial down the schizo prose from 7/10 to 4/10, mkay?
>>42093958>when the heart and abdomen are linkedthis takes place after the breath has reached a sufficient level of refinementthe breaths are slow, but the heart doesnt quite follow it immediatelyit speeds up with the inhale, slows down with the exhaleto get past this, some time needs to be spent with the awareness at the heart until the heart becomes harmonized with the process and returns to a "normal beat" that is slower but does not waver with the inhales and exhales as before
>>42093452>Then how is he supposed to prove his competence,He can explain his stance and move on. Those who'll believe him or not do it then at their own responsibility. Certainly it's more smart than trying to lord it over others - you won't show superiority by going on ego trips here.>>42093455>I have this, I don't need that, I know these or thoseYou've missed the point. I've pointed out I am not the anon you were arguing with. I am a person telling you that by trying to show off here makes you only look suspicious. How can I believe you have any degree of spiritual development if you cannot stop yourself from dick measuring contest against an anonymous person on the internet?>do you even have credentials?For what, to tell you that you act like a spoiled brat? Sure, about the same as anyone else under the blue sky.>so you think i need this thread? you think i need you?No. But you seem to forget it goes both ways. We don't really need you either. The thread will function just fine without your ego trips. Not that the anon you've argued with was a saint, but he just made random comment, it's you who acted childish and as if you'd be personally insulted. Again, if you're this petty, you are the one making yourself look like a kid with a chip on their shoulder, and no quantity of credentials will fix that image.That's all. You know my reasoning now and if you plan to be all defensive about it, feel free to but I don't plan to indulge you further.
>>42094378Interesting. This is the heart-mind tech you referred to before?I’ve noticed that after about a half hour of good stillness my body feels like a crystallized shell, and that my attention can wander within or around it at will. This is all very cool.
Have an English translation of Emanuel Swedenborg’s dream journal:https://archive.org/details/emanuelswedenbor00swed/page/3/mode/1up
>>42094406>This is the heart-mind tech you referred to before?yes, the breath carries forth as per how you've trained it, the awareness goes to the heartand you're kinda just intent-telling it>its all good little buddy, calm, soft, smooth, smooth it outwithout words of course because those bastards get in the way of cultivation
>>42094406>and that my attention can wander within or around it at will.you dont want to wander, thoughkeep your attention where it needs to be for the stage you are working on at that pointkeep sessions coherent, consistentwork towards the goal
>>42094427Okay. As far as goals right now, I am only trying to breathe as subtly and long as possible, from the gut as per your posts. My attention I am trying to keep in between the perineum and the diaphragm, but also focused on the breath - which feels distracting but I assume it will feel that way until as you say the slender breathing becomes natural and without effort.
>>42094427NTAGot a training regime to follow thorough one's prace? Can recommend some? I know most people claim there's no chance to get anywhere without some sort of master, but I wonter if you have the next best thing.
I’ve also been focusing on my breath during long walks. Even when not meditating, breathing this way noticeably reduced mind clutter.
>>42094453get the timing of the motions down so that they are harmoniousafter that, focus on maintaining the air flow to be as subtle as possibledont worry about it becoming natural without effort, that is a result of the trainingits important to understand that mastering breathwork is a stagethe relaxation, naturalness, et al come as mastery is achievedso while one relaxes his body during the training, it is important to train the process so that the body remembersthen that's where the training shines through
>>42094459>Got a training regime to follow thorough one's prace? Can recommend some? I've mentioned this a bunch over the time I've been posting herefor best results, the session at the end of the day should be at least 1 hourfor best results, there should be multiple sessions per day so as to maximize the habituation of the effortearlier sessions dont need to be long but when they are frequent, you enhance the benefit and habituation happens more quickly5-10-20 min sessions for these earlier onesthose times alone dont do a heck of a lot, but when paired with the hour+ end of day session and the short ones happen 3-4 times throughout the dayalso to the point of just grabbing a moment here and there to breath-resetthis all has cumulative benefitsthe better one completes this stage, the more it shines later on>I know most people claim there's no chance to get anywhere without some sort of master, but I wonter if you have the next best thing.training the foundation does not require a master's supervision to accomplish well, this work is all on the practitionerit is a pretty simple process, the hard part lies in diligently executing often enoughI dont teach other things here for this reason, same reason I dont hand out books of matches to 4 year olds and tell them go have fun with 'em, it would be irresponsibleits too easy to try and jump ahead, thinking one might make faster progress this way, but its not the casethe more solidly the foundation is built, the faster the progresssame as maths, you dont skip to algebra without learning long division and fractions first or its gonna be a tougher slog
>>42094463Beginner's mistake is thinking that you can only meditate in silence and isolation, while in reality you can meditate anywhere at any time.
>>42094494You did mention some exercises and sessions but I am asking about training regime, as in, breakdown of exercises, order in which it should be practiced, from the very beginning, as if you'd be talking with someone who thinks qigong is what they sell at local asian restaurant and meditation is the stuff wizards do in D&D to refill their spell slots.Do you have something like that, not necessarily your own, but what works/described things well and what you could recommend someone?I admit I did practice some stuff over the years, with various results, of various kinds, but I look for something more solid and orderly to start from scratch now and which would carry me for years to come and I hope that you've got something like that I can have a gander at.
>>42094506I reckon it's because many beginners have hard time wrangling their thoughts and attention when there's stuff beside silence and isolation disrupting them.
>>42094355Not the anon you replied to, but this way you can condense your instructions and troubleshooting tips which you can refer to anytime. Moreover, if it covers all the bases in one's practice, someone can make a pdf and publish it.(with your consent of course)
>>42094355Since you keep getting questions for stuff you've answered and people need to search archives all the time, having one link ready with all the stuff other may want to know could save everyone time and effort
>>42094614I get what you guys are saying, but I'm literally using our interactions here to help refine the writing of my bookas I consider this foundational material to be human birthright, I will make sure a pdf copy is free for all of humanityI appreciate yalls patience
What is the wuji state?
>>42094891>What is the wuji state?it is balance, it is achieving the unmanifestedpeople are always worried about manifesting this or that, they dont realize that bolstering the unmanifested is what allows the body to make its decisions uninfluenced by the mind and this winds up being the most efficient pathpeople want to worry about how can I cultivate my sexual energy, this is the wrong way to go about itwhen you cultivate to the point of wuji, then you're leaving these various energies in their raw base stateconversions always come with a costso for example the body will reabsorb sperm and suchbut its much more efficient and effective to not make more than necessary to begin with>Wuji (无极), translating to "limitless" or "ultimate of nothingness," is a fundamental concept in Chinese philosophy and Taoism representing the primordial state of emptiness, stillness, and non-duality before the existence of Yin and Yang - symbolizing potential, perfect balance, and harmonious energy

There's a reason why practitioners of certain traditions are discouraged even from practiting some things from other, similar traditions, yet you treat it like some generalized help. IF your intent is genuine I applaud it but I wonder how many people - assuming you are actually capable of making a difference - got themselves fucked up by pursuing practices not agreeing with whatever you'd do to them.
