>>I would just check in to your intentions see if there are some emotions.<<
*That's good advice. When the heart is clouded with negativity, what you want, as Alexander said, will become a trap. Positive virtues will make the way clear.
It seems like we need to work on the ego.

>>The real question is: “What do I want?” Beyond that, it’s about facing what we feel when we ask the question.<<
*Thank you, Alexander, this was helpful.
It seems like we need to work on the negative ego, which leads us into the trap of wanting the wrong things. I guess it's best to continue with alchemical work and the heart will lead the…[Read more]

Hi Freeform,
I do not dislike relationships and I haven’t developed any negative patterns as a result of disliking them.
My questions pertained more to male female relationships other than cultivation or a means for reproduction. The split of androgynous self into male and female was because stepping down into linear timeframe, the body…[Read more]

Michael,
Nice peice. My version differs from yours a little, maybe we can agree?
Hun and Po souls need personal heart shen to command them to re-unite with Original Spirit. The same goes for Heaven and Earth needing Man to all combine with Dao. So, we can relate them this way:
Hun = Heaven
Po = Earth
Personal Heart Shen = Man
Original…[Read more] -

Hello Bagua,
I guess what you mean by macroway and humanity is Dao and Man. Well, I relate concsiousness to Yuan Shen. It is about continuing evolution of Original Spirit by understanding Dao and Man. We should learn as much as we can about our bodies and the macrocosmic way of nature and seek greater union of them. Daoists have already gotten…[Read more]

Hey Bagua,
I like it when you said that the real alchemy is about how well we use it to adapt to life. This is what I think is the critical point in inner alchemy.
In Yoga, you are familiar with the states of superconcsiousness. It is states like these like Christ Concsiousness or whatever you call it that allow us to adapt to life. That’s…[Read more]

Hi Bagua,
Interesting. Oceans that sing and Baguas that spin and Fajin strikes that explode!
Everything would be in harmony between man and Dao, but it is the negative ego of man that blocks this harmony and man is not in harmony with Heaven and Earth. The Reptilian told me that everything in the universe is perfect, it is only in us the…[Read more]

Hi Singing Ocean,
You made a strong point that is the key between this debate. It is that Bagua sees that creation happened all at once like the Big Bang. While we see it as a process. From One to Two, Two to Three, Three to Ten Thousand and we try to make it go back again in that process. But that’s the thing, that Bagua does not buy into…[Read more]

Hi Bagua,
Thank you very much for the wonderful reply. I’m glad that I left a tattoo on your heart, you have made a permanent one on mine as well. And good advice on meeting that special someone, I’ll remember this. Thank you!

Well, the big question is of course, why did Heaven and Earth create humanity?

Hello Bagua,
Did you miss me?
Don’t know if that’s what Michael meant, but I’ll leave off from your assumptions.
A good peice of advice that I was told on Wudang was to follow Earth. Why? Because Earth follows Heaven, and Heaven follows Dao. If we follow Earth, then we know we’re on the right track. Ahhhhhhhh, why I so adore the martial…[Read more]

Hello Michael,
>>Unlike Fajin, I do not equate God with Tao; I equate all Creator Gods with emanations of Original Spirit, but that is another discussion<<
*I agree with Christianity about the trinity. That there are three Gods one. The Father (yang), the Son (yin), and the Holy Spirit (yuan).
I equate the Father to Dao. Yang, because…[Read more]

Bagua,
I know intent is present always. I mean that by intent to cultivating empty space, you are bound to that one thing. I mean simulating Dao in the creation process. Not going straight to Wu Ji.
You misunderstand me for the pearl method as only Daoist. What bout Yoga? The Kundalini is your essence being refined up the chakras. There is a…[Read more]

Are you in a relationship? Can you tell me why or why not? Just interested in your choice.

Max,
I don’t care what other Daoists have been doing in the past. They have also done external alchemy of which I would not do.
My purpose of explaining it was no to compare Buddhism and Daoism, but to state the importance of following the natural re-alignment of balance and harmony in any incoherent pattern, ie. the workings of the…[Read more]

Michael,
Excellent peice. I’ll share some insights before I depart for the weekend.
My alien visitations on the dream plane was to a 4,600 year old (in our linear time) Reptilian, of which I was one in a past life. The androgynous being told me about the astral pollution you talk about, I humbly agree with you.

Hi Bagua,
I’m going to add something more.
i know what you mean about saying that the Hun and Po are total and not partial. About what Michael says in regards to Novak, I agree with him that the split occurs at death, and we need to do something in this lifetime. Daoists attempt to achieve immortality, Buddhists attempt to achieve…[Read more]
