Hi Pete!

Yes, you can bring in Yin Earth energy into your practice of the orbit. Not sure where you are learning the oribit from, but this is one thing you might consider working with. The other factor is that it can be normal to experience the heat at times during the spiritual awakening process.

Some people find visualizing an iceberg in…[Read more]

I am concerned about the regime of China becoming more powerful. It is pretty clear that this is not a regime of democracy or for the rights of individuals. Although I share your enthusiam for the spread of esoteric teachings, these can be found by people in many cultures and does not require exporting of esoteric knowledge from China (although…[Read more]

I saw a show on a tribe in South America (I think) and the people married many others, men and women alike. A 50 year old women might have a 50 year old husband, a 13 year old husband, and a 75 year old husband. And these men would have many wifes as too. It isn’t wrong, it is what the social norm is for them. Yet, I didn’t get the sense that…[Read more]

Absolutely Beautiful!

I experienced the light and the bliss too. Yes! there is nothing to be worried about 🙂

Namaste,

Hi Digdug,

I experienced an inner aspect of being that was a star. It was so bright and blazing. I was like, are we stars? Oh my God, we are Stars! So yea, I too feel it is all related in some way or another.

While on this topic, I am curious if anyone has experienced / practiced the marrying of the lights as taught by Master Chia in their own Alchemy?

Although I have experienced a lot of light, it wasn’t anything like trying to make them come together. It is funny becuase sometimes when I see lights, I think I am supposed to do something with them…[Read more]

Hi Wendy, thanks for the response. I have experienced the blue more present light as well, this is different though to me. I just noticed it one day when I shut my eyes, not even meditating. Then after a number of times that it happened, I thought, hmm I ya know, I wonder what this blue small blue radiant light is all about.

I haven’t tried…[Read more]

Thanks SnowLion for the response. I have seen it referred to as when the mind is quiet and all thoughts are stilled that this will appear, it was in some Indian Guru’s book as well that I read last year. Yea, it seems related to the Pineal.

A friend forward this to me yesterday. It is really good but an hour long…http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5834867580747017149

Hi Michael,

Cool video. The only feedback I have on HT t-shirts, is that I wished they came in XL! Any hope for that in the future?

Nnonnth,

No problem, I will tell you what I recall about it. I just couldn’t remember exactly and didn’t want to give you misinformation.

It says something about when enough sexual energy gets into the brain – pituitary gland, this happens.

It is definitely a pleasant experience and pretty common on the path! so enjoy!

Matt

Nnonnth,

This is addressed in “Taoist Secrets of Love; Cultivating Male Sexual Energy”. Sorry I couldn’t find the exact page for you. If you have the book look it over.

This has happened to me many times, mostly in the Spring.

Matt

Yes that is it. The dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is thought to be the active ingredient which is also produced in the body by the pineal gland and is thought to facilitate mystic experiences ( a link on the topic: http://www.bridgeofstars.co.uk/pineal-gland.htm).

DMT is illegal in the US, however, a peruvian religious group who drinks the tea as…[Read more]

I enjoyed reading his book Cosmic Serpent and DNA – or something like that. It was mentally stimulating, but I wasn’t overly impressed. It seemed to me that he was very much interested in presenting his “hypothesis”. Seemed to be playing to the academic crowd for self promotion. I do respect the field work he did and the time spent with native…[Read more]

No, I haven’t seen any books that teach congress. Yet, from what I understand of the formula, if one still needs to rely on forumals after practicing up to this point, is that I have seen the principle in other traditions.

Have you practiced everything up to Congress?

Matt

I have Eric’s book and although there are some basic meditations, it is primarily a comparison versus teaching the higher formulas.

I am not aware that Chia publicly teaches Congress. Michael teaches his own understanding of that formula every two years at Tao mountain.

Matt

Christopher,

Welcome to the forum!

Like you, I felt that Taoist stuff was right up my alley and way of understanding.

If you primary interest is in Taoist Alchemy then you have come to a good place here. The Healing Tao practices can help provide you with practical ways to pursue this further.

Regarding the astral, my perspective is…[Read more]
