Reminds me of many exquisite ‘low stance’ torture sessions in the dojo.
Pushing to such high levels of flexible fitness is really worth it though; it obviates all kinds of negative crap, and the torture gives way to the pleasure of having acquired the easy expression of craft (my favourite word for translating ‘gong’, deeply ingrained skill,…[Read more] -

Simon V. replied to the topic Visualization vs. Actualization — And Empty Semantics in the forum General 19 years, 4 months ago
Reminds me of the Silva mind control method; first you have to learn how to reliably get to your ‘level’ (alpha) before any of the commands (‘visualizations’) will ‘actually’ work.
I also read a hindu yogi say people were always saying to him that mantras and such didn’t work for them and that was because, he said, they weren’t ‘going deep…[Read more]

Simon V. replied to the topic Female orgasm = no fear state (science study) in the forum General 19 years, 5 months ago
I feel that a certain minimum amount of genuine tenderness and comraderie, and/or the radiating of a deeper, intriguing and exciting atmosphere, makes both sides of the gender equation more likely to let go of anxiety; even a ‘skillful lover’ may be emotionlly cold and basically coming from a selfish place.

Develop very strong concentration, particularly the ability to quiet down your thoughts. Develop ongoing but relaxed awareness of your stream of thoughts.
Don’t indulge in mental-emotinal junk food like pointlessly violent movies and books, video games, etc. If you do, pay attention to your thoughts while doing so and clear your mind…[Read more]
