“i do not KNOW that a chi ball is really having an effect any greater than a nice walk..
Once you get really far along with these formulas these are some pretty unbelieveable things..
you have to check yourself and go ‘was any of it real?’ ”
I-
The parts of yourself that ask that question have been taught by you to judge reality by certain standards and only those standards. When experience presents something to those parts which challenge its definition of reality they balk at it, want to deny it and resist the process of life which is to show that more is going on than we presumed. Why do you, the being, listen to those parts instead of challenging what they tell you? Why is what THEY question to YOU more valid than what YOU could question to THEM? Who has the power here?When you stop listening to the doubting, fearful parts and begin to listen more to yourself, then you will experience trust as well as the tentative enjoyment you allow yourself to have and the questions about whether any of this is real or not will begin to vanish. Until coached to do something better, personalities are invested in protecting themselves from change, from what they are threatened by, and by listening to them instead of directing them, we experience doubt, inner conflict and frustration. Not that asking questions is wrong. It’s that questioning with an open mind is going to give you completely different (true) feedback than questioning out of fear.
Relax even more with all this and just let it in. Obviously a large part of you is already going in this direction or you wouldn’t have let yourself practice this stuff for so long or persist in your conversations here as you have been. You are looking for a higher level of fulfillment.
As far as “proof” goes, you will come across all you need as time goes by. Just leave your door ajar and create that attitude of scientific openness that comes from curiosity and awe about who we are and where we live.

Interestingly, Christopher Hyatt of New Falcon, the publishing house that is a bastion of Leary-related thought (including Robert A. Wilson of course), has increasingly moved into energy work himself, heavily influenced by Israel Regardie, who was a dedicated energy worker and healer (i.e., deemphasising using drugs for consciousness shifts).

are those same coomon sense parts that people outside that reality tunnel appear to be using..
it is very easy to trick the mind and want to believe something..
it’s very difficult to think that consiousnes is going to survive death without some vehicle for doing so..
what is the individual vehicle to carry consiousnes through death? I highly doubt it..
maybe so maybe not,but I bet you just about anyone is going to REALLY question it when their life is on the line.. is chi THAT real?
Like I said, it may be, but there’s an equally good chance that even the staunchest athiest might pray to JESUS at death (if they ever see it coming)
then there’s the issue of whether faith in the afterlife ruins the life impulse which demands survival..
that’s a big isue with all the “peace” religions..
but anyway,
all I am saying is subjective “inner” (scoff scoff) experience is WAY to flimsy, it always has been.. people are weak

It’s called firing a bliss circuit.

whenever water chi is above the crown and in my face, it seems like it is starting to loosen up a long term sinus congestion
the water chi seems to be declogging my whole head while my ida and pingala currents invert around one another

Zhong Qi or Gathering Qi is the essences from Spleen mixing with Lung and Air to make this vital Qi. Metal element is the most potent connection to Air.
