Hello Zakyrus,
thanks for the help.
I had an self-realization and god-realization experience 10 years ago. The "means" was self-inquiry with an enlightened Advaita Master. But the experience "faded away", it was not stable. But I KNOW who I am and what I am, this will never go away in this life, just the awareness of it is most of the time lost in identification with the body-mind.
That's awesome. Moments like that are a 'preview' of what it'll be like all the time. The reason it 'faded away' is not necessarily because it was an unstable energy. For Oneness is perfectly stable, immortal, invulnerable, it's already perfect so it doesn't need to change or evolve. The instability equated with the 'fading' is actually your egoic mind, trying to 'stabilize' itself through it's instability. In 'time' (pun always intended) your stability will be assured and your realization will become 'concrete'
I would like to stick to a practice which is not esoteric nonsense but authentic and real - this is the reason for my question.
Don't we all. I too have gone through 'the spiritual buffet line' so to speak. I would say, SFQ is pretty darn good. Of course, focus of the positive feelings in your 'daily life' rather than specific techniques will always advance your further.
I have also very much experience with Mantak Chias Tao Yoga, mainly the microcosmic orbit. I can send my body energy within seconds to every body-part very easily.
Excellent, that means you're getting good results from your practice. If you keep your energy 'transparent' and you'll be able to 'do it' instantaneously. Experiment with various visualizations, such as lightning (goes pretty fast!) or teleportation... try feeling the energy instantly flowing into your hand and see if you can reduce the 'delay' by making your physical energy 'clear and transparent'
But I can not see how energy practices can point to the source of all energy, it is (at least intellectually) unclear to me. Maybe it is connected to the "higher chakras"? (Ajna and/or Sahasrara?)
The Source, is in another 'dimension' entirely. It's why we have an 'emptiness' between 'Us' and Wholeness... Scientist are right now, are trying to find the so-called "God-particle" what's ironic is they never will. Because they're looking for something 'smaller and smaller' and think that "something" can be the base building block...well, what's that smallest "bit" made out of...?
Einstein and Bhudda both said the "Form is emptiness, and all emptiness is form" On "our' dimension--Mind is transparent and obscure. Yet to visualize a thought or intention, your mind-intent spirals down on condenses into electrons, which send out little 'radio-like' signals, rippling 'outwards' to the Universe and the Universe resonates with it and returns it to you for your Mind to experience (completing an 'electrical' circuit sort of like turning on a lamp)
There is also a great diffence for me in the microcosmic orbit in SFQ and Tao Yoga. When doint the SFQ microcosmic orbit you stay only for one breath at one energy center, in Tao Yoga you stay for a long time on one center until you go to the next. This feels for me much more efficient but I need more time with SFQ orbit to really can judge the difference.
They are actually pretty much the same, just two 'different' methods of opening up the same thing. While I haven't done the Tao Yoga one 'personally' but it seems to me that it would be more for 'super-charging' the points, and the SFQ method would be more for 'opening the main channels, and keeping them open-while charging them at the same time'
Either way, they'll both do the same thing eventually. I've done the 'traditional QiGong method' which is "Inhale: Energy moves from Dantien down and around and up the spine to the Third Eye, Exhale: from the Third Eye to the Lower Dantien"
This is a 'simpler' method than SFQ's in some ways, but more 'complicated' in others. Simpler in that it's one breath cycle, and you open all the points. More complicated, because you can get distracted easily. SFQ's is simpler is the aspect that you have to stay with it, and constantly 'move to the next spot' which helps develop focus a little better, I think.
Again, thanks for your help.
Btw.: is your self-awareness stable?
Br,
Darko
No prob. I just like to be "legit", and help people out... seeing as 'ego' and selfishness are totally pointless. So why keep a good 'philosophy' to myself, or even more, if I've studied and simplified various systems and found practical and useful information 'for dealing with almost every situation' why keep it to myself? What would be the point?
For the most part yes, my self-awareness is accomplished in the sense. Yes, I sometimes get 'annoyed' or distracted but I've gotten to the point where "anything happens that would disturb my peace" I immediately stop and remember what it's for, an opportunity for forgiveness and a chance to dissolve ego--and retuning to what we really are: Immortal. I can tell you that when you get to the point where you 'stop reacting' automatically to everything, and see it with Perfect Love (all the time) you're almost home. For the most part, I still "hear" the voice of the ego, yet the Holy Spirits is now equally clear (so at least "some" duality is 'restored' rather than just hearing negativity all the time)
While I cannot "tell you" 'what' the Source IS. I can metaphorically give you practical ways to experience it. The memory of our Eternal Origin, has been long obscured by ego and we've been symbolically trapped in time/space ever since, for what seems like trillions of aeons. Yet, because that separation is impossible, the moment we 'left' the Holy Spirit (Spirit of Wholeness) and the moment we returned, is less than the blink of an eye to Eternity. In fact, it never happened at all.
Simply realizing that the separation NEVER occurred, is enough to make ego shrink away and heal it's symbolic energy problems. Of course, you should never attempt this realization 'on your own' because going 'on your own' symbolically and thinking you could leave Spirit is the *cause* of time/space (fanatics and scientists, would probably try to discredit this, because ego attempts to protect it's own interests)
You should ALWAYS do everything *with* Spirit... every-time you 'symbolically' need to make a choice, simply ask your 'Inner Self' what you should do. With your Inner Self rather than your outer self (ego) as your Guide, you can't go wrong. All of the Masters you join with, all of your friends and family and loved ones, and the entire Awakened World is joined with you--you can't go wrong.
One of the most profound and useful meditations I've ever come across I'll relay here. I didn't write this, I 'borrowed it' from ACIM, yet the meditation is said to be older than time itself...it rejoins you with Source and purifies your energy. In 'time' when you are fully pure, Source will instead join with you and reveal to you 'what it is, and what you really are'.
I hope you are ready...Darko (and everyone else reading this) THIS is the final dimension of time. I have Perfect Trust in you, because of the Perfect Trust given unto me. Even though ego is legion and many, Spirit is joined as One and Unlimited. You cannot fail in time, for you have already Completed everything Timelessly. We make a journey that seems unreal, yet one that is already done and fallen away.
Ok, here is the mediation...itself... I broke it into segments(symbolically of course) for it's easier to try. You can spend as much time on each segment as you desire. Though only a few minutes is necessary. (it's okay if you have to open your eyes in between each segment) Don't worry about a thing, I will be there with you as you join (as will everyone for that matter)
1. Go into your quiet mediation state, go within...
2. Then visualize a PERFECT Clear Light surrounds you.
This Light is Flawless, it goes on and on Forever.
3. The Light flows through your very Essence.
It feels warm, healing, and soothing.
All limits and blockages melt away.
4. An Alter appears before you. On it you lay down everything you think 'has to happen' in this world for you to be happy. All of your 'physical' goals...etc
5. The Alter disappears, and everything you laid down goes with it... and just for a moment, maybe it felt like you were giving something up... but really you are giving up nothing at all...
6. Then We disappear into the Perfect Light.
7. As we appear in God --not physically or mentally, but in Spirit, a 'level' beyond anything we have ever known...we blend as One, as Essence, as Energy. We are One with Infinity.
8. We feel so wonderful and grateful and 'say' these words to God. (say them out loud or in your mind)
"Father, I thank You so much for Creating Me to be exactly the same as You. You Created Me in Your Image--not as a body, but as You. There is no difference between Us in Heaven, for We are One. Thank You for providing for Me, thank You giving Me EVERYTHING. I know that I can never lose it, even if it appears that way, nothing here can ever be lost. Father, We thank you."
9. Then just get lost in the feeling of Perfect Love.
(don't think or focus on anything in particular, just flow with the feelings--do this for as long as you like)
10. When you are 'done' come back to the room where you think you are, and remember where you REALLY are--which is with God as One.
* * * * *
There you have it. After thousands of hours of research and meditation, I'll tell you straight up--that IS the most powerful one I've found. It'll get you home pretty darn fast. Just do that in the morning and evening for about 5 minutes or so and you will have exponential gain. I found that it even enhances the 'normal' QiGong exercises and mediation. You'll notice a dramatic transformation in your life, and you'll rapidly ride the 'upward spiral' (keep doing it)
As always, good luck in your training, and God Bless!
