Daskalos & the Researchers of Truth -

From the web site.

Daily Introspection Practice
Each night just prior to sleep (when your subconscious is more porous)
inhale and exhale in a 4:4 pattern and relax completely. (4 beats of the
heart during the in breath and 4 beats of the heard during the out breath)
Either lying in bed or sitting up (try not to fall asleep!) begin to recall the day
from start to finish. Review each event, each encounter, of the day and
with full impunity and leniency towards yourself and others ask yourself the
following questions:

What did I think or feel that I should not have thought or felt?
What did I not think or feel that I should have thought or felt?

What did I say that I should not have said?
What did I not say that I should have said?

What did I do that I should not have done?
What did I not do that I should have done?

The goal is not to scold (nor to praise!) yourself or others, but simply to
observe your activity and work to correct your behavior. With time you
will grow more accomplished at seeing yourself and will find that your
moral, spiritual and mystical life will accelerate in growth.

Mysticism is not an escape from this life, it is learning how to live fully while still in this prison. “Escape,” whether you call it baqa, moksha, nirvana, or some other word, usually comes after this life for those who are enlightened. Some might say “life is hell” and, in a figurative sense, they could be right. Even the most enjoyable lives have their share of sorrows, troubles and suffering. Spiritual life, while living it, is never completely liberated from all restrictions or fluctuations; it is, however, a great deal more fulfilling. The divine life is true liberation. It is freedom from our normal sense of limits. [quoted from my e-book on comparative mysticism]

One Hand Near One Hand Far Healing Technique.

One Hand Near One Hand Far is a very powerful healing technique developed by a chi kung master named Dr Zia Gang Sha. You can find more about him by clicking the tiltle of this entry and it will take you there. I posted this information a couple of years ago but I think it is time to do it again. Start by being aware of the lower dan tien. Move your awareness from lower dan tien to the laboring Palaces. If you have a place in your body that hurts or needs help place one of your hands, we will call this hand the near hand, about 4 to 7 inches away from the painful area. Point your first two fingers of that hand at the painful area. Imagine that energy is flowing from your lower dan tien to the Laboring Palace of the near hand. Then guide the chi from laboring palace out through the two pointing fingers into the area in your body being treated. This is One hand Near. Now take the other hand which we will call the far hand, and place it about 12 to 20 inches from your lower dan tien. Aim ...

Congratulations You Did It!!!

I say this to you my student/teacher/brother. You are of the Hawk and Crow People now. The Hawk and the Crow fly with you, now and forever. I salute you my brother. I salute your courage and determination. Congratulations. I celebrate and sing this song. My student/warrior/friend is out of the hospital and eating. His story can be found in my blog sections "When Pain Comes Try This." and "You Can Cower In The Corner Or You Can Stand And Fight." When he was faced with his own fear and pain and uncertainty he chose to stand and fight. When you must chose, chose to stand and fight. Remember we are never alone. Remember that and smile. He has passed one of his initiations with honor and pride. Many others are doing the same even as you read these words. Let all the warriors of the Heaven and the Earth who stand and fight with honor and determination give you courage and strength when you need it most. Remember, you are not alone and smile. A new adventure now opens to...

In Search of the Miraculous. Chinese Medicine

Remember, God treats you like you treat your lover. Being a good lover is the highest form of humanity as far as I am concerned.Sometimes being a good lover means letting go of each other. Such is life. Before I share the first chi kung exercise it is important to understand a couple of fundamental differences that separate Chinese and the western medicine. I am going to be a bit repetitious but as they say " Education is repetition." Western medicine understands and relates to a human being as a physical/psychological/social organism. Chinese medicine understands and relates to a human being as a radiating field of energy that exists in and as a series of interrelated fields of energy all of which exists in an all encompassing field of energy. A human being has a physical/psychological/social manifestation but the key in Chinese medicine is the energy field not the manifestations of the field. If the energy field is strong and balanced health will manifest. If it is not...
