Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation with commentary of three classic Taoist texts on immortality • Translates The Jade Emperor’s Mind Seal Classic, The Immortals, and The Three Treasures of Immortality • Defines the Taoist concept of immortality and examines the lives and practices of Taoists who achieved this state • Reveals the steps needed to achieve immortality in our modern society Taoist mystics claim that it is possible to achieve immortality: “Within each of us dwells the medicine to cure the affliction of mortality.” Now Western readers can access the wisdom of Taoist masters on the subject of immortality through the first English translations of three classic Taoist treatises: The Jade Emperor’s Mind Seal Classic; The Immortals, from the Pao P’u Tzu by Ko Hung of the Sung Dynasty; and The Three Treasures of Immortality, from the Dragon Gate Sect. The Jade Emperor’s Mind Seal Classic teaches that one can attain immortality through the cultivation of the three treasures of Taoism: ching (sexual and physical energy), qi (breath and vital energy), and shen (spirit and mental energy). Chinese history is sprinkled with accounts of individuals who applied the lessons of the Jade Emperor and lived up to 200 years. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of Taoism, martial arts, and Chinese history and culture, Stuart Alve Olson accompanies his translations with informative commentary that explains the historical context of the texts as well as demonstrates the practical applications of their teachings in contemporary life.

Download or read book 7 Element Lifeforce Healing written by Harry Elia and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 7 Element Lifeforce Healing is an eclectic healing practice that fuses ancient Taoist thought with modern alternative energy practices. The difference between this healing concept and many others is that the 7 Element Lifeforce Healing concept balances and fixes weaknesses, blockages, and miscommunications of the Lifeforce. What is the Lifeforce you ask? The Lifeforce is the underlying super intelligent energy that runs your body. To understand how it works, we must first ask the question, what runs your body? Most of you would say the brain, and you would be partially right. The brain does magnificent things. It uses the nervous system and the endocrine system to balance body levels and maintain homeostasis. However, even the brain does not have the capacity to run seventy trillion cells perfectly and simultaneously. Your liver produces over fifty thousand biochemicals and does over thirteen thousand biochemical reactions to the perfect micro-milliliter. Your body right now is doing hundreds of thousands of chemical and physical reactions simultaneously to the perfect amount. No matter how sophisticated your brain is, it does not have that capacity. So what is really running your body? To answer that question, let us take a simple flower as an example. We have all seen a flower grow around an obstacle, turn, and face its petals to the sun. How does it do that? It has no brain, no nervous system, and no muscles. How does it know what to do? All living organisms have an all-knowing Lifeforce energy. It is your Lifeforce that directs the physical tissue of your body to perfect function. A prime example of this is the body’s intestinal flora. There have been many recent medical studies about the balance of the bacteria flora of the intestines and the overall health of a person. What keeps the trillions of bacteria in line doing good things for the body? A few hours after death, if the body is out in the sun, it will swell and stink. The same bacteria that were doing positive things for the body when it was alive are now eating apart the body in death. Without the Lifeforce to direct and control the bacteria, it runs rampant. There was a very recent one-hundred-seventy-three-million-dollar study funded by the National Institute of Health and included two hundred eighty top scientists from eighty research institutions around the world. The final result of this enormous scientific study was that healthy human beings coexist with at least ten thousand different species of dangerous and pathogenic microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungus, etc.). The study goes on to postulate, and I quote, “It turns out that everybody harbors low levels of bacteria and other pathogens that are known for causing specific infections and diseases, but when a person is healthy, those bugs quietly coexist with benign or helpful microbes, perhaps being kept in check by them.” Or perhaps kept in check by their balanced and fully functioning Lifeforce. Lifeforce is who you are, and it is the all-intelligent energy behind the wondrous function of the body. If your Lifeforce is balanced, then the body will function to full capacity. Using Applied Kinesiology, the I Ching 7 Element Crystal concept, and thirty years of experience, I can detect imbalances in the Lifeforce energy. To date, we have had great success in treating and healing many difficult cases. Our best results have been with allergy elimination. Through 7 Element Lifeforce Healing, I have been able to eliminate environmental and food allergies, even serious peanut allergies, without drugs not by blocking the symptoms but by alleviating the cause, which is Lifeforce imbalance.

Book excerpt: A leading scholar feng shui master presents the great depth and diversity of Taoist philosophy, practices, and history in this accessible manual to the oft-misunderstood spiritual tradition. Millions of readers have come to the philosophy of Taoism thanks to the classics Tao Te Ching and the I Ching, or through the practices of t'ai chi and feng-shui, but the Tao is less known for its unique traditions of meditation, physical training, magical practice, and internal alchemy. Eva Wong, a leading Taoist practitioner and translator, provides a solid introduction to the Way. All of Taoism’s most important texts, figures, and events are covered, as well as its extraordinarily rich history and remarkable variety of practice. Sections include: • The History of Taoism traces the development of the tradition from the shamans of prehistoric China through the classical period (including the teachings of the famous sage Lao-tzu), the beginnings of Taoism as a religion, the rise of mystical and alchemical Taoism, and the synthesis of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. • Systems of Taoism explores magical sects, divination practices, devotional ceremonies, internal alchemy, and the way of right action. • Taoist Practices discusses meditation, techniques of cultivating the body, and rites of purification, ceremony, and talismanic magic. This roadmap to the spiritual landscape of Taoism not only introduces the important events in the history of Taoism, the sages who wrote the Taoist texts, and the various schools of Taoist thinking, but also gives readers a feel for what it means to practice Taoism today. A comprehensive bibliography for further study completes this valuable reference work.

Download or read book American Spiritualities written by Catherine L. Albanese and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reader explores current interest in spirituality in the United States. It traces the concept and presence of spirituality in the nation's past and explains the strong attraction to spiritual themes in the present, with attention to questions of definition, historical usage, and connection to religion. Twenty-seven selections pursue the difference and diversity among Americans in terms of their spiritual styles, here understood as modes of experiential knowledge. Catherine L. Albanese has organized these selections to reflect four approaches to spirituality: knowing through the body, or ritual-based spiritualities; knowing through the heart, or evangelical and emotionally toned spiritualities; knowing through the will, or prophetic and social-action spiritualities; and knowing through the mind, or metaphysically oriented spiritualities. Taken together, these essays make the argument that the spiritual is human-made, essentially religious, and surely not the same at all American times and places. The anthology includes selections by Catherine L. Albanese, Janet and Robert Aldridge, Daniel Berrigan, Joseph Epes Brown, Charles W. Colson, Annie Dillard, Virgilio Elizondo, Tamar Frankiel, Emma Goldman, Charles E. Hambrick-Stowe, B. K. S. Iyengar, Curtis D. Johnson, Martin Luther King, Jr., Chen Kung, Jerena Lee, Shirley MacLaine, Aimee Semple McPherson, Thomas Merton, Carry A. Nation, E. Burke Rochford, Jr., Jerry Rubin, Molly Rush, Starhawk, Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Trine, Joachim Wach, B. Alan Wallace, Steven Wilhelm, and Dhyani Ywahoo. Catherine L. Albanese is Professor of Religious Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. She is the author of the widely used textbook America: Religions and Religion, now in its third edition, and of numerous other articles and books, including Nature Religion in America: From the Algonkian Indians to the New Age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nectar of Non-Dual Truth (and its dedicated staff) are both delighted and privileged to bring our revered readership a further offering of Nonduality and Universalism in the noble spirit of interreligious unity and harmony. This gift, a blessing from the Divine Mother of the Universe, presents ingenuous and inestimable installments of dharmic teachings from the sacred traditions of Buddhism, Jainism, Sufism, Taoism, and Vedanta, with additional articles, clips, and key quotes about other paths and ways of inner contemplation in accompaniment. Of the many and remarkable subjects, tenets, and axioms that grace the pages of this issue of Nectar, perhaps ahimsa, nonviolence, takes precedence, and vies for the lion’s share of our attentions and consideration. Another important philosophical facet, that of time, corresponds subsequentially, for humanity needs more of this graceful quality in order to work out its tendencies towards harmfulness and realize the utter and ultimate futility of all acts of aggression.

Download or read book Greatest Kan and Li written by Mantak Chia and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-21 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully illustrated guide to the most advanced Kan and Li practice to birth the immortal spirit body and unite with the Tao • Explains how to establish the cauldron at the Heart Center to collect cosmic light, activate the Cranial and Sacral Pumps, and align the Three Triangle Forces • Details how to merge energy at the Heart Center to birth the immortal spirit body, allowing you to draw limitless energy from the Cosmos • Discusses the proper Pi Gu diet and herbs to use with Kan and Li practice • Reveals how to expel the three Worms, or “Death Bringers,” that can imbalance the three Tan Tiens, leading to misdirection in your sexual, material, and spiritual goals After mastering the Inner Alchemy practices of Lesser Kan and Li and Greater Kan and Li, the advanced student is now ready for the refinement of the soul and spirit made possible through the practice of the Greatest Kan and Li. With full-color illustrated instructions, Master Mantak Chia and Andrew Jan explain how to establish the cauldron at the Heart Center to collect cosmic light, activate the Cranial and Sacral Pumps, and align the Three Triangle Forces. They detail how merging energy at the Heart Center then leads to the birth of the immortal spirit body, uniting you with the Tao and allowing you to draw limitless energy and power from the Cosmos. The authors explain the proper Pi Gu diet and herbs to use in conjunction with Kan and Li practice and provide warm-up exercises, such as meditations to expel the three Worms, or “Death Bringers,” that can imbalance the three Tan Tiens, leading to misdirection in your sexual, material, and spiritual goals. Revealing the ancient path of Inner Alchemy used for millennia by Taoist masters to create the “Pill of Immortality,” the authors show that the unitive state of oneness with the Tao made possible through Kan and Li practice represents true immortality by allowing past and future, Heaven and Earth, to become one.

Download or read book The Magus of Java written by Kosta Danaos and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2000-06-01 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of John Chang, the first man to be documented performing pyrokinesis, telekinesis, levitation, telepathy, and other paranormal abilities. • The author, a mechanical engineer, provides scientific explanations of how these powers work. • For the first time, the discipline of Mo-Pai is introduced to the West. In 1988 the documentary Ring of Fire was released to great acclaim. The most startling sequence in the film is that of a Chinese-Javanese acupuncturist who demonstrates his full mastery of the phenomenon of chi, or bio-energy, by generating an electrical current within his body, which he uses first to heal the filmmaker of an eye infection and then to set a newspaper on fire with his hand. Ring of Fire caused thousands to seek out this individual, John Chang, in pursuit of instruction. Of the many Westerners who have approached him, John Chang has accepted five as apprentices. Kosta Danaos is the second of those five. In his years of study with John Chang, Danaos has witnessed and experienced pyrokinesis, telekinesis, levitation, telepathy, and much more exotic phenomena. He has spoken with spirits and learned the secrets of reincarnation. Most important, he has learned John Chang's story. John Chang is the direct heir to the lineage of the sixth-century b.c. sage Mo-Tzu, who was Confucius's greatest rival. His discipline, called the Mo-Pai, is little-known in the West and has never before been the subject of a book. Now, John Chang has decided to bridge the gap between East and West by allowing a book to be published revealing the story of his life, his teachings, and his powers. It will surely expedite what may well become the greatest revolution of the twenty-first century--the verification and study of bio-energy.

Download or read book QUANTUM HOLOGRAM TECHNOLOGY Applying the Welz Axiom of the Third Law of Quantum Hologram Mechanics written by Catherine P. Johansen, Ph.D. and published by Qi Press. This book was released on with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Part 7 of a series of Quantum Hologram Technology (QHT) books, is about the third Law of Quantum Hologram Mechanics applied to a set of identical, side-by-side Quantum Hologram Amplifiers (QHA). Something very interesting happens when you change or disturb the Quantum Field in one QHA. The Quantum Field inside the other adjacent QHA responds and changes to match the change made to the first one! Specifically this book examines the "Orgone" or “Chi Generator” designed, built and sold by Mr. Karl Hanz Welz. His basic model the “Ju 99”® is an example of a 3rd Law device. The device is an Active Solid State Device (ASSD) where one solid state iron and silicon based ORAC (ISO), the Monarch ORAC, is irritated by radio waves which in turn causes the adjacent (Subject) solid state iron and silicon based ORAC (ISO) to give off “pulsed Orgone” (out of a silver tube) as long as the Monarch ISO receives electricity. Next this book presents two types of "Active" standard Iron Walled ORACS (IWO) of Dr. Reich's design or Quantum Hologram Amplifiers (QHA) sets with different simulators inside the Monarch IWO. Then book presents an ASSD that does not require electromagnetic radiation or electrical inputs of any kind to irritate a Monarch IWO producing a substantial, constant Subject IWO output. The possible applications for such an Active Device – that does not require electrical or mechanical (force) inputs – are staggering... The associated Training Circular (TC- 427) for this book will be a DIY guide on how to build such an ASSD. Qi Press Version: 1.0 June 2020

Download or read book Immortality written by Stephen Cave and published by Crown. This book was released on 2012-04-03 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you could live forever, would you want to? Both a fascinating look at the history of our strive for immortality and an investigation into whether living forever is really all it’s cracked up to be. A fascinating work of popular philosophy and history that both enlightens and entertains, Stephen Cave investigates whether it just might be possible to live forever and whether we should want to. He also makes a powerful argument that it’s our very preoccupation with defying mortality that drives civilization. Central to this book is the metaphor of a mountaintop where one can find the Immortals. Since the dawn of humanity, everyone – whether they know it or not—has been trying to climb that mountain. But there are only four paths up its treacherous slope, and there have only ever been four paths. Throughout history, people have wagered everything on their choice of the correct path, and fought wars against those who’ve chosen differently. In drawing back the curtain on what compels humans to “keep on keeping on,” Cave engages the reader in a number of mind-bending thought experiments. He teases out the implications of each immortality gambit, asking, for example, how long a person would live if they did manage to acquire a perfectly disease-free body. Or what would happen if a super-being tried to round up the atomic constituents of all who’ve died in order to resurrect them. Or what our loved ones would really be doing in heaven if it does exist. We’re confronted with a series of brain-rattling questions: What would happen if tomorrow humanity discovered that there is no life but this one? Would people continue to please their boss, vie for the title of Year’s Best Salesman? Would three-hundred-year projects still get started? If the four paths up the Mount of the Immortals lead nowhere—if there is no getting up to the summit—is there still reason to live? And can civilization survive? Immortality is a deeply satisfying book, as optimistic about the human condition as it is insightful about the true arc of history.

Download or read book Virtual Realism written by Michael Heim and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-04-13 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtual reality has introduced what is literally a new dimension of reality to daily life. But it is not without controversy. Indeed, some say that a collision is inevitable between those passionately involved in the computer industry and those increasingly alienated from (and often replaced by) its applications. Opinions range from the cyberpunk attitude of Wired magazine and Bill Gates's commercial optimism to the violent opposition of the Unabomber. Now, with Virtual Realism, readers have a thought-provoking guide to the "cyberspace backlash" debate and the implications of cyberspace for our culture. Michael Heim offers a comprehensive introduction to virtual reality and a provocative commentary on its present and future impact on our lives. Heim describes the fascinating and important industrial and military uses of virtual reality, as well as its artistic and entertainment applications. He argues that we must balance the idealist's enthusiasm for computerized life with the need to ground ourselves more deeply in primary reality. This "uneasy balance" he calls virtual realism.
