Astral Ecology and Internal Training

-

The Astral Plane (as far as I've observed) can be divided into 3 Big Vortexes. If you've been following my glyph projects and other notes.....you'll know there is so many different ways to divide these ethereal planes.....but in terms of the big ley lanes.....these are the following: 

Astral Big Vortexes
-Shapeshifting 
-Water Qi 
-Dark Realm  

 

I've worked a significant degree with Shapeshifting and Water Qi.....but only recently started the Dark Realm.....this energy is not approachable at all and even going into that space is dangerous...but as I've mined deeper and got more experience with the Astral Body....it slowly opened. 

I was actually forced to work with the Dark Realm recently, in order to push forward my healing process. My capacity to pass this kidney stone of karmic energy......was being inhibited by a lack of "internal flexibility" in my astral form. Via dark realm training, I was able to expand my channels and enhance the healing process. It was extremely difficult.......I've always admired liminal figures (Zatoichi...etc), drifters whom wander and dwell in the in-between and in order pass this karmic stone more easily, I needed to develop that level of internal flexibility. A painful threshold....but I was able to pass. 

Drifter Liminal Characters
-Zatoichi 
-Dalton (Roadhouse) 
-Leon (The Professional) 
-Jack Reacher 
-Odin 
-Ma Sougetsu (Kenichi Manga)  
-Beggar So (Drunken Master 1978) 

 

After-Life Options 

In the Christian tradition, the spiritual goal for the after-life, is get into Heaven and in Buddhism, you want to cease the process of reincarnation. I think it likely, that all of those goals are worth pursuit....but from my perspective, optionality, is also worthy. By this, I mean when you leave the body, there's more than a single pathway available. Know about Heaven, Hell, the Astral and all the idiosyncratic, nook and crannies of the planes and be able to move through them skillfully. To be fair....I have yet to reach this goal. The celestial is particularly difficult....as it requires high Mind Qi and there's a tendency of getting cooked....but I'm still working on hacking the pearly gates. 

The goal of Optionality, is also a natural progression of Wheel Sorcery......only your skillfully moving through "all the wheels".


Strange Astral

In my previous Astral Ecology blog, I noted how the astral body would "respond" to internal training in a variety of ways (ocean spinning, trees blooming...etc) and since that time, things have only gotten weirder. As you continue to train and cultivate the astral....entire complex ecosystems will pop up.....your internal ocean (EB), for example will have fish, sharks, squids, islands and all manner of astral forms that are a reflection of "you". Yet what makes this even weirder, is I've found that the closer you look at and work with these systems....the more you see how you can proactively cultivate these individuated areas to your benefit. For example......I was going through some really nasty emotional detoxing, that was completely beyond my capacity to process in short order.....so what do you do? Go into the ocean's ecosystem and look to develop properties for enhanced processing of negative qi and in this case, I was doing "Oyster" cultivation. 

Tis a surreal reality, as I learn and explore all these systems....working the 3 primary vortexes of the EB.....I've found it adds a general growth and ripple effect. For example, cleansing the Central vortex, refines the clarity and surface quality of the water. Work the ocean's deeper, Forbidden Knowledge center, all types of ancient and cosmic (Cthulhu like monstrosities) will start to show up, in your depths. Sigh....these systems are so friggin complex....its important to remember that the Astral Plane, is partly a reflection of the physical. Any kind of animal, stone, plant, berry.....a subtle version can be found and its properties enhanced for internal effects. I've only mentioned properties of the EB...... I could write infinitely on other ecosystems.....but even for me it is a bit High Strange....so I'll leave it there. 

Acid Trip News

A bit of tech, that I've been toying around with for several years now and is less practical and more just fun and interesting. The etherial planes (Astral, Celestial, Underworld) all have "stuff" happening in them....just like here in the physical realm. What I've gotten in the habit of doing, a few times a year, is summoning my HGA and asking him: "What's going on the other planes? Are there any Big Events happening or have happened lately?" 

The answers I've gotten from this practice.....wow....this section is labeled Acid Trip News for a reason. "News gathering" is cool.....but also gives insight into the other realms. Have fun.

Some time ago, I was doing landscaping work with a buddy of mine. All day we stood in the heat, pulling weeds from the ground, struggling with gigantic root systems. The owner left the yard unmaintained for a year......and mother nature reclaimed the land.  Anyways....there I was....shovel and glove....struggling to pull these cantankerous life-forms from the dirt and they were resisting with all there might. Stabbing, straining there roots.....they refused to yield. Here we are, human beings, at the peak of the food chain and ruling earth.....yet still struggling with fucking weeds!  It was an impressive lesson....as Malcom would say......"life finds a way". Mother nature's tenacity to "fight" and will to "survive" is extraordinary. Naturally, this is not something only in weeds......but in all species. The Martial Way is deep and extreme......this tenacity.....this will to live exemplified by the weeds, is an important "attitude" for both i...

Yesterday, I had a profound and torturous release. Laying in bed last night....internally.....my body started to vibrate.....only the intensity of this internal earthquake was beyond anything I'd ever felt before, Imagine a rip start lawn mower, that you try to pull 10k times but it won't start......then when you do finally get it on.....the force of all 10k "pulls" gets released simultaneosly. The vibrations were intense....to the point I thought I might explode and die.  The internal earthquake lasted about 10 minutes at peak intensity and I had to go outside and put my feet and hands to the ground to diffuse some of the power and stabilize my system. Suffice to say, this was a terrifying event and the most powerful psi phenomena I've ever experienced.  For those unaware, the last few years I've been ill and doing everything I can to heal. Cultivators rarely get sick.....but when karmic energies come up....no one is left unscathed. Suffice to say, this was a...

  Volume Tech This is a post for those whom are naturally "sensitive", "empathic" or have done a shit-ton of training and as a result....sense everything going on around them, without a means to parse. This is some tech to help control the "volume", so that it is easier to deal with both intense and day to day affairs. Three basic volume levels from lowest to highest. Shadow Point This is a energy center between the feet and is the lowest "volume setting" (as far as I'm aware). The basic idea is to anchor or tye your energy to this point so that you can control the volume and don't get "over-stimulated" by the amount of data your picking up on the subtle radar. The Shadow Point is the lowest volume setting and would personally use this for intense settings (violence, war-zone....etc) where you want to tightly limit data uptake. Root Chakra A very well know center, this is a slight increase/expansion in ...
