There was, I believe, a terma cycle of Thangtong Gyalpo that included a long-life practice that used a bowl of ice water as a support. If memory serves me correctly, you first self-generate as White Tara, then do a certain number of accumulations of the action mantra. Then for the completion stage ...
You might be a bit too harsh on yourself, empting. The Buddha taught: There never was, there never will be, nor is there now, a person who is wholly blamed or wholly praised. I am to be blame for being naughty and does not listen to my mom Now I am unable to give her grandchildren because I like gu...
It happened to me that parts of the body turned suddenly hot. The left toe or the right ear. But this happened while reading. It was some syndrome of the nervous system but nothing serious. actually my teacher once told me that i kundalini awakening fails and only wake up one side i worry it will c...
I can relate. My wrongdoings in this life are severe. I have hurt my teachers, my parents, it's heartbreaking. When I was young I misused a position of influence and hurt a lot of people. Thankfully, I have several moments that I can recall where I did the right thing despite the opportunity to do ...
Yes. Everything is a matter of perspective. Yours, empting, seems to be very one-sided right now. It's not all bad. Everything is only like a dream. We are dreamers in a world of multiple perspectives. On a cloudy day you think the sun doesn't exist. I think, for every bad thought about yourself, y...

Often I ponder my death and realises that no matter what, I shouldnt die in regret But notably I have strong regret towards verbally insult my teacher and later on he decided to block me all over the places. I cant even utter apology to him anymore The second I regret is about my mother whom I alway...
I have mental illness During outbreak, I will think that everyone is scheming to harm me even the passerby I met. I believe he is sent to disturb me or to force me suicide. Even though some might not true but not all. Recently I have found out that many people is ganging up and form a group in order...
In this current world, everything has a standard. In business is measured by wealth, in religious life is measured by rank acknowledged by religious order. Here a man who has nothing, not wealth and not even wisdom. Simply a desire to end his suffering. A guru asked the same why he thinks he is suff...
Exactly. I suspect that it’s the way that the subtle centres balance themselves as concentration deepens. But it doesn’t matter even if that is right. Just keep doing the basic practice. This is one of the major differences between Buddhist and other forms of meditation. You simply note arising phe...
People throw phrases like 'activated kundalini' around far too freely without any grounding in the subtle body physiology it's based on. People also tend to confuse experiences, nyams and even dysfunctions of any of the various prana in the body for kundalini. Especially the upward moving prana. Wh...
I was a Christian escape to Buddhism to find comfort, from harmful ideas like hell, condemnation, guilt, I practiced Zen Buddhism just sitting, I felt good, until I read part of the Pali Canon, in which I mentioned hell, I was horrified I wanted to leave Buddhism, but I trust that they are only met...
I think I dont have compassion and always being hard to love people i feel the existence of humans is a mistake because they are suffering and create more suffering as human continues to be alive, they accumulate more bad karma instead of good one and causes more and more problems to the planet. whe...
i personally think that it should be paid but free for serious students if you give it all free, people will not be serious in learning and will turn your class into chaos by gossiping other students i have experienced this before, where people come to learn with a cheap fee but turn out coming to t...
