According to my calculations, the whole public forum is like 290k posts. Crazy to imagine that this thread is nearly 1/6 of it.

Yeah I had that idea before too. But it’d be slightly tricky to implement as we would need a consensus on skill points and how much each NFT has to begin with. In general, cool idea though.

Yep, seems interesting.
Public voting, redditocracy! Or find out on the way - “fuck around and find out”.
My favourite NFT gets all the points, that’s for sure.

Ooof… double whammy.
I hadn’t known much of either of them for very long. I had only started looking into magick in depth after settling in with the use of morphic fields here.
I’ve read and listened more to Pete than to Gordon, but I’ve appreciated their insights. I hope they have an afterlife that exceeds their hopes and expectations.

That’s a good one. Master Nan was a rare national treasure.
As far as I know he didn’t say it, but it’s a modern classic zen saying “Eat right, Exercise daily, Die anyways.” For better or worse, death eventually smiles at us all in one form or another. Although, if the immortal path is successful, it will end in light rather than just separating from the body.
But that’s the core of things. To focus on the basics and not to get carried away by side matters.
That’s an interesting forum. Perilous if you take anyone’s opinion too seriously. I used to visit there in a previous life, when just getting started with things. It was mostly a waste of time since people care more about their own opinions and clingings rather than getting to the truth of matters. But many lessons were learned through the school of hard knocks.
When I was a reader there, I focused more on logic, mathematics, and philosophy because I had to sort through the various opinions and mistaken views that people had. I was gaslit into not trusting any energetic perceptions that I had, so that seemed the only way to navigate things. And, step by step, I eventually was able to find immutable reference points to chart a course through energetic anatomy and the Taoist alchemical process.
It’s interesting… I’ve had a number of completion experiences in this last year. When looking on This site (the ES forum), I found a lot more extended energetic things. People didn’t really talk about teachings, they were all focused on getting something out of Dream with field projects. So I got to see different schools that people were drawing from when they created field ideas. It was a lot easier to jump through resources using natural intuition and the energetic sense of things. I was able to make more rapid progress with understanding the landscape and psychic/energetic terrain, though my perception is still a bit cloudy.
A key resource that I found early on (before any online engagements) was Leibniz. I liked him because he packaged Mystical and Christian ideas into a formal framework that would appear to be respectable to the standards of science that people like these days. But I drifted away when I dived into the Taoist things more deeply. He does that thing where we make true statements without giving a clear idea about what is going on in a real-world mechanical sense. So it was a working with ideas instead of direct experiental facts. I moved even further away from his works when I was here and navigating mostly by sense and intuition.
But, now that I’ve jumped through various mystical traditions, I have a better sense about how things are unified. And I am recognizing that I fractured my mind in places in the past in order to deal with a lack of information and a lack of clarity.
Although I was swearing off book buying, I’ve picked up a small Leibniz translation of the Monadology… it was an interesting homecoming experience. He was a consolation at the beginning of my journey because he helped me get a sense that energetic phenomena were not only real, but rational and amenable to scientific understanding. And all these years later, I can appreciate the many facets of his worldview. I have better knowledge of the Taoist tradition, the Siddha tradition, some of the Tibetan traditions, Mystical Islam, Kaballah, Buddhism from India, Thailand, China, and Japan, – various forms of mystical Christianity, as well as theosophy and other strands of western magick and mysticism. Here, at the end of so many years, I can appreciate the generality and abstractness of what he put together, because it has the scope to actually apprehend and systematize all the things I learned in these various traditions.
It’s neat… and fulfilling. But I am also at the limits of my working memory lol. I settle in on one-to-three traditions, and important ideas from others recede from my awareness for a while lol. Maybe one day I’ll write things down.
For now, I can see/feel how things fit together.
The Neidan process still sits in a unique place. Almost all traditions get their teachings from a type of channelled revelation. Even the later writings in Taoism (post- Lao-Chuang). But the Taoist tradition had a specific history where the being who delivered the message had completed their ascension on earth beforehand. So many other traditions will give unending visualizations, invocations, declarations, and whatever else. But the in-the-body knowledge is something of key importance and most don’t have it in an un-distorted form.
The 5-to-3-to1 only happens in stillness:
If the body is a prism, the light of the soul refracts in specific ways to animate it. It is the total turning around of the light that brings things to unity. The Hun, the Po, the Body, the Spirit, and the Immutable Thought or pure/true Will all need to be still and oriented correctly internally.
Getting clear about this helps to see how all traditions are related, and even how modern science may be harmonized with the understanding of things.
Anyways… random thought for today.

Me: So, can you please clarify? This is a lot.
Joe Dispenza: For sure! Space. In space, behind space, surrounded by space.
Me: …Right.
JD: And it’s in space.
Me: The space… is in space?
JD: Surrounded by space in space, yes.
Me: Uh…
JD: FEEL IT!

Yeah his “space” comments in meditations are a hoot! I hope you are enjoying the meditation 
A few years ago I would do one of his meditations every morning after yoga. They helped the workday immensely.
