I am Mak Jo Si (Jee Sifu) who is a professional in Chinese magic (sorcery) and exorcism etc., This site will be mostly introducing you the Chinese magic of Saam Law Sun Gung 三羅神功. We are also on YouTube's "Tin Yat Dragon" channel!
No matter its feng shui or Taoism and Taoist magic, you see the five elements and five directions all the time. You can spot this from my altar, the five directional flag, and its pretty cool looking sitting in my bucket of rice. What is the five elements supposed to be and what does these flags means or do? Here you will find out!
The five directions are actually the first most important energies that we use in magic and these are the preheaven energies that we are talking about here. The colors of these energies are actually explained in our theory of the 9 stars.
Here is a lecture of the five directional flags:
In Saam Law Sun Gung, we use these 5 direction flags to command energies, as if they are troops or soldiers. They are not soldiers, but it is a metaphor. To command energies around, you need a medium, a tool, and we have chose the flag in this case.
However, the flag does not just command any energies, it is programmed to command the cultivated energies inside our altar, which is all cultivated and trained, and not just "anyone". As you can see why the word soldier is nice for this metaphor. We cultivate preheaven energies at our altar everyday, and making them stronger than the normal energies you can find elsewhere. That is why you can do magic work with them and not just anyone can pick some "energies" or "chi" and be able to do magic. The flags are like a commanding device, like a remote control for your TV, and it is used to move the energies around, set commands and tell them to execute the work you want them to do for you.
The best way to look at it is that you have 5 camps of soldiers at the altar, and they are all differently trained and equipped. Every camp has their own strength and property, and so you must find the right guy to do the job for the best effect. It's a metaphor, but it makes it easier to understand and learn how to use the flag.
You can do any Taoist magic with these flags, such as exorcism, empowerment, luck boost, or even kicking your enemy's butt. The question is, are you ordained yet? Anyone can make or buy these flags, but it does not come with the power and methods. Without the power and the methods, the flags are nothing but decorative items. Without the knowledge and fully understanding their property, you will not be able to use them too. Therefore, you need a master, a person to teach and guide you to really master this art.
What is Tao Te really? When people say they have read the “Tao Te Ching”, most of them really don’t know what they are reading, because it’s very vague, and most importantly, very wrong. That’s right, most of the stuff you find on Tao Te Ching is garbage, because it leads you nowhere near what’s Taoism really is about, and it drives you to the cloud with nothing you can really grab in the air, because it’s wrong and misleading, then a bunch of people reheats the same pool of junks into new junks, and there goes the Tao Te Ching(s) today. Well, maybe it is time to take a look at what Tao Te really is about to see the difference between Taoism and “Taoism in the west”, shall we?
Tao Te is basically translated to “virtue” and it has nothing to do with Taoism on the surface, yet Taoism used this word Tao Te for a different and more specific meaning. To understand this, we need to know what is the Tao.Let’s take a look at the lecture below to understand what is the Tao. If you like the text version, check out the article on my blog – what is Taoism 101.
After this video/blog post, you will now know what Tao and Tao Te is about. It does not lead you to anything vague and abstract at all.
Now, how is this related to Taoism or the Taoist magic stuff then?Knowing the theory is cool, but how and where to apply it is what the westerners all don’t understand, and that is also why people came up with the “philosophical Taoism” category later on, because they don’t know how to apply these things, and that is why it is seen as a “philosophy” only.
The truth is, this is 100% related to the practice we do in Taoism and Taoist magic. The Tao we talk about in Taoism is the Yuen Sun (spiritual planetary body) of ourselves, and so to cultivate the Tao, we learn and do things to get stuff from the yuen sun to energize our life here. The Te part of the cultivation is to give back to the Yuen Sun and replenish the Yuen Sun by shoving it with things we can accumulate in this world.
Tao Te of a Taoist is not about being nice to nature and being a good kid, it’s about cultivating to learn and work with your own life, your Yuen Sun, your pre and post heaven side of “you”. By cultivating the Tao, the Te, you will be able to get more potentials out of your own Yuen Sun to increase your opportunities and potentials here in this world. At the same time, you will be able to make sure the Yuen Sun have replenishments and have more for you to take in the future when you need because you have given back to it on your normal days.
A good relationship with your own Yuen Sun is the key to having a healthy and balanced life, which also ensures your after-death life to be secured and happy. We want to live well, and also die well, shouldn’t we?Look at my video on the purpose of life, you might be shocked, Taoist does not aim to live long like those 200 years old human-jerky mummy!
Lao Tze seekers, Tao fans, Taoism lovers, you might want to see this video above to test and see if you really understand Taoism. This should be my best thumbnail for youtube video so far! Those non-matured people will scream, the fan boy of Lao Tze will cry, and everyone will start acting like crazy - because they cannot understand the real meaning of what Taoism or even the first page of Tao Te Ching is saying. You are stuck with your humanized perspective of things, and that is why you don't understand the truth to things today. I strongly suggest you watch that video above, and share it out to people who you think should also watch it to see what real Taoism knowledge should be about.
What is Shit? That is my first idea when it comes to thinking about a catchy thumbnail today. I have been talking shit in the video for almost 2 hours, and if you think I am joking, click and see it yourself, it's a serious, mature, and juicy talk of 1 hr 40 mins, just one man there, standing and talking with no pause. Some people say Mak Jo Si is a scammer because he don't follow what the normal Taoist do or say. Well, if you think so, look at this guy in the video, is he crazy or what, how come he have so much juice in his brain and still going on and on for so many years on YouTube? There got to be a reason why he is standing up huh? Talking for 2 hours is not easy, even 1 hr is not, but when you really know what you are doing, like some pro chef in cooking, they really can talk for that long without feeling stressed! That Mak Jo Si? Genius!
I have been trying to be blunt, honest, and just present people with what Taoism really is, but it seems that a lot of people cannot accept the truth, and they want the glossy, poetic, grammar-perfect, best-sellers approved kind of Taoism. Let me tell you one thing - when someone is dedicating their life to Taoism, the guy don't have time to learn so much about English or whatever language. A good taoist is not always a good poet or writer. Look at the chefs, or car technicians, or dentist. Once you dedicate your life to something and spend your whole life in it, you don't have that luxury to study other things. We are only human, we can only have 24 hours a day. Being a Taoist master, I really have to surrender to marketing, English grammar, and such. I tried my best to post something I know on YouTube and blogs, and I just wish people can read or watch it directly, enjoy it like a normal human to human talking video, not like a "promotion" that kick you to feel all jacked up and pump. You know those "yes man" kinda talk show? They make you super pump and super "enlightened" and turn out they really didn't teach you anything but just got people "moved" - because they are good at talking and doing that only. It's not my style. You want real Taoism? You come to me and it's bitter with sweet here, no sugar coating, no colorings added, no artificial flavor, like it or not, that's real food. You want your strawberry flavor and banana color coating stuff? Go elsewhere. I think if you are strong enough to keep watching the show to the end, you are good and qualified to start learning Taoism!
Taoism for beginners, what should a video with this title be about? I was thinking about what to present to a beginner or a newbie who want to dig into Taoism. I guess it's best to tell them to truth! BANG, and I opened the video like a canon, splashed out strong word and blast their brain apart, now you feel and know what Taoism really should be like. Many people are trying too hard, searching in bookstores, and let me tell ya how hard it is to have your stuff on the shelves of these bookstores. I wnat my stuff there too, but it just seems like a dream to me. I have many things to write and say, but still cannot do it yet. Do you think real Taoist can be an author for those books? If you see people doing books there, probably these so called masters are really having some luxury time aside from their real cultivation. Applause. I really don't have the talent to be a best-seller-author kind of Taoist, to be honest. I hope my video can open people up more with these straight, blunt, and to the point knowledge / talk show. Enjoy and feel free to share it out! If you want to learn under our lineage, e-mail us right away and don't try to go through all my materials, because you don't learn anything for real without real communication. Email and start talking, that's the best way to start!
Many people start to do research on Taoism online, and they end up with a bunch of Tao Te Ching, some blogs with people writing about things that sounds just like another version of another blog, rephrase and reworking of other people's interpretation of some theories. The problem is, no matter how far you go in this research, you often end up in a conclusion of - philosophy Taoist or the western people don't believe in any God or deities in Taoism, but somehow all the Chinese Taoism you see are "praying" to something and they are doing rituals and such that is very "goddish" looking, so what is the deal? Are the westerners being just fed with something like "Chinese buffet"? Some chap-sui (Chinese food that Chinese never eat in their real culture) marketed to the west? Well, here you will find out about the real thing and what it's all about.
Yup, the video above will tell you everything, but we will continue typing here, because it's a blog, and we want some visitors to read too! Let's talk about - which one is the real thing!
To be honest, Taoism is Taoism, and it has never been seen as "philosophy" or "religious". Just like martial art is martial art, even there are some "philosophy martial artist" out there who only like to talk more than fight, at the end of the day, it's a system that teaches you about fighting and applying theories of fighting to life. Taoism is Taoism, and if you are in Taoism, you should be at least knowing what TAO the word means. I have written a nice article here - https://www.tinyatdragon.com/blogs/spiritual/what-is-taoism
Sum it up in short, the TAO is not "the way" and not "the way of nature". If you put a "subject" to it, you are already wrong, because TAO is a principle, or a concept, or some kind of pattern, and if you can understand the pattern, now you will understand what can be categorized as "TAO" in something, and understand the workings of it. TAO means "one drop of essence that give birth to a focus or destiny of a universe or system", just like your intention of your mind can also be the TAO of yourself. A father can be a TAO of the family. The boss can be the TAO of the company. Without the TAO, it's like a human without the head, it won't move, and will not be the same anymore.
So does Taoism believes in God or Gods or Deities? On the surface, if you do not understand it, you might think it is all about "those" movie style gods and deities, even the word for God is everywhere. In fact, it's not. It's just because most people misunderstood the meaning of these words, and the misunderstanding grew bigger as time goes on, leading to more illusions, and more misunderstandings. Yes, there are spiritual stuff and there are other worlds and dimensions, or even "beings" out there, but we do not do any praying, worshiping, offering, and such to any entities and stuff like that in our religion, or lineage. Maybe some other lineage does, but we don't.
The word for God, SUN 神 is referred to as the power of things, like how the power of human is be able to think, move, and do things, create things. We intake essence, essence generates energy, and energy generates power. Essence is like food, air, water, etc. Energy is everything that came out after digesting the food, it can be anything from physical matters to spiritual energies of the food. Then because of these things, your energy pumps up and you can do things, and there goes the power of your body. It's so simple, and so direct, yet people don't get it. This is the Jing, Hei, Sun theory 精氣神, yet most people want to believe or thinks that this is like 3 "solid" substance, like finding blood, bone, exygen, etc. If you try to catch it like a noun, you got it all wrong. It is not a certain subject or noun, it's a categorizing word, and it's explaining things that happen in patterns, like how laws are doing it with their law books, no subject is set, but anything that falls in this condition can be equal to this word. The more you learn in Taoism, the better you know how to categorize it into different types of essence, energy and power, and it gets very "mad science" in the real deal knowledge side of things.
You might think that the things you have been reading online, Tao Te Ching and such never mentioned about gods and deities, and what is going on with the Chinese side with all these "Taoist priest" and such? I cannot speak for those, but I can tell you that at least for my lineage, we do not pray or worship anything, and our altar is for doing magic work, not to pray and worship anything. It is a device for saving and cultivating energies into essences, and so we can use the essence in the future for what we need to use it for. The word SUN (for God) in our dictionary is all about "that" SUN we talked about in the passage above, and not the Gods and stuff you might be thinking of. At last, watch that video above, and you will know better!
I have to make this video and article on Wu Wei, because it is one of the most important "search term" on this subject of Taoism. So many people searching for it, and how can we not have a good explanation of the word in this blog and my official blog?
Wu Wei, most people get it as "not doing is doing" or the "no-doing" theory, like don't do is better than do, etc. It is not the case in our lineage and not the case in our dictionary. You might not like my explanation, but at least here you can watch my video and make your decision wisely, and choose which version make more sense to you. What make sense to me is - Taoism is about nature and everyday life, you should be able to witness the theories in your EVERYDAY LIFE such as eating, pooping, and doing homework, or watching YouTube. You don't need to just look at the sun, grass, rivers and all that "nature". Our life is nature, because human is part of nature. If you think nature is just about the greens and water, your world is for sure being clouded, and you are not seeing the full picture. Yourself is part of nature, the chicken you eat is part of nature, and so is YouTube, so is computer, and your phone. Human is part of nature, and how can human's creation not part of nature? Science is also part of nature too.
What is Wu Wei? Wu Wei is simple, and you can sum it up as - do your part according to what you are supposed to do and push out your product for the next in line to continue. The same theory is happening everyday in your organs, and if they fail to do so, you get sick or feel bad and ill. Your mouth is done chewing then it goes down the throat and then your stomach takes the product and continue doing it's work. If your mouth tries to be the stomach or the stomach tries too hard and not giving it to the intestine, your system will smoke up and go crazy. Simple theory, yet many tried so hard on those vague and poetic stuff out there that cannot even be anything close to what happen in nature and reality.
If your boss tell you to draft 2 emails to an important cient, tell him you are on your Taoist groove and doing wu wei method for this email, you are doing it by not doing it, let's see what happen! Seriously, people don't understand that those vague stuff out there is not even what you see in reality, and it doesn't work but only give people an "escape to reality", making it totally useless. I call that kind of theories - illusionary theories. It has nothing to do with nature and real life, and real life don't work like that! Human is nature, and our everyday life is, and so is your car and your job and everything that you see in front of you. If you think cars are not part of nature, then why it exist in nature? Everything that exist in this world is part of nature, because nature contains them.
Watch my video on Wu Wei and see it yourself. To me, my version make much more sense and at least is what I teach to my disciples. I always say, accept reality and don't believe in illusions. If the theory is real, just like gravity, you see it happen everywhere, and is never a "concept" that cannot be seen in your life.
We have talked about the 3 realms and 9 bodies before, let's dig into this "magic body" we got in dimension one, which we call a 法身 "Faat Sun". We cannot touch this dimension, and you cannot detect it with any physical science, yet we got this energy form body in another dimension that is parallel to ours here. We call this the pre-heaven dimension, the number one dimension of the nine dimensions we live in right now. Our physical body, is in what we call dimension 8, the Yang dimension. What's so cool about this Faat-Sun or magic body, is we all have one, and we need one to stay alive. The center of the faat-sun is called the magic-heart, or faat-SUM 法心. This is where all our "brain power" or you can call it memories and subconsciousness etc. Whatever it is, the power of being able to feel, receive, store, and start any sorts of thinking. You can compare this to your computer's CPU and hard-drive and such. Without it, you cannot operate. Your body can be very strong, but if this body in D1 (dimension one) fails, you are going to die too. Muscles and flesh is not everything, and many people die suddenly without any explainable reasons too.
Wait a second, if you have not heard of our 3 realms and 9 bodies theory, DO NOT continue reading. Watch a lesson video first!
I tried to make it easy to understand, but it's hard to 'draw" those fancy pictures like the one above, and so I tried my best to illustrate with a wooden dummy, this is how our Faat-Sun magic body look, and basically it is about the same or approximate with everyone's body.
The weird and hard to imagine part is - it is NOT a circle or ball or sphere but more like an egg or oval structure. See all the diagram...!
Kind of like a bull's eye target...!
Put your palm in front of your chest and stick the fingers pointing outward, the tip of your finger marks the border of the faat-sum (magic heart).
This is our map with the DLT Daai Law Tin 大羅天 structure, the original space of nature of how and where it all started. We will talk about this in the future.
Looking down from the head...
Spread your arms open and you see how wide it gets.
For your reference, this is the DLT map in our lineage.
The Faat-Sum or magic heart is very important, as it is the main energy that keeps us alive, operating, and it is a center power that makes us feel and sense things. The Faat-Sun magic body, is part of the big storage and helps us stores or retrieve memories, feelings, etc. The whole system is also operating like the DLT space, with the upper part corresponding to the Tin Law, bottom part corresponding to Dei Law and the center part corresponding to the Daai Law in the center. Everything start from the heart, or center, and it goes downward through the back, circulates downward, to the front and back up, then to the heart again, and then finally to the face and top of the head. After it is done at the top of the head, it circulates back down from the spine and repeats.
As you can see, energy flows from the heart first and down, the place of where our brain locates, is actually one of the last station! We do not think with the brain, we think with the heart first. We feel, sense, and think with the heart, and after all the long trip, the energy flows to your brain and NOW your brain process it and put it into human logic and such.
With this "track" of how the energy flows, you can see that when your heart gets a feeling, it passes down the back and to your lower spine and loop back up, which reaches your sexual organ first. That's also why most sexual addicts are always dumb and numb. They react by "feeling" only and does not process their action before doing it, and most of the time, that is how rapist acts. After their stuff is done, the logic kicks in, and their brain start to go crazy. To live a life in this world, you must use your brain to process your feelings before doing anything. It's not that your feelings or the "heart" is a problem, it's because you have never learn to cultivate your heart. We only cultivate our "brain" all the time by learning new things, going to school, and trying to stuff in more and more skills and knowledge everyday. After all, we have never cultivated our "heart" before, how can we even cultivate this heart and make it a smart-heart instead of a crazy and dumb one?
When I tell my disciples, "use your heart to learn and not your brain to learn". I mean it, when you (disciple) listen to my lecture, or read my email, what is in your "heart" that you don't understand right after the lecture is done? Not when your brain process and "think" about it, but right off the heart, what is really in your heart? I don't know why, but many disciples fail to do this, and I can only see a few really doing it properly. How hard is it to NOT think before you ask a question?
When we talk about this "use your heart" issue, it is the HEART of the D1 body, the Faat-Sum. How do you use your heart? Not many can tell you exactly how, but I can.
Be like a kid, act before thinking, say before processing, feel and not ponder, react and don't fear. That's the best I can put it. If you want to learn the magic, you need to start to learn how to be a good disciple - by using your heart often. In this society, we are often told to NOT do this, and we are all raised and taught to "use your brain before you take action". That's right, even your mom and dad can be a big discouragement of this "use your heart" method, because they can be scolding you since you were a kid about this issue. Why do you ask so many questions? Did you not learn to think and process before you ask? Always why why why why why why, when will you stop?! Parents are always annoyed by this type of "true heart questioning". As a contrast, we value and treasure it in our lineage. If you want to learn, roll back and be a kid. I mean it, say anything you think is stupid, it's fine, let yourself feel and react, not to process and ponder and then come out with a "processed answer/question". That is the only way you can learn magic, properly. You listen to something I say, you don't get it, you say you don't get this, and what you don't really understand etc. With this type of questioning, you will expand a lot of possibilities in your learning experience, and you will let me have a chance to instantly react and give you many answers, which save you time and also helping you to avoid banging into obstacles.
Only a crappy master fear questions, a good one should not! Any amount of question is fine, as long as it is from your heart.. and yes, we can feel it right away. Heart to heart conversation is priceless, but how many can do it without trying too hard on being polite, being 'mature sounding', being 'adult', being smart-sounding and such? We are all raised to process information and then say whatever you want to say. This is no good for learning magic, and also a bad thing for "doing" magic too. It's one of your biggest obstacles - because you are stuck in the post-heaven "brain" section.
Magic is all about the pre-heaven energies and connecting back to the pre-heaven dimensions. If you are stuck with your post-heaven brain here, you will never get it, and you will never learn well. Release yourself from your restriction, forget about everything you worry about, just spit it out, be free, and be yourself, use your heart and don't use your brain. This is the way to success in your journey of learning magic.
A little sneak peak about my next article - how magic power is inherited and passed on by using this magic heart of ours? Why direct and private teaching is better than group teaching if it is the same content that you are getting at the end? Why can't you learn from books and videos without a master? I will reveal you the total secret later and you shall know! It's all related to our D1 magic body, the Faat-Sun 法身 and our magic heart "Faat-Sum" 法心.
Chi versus magic, that's right, you have landed on the right post and these photos are not misplaced. Why did I bring out the high pressured air tanks and such? Well, let's take a close look at the handpump gauge at the bottom, do you realised that we have a PSI / bar reading?
The "bar" or psi is the pressure of the air inside the tank, or pump, or anything. Just like our tires on cars and bikes, they all require some specific pressure to keep those tires hard enough to do what they are supposed to do.
I have heard a lot of people on YouTube and forums saying the same thing - "Chi, qi, magic, energy, psychic power, whatever it is, it's the same thing but different names."
Wrong. It's not.
Let me put the same kind of theory on another subject, see if you can spot the flaws? "Marry, Susan, blond, black, or Chinese, it's all just like your wife thing just different names." Seriously, any human being that has boobs is your mom or wife? Don't think so.
Another example here, "Nitrogen, Oxygen, Air or whatever it is, it's the same thing, but different name, just "gas" in different names." Can we use propane in an air tank and tell the divers to go down the ocean with that tank attached to their mouth? Have fun smelling propane down there my friend, it's the same thing just different names. You need to be open minded, and you will be feeling the same. (LOL!)
I pity those people who do not understand what "Chi" is and really think that "Chi" is that simple. It's not that simple my friend. You cannot do magic with Chi Kung out there, yet magic works with Chi as well. What is this all about? It's time to dig into the subject. Chi vs Magic, what's the difference?
In the past, we have talked about the 3 realms and 9 dimensions, if you have not heard of this theory yet, feel free to read the post or watch the video first:
After we have learned about the different dimensions, you will know that there are 3 main dimensions that things stays and exist, which we call the D1, D6, D8. The energy we produce after concentrating and thinking, is in the D9, which is what our body in D8 generates.
The energy we use for magic, is D1 to D9 combined, which is what allows us to do things to all dimensions, including overriding what is already in our D1 right now.
Chi Kung's energy, and also the energy that Chinese medicine deals with, is the D6 elements. Which we call "Ling Jee 靈子". The theory behind herbal medicine, is not any science lab proven ingredients, but is the D6 elements' property inside the herb, which human can consume and it will have effects on us. These D6 elements is quickly felt by us, and affect our physical health, which is why chi kung and Chinese medicine works.
The western science, which most people are educated to think that this is the only "truth", is only working in D8 and D9 zone, and so they cannot really touch anything in the other dimensions. Science proofing "chi kung" is legit is all just a smoke screen, because they can never touch the "real" chi energy. Nothing in this world can detect or touch "chi", because it is in another dimension, which you cannot see or detect.
As you can see, in order to do magic, you need a form of cultivated energy that consist of D1 to D9, combined, and now that is the magic power that we are using. Just having D1 is not enough, and human cannot touch their D1 body anymore, because we are born as a post-heaven being, and we are cutoff from the D1 to D5 permanently, yet we are still being fed and nourished by them daily. It's like flowers, after the flower grew out, it can never see or touch the roots in the ground anymore, yet the stuff below is feeding it and keeping it alive daily. We are just like the flower above.
Where and how do you get energies that consist of D1 to D9 together, combined? This is what we call the energy outside of our own universe limit, getting it from the raw and most original space, which is the origin of our lineage's magic power. These energies are not "raw" for us, because we will need to cultivate to combine the energies from D1 to D9 with our daily work, and by "assembling" and "cooking" energies, there goes the "magic power" that we use. As you can see, the energies we use in magic is a cultivated and condensed or crystallised form of energy, and it is not just D1 or D6 or D8 elements.
Chi we use and work with in Chi Kung cultivations (stuff you used to know out there) are all working with D6 energies and D8 energies. That is why it can benefit your health, because it's just like the energies we are using from herbal medicine, D6. Can you use D6 to do any magic (in our lineage)? Of course, NOT. This is just a D6 energy element, how can you operate a 200w light bulb with this small battery? It's not going to even light up a bit.
Just like the air tank theory, if you have loose air or low pressured air, like 10-20 psi, you cannot shoot a pellet out of a rifle, it's not going to push the pellet anywhere. The magic we use is like high pressured air, and we need to keep pumping and pumping daily to make this high pressured air too. When you use magic, you are using those 3000psi sort of pressure to fire out your magic cells, it just cannot be done by the 20psi range or even 200psi range air.
Now, we are not saying that chi kung sucks and magic is the best. You need to understand that we also need low pressure air for tires and other things in life. While high pressured air is powerful, you cannot inject 3000psi into your car tires and make them 3000psi, it will explode. Everything is good when you use it for the right purpose, but when used wrongly, it will be disastrous.
While chi kung cannot do any magic, but in magic, or at least in our lineage, we have chi kung that is used to develop your magic power. You cannot do magic with chi in chi kung, but we have special chi kung that works with your D1, D6, and D8 body. This can only be done IF your body is attuned, so that you can actually touch and interact with your own D1 body. A normal person cannot touch their D1 body, and so doing chi kung will not get them anywhere close to the effect we have. The most that you can do is to move around the energies in D6 only - if you are in luck. D1 is a pre-heaven dimension, and it requires someone and something to attune you through, so you can connect and touch things in this dimension. Without the proper attunements, chi kung cannot touch the D1.
So what is the chi kung in our lineage? Chi vs magic cultivation is a very interesting topic, we will dig into this later on and introduce some of our chi kung for you to get a sneak peak of what it is like. Right now, let's watch another lecture on Chi vs Magic and see if this will clear up more for you.
What are the biggest obstacles for people learning magic or chi kung or whatever stuff that we are talking about in this blog? Be it chi kung or magic, it's the same theory, and you are all going to bang into this problem for sure. The biggest obstacle is - we all try to use science to explain it, and then try to find "scientific" evidence that can proof our stuff, or use science devices, to try to relate or prove the existence of "chi" or magic power, etc. This is the dead-way for you if you keep digging into the subject in this direction, because this is the wrong direct to go.
Science is great, but it is like saying a screwdriver is great for fixing your house, but you cannot use a screwdriver to fix a kid's bad behavior. Well, you can, if you screw him in the head, but it doesn't work that way all the time, maybe.
You cannot test, measure, and proof everything with science, because science is a subject that specialized in what we call the dimension 8 matters, the physical matters. What we mean by physical here, is anything that we can feel, see, touch, and such. Science cannot measure the love you have for your wife, or husband, but we all know it by "heart" without the need of saying it out. If your love can be measured, it's for sure not true love. You see the point here? Science is not the tool to use to measure or detect or prove something that is in the pre-heaven state, which is just like our love and feelings. Science will totally "screw you up" if you keep digging into these things with scientific methods.
When we talk about supernatural stuff, paranormal stuff, just like how those "ghost adventure shows" are always doing, they take out some devices and claim to spot ghosts or spirits using a detector or whatever garbage they got from radio shack. It's crazy, and it's non-sense, because you cannot detect a ghost or any spirits using any machines you can make in this world, no matter how advance our science goes. The fact is, these things cannot be touched or detected using the materials of this dimension we live in. In order to touch and see or feel them, we need to use something that is not restricted to this dimension, such as our "heart".
Magic power or "chi" in chi kung is not detectable by any scientific method, and yes, there has been some shows on YouTube saying that they have proven the existence of "chi" with science and such. Like it or not, but those are all just detecting "symptoms" of chi, and not chi itself. Chi cannot be detected, because it is not "heat", not "electromagnetic field", not anything close to what you can find or name in this world. It's not it. All those things you can detect are like the "aftereffect" of chi being used only, and not even the real Chi being detected at all. We can see the symptoms, or the end result that is shown in this world, but we cannot directly "see" or "detect" Chi. Just like saying, I can look at the colors and condition of the sky now and tell you how the pre-heaven chi is like at the moment for our city, but it is not like you can take some machines and start comparing the results, then take out some "chi graphs" and say you can detect it. It's not possible, no matter how advance science goes.
In order to learn magic or chi kung properly, you need to not ditch science, but put science aside for what it is supposed to be for. What you need is to "feel" and learn the magic or chi kung using its system and only its system's knowledge. By going through a proper and formal training under a "legitimate" master, you will learn what it is, and eventually be able to know what it is, because just like love, you can feel and know it already, and there is no way to show or say it out in words. That is EXACTLY what chi or magic is like. They are pre-heaven matters, and you cannot use anything physical to show or demonstrate it, but they are there, and you can use it, and they will have effects on you which you can feel - while no science can explain it to you, because it is just not touchable by any physical devices.
Magic is just like love, it is not explainable by words, but it is real as steel. Any magic that can be proven by science is fake magic, because it is no different from saying love that can be put into words and expressed by your mouth, it's for sure not a form of true love. When the love is very real, there is no way you can explain or say it out. It's in our heart, just like magic, it's in your heart, stored there, and operated there. What heart? The heart of your dimension one body, the Faat-Sun 法身.
Why your faith is very important in magic? Well, why is it very important to have trust and faith in your wife if you want the love to keep going? If you don't trust and have faith with your wife anymore, the love is also going to die. Same to magic. Remember guys, trust and faith is a must, in order for magic to work. IF you don't trust your magic, your magic will just react like how you don't trust your wife anymore... it's going to fail soon or later!
One big secret ingredient that most people are missing when it comes to Taoism, or magic, or whatever related to these things, are the proper guidance of how to start and where to start learning. If you do not get the "structure" right, nothing behind seems right, it's basically because you are reading the book from the middle or from some random pages and not the beginning to the end. You cannot just pick a page out of the book and expect to read and understand everything. That's not how you learn things in this world, right? Today, I will introduce this theory of the three realms and nine bodies to you, which might open your eyes up to something you might have not heard of before. It's deep, and it will require more than one lesson to understand, but I will try to make it short. There is also a video lecture at the end if you like to watch it for further details.
First of all, we say that human beings have three different things in three different realms, and that total up to nine bodies, or nine things. Just like our physical body that we can see in the mirror, and there is always something you cannot see that is inside - which is your organs. You can say that you don't believe there is a heart, a bunch of intestines, and some ugly gloopy inside your body, but that's basically how it is inside. Just because you never cut yourself up and analyze it, it doesn't mean that these things inside does not exist. The stuff inside your body is NOWHERE near what's outside too. Isn't that crazy?
What are the three realms? Tin 天, Dei 地, Yun 人are the three realms. Most people refer it to "heaven, earth, human", which is a really bad translation. It's not even about any "heaven", it's about the three realms theory in my other lecture, that talks about the principle of nature and the 3 stages of creation of all things. We basically call it dimension 1 for the Tin, dimension 6 for the dei, and dimension 8 for the yun. 1,6,8 are the three completion stage of things.
Our physical body is in the Yun realm which is dimension 8.
Our spiritual soul body is in the Dei realm, which is dimension 6.
Our spiritual planet body is the Tin realm, which is dimension 1.
In every one of these, there is also their own 1,6,8.
Dimension 8-1, we have an energy field body which we call a Faat-Sun 法身.
Dimension 8-6, we have an energy particle form body which we call a Ling-Sun 靈身
Dimension 8-8, is the physical body here that you can see now.
Our brain doesn't think, it is only a physical container, or a physical engine, for the energies of the Faat-Sun to operate. The Faat-Sun stores the main energy of our consciousness, the mind power, memories and such are all inside the dimension 8-1 body. The Ling-Sun is the processing brain power, which helps to ponder, back and forth, between dimension 8-1 and dimension 8-8 to process information. When we think, it is the 2 other bodies that works, not your physical brain. You can say it's like your brain waves and such that is working, not the physical thing that is working. The physical thing is the container of the energies only, but it's the energies that work, not the fluid inside the brain.
Dimension 6-1, we call it the Saang Wun or the birth soul, which give birth to things.
Dimension 6-6, we call it a ling wun, which is your spiritual soul that moves and travel.
Dimension 6-8, we call it the Sei Wun, or death soul, which is what push things to the death line.
The soul in dimension 6-6 is also consisted of 3 parts, which we call it tin wun (soul-celestial), yum wun (soul mental), and yeung wun (soul-physical).
These souls are helping the soul body to operate and bring things from your spiritual planet and down, or from you and back up to the planet form.
Inside Dimension 1, which is the most hard to understand part, we got a spiritual planet.
Dimension 1-1 is the essence energy or the core energy of the planet, which we call Juan Yuen, meaning your real essence 真元.
Dimension 1-6, is the ling yuen 靈元, which is the non-physical planet form, and this planet will bring the essence energy down to the ling-wun (6-6) too
Dimension 1-8, is the yuen sun 元辰, which is a physical planet. This planet is the final result of dimension 1-1 to 1-6 and now showing up on 1-8 in a solid form.
The dimension 8 bodies are inside the planet we live in right now, while the dimension 6 soul body is out in the far edge of planet earth, like the place where the highest point of our atmosphere is. Then the dimension 1 body is all in the area around where the sun is right now. You cannot physically travel there to see it, because they are in different dimensions, and you cannot see them using your physical body or matters. Just like you cannot see your organs by using your eyes.
When we sleeps, our body in dimension 8 will process things to the 8-6 energy particles, and they will be shot up to the soul body 6-6 to process upward to distribute some of the stress and crap from ourselves to the planet in 1-6. This 1-6 eats it and digest the crap for us, and push out some of its energy back down through 6-6 to our 8-6 and back to the system here. This is a natural way of how human beings can relief stress and crapnergy they picked up throughout the day. Just like how we can use breathing to detox ourselves and such. However, just using what we are born with is not enough, just like you cannot just live a life by not being proactive to bring food into your mouth, just using what you are born with is going to make you die in no time. In order to survive, you need to do MORE than what you are born with. Face the reality guys, we don't walk around naked, we put on clothings! Who is born with clothing over the body?
People don't understand that we need to use more effort in order to earn our life here. When we talk about not using something you are born with, people think it's not "natural" and it's not good. If you think about it, your shelter, your clothing, and food, are all not "naturally born with" elements in your life too. We need to take and consume elements on this planet if you want to survive in this planet. That's life! If you just try to detox and stuff by using this natural method, you are not going to make it, and that is why many people are just being driven and controlled by energy pollution in this world. Their minds are never themselves, because they are always being influenced more than being able to drive their car themselves. A lot of people are followers, or they just listen to what people say and don't really have the power to use their own "brain" to think.
I am not saying that you should not listen to others, but at least earn the rights to control your mind, and be able to process things and make your own decision is better than the decision is being concluded by other people. That's also why we practice magic, because at least now you know all the stuff you are trying to process in your brain is your own work, and not a work done by all these pollution around you anymore.
Many people talk about the five elements, but not many understand the words for real. When you listen to someone's lecture or reading someone's material, you can easily tell if they really know it or not. The first thing is, what is the five elements cycle about? If they refers to real physical gold, water, etc., you know it's all going to be wrong int he next step and onward. This is the first big red flag. The water element in any nature's principle is not about the physical water that we drink or see. Water is a concept, and yes physical water is a form of water element, but it is not what the element principle is referring to.
Another thing you want to know is, when we talk about five elements, there are actually more to it, and there is also a set of pre-heaven five elements which we mostly ignored or don't know of. This is 氣,雲,水,雷,火, which is energy, gathering of energy, transmitting of energy, thundering of energies, and activating the energy and BAM something is created. Maybe it's better to view my lectures on YouTube to really get the hang of this.
Anything in magic we do can be decoded, or explained. Now I will open you up more by putting up a humorous yet informative lecture on my YouTube channel of Tin Yat Dragon. If you have not subscribed to it yet, it's time to do so, because we release fun lectures and informative videos everyday!
That's right, everything can be decoded down to the last bit of details. Why our handsigns in magic is like this, and why not like that? Why touch the nail and why touch the meaty part instead with this or that finger? Everything can be explained. It's not just because someone does it that way then we follow it that way, it's all because of how our body works with the energies within us, and it is no difference from saying because our eyes sees and can receieve the energy of light, and that is why we don't put our ears over something when we want to "see" it. It's just all nature's principle of how our body works and how we can utilize our body to communicate with the pre-heaven elements using our post-heaven body. It's the science, maybe you can call it the science of supernatural? To me, this is science already, because it's just so scientific to me. Not only that we are doing it, but everyone does it in this pattern in the world, naturally, just that you cannot output "magic power" and I can, because we cultivate our energies and you don't.
Why can't you do magic without getting into a lineage? I think I have talked about it before. Maybe it's time to post a link to my not-yet-published video. Have fun watching something not published yet! I have so many videos uploaded and they are being published to public at 2 videos / day pace. One English and one Chinese, just trying to not be a "spammer" to the search engine! Subscribe tot he channel and keep watching, you will have endless fun stuff to watch. Not forget that if you want to really learn magic for real, you can always e-mail me to get ordained and start learning for real. All these principles and knowledge is good, but they are not going to be useful for you if you cannot put them into actual practice!
