Endlessness and Rising Spirit,


The reason I have given these lecture excerpts is because they come from a very accomplished Buddha Grandmaster who has been cultivating and perfecting himself spiritually for most of his life.


When one tempers oneself under grueling spiritual Cultivation for a very long time one comes to 'open' or as they say in Cultivation circles 'unlock' ones supernatural abilities, innate Wisdom as well as many many other things.


Now I can say for certain that I personally find these lecture excerpts fascinating, they seem to to have much in common with the DMT dimensions that many people here have encountered and traverse.


If you don't find these excerpts of interest that is fine but I am sharing this information with people that may want to get a Buddha Masters perspective on all of these interesting matters.


As for my own personal views on all of this? I beleive that DMT allows one to enter or 'break  into' these dimensional realms in a rather haphazard way. I beleive there are real dangers to the spiritual development of ones self by saturating oneself with DMT and blindly hoping for the best, as one can attest to, the canon blast is always random and what one encounters is not always benevolent.


I have come to the speculative conclusion that these DMT realms and the inhabitants therein are both very real, immensly complex and profound and ( without deep understanding of esoteric and spiritual matters) immensely dangerous to one's soul.


I beleive the true goal of life is to actually transcend to these higher dimensional realms permanently. This is what all the mystics and sages were trying to articulate throughout the ages, that this dimension is the bottom rung of the multidimensional ladder as it were and that our true homes are in places that are far more profound, magical and wonderful then what we can even begin to imagine.


DMT is not a shortcut however,in my personal view it is a sure fire way to damage/mangle your spiritual being, possibly bring upon spirit possession and other very serious things.


Why do I beleive this to be so? I have come to understand that there are ways to ascend to these expansive, liberating dimensions of being in a way that one is slowly energized, empowered and most importantly 'protected'.


There is a section in 'Zhuan Falun' that talks about what the Ancient Masters refer to as Cultivation of the 'Buddha Body' or the 'Adamantine Body'. Here is the excerpt but I do recommend downloading the whole book (  http://falundafa.org/book/eng/pdf/zfl_new.pdf )


This is a profound and far reaching spiritual Science, a Science of the Soul if you will.


After reading this excerpt you will come to realize just how intricate the Spiritual Body is and that using high powered hallucinogens randomly could very well be doing you great harm:





Placement of the Mysterious Pass



"Placement of the Mysterious Pass" is also called the "One Aperture of the Mysterious Pass." You can find these terms in The Book of Elixir, Daoist Canon, and Guide to Nature and Longevity. So what is it? A lot of qigong masters can’t explain it. Ordinary qigong masters can’t see it at all from their levels, and they’re not allowed to see it. If a cultivator wants to see it, he has to reach the upper level of the Wisdom Eye before he can see it. Ordinary qigong masters can’t reach that level so they can’t see it. 


Ever since ancient times cultivation circles have been trying to figure out what the Mysterious Pass is, where the One Aperture is, and how to place it. In The Book of Elixir, Daoist Canon, and Guide to Nature and Longevity they only discuss it theoretically, and they don’t touch the essence at all. They explain it and explain it, but they only make you more confused. No one can explain it well because ordinary people aren’t allowed to know the essence.


Also, I can tell you something, and it’s only because you’re our Falun Dafa disciples that I’m telling you this: make sure you don’t read those confused qigong books. I’m not talking about the ancient books I just mentioned. I’m referring to those fake qigong books that people write nowadays. Don’t even open them. As soon as you have even the slightest thought, "Oh, this sentence makes sense..." when that thought flashes through your mind, the possessing spirits in that book will get on your body. 


A lot of books were written under the control of possessing spirits that manipulated people’s attachments to fame and profit. There are a lot of fake qigong books—quite a lot. A lot of people are irresponsible, and they even write things that have possessing spirits and other junk. Even the ancient books I mentioned before or other ancient books like those, for the most part, it’s better not to read them since there’s the issue of committing to just one practice.


An official from the China Qigong Association once told me a story which really made me laugh. He said that there was a person in Beijing who always went to qigong lectures. He’d take them in one after another, and after a while he felt that there wasn’t anything more to qigong than what he’d heard. They were all at the same level so they all talked about the same things. Like those fake qigong masters, he thought that was the only meaning qigong had! "Alright then, I’ll write a qigong book, too." Think about it, someone who doesn’t practice qigong wants to write a qigong book. Qigong books are just copied from one another nowadays—he copies yours, you copy his… He wrote and wrote until he got to the topic of the Mysterious Pass, and he couldn’t go further. 


Who really knows what the Mysterious Pass is? Even few real qigong masters know. So he went and asked a fake qigong master. He didn’t know he was fake, though, because he didn’t know about qigong to begin with. But if the fake qigong master couldn’t answer the question, wouldn’t people know he was fake? So he dared to make something up, and said that the One Aperture of the Mysterious Pass is located at the tip of a man’s private part. It sounds pretty absurd. But don’t laugh yet—this book has been published. What I’m saying is that today’s qigong books are that ridiculous. Is there any point in your reading that stuff? There’s no point, and it can only harm you.


So then what’s meant by, "Placement of the Mysterious Pass"? During your Triple-World-Law cultivation, when you cultivate above the middle levels, meaning, when you enter high-level Triple-World-Law cultivation, the Cultivated Infant starts to develop. The Cultivated Infant is different from what we know as Cherubs. Cherubs are small, playful, and mischievous. The Cultivated Infant doesn’t move, and unless the master soul controls him, he’ll sit still with his hands folded in the Jieyin position, legs crossed and on a lotus flower. The Cultivated Infant is born from the elixir field. You can see him in the extreme microcosm—even when he’s smaller than the tip of a needle.


There’s something else I’d like to clarify. There is only one true elixir field, and it’s at the area around the lower abdomen. Well, it’s the field located above the Huiyin acupoint at the perineum, it’s inside the body, and below your lower abdomen. Many forms of gong, many abilities, many technique-like things, Law Bodies, the Cultivated Infant, Cherubs, and many other beings are all born in this field.


In the past there were a few cultivators who talked about an upper elixir field, a middle elixir field, and a lower elixir field. I’d say they were wrong. Some would say that their masters had passed it down that way for generations and that it’s written in books that way. I’ll tell you, junk has been around since ancient times. Don’t look at how many years it’s been passed down for—that doesn’t mean it’s correct. Some worldly small paths have always been spread in the environment of ordinary people, but they can’t help you cultivate. They’re nothing. 


When they talk about the upper elixir field, middle elixir field, and the lower elixir field, what they mean is that wherever you generate elixir is an elixir field. Isn’t that funny? When a person focuses his mind on a single spot, after some time it will generate an energy mass that forms an elixir. If you don’t believe it, then focus your mind on your arm and keep it there, and a little while later elixir will form there. So when some people see this they say that elixir field is everywhere. 


That sounds even funnier. They think that wherever elixir forms, that’s an elixir field. The truth is, that’s an elixir, but not a field. You could say that elixir is everywhere, or that there’s an upper elixir, middle elixir, and lower elixir—that’s okay. But, there’s only one field that can truly generate countless Laws, and it’s located at the lower abdominal area. So those sayings about an upper elixir field, a middle elixir field, and a lower elixir field are wrong. Elixir will form wherever you focus your mind for a while.


The Cultivated Infant is born at the elixir field at the lower abdomen and it slowly grows bigger and bigger. By the time he’s the size of a ping-pong ball, the shape of his whole body can be seen, and his nose and eyes are developed. While he’s the size of a ping-pong ball, a small, round bubble grows by his side. 


After it’s formed, it grows as the Cultivated Infant grows. When the Cultivated Infant grows to be about five inches tall, a single lotus flower petal appears. When he grows to be about seven to eight inches tall, the lotus petals are basically formed, and a layer of lotus petals appears. The golden, shining Cultivated Infant sits on a golden lotus plate—it’s beautiful. That is the Indestructible Adamantine Body, which Buddhists call a Buddha-body, and Daoists call a Cultivated Infant.


In our discipline we cultivate both types of bodies and they’re both required—your innate body has to be transformed, too. You know, a Buddha-body can’t be revealed around ordinary people. With a lot of effort, the shape can be shown, and ordinary people’s eyes can see its luminescence. But to ordinary people, after this body has been transformed, it looks the same as the body of an ordinary person, and ordinary people can’t tell any difference, but it can freely move between dimensions. 


When the Cultivated Infant has grown to be about five to seven inches tall, the air bubble will have also grown to the same height. It’s just like a balloon’s membrane, and it’s transparent. The Cultivated Infant sits with its legs crossed and doesn’t move. When he’s grown that big the air bubble needs to leave the elixir field, it’s fully grown. "A melon falls when it’s ripe," as they say. So it’ll move up. The process of moving up is a slow one, but every day it can be seen moving. It gradually moves up and rises higher. If we experience and observe it carefully we can sense that it exists.


When it reaches your Tanzhong acupoint at the center of the chest, it needs to stay there for a period of time. This is because the human body’s essence, and many things (the heart is also here), will form a set of their own inside this air bubble. The air bubble needs to be enriched with essence. After some time it moves up again. When it passes through the neck you feel suffocated, as if your blood vessels were blocked, and it feels so swollen it’s painful. This will be over in a day or two, and then it reaches the head. 


We call this "ascending to Niwan." Although we say it arrives at Niwan, it’s actually as large as your entire brain, and you’ll feel like your head is swollen. Since Niwan is a key place in a person’s being, its essence also needs to be formed inside the bubble. After that, the bubble squeezes its way through the Third Eye passageway, and that feeling is awful. The Third Eye is so swollen that it hurts, the temples also feel swollen, and the eyes are sunken. This lasts until the bubble squeezes out, and it instantly hangs at the forehead position. This is called the Placement of the Mysterious Pass—it hangs there.


At that time, people whose Third Eyes are open can’t see. That’s because in both Buddhist and Daoist cultivation the doors are closed in order to develop things faster inside the Mysterious Pass. There’s a large set of doors at the front and a set of doors at the back, and they’re all closed, just like the tunnel of Tiananmen gate in Beijing, with a big set of doors on each side. In order to accelerate the formation and enrichment of the Mysterious Pass, the doors aren’t opened except under extremely special circumstances. 


People who can see things with their Third Eyes aren’t able to see at that stage—they aren’t allowed to look with it. What’s the purpose of its hanging there? Hundreds of energy channels in our body intersect at that spot, so the hundreds of energy channels have to circle through the Mysterious Pass and come out, and they all have to go through the Mysterious Pass. This is done to lay some more foundations and form that set of things inside the Mysterious Pass. Since the human body is a small universe, it will form a small world, and all human-body essence will be formed inside it. But it only forms a set of facilities, and it’s not fully operational yet.


In Qimen cultivation the Mysterious Pass is kept open. When the Mysterious Pass is ejected, it comes out in the form of a tube, but it gradually becomes round. So the doors on both its sides are open. The Qimen practices don’t cultivate into Buddhas or Daos, so they have to protect themselves. There are a lot of Buddhist and Daoist masters, and they can all protect you, so you don’t need to see and you won’t run into problems. But that wouldn’t work for the Qimen practices. They have to protect themselves, so they have to be able to see. But when they see things with their Third Eyes at that time it’s like looking through the tube of a telescope. After this set of things is formed, which is about a month or so, it starts to return. When it returns to inside the head it’s called the "Mysterious Pass Changing Positions."


When it goes back, your head will again feel so swollen that it’s awful. Then it squeezes its way out of your Yuzhen acupoint at the nape of the neck. The feeling as it squeezes out is again awful, as if your head was being split open. Then it comes out all at once, and you’ll immediately feel relief. After it comes out, it hangs in a deep dimension, and it exists on the bodily form in that deep dimension, so you won’t press against it while you sleep. But there’s one thing. 


You’ll sense that something is in front of your eyes when the Mysterious Pass is first placed, and even though it’s in another dimension, you’ll always feel like your vision is blurry, like something is blocking your eyes, and it’s not very pleasant. Since the Yuzhen acupoint is a major, key pass, a set of things also needs to be formed at the back of the head. Then it starts to go back. The "One Aperture of the Mysterious Pass" actually isn’t just one aperture—it has to be placed multiple times. After it’s returned to Niwan, it starts to descend, and it descends inside the body all the way to the Mingmen acupoint at the space between the kidneys. At the Mingmen acupoint it’s ejected out again.


Your Mingmen acupoint is an extremely important, major aperture. Daoists call it an "aperture," and we call it a "pass." It’s an important, major pass, and it’s really like a steel gate—like countless layers of steel gates. You know, our bodies have layers after layers. Our flesh cells here are one layer, and the molecules inside them form another layer—atoms, protons, electrons, the infinitely small particles, the smaller and even smaller particles, all the way down to the extremely microcosmic particles, and each layer has one layer of gates set up. 


And for this reason there are lots and lots of abilities and technique-type things that are all locked inside the many layers of gates. In other practices, which cultivate elixir, when the elixir explodes, the Mingmen has to be blasted open first. If it’s not blasted open your abilities won’t be freed. After the Mysterious Pass has formed this set of things at the Mingmen acupoint it goes back inside again. Once it’s inside, it begins its return to the lower abdominal area. This is called "Mysterious Pass Returning to its Position."


After the Mysterious Pass returns, it doesn’t go back to its original place. At that time the Cultivated Infant has grown very big. The air bubble will cover the Cultivated Infant, and it will envelop the Cultivated Infant. As the Cultivated Infant grows, it grows along with him. If the Infant is a Daoist one, usually when he has grown to the size of a six- or seven-year-old child he’s allowed to leave the body, and that’s called "Birth of the Cultivated Infant." He can come out and move around under the control of your master soul. The human body stays there, fixed, while the master soul comes out.


And if the Infant is a Buddhist one, usually when it’s cultivated to your size there’s no more danger. At that time, the Cultivated Infant is normally allowed to leave the body, to separate from the body, and it can come out. By then the Cultivated Infant has grown as large as you, and the cover is large. The cover has expanded outside your body, and that is the Mysterious Pass. Since the Cultivated Infant has grown so big, the Mysterious Pass naturally expands outside the body.


Maybe you’ve seen the statues and paintings of Buddhas that are in temples, and noticed that the Buddhas are always inside a circle. This is especially true for the paintings of Buddhas—there’s always a circle that the Buddha sits in. A lot of Buddha images are like that, especially the paintings in ancient temples—they’re all like that. Why do they sit inside a circle? Nobody knows. I’ll tell you, that is the Mysterious Pass. But then it’s not called a Mysterious Pass. It’s called a world. 


Well actually, it can’t be called a world just yet. It only has this set of facilities, just like a factory that has a set of facilities but doesn’t have the ability to produce. It needs energy and raw materials before it can start production. A few years back a lot of cultivators said, "My gong is higher than a Bodhisattva’s," or "My gong is higher than a Buddha’s." Other people thought it sounded unbelievable. Actually, what they said wasn’t at all unbelievable. Your gong does have to be cultivated to a very high level while you’re in the human world.


So how did this come about?—he’s cultivated higher than a Buddha? You shouldn’t understand it so superficially. His gong is definitely very high. That’s because when he’s cultivated to a very high level and reached full Enlightenment, or is Unlocked, his gong is definitely very high. Right before he’s Unlocked and fully Enlightened, eight tenths of his gong will be taken down together with his character level. 


That energy is used to enrich his world, his own world. As you know, a cultivator’s gong, along with his level of character especially, is what he’s cultivated by going through countless hardships and tempering himself under grueling conditions all his life. So it’s extremely precious, and eight tenths of that precious matter is used to enrich his world. And for this reason, when he succeeds in cultivation later on he’ll get whatever he wants just by extending his hand, he’ll have anything he wants, and he’ll be able to do whatever he wants to—he’ll have everything in his world. That’s his benevolent might, which he cultivated by bearing hardships.


That energy that he has can be easily transformed into anything. So whatever a Buddha wants, or whatever he’d like to eat or to play with, he has it all. That’s what he has cultivated for himself, that’s his Buddha Status, and without it he can’t complete his cultivation. By this time it can be called his own world, and he only has two tenths of his gong left to be Perfected, to attain the Dao. 


Even though he only has two tenths of his gong left, his body isn’t locked, or he doesn’t have a body, or even if he does it’s already been transformed by high-energy matter. His divine powers will then be displayed in full, and they are unmatched in their might. While he’s cultivating around ordinary people his body is usually locked and he doesn’t have such great skills, and no matter how high his gong is, he’s restrained. But now everything will be different.
