Case of Witch’s Hat

A two-dimensional cylinder is easy to visualize, but nine-dimensional space with six dimensions wrapped up into some kind of six-dimensional tiny space is beyond anyone’s powers of visualization. But making pictures in your head or on paper is not the only way to understand the mind-boggling six-dimensional geometry of string theory.
-LEONARD SUSSKIND, The Cosmic Landscape

He said that the most effective strategy was worked out by the seers of the Conquest, the unquestionable masters of stalking. It consists of six elements that interplay with one another. Five of them are called the attributes of warriorship: control, discipline, forbearance, timing, and will. They pertain to the warrior who is fighting to lose self-importance. The sixth element, which is perhaps the most important of all, pertains to the outside world and is called petty tyrant.
-CARLOS CASTANEDA, The Fire from Within

Girolamo Gardano was born in Pavia, Lombardy in 1501, the illegitimate child of lawyer friend of Leonardo Da Vinci. He arguably contributed even more to science than Da Vinci. The driveshaft of your car employs a pivoting joint that allows rotary power to be transmitted at an angle. This joint is known as Cardan joint in honour of its inventor. Cardano also published more than a hundred books that ranged across mathematics, natural sciences, medicine, engineering, and philosophy. It was he who came up with the mechanical gimbal that made high-speed printing possible. He also originated study of probability-largely because of his interest in gambling. Perhaps most impressively, he developed the concept of imaginary numbers, a vital part of the theories electromagnetism, quantum physics and relativity that were still hundreds of years away.
The year before he died, Cardano wrote an autobiography entitled The Book of My Life. It is an electrifying read and details his sexual conquests, his illnesses, his tragedies and-perhaps most enlightening of all-his modus operanti for scientific discovery. Cardano seems to have taken great delight in the assumption that this breakthroughs came from rational sources. ‘This form of knowledge is pleasing to the erudite, for they think it proceeds from great learning and practice, and on this account very many have judged me to be deeply devoted to study and possessed of a good memory when nothing is less true,’ he wrote.
The truth-in Cardano’s eyes, at least-is that his source was ‘the ministrations of my attendant spirit’. He was visited by familiar spirits, angels and demons, and took advice from them: ‘I have less rarely arrived at comprehension by a skilful treatment than I have been aided on many occasions by spiritual insight’. Cardano’s father, son and cousin were all certified lunatics. Cardano called himself lunatic. Perhaps we too would question his sanity. But the fact is that invisible, intagible, irrational sources can be an incredibly powerful source of discovery.

Perhaps the clearest statement I can make regarding the power of electrogenesis displayed by Chang Sifu is to say that it is most definitely not the result of electron flow. If it were, such electron movement could have been recorded as a potential or a current of some sort, and John would have been able to produce incandence in a lightbulb. Nevertheless, anyone coming into contact with this energy will swear that he feels an electric current passing through his body. In addition, this energy is thoroughly tranferrable through conductors (metal, water), but not through insulators. If this current is not due to electron flow, then what is causing it?
-KOSTA DANAOS, The Magus of Java

O puny man, heed ye my warning, seek not to break open the gate beyond. Few there are who have succeeded in passing the Barrier, to the greater twilit grotto that shines beyond. For know ye well, that the dwellers in the Abyss hunt souls like unto thine to hold in their thrall. Listen O man of clouded brain and heed ye my warning: move ye not in angles, but curved dimensions, and if while loose from thy body thou hearest the sound like the bay of hounds clamoring increasingly through thy being, retreat, if thou art nimble, to thy body through cycles and penetrate the veil no more!
-The Law of the Trapezoid (from Antor Szandor LaVey’s Satanic Rituals)

As time passes demonic states will occur to the practiser in the form of visions of paradise in all its majesty with beautiful gardens and pools, or of hells with frightful demons with strange and awesome heads and faces constantly changing their hideous forms. if he is unable to banish these apparitions caused by the five aggregates as well as the visions of women and girls which disturb him, he must compose his heart (mind) which should be clear within and without. The correct method is not to see all that is visible nor hear all that is audible, but to concentrate intently on the inmost, to fix on the spot between them (the eyes) and to practice the seventh step (holding on to the centre to realise the oneness of heaven and earth) to drive vitality through the four cardinal points. This will remove all demonic hindrances instantly.

Parapsychologist David Luke forwarded me an interesting article entitled, “A Methodology for Studying Various Interpretations of the N,N-dimethyltryptamine-Induced Alternate Reality”. This article is by one Marko A. Rodriguez, and in this paper Mr. Rodriguez proposes an information theory experiment to test the autonomous nature of the DMT universe: having trippers ask DMT elves to calculate a prime factor of a 5-digit non-prime number (such as 12233), and then have the DMT elves relay the answer to the next tripper that happens along for verification. Can anyone see any problems with this experiment?
-JAMES L. KENT, To Catch a DMT Elf

“Grandsons,” he began, “for the gift of oneness you must pass through four veils.” His hands moved softly in the air, painting the veils on an invisible canvas. From what I could tell, they were like curtains or weeds-fragile passageways separating four levels of consciousness, each one deeper than the one before. “You live now,” he said, “in the world of the first veil, the world of the altered.”

The present stage of the universe, therefore, was ushered in by the “freezing” of the hot plasma into a collection of atoms less than a million years after the Big Bang, almost 15 billion years ago. For most matter this new atomic state was transitory, because soon after this freezing occurred, another natural process began. Under the influence of gravity, the expanding material began to come together in clumps. These aggregations would eventually form the galaxies. Within each clump the gravitational forces continued to operate, drawing large clouds of gases together into nebulae. Even as the the overall motion was universal expansion, matter was being drawn together on the local scale by the attractive force of gravity. When enough matter accumulated at a point, its combined gravitational pull attracted other matter in the vicinity, and and the addition of the new material increased the gravitational force and brought in still more . As the mass of the body (by now protostar) increased, the material was compressed and heated in in a sort of reserve replay of the expansion of the Big Bang, although this time the drama was played out on a local, rather than universal scale. Long before the temperatures at the center of the body reached the point where the fusion reaction could ignite to create a true star, atomic collisions had again become sufficiently violent to strip the atoms of their newly acquired electrons and recreate the plasma state. In a sense, that process of gravitational collapse and atomic destruction undid the process of atomic formation that had taken place in the transition to the final stage of Big Bang. As a result, most atoms possesses electrons for only a short period of time, perhaps less than a million years, between the moment at which the Big Bang had cooled off to where atoms could survive collisions and the time when those atoms were incorporated into still forming stars.

>>if one has not embodied the principles of virtue and compassion, then
one has not truly embodied any practices beyond Fusion I, and are
therefore not doing Healing Dao except effectively at the stage of
the Fundamentals>>

From the point of apostatic renunciation it’s not like this anyway, but maybe it is somehow too complicated matter and also not important.

Also Fusion practice or practice which is in the same direction doesn’t necessarily need these labelled positive emotions. It seems to be nothing else than analytic overlay and quite hypocritical one.

No wonder that Taoist traditionally (…Taoist scriptures are full of technical terms which seem very obscure and unintelligible even to students in China, for the authors did not intend to make the texts accessible to people of low spirituality or of questionable character, or to unbelievers and blasphemers-Lu Kuan Yu/ Charles Luk) have been so selective whom they teach.

Until recently, Udo of Aachen occupied a sideline in the history books as a minor poet, copyist and theological essayist. Even his birth and death dates of this mediaeval Benedictine monk are unknown, though he probably lived from around 1200-1270 AD. A new study of his work, however, has led to his recognition as an outstandingly original and talented mathematician.

In April 2008, the evolutionary biologist Jonathan Eisen announced on his blog that scientists were about to be forced to undergo anti-doping blood tests. The US National Institutes of Health, he said, was seeking to curb the growing problem of ‘brain-boosting’ drugs that enabled scientists to think more clearly in the pursuit of scientific breakthroughs. Eisen quoted an NIH official as saying that the new initiatives were ‘designed to level the playing field among scientists in terms of intellectual activities’. The use of drugs ‘has been affecting the competitive balance in scientific research,’ according to the statement posted on Eisen’s website.

What is significant about Atom was that unlike Ant-Man or Elasti-Girl, he was not restricted to a constant-density reduction. That is, Ray Palmer could independently control both his size and his mass. Apparently, white-dwarf matter provides two “miracle exceptions” for the price of one.

It is simply impossible at this point to have clear idea as to what the yin ch’i really is. If any of the properties accounted can be clinically proven, the we will have to revise the First Law of Thermodynamics. The demonstration involving the air rifle is most precise in defining the characteristics of yin: the energy of the pellet was not conserved, there was no deformation, no generation of heat, no impact (conservation of momentum). In a recent conversation John described the yin as “being like gravity in that gravity itself was also a yin ch’i.” I have stuck my neck out in this text repeatedly, not least by stating that understanding the yin energy will give us the secrets to faster-than-light speeds. Let me do so once again in this paragraph with another simple sentence: if energy can disappear into nowhere, then it can be created from nothing as well. Imagine what a blow such news would be to the energy industry; they would probably fight like rabid wolves to prevent such information from making the rounds, even as a idle speculation.

“Fakes, thieves and jokers, mate.”
I gestured at the wall behind me. “So why do you buy books and videos by other people, then?”

There was some time ago this hidden posting about Carlos Castaneda working for the dark side. I don’t claim to know the truth and also taking account all what is happening, it’s also something very marginal in the end. Very manipulative this Mr. Castaneda anyway seem to have been.

One striking difference in that tradition which Castaneda describes in his books is aim to steer clear that tradition from practices which are meant to be learned like mechanical procedures which are same for everybody.

It’s completely opposite attitude what one learns as Taoist practices whether energy yogas or Tai Chi (as an example).

One could maybe interpret that there was possibility to reach a goal, but because it wasn’t realized, instead of making healthy retreat early enough, only ugly end could result (in Castaneda’s case I mean). But all that is in the end in the mist, so who knows.

It seems that both Universal & Healing Tao formulas are still unfolding, so there is discoveries (in the sense of exploration) still made and that is very different to these Asian lineages which seem to be mostly hopelessly conservational. I mean it’s almost funny to notice that after Swami Satyananda Saraswati wrote all his books (and he wrote very many like his guru Swami Shivananda), he is still unsure if after initiation (serpent power and maybe some other things) you need some tradition with it’s long history to help you as a pilgrim (The Ancestor’s Tale by Richard Dawkins is subtitled A Pilgrimage to the Dawn of Life) or you could make progress by yourself.

Ps. One reason why longevity would be important, in my opinion, is that dragons seem to be somehow slow to learn (also stupidly stubborn) and accept real situation so maybe having much more time could heal this defect.
