Hello fellow meditator here
« on: January 30, 2023, 11:01:19 PM »
Hello there everyone.  Jeff suggested I join this forum.  I used to participate in his Yahoo group way back in the early 2000's up to 2009 and started daily meditation in 2003 which I continue.  I reconnected with Jeff a few years back after learning from some other traditions.  I have some experience in meditation up to 3rd Jhana, experience in astral projection, working with spirit conjuring, and herbalism as well as Kundalini Yoga.  Happy to share any of my knowledge with others.

Welcome, David.  I look forwards to reading what you have to say.  It might help you to understand the world view that drives this forum if you are familiar with the writing of the major mystics: Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, Rumi, Kabir, Patonjali and Siddhartha Gautama.  In the case of this body of literature we caution people to understand that most of us will be reading it in translation, so must realize most translators are not even contemplatives and thus not likely to be mystics, so their translations tend to be problematic.
There is no progress without discipline.

If you want to post to this forum, then send me a PM.

Hi David,

It is good to see you posting here. I would definitely like to learn more about your experience and current daily routine. What traditions or teachers do you find most influential? How much do you meditate and what livelihood you follow to support meditation practice?

Hi Tad, I have had five teahers in my life since starting with Jeff on Yahoo in 2003(ish?).   In 2009 I began doing Kundalini Yoga, at the time it was just what I needed, my health was in decline and the Yoga and deep breathing stimulated healing and higher energy.  I still personally practice Kundalini Kriya Yoga an hour daily and I find that doing that is my main foundation practice.  It gives me energy to do my other training.  It's sort of like a body builder going to the gym.  I can't focus on the rest of my training much without enough get up and go energy.   

   The lineage I started in back during 2009 was that of Yogiraj Siddhanath an Indian Yoga Master.   I started doing Janagama Dhyana as mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita in 2013 as well as working with magic through sound.    Right now I am on a meditation retreat at my parents place since April.  My 4th year or more long retreat since graduating college in 2007.   

    In 2018 I became a targeted individual and so I had to very quickly shift my lifestyle.  I shifted my focus mostly away from hours of medation, unfortunately, to learning to work with spirits for protection as well as learning protection magic.   I also started learning astral travel in 2018 and kept that training up until 2020 when I started focusing more on my protection.  I suppose becoming a target was a blessing in disquise because it pushed me to train harder.

   Currently I am working on improving my protection magic alot, doing a little silent meditation and doing an hour of Kriya Kundalini Yoga daily, usually in the mornings on my retreat.  Feel free to ask any more questions.

What is protection magic and how are you being targeted? I have never heard about it. It sounds quite an interesting phenomena.

Hi Tad.  I'll start a new thread in 'Spiritual Crisis' about this topic.  Take a look there.  My targeting is traditional CIA Trauma based targeting with drone fleets over the house primarily.  Drone strikes are done to alot of people considered 'undesirable' by the government.  You can google search 'targeted individuals' for information.  There is a huge community of targets.
