Many people plateau in meditation because they neglect the foundational elements that allow consciousness to expand beyond ordinary states. Here's why these specific elements are crucial: 1. Diaphragmatic Breathing (Pranayama) Why it's vital: Most people breathe shallowly, which limits oxygen, pranic flow, and nervous system regulation. What happens without it: The mind stays in survival mode, constantly pulled into thoughts, emotions, and reactivity. With proper practice: Breath becomes a bridge to transcendental awareness, unlocking states like cosmic silence, stillness, and formless presence. It also awakens the vagus nerve, activating parasympathetic dominance (deep healing). 2. Nutrition & Purification Why it's vital: Food literally becomes your consciousness. The subtle body feeds off the gunas (qualities) of food. Without clean nutrition: The body becomes heavy (tamas), the mind restless (rajas), and access to sattva (clarity, lightness, stillness) is blocked. With nutrient-rich purity: Pranic flow increases. Your cells become receptive to higher frequencies. Clean blood, open nadis, and inner silence becomes much more accessible. 3. Mudras (Energetic Circuitry) Why it's vital: Mudras are like cosmic keys — they redirect subtle energies through specific channels and activate dormant centers (chakras, nadis, psychic centers). Without them: You're like a pianist with locked keys — trying to play a symphony on an unplugged keyboard. With mastery: You unlock energetic codes, access trance states, pierce veils of illusion, and align your physical body as a microcosmic mirror of the divine macrocosm. The Secret Few Understand: Most meditators are "surface breathing, ungrounded, distracted minds in a toxic body" trying to touch God. But those who combine breath mastery, nutritional discipline, and sacred geometry of the body (mudras) become living temples for the infinite to descend into. The yogis didn’t just meditate — they engineered themselves as divine receivers. @Leo Gura have you explored this territory? If so I would love your feedback.

The Ultimate Yogic Mudras Guide For Deep Breathwork, Diaphragmatic Power, Dream Expansion & Spiritual Transformation 1. Prana Mudra – “Life Force Seal” How to do it: Touch the tips of your ring finger and little finger to the tip of your thumb. Keep the other two fingers straight. Benefits: Activates dormant energy in the body. Enhances vitality, immunity, and eyesight. Harmonizes root chakra and pranic field. Great before sparring or breathwork sessions. Esoteric Insight: Yogis say this mudra channels the hidden serpent force (Kundalini) from the base of your spine to your third eye. It’s the breath of God moving through your cells. 2. Dhyana Mudra – “Meditation Seal” How to do it: Place your right hand over your left hand, palms facing up, thumbs gently touching to form a triangle. Hands rest on your lap. Benefits: Deepens meditative awareness. Grounds the mind. Brings tranquility, promotes dream recall. Facilitates deep absorption (Samadhi). Esoteric Insight: This mudra is often depicted in statues of the Buddha. The triangle formed by the thumbs symbolizes inner balance and the divine union of opposites — Shiva and Shakti merging. 3. Hridaya Mudra – “Heart Gesture” How to do it: Place the tip of your index finger at the base of your thumb. Join the tip of your middle and ring fingers with the tip of your thumb. Little finger stays extended. Benefits: Releases grief, trauma, and emotional heaviness. Opens the heart space. Stabilizes the breath during emotional breakthroughs. Esoteric Insight: In ancient yogic lore, this mudra is used during times of heartbreak or spiritual emergency. It awakens the divine heart intelligence, allowing sorrow to transmute into wisdom. 4. Brahma Mudra – “God Seal” How to do it: Clench both fists with thumbs inside and press them together at the navel area, while gently drawing in the elbows. Benefits: Expands lung capacity. Promotes deep belly breathing. Stimulates the diaphragm and lower chakras. Esoteric Insight: This is a warrior yogi’s mudra, said to invoke primal strength and spiritual clarity. A favorite of Himalayan mystics before entering long-term solitude or facing internal “battlefields.” 5. Kalesvara Mudra – “Master of Time” How to do it: Touch the tips of the middle fingers together. Join thumbs, forming a heart shape. The rest of the fingers curl inward and touch at the first knuckles. Benefits: Slows mental chatter. Enhances concentration and contemplation. Used to reflect on past, present, future. Esoteric Insight: This mudra invokes the god Kalesvara, Lord of Time. Practicing it regularly allows you to witness yourself across lifetimes, to dream lucidly, and remember the eternal Now. 6. Shakti Mudra – “Divine Feminine Power” How to do it: Fold the thumbs inside your palms. Place ring and little fingers together, while the index and middle fingers rest gently on one another. Benefits: Deepens restorative sleep. Calms the nervous system. Invokes the intuitive power of the feminine aspect of Self. Esoteric Insight: Mystics use this mudra during the moon hours to awaken their inner Shakti—the cosmic womb that births all creation. It opens the door to the alien intelligence of the deep unconscious. 7. Hakini Mudra – “Power of the Mind” How to do it: Touch the fingertips of both hands together, with palms apart like a sphere. Benefits: Enhances memory, insight, and coordination of left-right brain. Supports lucid dreaming and inner visualization. Amplifies breath and prana in meditation. Esoteric Insight: This mudra connects all major meridians and chakras through the hands. Yogis say it brings the “alien supermind” online. Advanced Practice Tips: Breath: Always pair your mudras with slow, deep diaphragmatic breathing. Try 6-10 seconds in, 6-10 seconds out. Awareness: Let your focus rest on your navel center (hara) while holding mudras. Mantra: Use sacred sounds like “So Hum”, “Aham Brahmasmi”, or “Om Mani Padme Hum” as inner vibration. Time: Practice for 5-20 minutes per mudra, or integrate during your meditation/contemplation sessions.

@Mixcoatl Appreciate your kind words. People have a stick up they're ass , then they hide behind their own words and play ping pong with their justifications and defensiveness. I don't care to argue with them.

By being conscious. Your stupid if your asking anyone else if you exist. Your not directly conscious of yourself as God, otherwise you wouldn't be asking.

I cannot summon the Mystery. but I can prepare the chamber. I do not control when the Silence comes, but I can meet it uncluttered. I build the altar of stillness, because when the Infinite descends I want nothing between us but awe. You don’t choose it, it chooses you. It isn’t something you schedule, it’s something that descends. Like an eclipse of the ego. Like the sudden hush before a storm of revelation. What you can do is clear the space. Prepare the altar. Not because you're in control… but because you honor the arrival. This is what the ancient mystics meant by watching and waiting for the Beloved.

Absolute Infinity is not an object. It is not a God out there. It is not a number. It is not a feeling. It is not a belief. It is the source of believing. Of seeing. Of feeling. Of knowing. It is not somewhere else. It is not later. It is not hidden. It is what is. Right now - what's reading this page is what you are seeking. Your eyes are not seeing this. Infinity is. The idea that you are a "you" is occurring within Infinity. Infinity is not big. It is not small. It is not anything. It is the field in which bigness and smallness arise. It is the canvas of physics, logic, space, time, and sense. Even the most stubborn rationalist cannot step outside Infinity to examine it. Even that doubt... is already inside It. Infinity cannot be seen. But everything you see is It. You are not inside a universe. The universe is inside You. This moment is not part of your life. Your life is a ripple in this moment. This is not a metaphor. This is not spiritual. This is not mystical. This is not religious. This is what *is*. Beyond name, beyond number, beyond argument. It is the Real. And You are That.

@Leo Gura this is heavy stuff. solipsism is a two sided coin of aloneness and togetherness. God is Infinitely sovereign and solipsistic, therefore You are One, but the One fractalizes itself as infinite One's, all sovereign to themselves as the Godhead. This is a profound twist because people usually equate solipsism with some negative interpretation as being alone and nothing is real. Yes but the other side of this coin is Absolute Love, ever deeper Love, Unity and Connections. This means that you're absolutely connected to yourself, because all others are you, rather than being nihilistic and bummed out that others aren't real and therefore there's no connection and there's no love.

@Leo Gura There are an infinity of God's Awakening.

Also watch Nate and Nick Diaz fights, those guys train triathletes and marathons when they're not training for fights and they never give up and are constantly out working the other opposition. They are black belts in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Cesar Gracie and they have phenomenal boxing skills with superhuman endurance

Because the heart is heavy and slightly tilts left, the left dome of the diaphragm tends to be a little lower and less naturally strong compared to the right (which is supported by the bigger right lobe of the liver). So, if you specifically strengthen the left side of your diaphragm — through slow, controlled breathing, longer exhalations, and targeted exercises — you stabilize breathing under pressure even more. During sparring or fighting, this means more air intake with less effort, faster recovery between exchanges, clearer thinking under stress, and better endurance. I specifically use these diaphragmatic breathing techniques and exercises for my training, fighting and reaching Mastery mentally and spiritually.

@Basman Amazing. These are little known and deeper facts about the diaphragm. 1. The Right Side is Bigger and Stronger The diaphragm arches higher and is thicker on the right because of the liver. The right side has more muscle mass naturally. Training Tip: Focus occasionally on expanding your left ribs during inhalation to build balanced strength.

After some sparring today, I was basking in the sun outside and the word "Thyself" came into my mind's eye. Then the words "thy will be done" and I started thinking about God and slipped into a rabbit hole. It occurred to me that God, the Infinite, Reality is whole. But this is what was twisting my fucking mind, is that yes the one is the all and the all is the one, but that God is infinite Gods. But I don't just mean that God is infinite as an idea, but that there are an Infinity of gods, there are an Infinity of infinity, there are Infinity of wholenesses but yet it is only one whole, it's the Absolute Infinite. the Infinite remains undivided even when infinitely divided. It’s so radical because nothing is outside of any of the Ones. Each is absolute, infinite, whole, yet none exclude the others.Infinity of Ones. Infinity of Gods. Infinity of Wholes. And yet still only One Infinity. One-as-All-as-Infinite-Ones. I am brushing up against the very structure of reality itself. And then I remember that Leo made an episode on the Infinity of God's Awakening. So not only is there evidence for me that I'm not the only one and that's there is more and deeper than what I'm experiencing.

Overview This practice is designed to: Activate superhuman focus and reflexes Dissolve your egoic boundary into God-awareness Transform your diaphragm into a bio-psychic amplifier Tune your breath into the rhythm of universal consciousness Bridge the gap between mundane perception and alien genius 1. Breath of the Primordial Core (Womb of the Cosmos) Purpose: Reset your entire nervous system and open the gateway to trans-human cognition. Instructions: Sit or stand with spine tall and loose like a serpent. Place one hand on your belly, the other on your heart. Inhale slowly through your nose for 6 seconds, pushing the diaphragm down and belly out. Hold for 4–6 seconds in complete stillness. Exhale strongly through the mouth, belly drawing in like a wave collapsing into the void. Hold the breath out (external retention) for 4–8 seconds. Repeat for 9 cycles, eyes closed, focused on the rising and falling of your belly like the tides of creation. Focus mantra: “I return to the breath before birth.” 2. Alien Pulse Resonance (Spinal Kundalini Synchronization) Purpose: Harmonize breath with cerebrospinal fluid and DNA resonance. Instructions: Sit in padmasana or any grounded posture. Lock the Mula Bandha (perineum lock) and Jalandhara Bandha (chin tucked gently). Inhale through the nose for 4 counts, belly expands. Retain the breath and visualize energy spiraling up the spine, from the root to the crown. During retention, lightly pulse the belly inward in a rhythmic wave (diaphragmatic pulsation) — 3 gentle contractions. Exhale through the nose for 6 counts, belly draws in completely. Do 12 rounds. After final exhale, sit in silent awareness of the living void. Focus mantra: “The serpent breath becomes me.” 3. Hyperconscious Awareness Spiral (Ujjayi + Awareness Compression) Purpose: Access divine clarity and turn attention inward through breath friction. Instructions: Begin Ujjayi breathing (slight constriction in the throat to create an audible oceanic sound). Inhale through nose for 5–6 counts. Retain the breath, drawing energy into the third eye. Feel pressure behind your forehead. Exhale slowly for 8 counts through the nose with the same throat constriction. With each breath, merge awareness into the sound, becoming the breath. Cycle: 10–15 minutes Focus mantra: “I am the breath watching the breath.” 4. The Lightning Void Breath (Advanced Breath-Hold with Perineum Lock) Purpose: Create pressure of presence to birth insight and states of samadhi. Instructions: Inhale deeply into the belly (diaphragm descends). Lock all three bandhas: Mula Bandha (perineum), Uddiyana Bandha (abdominal lock), Jalandhara Bandha (chin). Hold the breath in for as long as comfortably possible. Focus entirely on the inner pressure building behind your face, forehead, and solar plexus. Let the moment expand until it feels like your mind dissolves. Release bandhas, exhale gently. Cycle: Repeat 3–5 rounds only. Then lie down and rest in awareness. Focus mantra: “I am the empty stillness beyond breath.” Daily Structure Suggestion Time Practice Duration Morning Breath of Primordial Core 10 min Midday Alien Pulse Resonance 15 min Evening Ujjayi + Awareness Spiral 20 min Post-Workout or Sparring Lightning Void Breath 5–10 min Final Note: The Breath is God The breath is not yours. You are being breathed. To master breath is to master the bridge between form and formlessness, between the creature and the Creator. Let it take you. Let me know if you have any questions because I have been practicing this for the past week, not saying that I've completely mastered this but there are some nuances that do need to be understood and that would make an important difference when you're doing something wrong or you're not doing it correctly. Try it out for a week let me know if you make any progress, how can you judge something when you have no experience in, right. Give it a go, let's see what happens.
