Building the lower dantian

3 posts in this topic

I would like some help with something here if anyone has any experience. I have been doing the Dantian breathing shown by Johnathan White here to build the Dantian for a couple of days. I then found this video  "how to build the Dan Tian" and after reading some of the comments i found people saying that you have to do standing meditation to build the dan tian and sometimes people think they are charging or building the Dantian when really they are not. Im a little confused the breathing technique seem to be producing some results and in the video Johnathan says that it defiantly works but know I dont know if i'm wasting my time. Any help would be much appreciated.

There’s few particulars in this YouTube. You might find it interesting though.

This can get to be an expansive subject from my perspective necessitates inquiry in the form of self observation. Both intensive and long lasting because the psychological very much comes into play. Ted Nottingham who narrates this documentary is a student of the Gurdjieff material ( Fourth way/esoteric Christianity)  A.H. Almaas incorporated Gurdjieff’s Teaching into his Diamond Approach. That’s who I’ve learned the most from. Reading his books and doing inquiry on my own. 
He goes at this subject from many angles including the perspective of the lataif of Sufism but tied in also completely with the Freudian concept of the superego,,,,, This is the red energy (sex energy) that needs to become freed up to further energize one “on the path”,,,

 

I’m a rogue student of Almaas’s Diamond Approach. I’ll leave a couple of links to relevant topics from the Glossary if you’re interested.
