Opening hidden bodies

Second week of March course has finished.
This week we try to open 'Hidden body cavity', 'Hidden
joint', 'Hidden skin', Visual channel, Audio channel, and
so on.
Also new rhizoming techniques were practiced.
I could teach 'Zu-Ji-Cho' method as a specific creation method, at the first time. It was found several years ago, but only this year I could find the chance to tell.
About these new methods, I will upload them on 'Practice
Guide' some time later.
With long term students, everything could go further and
deeper.
Students enjoyed to meet unknown hidden characters were unfolded with surprising.
Also most of students encountered some edges everyday.
Our conscious ego disturbs to receive unknown hidden elements within the darkness of body.
By judgments of dualism which is good/bad, wrong/right, positive/negative, like/dislike and so on.
When we encounter some edges, we don't need to force to overcome the edge directly.
There are multi-dimensional labyrinth in our darkness of body, when we will travel in another tunnels, suddenly we notice that there is the edge behind us.

In the next week, we will try to open emotional channel,
human relational channel, and world channels.
Through these channels so many unknown hidden characters will be unfolded.
Every day and night, I try to enter student's new subbodies and listen to subbodies what do they want to open next.
When students are ready to meet and receive more strange hidden elements, I can guide them to deeper tunnels.
This is the biggest pleasure for midwife of subbody to encounter the moment when new subbodies are born.

Time paradox of subbody

I tryed to proceed subbody process as slow as possible, in this Spring term.
Time of subbody has paradox, the slower we proceed, the deeper we will sink.
This week we tryed resonance touch practice in the every morning, then students could enter the subbody mode easily, they could feel lazy, heavy, slow subbody mode directly, and in the afternoon practice they could experience deeper travel in subbody world.
Some of students entered so deep level of subbody which left from consciousness.
Some of students have met various type of subbody, sub-characters, and some archtypes--old man, snake, monkey, father and so on.
Some of them traveled various age of one's individual life history.
Also we could start to practice rhizoming technique which is the main method of subbody. It is not possible when we could calm down consciouness enough.
Maybe next week we will try to calm down consciousness into much more deep level.
How is it possible to die down consciousness deeper?
I realized that resonance touch is so efective to enter subbody mode, than I expected.
I will investigate in further level through shiatsu method.
The deep somatic feeling through shiatsu will guide us to the deeper body qualia world.
This is a new chalenge for me.

*****

This week's subbodies have a tendency which every body closed eyes. It is natural process, because this week we tryed to enter subconscious mode of movement. They are concentrating on only body and movement channels. You will find at next week how subbodies will be changed by opening visual (=eye) channel and audio channel. Week by week we will try to open new channels.

Slow slow start

New course has started.
This year, we can began with slow and calm tempo, because paraticipants are long term students only.
This morning, we began from swaying conditioning and resonance touch for long time, afternoon, clock sway, life upstream meditaton, and ash walk.
Students try to search the most proto sub signal from life in the darkness of body.
I felt ' Yes, this is proper tempo to enter the darkness'.
Finally I could find it.
I awared that the menu of last year was too much condensed to digest.
A student said 'I could relaxed so deep.'
Another student said 'It seemes miracle place!'
A student could find some connection with today's subbody to childhood memories.
Anyway we will travel in our whole self world.
It's amazing.
Let's enjoy slowly.

Leter for new students 3

Welcome to subbody world

Now Spring has come in Himalaya.
It's warm, arround 22-24 degrees of temparature in sunny days, many kinds of trees are full blossoming.

Subbody school will start on next Monday.
Untill then, please continue to calm down your daily mind and body.
Keep quiet as deep as possible.

Shift from daily thinking mode to listening mode to the darkness of body, through swaying meditation and other conditioning methods of 'Practice Guide'.
Stop reading newspapers, magazines, books, separate from TV, radio, and all kinds of infomational noises.
Calm down language brain and judgement.
Separate yourself from the human relationship which cause you the feeling trouble, and emotional waves.
Just listen carefully to what is happening in the darkness of body.
Open subtle sense which is able to catch the sub-signal of your darkness of body as faint as possible.
Try to catch subtle signal from your life and subbody.
The signal is so subtle and sentient. It is millions times
weaker than conscious signal in your brain and body.

Because when our language brain acts millions of neuron cells have to fire together by synchronizes electlic excitement.
But the qualia are shifting condition by subtle chemical siganl in our glia cells in brain. The energy level is millions times subtler then elctric signals of neuron.
The condition of glia is changing in every nano second infinitly.
The moment which you can catch a signal is so short moment. You can feel it only for several nano secconds then it disappears immidiately.
We need to become a ultra sentient hunter to catch it.
Moreover, they are streming beyond channels of consciousness.
They are shift from subtle body feeling to tiny spontaneous movement, a short vision, delicate wispering from another dimension, very small changing of emotions, human relationship feeling, a sign of shifting of world image, self image stream and so on.
Anyway pleae try to catch it and recognize how subtle it is conparing the dayly mind and body.
This is the reason why you need to stop consciousness and become the quiet body.
It is the most important point of subbody process to be the most sentient body which can catch the sub-signal in a most subtle unvisible sign, before it will appear as a visible shape.
No need to hurry, take your time as slow as possible.
'Slowly, slowly', this is the subbody speed.

******

On Monday 17th March we will meet at school.

Letter for new students 2

I uploaded a new article about 'Swaying meditation' at the top of 'Practice Guide'.
You can find it bellow this article.
Please try to this meditation in the every morning and evenig as a preparation to enter subbody school. It will help you to get the subbody method easier in the class.

Now Spring has come in Himalaya India, the temparature is arround 20 degree in fine day. But sometimes it will go back to Winter. Because here is at the 1800 meters hight from sea level.

During you will travel to Himalaya India. your body must change to adorenalin mode, it stops your immune system. Your body will become easier to catch cold or some thing. This is natural response of our body against foregn condition of land and culture.
India is so different from your country in every kinds of expierience..
Please try to keep calming down your condition by the swaying meditation (below) as much as possible. It will guard your body against the nessesary changing of your body.

Hope to have a good trip and keep your fine condition through the travel in India.

See you soon!

Letter for new students 1

This letter is for students who are going to join the subbody school.
To learn subbody method means no to get some physical techniques, but to change your way of living. It need so much time. That's the reason why the minimum term has been changed from one month to three months.
In our advanced societies, we are forced to keep strong ego and language consciousness. All of us are forced so, then nobody notice that we are forced.
Why was the subbody school opened in Himalaya?
The reason is that we need to separate from the habit and bind of advanced societies, and know that we can live in another way. We can stop our daily ego and langage brain. We can transform from daily conscious thinking mode to listening mode to subconscious process.
We can notice that our life is resonating with the world.
But the subconscious process is so subtle. It is billions times weaker than consciouness. Then we need to separate from the pressure of infomations of adovanced society. The thinking channel with using language is our main channel in daily society. It takes so long time to calm down the thinking habit. In the process to enter the subbody mode, if thinking channel comes up, it stops subbody process at all. We can not listen to the life resonance, because it was masked by strong energy of consciousness.

Then I want to ask all students to prepare before entering the school. Please prepare by your self to calm down your ego and thinking brain through swaying menditation in every morning and evening. I think the ego and thinking is very important for you now, then it means to change yourself from the bottom of being. It need so long time. You may need for many years.

And Dharamsala is touristic town, there are so many exciting exizotic method, like yoga, reiki, body work, music, dance and so on. But if you try to learn two different thing at the same time, you must lose both. I reccomend all students to concentrate to only subbody method in a piriod if you want to get it. You need at least for three months in case of you concentrate on the subbody method, if you lose concetration you need for many years. And disconcentration disturb not only you, but the other students. Because the subbody process is also cobody process which is shared by all students.
Then please prepare by yourself in your home before the school, to get habit of every days meditation with swaying, and listening to the darkness of body.
It is OK only this one thing. Please understand this one thing is not easy to get.
