| 12 March, 2008 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. Please arrive at school before 10:00, arround 9:30, when you arrive at school, make final registration with payment for school fee to school staff, and order your lunch to cocking staff. After that keep silence strictly, and relax down your body and mind by your favorite way. School time is from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Lunch time is 12:30-1:30 p.m. Also keep silence during lunch time strictly. Just listen to life resonance with all. After class in the evening, we can exchange our innner process with short words, at that moment also you can ask any question if you have. But don't expect immidiate answer by words, you will recieve the answer through the contents of teaching through the week. See you soon. Lee P.S. Please bring your swim wear A hot spring and new swiming pool are waiting for you. There will be some classes in the pool in May. |

| 19 Febryary, 2008 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. |
