What Happens When You Die? Evidence Suggests Time Simply Reboots
Dying Soul
From the Huffington Post:
By Robert Lanza, M.D.
What happens when we die? Do we rot into the ground, or do we go to heaven (or hell, if we’ve been bad)? Experiments suggest the answer is simpler than anyone thought. Without the glue of consciousness, time essentially reboots.
The mystery of life and death can’t be examined by visiting the Galapagos or looking through a microscope. It lies deeper. It involves our very selves. We wake and find ourselves in the present. There are stairs below us, which we seem to have climbed; there are stairs above us, which go upward into the unknown future. But the mind stands at the door by which we entered and gives us the memories by which we go about our day. Everything is ordered and predictable. We’re like cuckoo birds who appear through a door each morning. We fancy there’s a clockwork set in motion at the beginning of time.
But if you remove everything from space, what’s left? Nothing. The same applies for time — you can’t put it in a jar. You can’t see through the bone surrounding your brain (everything you experience is information in your mind). Biocentrism tells us space and time aren’t objects — they’re the mind’s tools for putting everything together.
I was a young boy when I realized there was something unexplainable about life that I simply didn’t understand. I learned this from one of the last smiths in New England, when I, as a child, tried to capture a woodchuck on his property.
Over his shop a chimney cap went round and round, squeak, squeak, rattle, rattle. One day the blacksmith came out with his shotgun and blew it off. The noise stopped. Mr. O’Donnell pounded metal on his anvil all day. No, I thought, I didn’t want to be caught by him. Yet, I had my purpose.
The woodchuck’s hole was in such close proximity to Mr. O’Donnell’s shop that I could hear the bellows fanning his forge. I crawled noiselessly through the long grass, occasionally stirring a grasshopper or a butterfly. After setting a new steel trap that I had just purchased at the hardware store, I took a stake and, rock in hand, pounded it into the ground. When I looked up, I saw Mr. O’Donnell standing there, his eyes glaring. I said nothing, trying to restrain myself from crying. “Give me that trap, child,” he said, “and come with me.”
I followed him into his shop, which was crammed with all manner of tools and chimes of different shapes and sounds hanging from the ceiling. Starting the forge, Mr. O’Donnell tossed the trap over the coals and a tiny flame appeared underneath, getting hotter until, with a puff it burst into flame. “This thing can injure dogs, and even children!” he said, poking the coals with a fork. When the trap was red hot, he took it from the forge, and pounded it into a little square with his hammer. He said nothing while the metal cooled. At length, he patted me upon the shoulder, and then took up a few sketches of a dragonfly. “I tell you what,” he said. “I’ll give you 50 cents for every dragonfly you catch.” I said that would be fun, and when I parted I was so excited I forgot about my new trap.
The next day I set off with a butterfly net. The air was full of insects, the flowers with bees and butterflies. But I didn’t see any dragonflies. As I floated through the last of the meadows, the spikes of a cattail attracted my attention. A huge dragonfly was humming round and round, and when at last I caught it, I hopped and skipped all the way back to Mr. O’Donnell’s shop. Taking a magnifying glass, he held the jar up to the light and made a careful study of the dragonfly. He fished out a number of rods, and with a little pounding, wrought a splendorous figurine that was the perfect image of the dragonfly. It had about it a beauty as airy as the delicate insect.
As long as I live I will remember that day. And though Mr. O’Donnell is gone now, there still remains in his shop that little iron dragonfly −- covered with dust now −- to remind me there’s something more elusive to life than the succession of shapes we see frozen into matter.
Before he died, Einstein said “Now Besso [an old friend] has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us … know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” In fact, it was Einstein’s theory of relativity that showed that space and time are indeed relative to the observer. Quantum theory ended the classical view that particles exist if we don’t perceive them. But if the world is observer-created, we shouldn’t be surprised that it’s destroyed with each of us. Nor should we be surprised that space and time vanish, and with them all Newtonian conceptions of order and prediction.
It’s here at last, where we approach the imagined border of ourselves, the wooded boundary where in the old fairy tale the fox and the hare say goodnight to each other. At death, we all know, consciousness is gone, and so too the continuity in the connection of times and places. Where then, do we find ourselves? On stairs that can be intercalated anywhere, like those that Hermes won with the dice of the moon, that Osiris might be born. We think that the past is past and the future the future. But as Einstein realized, this simply isn’t the case.
Without consciousness, space and time are nothing; in reality you can take any time — whether past or future -− as your new frame of reference. Death is a reboot that leads to all potentialities. That’s the reality that the experiments mandate. And when I see Mr. O’Donnell’s old shop, I know that somewhere the chimney cap is still going round and round, squeak, squeak. But it probably won’t rattle for long.
“Biocentrism” (BenBella Books) lays out Lanza’s theory of everything.

Yogi for the last time, tonight.
If you ever get a chance to sit at the feet of a great mystic, a great adept, do not fail to do so.
The presence of an adept from the highest spiritual sphere and his or her discourses, produce a great effect upon the spiritual faculty of emotion in us as practitioners of contemplation.
As the listener makes spiritual progress, gradually the discourses on Truth afford exquisite delight in the listener, such delight that all pleasures of thei lowly world dwindle into insignificance. The entire discourse becomes one of pleased rapture within the seeker of spiritual perfection.
As the great mystic Kabir says, “The ignorant are not acquainted with the secret, showers of ambrosia fall with voice and words of the spiritual adept.”
Have a wonderful evening and bless all souls for their rise to their highest forms possible in this present creation.
Yours,
Yogi X
Yogi X again,
In previous portions of this treatise we have attempted to show that the economy of the human frame is not accidental, but that it is based on the economy of the creation.
The main divisions and subdivisions of the human frame’s micrcosm correspond precisely to those of the outer macrocosm, and communications between them exist by means of apertures in the nervous centers (chakras) of the human frame. Those apertures (or windows) in the chakras, or ganglia, represent access points, as it were, leading into and back out of the spheres of the macrocosm.
It would thus follow—as we’ve said before—that the currents in action which are to be found in the universe travel through the apertures when opened, and are therefore existent, in miniature, in the human frame.
We have also shown at length that all currents, that is to say, kinetic force-emanations, are resounding with sounds which can be heard everywhere if the inherent faculty of spiritual hearing were developed, which is at the start of being a practitioner, merely a latent force in our spirits.
Under those developmental conditions, we would come to easily hear the music of the spheres, and learn which ones to cooperate with for spiritual advance, and which to militate against to prevent spiritual retardance.
Our next strategic move is more clearly define our actions amongst the multitudes of possibilities as we gain access to the macrocosm’s spheres. We could tell you what beautiful sounds and lights to start with and follow, and what to ignore, but that will not have the same lasting training effect as learning why we have to learn a specific strategy.
So, that is next. No one said being a sprititual warrior was easy. But then again, my friends, there is no easier way.
best and good evening,
Yogi X
Yogi here early for you,
More on sounds of the universes.
Each sphere of the cosmos is maintained by a central power of presiding deity, which constitutes the reservoir or focus of power or vitality peculiar to that sphere.
The force-currents prevalent in the sphere take their rise from the presiding deity, and sounds peculiar to those currents accompany them.
We have similar currents in our body in the nervous center (chakra) which corresponds to a particular sphere of the outward, surrounding cosmos. These currents are not, however, active in the same way as the currents coming out of the presiding deity of that sphere.
The human body’s currents perform cettain functions peculiar to the sphere in respect of the maintenance of the physical body; but the subjective functions, e.g., perception, comprehension and regulation are latent.
Now, if we were to repeat internally a sound which is an imitation in articulate speech of the sound emanating from the presiding deity of a sphere at the foucus of the chakra center corresponding to that sphere, the vibrations set up therein by process will, as the process advances, come into harmony with the vibrations in sounds already existent in the sphere.
When the unison or concord of the two sets of vibrations is complete, they would commingle and respond to each other like a tuning fork which is in harmony iwth a musical instrument.
The subjective functions and powers of the deity of that outside sphere would then be imbibed by the human body, and the great force which the diety wields in his sphere could be set in motion within the practitioner, at the will of the practitioner.
We shall stop for the moment and let you imbibe this practical step in the spiritual science.
Talk to you soon,
Yogi X

I just got back from another celebration (belated) of my birthday in the local village. I will talk to you all soon, about the establishment of this creation. It’s a fascinating subject!
Yogi the Bare X
Yogi X here,
It’s been a long day here in mountain jungle land. I’ve had this overwhelming need to summarize where we are at based on previously presented science-oriented observations, logic and proofs, as the case may be.
First, we have a human that is far more complex than most worldly oriented observers are willing to comprehend.
Second, using a computer analogy,the body consists of the physical mass (the hardware), the mind (the system software), the mind / body sense apparatuse (application software that controls our observations, actions and reactions), and the soul-currents (the electric power source). We call this whole conglomeration of super parts, the human frame.
Third, the human frame has numerous whirling energy centers called chakras or ganglia. The ‘lowest’ chakra on the totem pole is the elimination chakra that is intended to keep the body cleansed of toxins. Next up on the hierarchy is the procreation of the species chakran. Third up is the digestive chakra which distributes nutrient flow to the human frame. Fourth up is the solar plexus chakra which regulates the body’s entire economy, rhythms and feelings, etc. The fifth ganglion is the throat chakra which regulates the bodies respiration, and the sixth chakra is the ganglion located roughly between the two eyes. This chakra is the seat of the diffused human spirit that supplies the sensory and motor currents to the body.
Fourth, to begin the spiritual warriors path, we must (while living) pull our attention from the body’s senses up to and past the sixth chakra. This is often called by mystics, “dying while living”. Every yogi, adept and above must make this journey.
Fifth, we will summarize the higher chakras (ganglia) that exist above the eyes and between the two hemispheres to the brain. Since this is the internet, the summary of these higher chakras will follow shortly.
Cheers to you all, brothers and sisters.
Talk to you soon. Yogi X
Before Yogi continues, I needed to see doctors today. The subject (unexpectadly?) came up about miracle healings. Two doctors brought it up to me, completely out of the blue.
The doctors observations after decades of practice is that there is something magic that sometimes goes on in the human body that medical or other science cannot explain.
They asked me what I thought about it, and all I could answer was “Him”. They nodded in satisfaction and concurrently said, “We agree. Sometimes it is just his will.”
I never mentioned Yogi X, or any of this treatise he is providing for us. But the doctors’ further comments said they would tend to agree with Yogi X.
Sorry, I shouldn’t have interrupted.
Mr. Tom
Yogi typing,
Before we move on to summarize the energy centers (chakras or ganglia) in the brain we should summarize a bit of the creation first.
Sixth, this worldly creation we live in is just one, tiny, miniscual speck in one far corner of the the galaxy we call the milky way. If this world is one tiny speck, imagine how infinitely small one human is compared to the Milky Way.
The Milky Way is just one insignificant, minor galaxy in the billion (if not trillions) of galaxies that are beyond the view of our most powerful, man-made instruments.
All of these billions, if not trillions, of galaxies are contained in just one part of the lower creation we live in (mystics call it Pind). Our small part of Pind is enclosed in a spherical-shaped part of reality. Think of gumballs in a glass bowl. The sphericle glass bowl is a small part of the total creation (macrocosm) called Pind. All of the gumballs withing Pind are spherical shaped “objects” that each contain their own array of millions, billions, or trillions of galaxies.
Now, there are multitudes of Pinds in this creation, each one loaded with gumballs, each gumball loaded with galaxies, each galaxy may or may not have an earthlike entity that can support life.
To make matters more complex, there are multiple of spherical, glass bowl shaped Pinds that are part of a next larger bowl, called Anda by the mystics. The common Western name for Anda is, “the Astral World”. But the complexity problem becomes even more difficult. There are multiple upon multiple Astral Worlds (spherical Andas, each with multiple upon multiple Pinds.
This explosive view of the creation continues upward and outward, all spherical shapes that are part of greater and higher spheres. You can begin to see how insignificant one human frame is, stuck way in this infinitely small corner of a corner of a corner of the creation.
Is there small wonder that an accomplished Guide is needed to escape back to our True Home? Is there no doubt in your minds how easy it would be to get lost in the creative maze without a True Guide who knows the way and has traveled the way both outwards and inwards?
And yet, in spite of the complexity of ouor prison house, the human frame is one of the most significant objects, one of the most powerful instruments, one of the greates Houdini escape mechanisms, in the total creation, which expands far beyond Pinds and Andas.
We are going to explore that more, but even a summary has to be in bite-size chunks.
We will continue this summary a bit later, then put it in perspective of being a spiritual warrior so you will have a logical, practical solution to freedom.
Your good friend,
Yogi X
Yogi X here,
I had a very difficult day for a Yogi today. I am pleased to hope you will let me finish the summary tomorrow your time.
I also hope you are getting the tiniest idea of the complexity we all face. Fortunately, there is a way out. And we are getting there for you.
Warmest meditations,
Yogi X (Mr. Tom’s Yogi the Bare, of course)
Yogi X again,
To make your thought processes more boggled, what if the whole creation is spinning and dancing? I briefly watched internet video of country dancing. People spinning, dancing, crashing, quitting, joining, taking bathroom breaks …. on and on. What makes our tiny little human frames with their out-of-control minds think the massive spheres of the macrocosm and all it contains is any more sane than a Texas dance floor? Or a Holi fest?
It is so easy for a tiny fly on the wall to get confused and lost in a ‘happy’ dance. What makes one think it will be any better for a lonely soul — even a spiritual warrior — trying to conquer the the creation and get to its True home?
No, a successful Guide is what’s needed.
But we need to continue the summary of where and why we’re at — to sort focus out of the mass confusion.
Talk to you soon,
Yogi X
Yogi speaking,
We are going to take one more — what seems to be — a slight digression. But it isn’t. It is one more important hole to fill. It is called Blackness — ether or aether — apparent nothingness.
The blackest of the black, mystics call it the veils of death.
Every sphere of the creation, the macrocosm is surrounded by immense veils of blackness, death our puny minds call it. The puny minds are not all wrong.
If we go outside at night, we see the stars, the moons, perhaps planets, galaxies… and what separates these heavenly bodies? Dark, black space, filled with who knows what. Are there shortcuts throught this chaos? Black holes? Time tunnels or warps? Bypasses? Mystics know. The more spiritually advanced the mystic, the better they know.
Next, we’ll summarize how all these Pinds, Andas, and black aethers fit in the second grand division, the Universal Mind, also known in the East as Brahmand.
Chat with you soon.
Yogi X.
Yogi X here again,
As you can begin to see from the above series of posts and the summaries immediately preceding this post, the creation we abide in (albeit it one tiny, miniscule corner) is much more complex and diverse than Dr. Lanza and his Biocentrism can ever imagine, no less Dr. Kahn and his end-time physics.
This is not to fault those two bright gentlemen and all the other physiscal scientists with equally bright intellects. It is merely to point out the limitiations of the mind that resides in the human frame, and its reliance on physical instruments like telescopes, microscopes, MRI’s, CAT Scans, space shuttles, moon walks, etc., etc. that are used to analyze the human existence today.
These instruments and the minds behind them are all important in their own rights, but are merely small stepping stones in the understanding of the cosmos and our location in such. But the truth is, for every small step, the questions get larger. Soul science makes gigantic, leading leaps over the limitations of the mind.
With that said, the next post will examine our summary of the mind and its position in the hierarchy of existence.
See you shortly (or tall-ly, if you are tall)
Yogi the Bare X.
Yogi X at bat,
The Creation has two major Grand Divisions if you will. The first Grand Division is the nearly purely (I like those two english words together) spiritual one. The Second (and lower) Grand Division is that fundamentally of Brahmand, or, the Division of the Universal Mind — often called by mystics, the Causal Region — or Trikuti.
We understand the region of the Universal Mind is complex, but our intention here is merely give a summary overview to keep it in context with the human frame. Spiritual warriors plan on going far beyond this Second Grand Division.
The sphere of the Second Grand Division is largely egg-shaped. It contains many Andas and Pinds within it (Astral Regions and worldly universe regions).
The Mind’s true home is in the part of the Universal Mind called Trikuti. The name Trikuti comes from a reference point for spiritual travelers’ called “the three prominences” located at the top of the Universal Mind sphere.
The soul departs the mind and its limitations in Trikuti as it travels higher. Spiritual adepts keep their departed ‘mind stuff’ in a suspended state as they travel higher (or further outward) on the journey to their True Home to converse with the Supreme Creator. When the spiritual adept is required to return to Brahmand (the Second Grand Division) he or she picks up their mind stuff in ‘suspension’, re-dons it and continues downward to the whatever Anda or Pind they have been directed to go to.
It should be noted, at this point in time, that all karmas for all souls — except perfect adepts, incarnations or saints who have managed to travel to and through the First Grand Division — are stored in the Universal Mind, with active real-time karmas trickled down to the Astral (Anda) diluted mind, and then down to the highly dilluted Pind mind that resides in the human frame.
Karma means “for every action or thought, there is an opposite and equal reaction stored somewhere. The reaction may be immediate, delayed some, or stored until somed distant time in the future (which often is another lifetime.
In summary, there are three categories of karmas. First is the karmas from the past that control our current destinies. Second are the new karmas we create while in this life. These can often be burned or balanced quickly. Third are the stored karmas, the karmas we just don’t have the time or opportunity to balance during this lifetime. In the main document, I called these “Santa Claus’” growing bag of stored karmas that keep us trapped within the sphere of the Universal Mind.
What we call Perfect Guides, Perfect Adepts, Perfect Incarnations — pick a name, it is only another false guise of the human mind — these Beings who travel to and from the spiritual regions at will, are, no surprise, karmaless.
To escape this prison house of the Cycle of 84, we need the company of a Perfect Guide, who can lead us through our maze of karmas the crazy twists and turns of the Second Grand Division — those very items that were designed to trap us down here in this world of terrible limitations.
On the next post, we’ll begin to talk about the spiritual regions — unless during my meditation I am given modified insturctions that I left something critical out of our summary.
Peace and good will,
Yogi X.
Yogi X (Mr. Tom’s Yogi the Bare) speaking,
Just beyond the sphere of the Universal Mind (Trikuti) is another immensely spherical dark (make that black!) region spiritual warriors must travel through.
This incrediblye deathly black region called Sunn is the perfect barrier for all souls confined to the lower regions. This includes the souls of angels, lower sphere deities, and lower sphere adepts.
All souls from the lower creation are trapped except those under the guidance and protection of the incredibly powerful light of the Perfect Guide.
According to the mystics who can cross this uncrossable expanse, Sunn is first spiritual sphere the soul will encounter on its journey home. This sphere is empty, completely devoid of all matter in any form.
Upon entering this region of Sunn, the soul becomes free of the bondage of matter and mind and all that those attributes contain.
The sould gets the first glimpse of true and perfect knowledge. But it is not home yet. There are still fascinating spheres to conquer, only conquerable with the aid of a Perfect Guide — all the while practicing his or her teachings with love and devotion.
The spiritual warrior has arrived at and become a member of a select group (selected by Him a millenia of centuries ago) that are called spiritual adepts — that is, spiritual adepts in the early stages.
As the Perfect Guide whisks us across Sunn, more surprises are in store.
We will talk about these things tomorrow.
Have the best night’s rest,
Yogi X
Yogi X here,
The spiritual region beyond Trikuti and Sunn is called by mystics, Daswan Dwar. The region of Trikuti has 10 gates, 9 of them open into various levels and sub-regions of the Universal Mind. The all lead to circuitious nooks, crannies and traps to keep us locked away from pure spirituality.
But there is a tenth gate leading out of Trikuti (the Universal Mind). This gate is locked to all but the spiritual adepts and those under their direct guidance. This locked gate is named Daswan Dwar door for behind it is the pathway to and through Sunn (see above) to the next spiritual sphere region, named after the gate, Daswan Dwar.
When the soul escapes the lower spheres and regions of the mind, it is in a battered, bruised and scarred condition from the eons stuck in the mind’s karmic regions of the Cycle of 8,400,000 species, the Cycle of 84.
A battered, bruised and scarred soul is in no condition to survive the purest of pure vibrations in the lap of the Supreme Creator, the soul’s True Home.
The soul must be cleansed and purified; the scars, bruises and batterings must be removed lest the soul get torn asunder by the higher, ever purer spiritual vibrations. This purification and cleansing takes place in a golden temple, with many healing baths in an immense pool of amritsar.
There are many wonderful stories about this healing process, and though the process and results are the same for every soul who makes it this far it is a personal and private journey for each.
Eventually the soul is ready for the next great leap in the healing and purification process.
That will be next.
Warmest regards,
Yogi X
Yogi X?
What are some of the weirdest things we’ll encounter on your spiritual warriors journtey?
T.V.
Excuse me, Yogi X — I meant “journey”.
Yogi here, “journey” is accepted.
Funny things along the way… hmmmm.
Well, as we explained before in our San Antonio to Dallas via freeway example, the main path is the same for everybody. The main milestones are the same for all.
BUT, there are incidental (often almost non-consequential) differences along the journey. Of course, everything has some karmic impact, or balancing. But we all don’t have the same karmas, so the matters-not-so-much stuff doesn’t matter much on the spiritual warriors journey.
Think of swimming in the same part of the ocean. You swim today and you encounter a group of jellyfish. I swim in the same place tomorrow and I encounter a pod of whales. You saw jellyfish. You never saw whales. I saw whales, I never saw jellyfish. Does that mean we’re both wrong? Or both right? Well, on the spiritual warriors’ path, both are right. Just different timing based on different karmic balancing needs.
Now, as far as wierd things in the second Grand Division of the Universal Mind sphere and below, the same passions are in control as here on earth. Lust, anger, greed, attachments to things, and ego drive the souls. At different rates, perhaps than here on our earth. Because of these five controlling passions, the Astral worlds that many religions that have fallen out of tune with the mystics they are claiming to be ‘theirs’, weil these religions call these regions of the passions ‘heaven’ or ‘hell’. But the same fights, wars, arguments, petty jealousies, etc., etc. continue ad infinitum. Why? Because it is all part of the mind and its extensions.
To me, that was very weird. I fully expected (was brain-washed by religions) nothing but peace and tranquility in lieu of any payback called ‘burning in hell’.
The spiritual warriors’ path I was drawn to gave me the first inkling (make that proof) that most worldly religions were no more than the blind leading the blind, all for the blind leaders’ profits and comfort.
That is not to demean the mystics the religions claimed as their own, but to show that those who followed, filled with earth with false claims, false hopes, misunderstood belief systems because the blind leaders had NO internal experience on the spiritual warriors’ path. They had no understanding—as the great mystics did—of the powers of the human frame. It was a very disappointing awakening for me, but one that shouldn’t have been unexpected.
Other weird things? There’s a bunch, but a couple stand out, and fit at this level of the discussion.
I loved what I call the “polywog” people. Polywogs are baby frogs with large heads, tapered bodies and miniscule extremities like arms and legs. The faces of the polywog people are absolutely recognizable as human — in many cases humans I had known in this or previous lives. Please don’t ask me at what level I saw them. I was just there, and they were there — sort of like the jellyfish I mentioned above. I’ve seen them a few times, but it is very intermittent.
One other site that amazed me was the 2-D people. NOT 3D like us, but actually 2-D. They were people shaped from the front and back, but they could not be seen from the side. They were almost like really well drawn cartoons on a page, from a thinness standpoint, but they were absolutely human. Just flatter than pancakes as you say in the West, or rotis, as we say here in the East.
There are many more things that are dazzling, things our worldly words have trouble describing and our eyes cannot see and our minds can’t comprehend until we develop higher frequencies of our inner spiritual currents, thus opening new vistas of reality.
Best to you all,
Yogi X.
Yogi X here,
I might add, both the “polywog” and the 2-D were the sweetest, curious human forms, a delight to observe and communicate with. Communication was not audible, but in almost a mind-to-mind, or soul-to-soul manner.
From a scientific standpoint, I have met and talked to other mystic “trainees” who had similar experiences with similar groups of beings, all though there were more of the 2-D type experiences that “polywogs”.
Yogi X
Yogi here, blabbering again,
I thought I’d add one more weird thing. Bank Nal — the crooked tunnel.
About the first time I ran into Bank Nal (my spelling) I about made a mess in my white britches, effectively turning them from jungle cave white to saffron orange-brown, if you know what I mean.
Eventually, all souls that want to go to higher regions, higher spheres, have to traverse the crooked tunnel, the passageway between the Astral world and the Universal Mind sphere.
This crooked tunnel is one of the first indications we normal, everyday souls need an advanced spiritual guide, an advanced adept who knows what he or she is doing.
You, the spiritual warrior, will have to face and overcome every fear and trepidition you’ve ever had on the worldly plane in order to travese Bank Nal. I mean, every fear. The mind will generate every fearful concept it can think of to STOP your progress. If you have a fear of spiders, you’ll see zillions. If I have no fear of spiders, I’ll see none. If you have a fear of drowning, you’ll flooded in the crooked tunnel. If you have claustrophobia, you’ll get more than your share of claustrophobic events. The individualized list goes on and on until the Guide helps you conquer every fear — many of them generated in previous lifetimes and buried deep in your memory banks.
Most souls, if they should ever happen upon the crooked tunel’s remote entrance, turn back in fear to remain forever trapped in this creation of birth, growth, pain and death.
Only a learned adept AND an overwhelming desire to be forever with the Supreme Creator will get the average, everyday soul past this barrier.
But, it is achievable. And worth every second of struggle.
Talk to you soon,
Yogi X — Mr. Tom’s Yogi the Bare, of course.
Yogi X here,
Mama and baby elephant are back for a quick visit they say. While I chat with them, we would like you to review in your mind the complexity of a mechanical escape from the horrors (scattered randomly with some delights) of this dungeon we are trapped in. Then think if it could get worse — which it will — and the escape more difficult — which it can — and is there anything to overcome our sad situation — there is.
That is next on our agenda. Baby elephant is squealing for attention.
Yogi X from the jungle foothills of the Himalayas.
Yogi X — Don’t ask me why baby elephant wants my darshan. I am nothing but a simple, low-level messenger. Even baby elephant is greater than this thing called me. But, I was given this work — I will be back with you all soon to look at the next step.
It is going to be really great when you find out how this complicated mess we’re stuck in can be overcome so simply
Y-X
Simple, but sometimes long and tedious.
Yogi here once more,
When our soul is sufficiently cleansed and healed, it is time for the next step in our great adventure — leaving Daswan Dwar and crossing Maha Sunn.
Sunn is the spherical region of blackness before (or below, or less than) Daswan Dwar, the spherical region where our wounds and scars from being in the lower spherical regions of mind and matter, including the Universal Mind (Trikuti), the spherical Astral domains (Andas) and the globs of tiny universes inside the astral domains (called Pinds by mystics). Our world around us is one tiny speck in one corner of one galaxy in one of the many Pinds.
Maha Sunn (the Great Sunn) is the next spherical region above, beyond or the outer layer of Daswan Dwar. It is called the Great Sunn for an obvious reason. It is such a massive spherical shaped BLACK region that Daswan Dwar, Sunn, Trikuti, all the Andas and Pindas fit in it like a tiny speck in the center of a giant beach ball.
All of the area above (beyond, above or out of) Daswan Dwar is complete, utter, almost impassable blackness.
It is said by mystics that a cleansed, purified human soul has the brightness of up to suns (the sun that our earth rotates around). Even that brightness is totally lost and absorbed by Maha Sunn’s blackness.
Only a Perfected Guide has the power and brightness to transport (carry) a soul across this massive void, to the next stage. I personally have no experience with how the Perfect Guide handles these situations. I am totally comfortable riding as an incompetent baby in the Guides massive sphere of light and music. What could I do otherwise? Be another lost for eternity, wandering in the great blackness, poor soul? That is not my idea for a good time.
I have also heard there are other Brahmands drifting about in Maha Sunn. If one gets trapped in one of those Brahmands, it is but a matter of time before one falls once again into another Cycle of 84 somewhere in the creation.
That’s a depressing thought to me. But like I said much earlier, with this blessing of the human frame and a Perfect Guide taking pity on us, or being directed by Him, there is an escape. We are getting ever closer. Hang with me.

Sometimes, mystics have reported finding powerful lost souls wandering in Maha Sunn’s blackness, the lost souls attracted to the Perfected Guides brightness.
Post => It is said by mystics that a cleansed, purified human soul has the brightness of up to [12] suns (the sun that our earth rotates around).
I’m sorry my friends, I missed the brightness of up to twelve (12) suns.
My worldly typing is not as bright or fast as my soul brain.

Yogi X back again.
Riding for what seemed like earth months in the Spiritual Guide’s great ball of light was not uncomfortable. Look at the great company I had. Plus, while my spiritual part was traveling, I ended up simultaneously back here on earth, physically attending to my business (some would call it my monkey business — there are lots of beautiful monkeys in this low Himalayan jungle).
How these things happen in parallel is fascinating, but factual. When I drop into worldly meditation, my inner self — my soul spirit — awakens in the latest far sphere which access I’ve achieved. We will talk more about that a bit later.
Suddenly, in the midst of one deep meditation, I woke up in a swirling, whirling cave. Clouds of stars and universes, it appeared to my stunned senses, where whirling around me at dizzying speeds and distances, forming the “walls” of the cave.
The smiling voice of my Perfected Guide came across my shoulder, “Look, look straight ahead. Ignore the cave walls, they are only confusing incidentals. Look out the opening, the cave mouth, straight ahead.”
There, far in the distance was an absolutely bright light. Home.
“You still have some time to spend in the healing powers of this whirling cave, listening to the most heavenly strains of music,” my Guide’s voice said. “Then you will be heading to new adventures in your True Home.
“That said, you are now in what mystics call Bhanwar Gupha — the revolving cave. When awake here, keep your eyes on our final goal, Sach Kand, the true and imperishable region and our spiritual home. In worldly time, your senses will adjust to the whirling and spinning, and its effects will no longer distract the soul’s comprehension, so long trained by the insanity of the lower parts of the Creation, Pind, Anda and Trikuti, and lower yet creations. You can discuss those further on, though they are no longer meaningful in Sach Kand.”
Talk to you soon, my friends.

Yogi speaking,
We have talked at some length in earlier posts about the human frame’s close links tying the macrocosm of the total creation to the microcosm portholes, if you will, in the human body.
We called those portholes, chakras,or energy centers if you recall. We also talked about those chakras being windows on the different levels of the macrocosm, in addition to being portholes or doorways we can travel in and out of while the human frame is still alive.
Each chakra, or energy center, leads to one sphere on the greater creation. The lowest chakra was the elimination energy area where the body gets rid of its fecal waste. The next chakra up was the procreation porthole, etc., all the way up to the multiple chakras situated in a row between the two hemispheres of the brain.
We stated that to view or travel in and out of any chakra into the associated, surrounding sphere, we had to clean the chakra sufficiently so that that the vibrations at that chakra level within our human frame matched the frequency vibrations of the creation’s sphere outside that human body.
When a particular chakra porthole is cleaned and prepared, we can then travel at will in its associated sphere if we set the appropriate vibrational frequency in motion.
One thing we only alluded to without discussing in detail is that cleaning method and the way to keep that porthole clean and vibrationally pure. We talked briefly about sounds, but we need to address something equally fundamental or we will never succeed.
We need to address our human spiritual warrior lifestyle that will enable us to be continually attuned to the selected, appropriate frequencies for macrocosmic travel.
That will be our next topic.
Peace and patience be with you,
Yogi X
Yogi here,
This is the start of addressing a human spiritual warrior’s lifestyle in order to succeed on this great journey.
As we have discussed in above posts, the human frame possesses a microcosm set of windows (chakras, energy centers) that perfectly mirror the outside macrocosm. It is only the human type frame that has the chakras PERFECTLY ALIGNED so the spiritual traveler can proceed to the higher spheres of creation in an orderly and safe manner.
Since we live on the worldly plane of existence, Mother Earth in our case, from a spiritual point of view (an organized, in-line chakra point of view) the human frame is considered the top of creation. What that means, again, is the organization of the human frame’s chakras, when properly cleaned and tuned, make the human body a perfect microcosm mechanism for access to the macrocosm (the Creator’s creation.
Second in the downline from a chakra point of view, is what we call the animal frame. From a simplicity standpoint, the worldly animal frame has chakras that are similarly aligned as the human frame, until we get to the higer chakras. In the animal frame, these tend to be jumbled and mis-aligned, preventing the perfection of spiritual awareness, viewing and travel.
Again, from a simplistic point of view, third in downline are the flying creatures, for example, birds. The bird chakras are even more misaligned than the animal frames.
Next in the chakra downline hierarchy of jumbled chakras are the crawling critters.
Finally, on the worldly plane, at the bottom of the chakra is the plant kingdom.
The more active the chakra organization is, the more pain and suffering is felt by the worldly being. The human frame has the greatest amounts of feelings, with the animal frame not far behind. At the very bottom of the ‘feelings’ reality is the plant kingdom.
Included in the “feelings realm” are insight, awareness, pain, pleasure, etc.
Having an awareness of this concept is invaluable for the spiritual traveler, the spiritual warrior.
We shall go deeper into this importance in the next post,
Enjoy,
Yogi the Bare, that is, Yogi X
Yogi X back again,
Why is the human body called the “temple of the living God”?
Because it is, as we mentioned in the previous post, the only biological structure on or in this this worldly plane (and many of the spherical planes above, or outward fron ours) that can be used as an instrument to free the soul from entrapment so it can return to its True Home so far away.
I shall repeat again, the soul’s True Home, Sach Kand. is free from all levels of the mind and all the illusions and entrapments that spew out of the mind’s preferred activities — Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachments and Ego. Do any of those sound familiar to you the reader? And/or, those around you or those you witness on your local media?
We all average humans are caught in the same boat of despair, floating with only brief moments of relief. It is even worse, much worse, for souls trapped in creatures even further down the chakra line of descent.
Before we get into that, I will share a story with you about our futility. This is a holy man’s story as shared with me:
He was driving his car on a busy, one-way street in one of our fine cities. A light up ahead turned red. As he stopped several cars back, he noticed a large beetle jumping off the curb to his right and heading across the street. He watched the beetle zig zag amongst the tires adorning the multiple lanes of cars. The beetle was making great and wonderful progress, almost glowing with pride and elation at its success. At last, it passed under the car ahead of him and popped out on the free side, close, ever so close to the safety of the next curb. Beetle crawled up the curb just as the light turned green. Safe! Ah! Success!
A large black crow sat on a light pole above the safe curb, intently watching the progress of Mr. Beetle. When Beetle arrived safely and stretched with pleasure, Mr. Crow swooped down from the light pole, caught Beetle in his chops and swept away proudly packing his lunch, Mr. Beetle.
The Holy Man shifted his car into gear, oblivious to the honking of horns all around him, and drove slowly away — thankful his chakras were in order and being well taken care of.
We are all beetles or crows in this life, UNLESS we are drawn to the Perfect Guide. And even then, we must polish an clean ourselves and our human frame for Him or Her to be successful with us.
No beetles or crows aside, that is next. But as you read it, NEVER FORGET, we too can devolve back down to beetles and crows, or lower on the chakra food chain.
Speak to you soon,
Yogi X.
Yogi here,
There is one thing I’d like you to think about before we proceed.
Where in the chakra “food chain” would you like to be?
You have choices, you know.
Do you want to be the plant that got turned into the light pole in the previous post?
Or perhaps do you want to be of the beetle class trying to cross a busy intersection?
Maybe, just maybe, you want to be in the black crow’s position, sitting on and pooping down the side of the once plant, now turned light pole, watching and hoping the beetle makes it to your side of the road?
Then again, you can be the cat sitting on the nearby human garbage can waiting for the black crow to make a mistake catching the beetle, a mistake like stopping to eat it on the spot instead of being city-wise and flying away with the beetle in its beak.
Perhaps, you want to be in the human frame sitting in the comfortable automobile watching this circus going on while cars and motorcycles are blowing their horns to get you moving.
Or would you rather be calmly and coolly above the worldly fray, alive like a swan floating on a lake == in the lake, but not part of it; able to fly away from the fray at a moments notice. Better yet, by full and independent choice.
The last choice is the spiritual warror’s. This can ONLY be achieved by the upcoming, simple disciplines. It will be your choice. Think over night my spiritual children.
Yogi X
Yogi X here once again,
Discipline. A terrible subject for most human minds. But, one we must address.
Let’s start by thinking of a car or motorcycle windshield. We can see through it when it’s nice and sparkly clean.
But what happens when it gets coated or covered with rain or muddy trash? We can’t see through it. We can’t use it as a guide to keep our vehicle on the straight and narrow, safe path.
Well, it’s the same with chakras. These small windows in the human frame (we’ll discuss more about them later), well, these small windows get covered and smeared with the trash of life. When they are filthy dirty, it is impossible to tune the human frame’s soul currents to match the chakra (energy center) windows, so we can’t see clearly out them, no less meet our ultimate goal of getting our consciousness to travel through them.
So we have to clean the chakra windows. And work constantly to keep them from getting re-clogged. This takes some practical, relatively easy, disciplines for the human body.
Discipline #1.
We must consume not alcohol or mind alterning drugs — the one exception is should take doctor prescribed medicines.
There is NO ALTERNATIVE for this discipline. The reason for this first discipline is alcohol and mind altering drugs cause confustion, disorientation, lack of clarity an drowsiness among other problems. These side effects clog the spiritual current pathways, making them non-passable.
Using the auto windshield example above, our view of the macrocosm gets and remains is caught behind fogged windshields (chakras) of the human frame microcosm. Progress to the higher regions is absolutely blocked.
If we must imbibe in mind altering substances, including drugs, don’t bother becoming a spiritual warrior. You will be totally unhappy with the lack of results.
Next, we will address the next discipline in an internet bite-size chunk.
Smile friends. It is all worth it.
Yogi X
Yogi X here again.
Now, we are going to talk about discipline #2. For some this will be an important (but necessary) hurdle. For others it will be no bid deal, no more than a small price to pay to achieve the great victory.
All of us are to a great degree, products of what we consume, what we digest, and what becomes the building blocks and energy provisions of the human frame.
Most humans conveniently imbibe whatever is closest to our gullets. In some cases, like that famous American criminal, Jeffry Dahmer, it includes WHOMEVER gets closest to our gullets.
In order to be a spiritual warrior, we have to eat the lowest item on the chakra food chain. That represents being a vegetarian. Spiritual warriors DO NOT eat meat, fish, fowl, eggs or anything with animal essences. Instead, we eat vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, etc. Why is this?
The higher beings are on the chakra food chain, the more they feel pain upon being slaughtered. That pain mixes with the spiritual currents flowing through and ebbing from the dying body. That pain is a terrible negative karma.
Many react and say, “What about adequate protein?”
The Great Mystics respond, “The largest, strongest animal frames on this planet are all vegetarian. That includes, elephants, cows, horses, bision, hippos, and on and on. The get all of their protein from plant sources.
Okay, but what is the harm, the spiritual science behind being a vegetarian?
All animal, bird, reptiles, fish and even insect forms experience descending degrees of karma in their lives, and pain when they live and die. Ever see a roach or ant run like heck to avoid being squished? It is inherent in their consciousness, and insects are just next up from the bottom of the chakra food chain from plants. Pain and distress increases the further we climb the chakra food chain of creature life.
Felt pain is stored in the fibers of the creatures. When we eat those fibers, that flesh, we absorb part of the pain and karmas of the creatures we’re eating. That will impede our spiritual progress, for how do we know what the active karmic is of the creature we’ve decided to eat?
Plants are at the bottom of the karmic food chain. Yes, plants are aware of their surroundings to a certain degree. Their karmic load as a plant is very small. They don’t feel a lot of pain when plucked — so a vegetarian lifestyle means the imbibing the minimum amount of another beings’ karma.
Since we as spiritual warriors have to start our journey in the human frame, and the human frame is here on this world, and in order to spiritually succeed we have to maintain this human frame, then we have to eat something. So we eat the least painful, least karmically active lifeform, plants.
Being a vegetarian becomes easier every year, with a broad variety of products to choose from. However, the spiritual warrior will read labels and consult with other spiritual warriors on how to interpret the labels.
Oh by the way, you will NOT be alone on the spiritual path. You will be amazed at the number and scope of spiritual warriors you’ll get to meet, both male and female.
Cheers and smiles, Discipline #3 of 4 is next. This is not so bad, huh?
Yogi X
There’s a heaven and a hell. We choose where we go after death by the way we live this life. If you’re not convinced, then ask God to show you. Trust me. He will revealed it to you.
Yes, Robert, there is a heaven and hell; in fact, there are multiple heavens and hells. But if you read these posts, you’ll find that most heavens and hells are associated with lower chakras, chakras from the Universal Mind and below.
Our goal is to rise above those levels — rise to the region of pure spirit, the True Home of the pure soul and God.
So you are right in what you say. Just expand your horizons if you have not already done so.
This whole exercise we have been going through is for the more inquisitve MINDS in the increasingly technical world. This is all about unlimited Soul Science, rising far above the pre-programmed belief systems of the mind. Belief systems so many call religious dogma; belief systems others call agnosticism; belief systems others call anti-christs; belief systems other might call — well, there are thousands if not millions of options.
To be who we are, to live who we are, to rise above the mundaneness of this world,
the astral world, to become in harmony with the pure, infinite, omnipresent, and omniscient vibrations of God, we must escape this lower prison of the mind. And we train the mind to help us. It eventually becomes our best friend.
Thank you Robert, and warmest greetings to you.
Hey Robert, Sometimes going mall shopping with my wife is a clear example of “hell on earth”. Conversely, escaping at the end of a miserablle day seems like “heaven on earth”. Oh, God, are we talking about the same thing?
P.S. I know this is a serious subject, but I have a IED headache today.
Yogi here once again,
And Robert, one doesn’t have to secrete oneself away from the world–way out here in the Himalayan foothills, for example–to have the experience you allude to. We will discuss this more at length in further posts.
Again, warmest greetings to you.
Yogi X
Yogi X here again,
Welcome all. Today, we are going to talk about Discipline #3 for a spiritual warrior. We are going to start with a brief tale from the mystic East.
As often happens is this region of the world with the profoundly felt tradition of mysticism, when adults get to the age where their children are grown, they tend to retreat into a world of self-exploration. They are pulled to answer the questions like ‘who are we?’ and ‘why are we here?’.
Often, the adults who feel pulled to answer these age-old questions have come from very busy householder, business and social lives. Their minds have gone nuts from the noises, hustles, and bustles of daily life. They see their life essence beging to drain away, and the questions have gone answered. Many of them disappear into the mystic Himalayas to find peace and quiet to explore their inner selves.
Let me suggest it is not necessary or always desirable to retreat from society to fulfill this quest, but it is what often happens on the Indian sub-continent.
To get back to our abbreviated story, one man retreated to the lower, jungle laden mountains and turned from living a life of luxury in the city, to that of a sadhu –a holy person who is following a path of spiritual devotion in a very simple life. He lived in this jungle for many years, becoming a devotee who gained the region (the sphere) of Trikuti, or the Universal Mind. That was an immense task he fulfilled, and like most devout people who had NOT yet conquered the mind, he was proud of his no small achievment. He decided it was time to visit his family and the city to show them he had not been a fool.
He crossed the jungle until he came to a wide, slow moving, but deep river. He needed a ride across the river. The river ferry man who owned a small boat was not available, but his beautiful, make that absolutely gorgeous, daughter was, and she volunteered to pole the sadhu across the river.
Midway across the river, a giant fog rolled in, blanketing the whole area. They lost all sense of direction so the young maiden stopped poling and the boat stopped. They would wait until the fog lifted.
The beautiful young lady stared in amazement at the sadhu, recognizing the man she had witnessed as a young child when her father originally brought him across the river to the jungle.
The sadhu and the maiden fell into a conversation. The fog blanket remained. Before long, they were holding hands, and you know where this is going. Procreation of the species was set on fire.
By the time the fog lifted, the ex-sadhu and the maiden were in a deep embrace of worldly love, the lower chakras were highly activated, energy and karmas were shared, and Brahm was smiling in self-satisfied joy.
In the matter of minutes and a beautiful face, the years spent in the jungle, and all the spiritual gains, were tossed away. That is the way of the world.
There is a way around all this mess, and it involves Discipline #3. That is next, you can only guess where this is going.
Talk to you soon. It is time for tea and roti.
Yogi X
Excuse me folks, I got caught up in Yogi X’s story and forgot my editing. Isn’t that the way of life also?
T.
Thank you Mr. Tom. This world is a creation of mistakes along with successes. You are allowed to make a few booboos.

the whole theory that only what we observe is real is silly. something can still exist without having consciousness observe it. now if i’m dead can I observe it? no but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exsist. time was created by the human mind to keep track of the past, present, and future. so what? can the galaxies and the universe still exsist without consciousness. i would certainly think so. they probably did for billions of years. as for einstein he confused the observers preception of reality with reality itself. reality exsists and will continue to exsist after we’re gone. observers preceptions of reality are sometimes inaccurate with actual reality. there’s no bigger truth than that.
Thank you Ronnie. You hit that nail right on the head. What you say is among the many reasons Biocentrism is short-sighted. Okay for what it is, but far less than what WE are! Far less than what the Macrocosm (total Creation) is. Just because our limited minds can’t view or measure something, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
The reason for this series of posts is to give the Western curious mind a logical, scientific explanation of WHERE it needs to direct itself, to prove to its own satisfaction what the realitiy is, one small step at a time.
Meanwhile, I for one am not (and have not) going to sit around waiting for a bunch of ‘blind’ intellects trying to decide what’s real or not. Especially when we ALL can prove it with the right kind of training and practice. It’s the only way that makes any common sense.
Thank you Ronnie, I appreciate your feedback and clear thinking.

We need a slight digression that leads us into Discipline #3. We need to discuss the concept of kundalini.
The spiritual warrior does not look at kundalini as a magical power, but just one more of the natural forces in the human frame — a force partially used for procreation of the species — that should only be safely and fully aroused after the practitioner has been prepared by training in self-control and mind purification.
The kundalini is a natural coil of energy that lies at the base of the spine, slightly above the lowest chakra, the elimination plexus. When aroused, it rises up through the central canal of the spine, unwinding serpentlike on its path to the brain. Out of control kundalini energy can ‘set the brain onfire’.
The great mystics also say that without proper training, arousal of the kundalini will dissipate and deplete the human frame’s spiritual energy needed for day-to-day functioning plus to rise to higher spiritual spheres.
When the kundalini rises to the brain, a series of changes occur in the consciousness, particularly in the areas of emotion and feelings. The great mystics say that the untrained in kundalini technology can easily suffer illness, insanity or death. How can this happen?
Think for a moment of the kundalini being a five foot long piece of string, lying coiled on a table. You want to move it from Side A of the wide table, across to the other side, Side B. If you try to force the kundalini string across the table by pushing it (as most untrained or partially trained students do) you will end up with a tangled ball of string somewhere between Side A and Side B. A tangled kundalini ‘string’ can cause all kinds of problems in the human frame.
However, if the practitioner is trained properly, you will effectively learn to walk around the table to Side B, and gently grab the end of the string and pull it across the table. The string follows smoothly and easily with no tangles or confusion. and no danger to your health or well being.
On this scientific path of the spiritual warrior no such problems with health or well-being can possibly occur, because the kundalini is not permitted to be fully awakened until the practitioner’s inner cleansing is complete. The kundalini uncoils and rises smoothly and easily from above the elimination chakra up the spine to the chakras between the two hemispheres of the brain.
Just as importantly, the contolled kunalini is directed to the critical chakras in the brain hemispheres that allow great spiritual advances, far beyond what most yogis ever dream is possible.
With this brief, but accurate explanation we will be able to proceed to the next post, that of the practical Discipline #3.
Talk to you soon,
Yogi X
Yogi here again,
Now that we have a grasp of the functions of kundalini, it is time to talk about Discipline #3 for the spiritual warrior. It evolves around the issue of lust.
Lust is a normal function for the procreation of a species, but when it becomes an abnormal demand on a human frame, it becomes degrading and destructive. It pulls and keeps its human victim down to the level of the animal. As for the spiritual warrior, it reverses the energy path from the highest spiritual chakras down to the lowest animal chakras. Spiritual advance can easily be ground to a halt as lust obliges the human frame to fix its attention on the one thing that is most common to both humans and brutes.
But, it has an even greater problem. Because of the vast energy transfer between two copulating human frames, karmas flow sometimes one way, sometimes the other and sometimes back and forth. Who really knows what karmas sexual partners may have buried in their human frame’s energy system? Most of us are overloaded with good and bad karmas. The good karmas act like golden chains to this creation, the bad karmas are rusty, painful iron ones that bind us down here. So what is the solution the great mystics recommend for all but a few of the strongest souls?
Discipline #3 is if at all possible, to live a householder’s life. Be married. The positive give and take between married couples is a self-balancing act. Energy is shared and returned. Karmas are already intertwined in a balancing manner, so the odds of being locked further down in the chakra food chain are minimized to nearly zero if the other three disciplines are followed. Let kindness, respect, patience and love for your partner and your relationship prevail. Even in what seems to be the most difficult of karmic times.
Let your lust naturally take its course to extinction. Because of the severe spiritual dangers enunciated above, never partake in sexual activity outside of the marital relationship.
No one said the higher chakra path is the easiest course for the spiritual warrior, but it is the only one. Discipline #3 becomes a simple measure to follow, though it is not always easily followed. Hand it over to the Perfect Guide when he or she comes into your life, and live happily with the results.
Next, we’ll move toward Discipline #4. That will really get your attention.
Sincerely, Yogi X
Yogi X speaking (typing) again,
In preparation for Discipline #4, it is a principle of psychology that whatever the human mind dwells on, that thing becomes a part of the individual. We grow like that up which we contemplate.
Remember, the more vividly the thought process dwells upon something, the more that individual becomes like what is dwelled on.
Happy dreams and contemplations this evening.
Your friend indeed,
Yogi X
Mr. Tom for Yogi X
“We grow like that up which we contemplate.” should read:
“We grow like that upon which we contemplate.”
Oops! T.
Yogi X, I’m a miltary veteran and of course, this was essentially started as a veteran’s site — though it has surely grown beyond that. Many of us veterans were put in positions where we had to fight for our lives, kill the enemy and often whether intentionally or not, might have been involved with what politicians and people in command lke to call “collateral damage”. How do we fit in this grand spiritual scheme of yours that is unfolding before our eyes?
Thank you in advance, I hope it isn’t too difficult a question.
Texas Grunt
Yogi X here,
My dear Texas Grunt, there is no question that is too difficult to answer when it is based on sound spiritual science. I am fully aware that many readers on this site are former military personnel.
Your worries that a military person’s career is inconsistent with the spiritual science we are addressing in this post is not sound. A soldier is like a sword in the hands of a commander. The sword is not responsible, and the soldiers have not to account for their actions. The responsibility rises up the chain of command to where the buck stops.
I’ve scanned on this journal, and I believe the buck often stops at what Mr. Duff often calls the REMFs, whatever that means. They are the sword wielders.
The military person’s attitude does have some bearing on the subject. If he or she is doing their duty as ordered, no problem. If they RELISH the job for reasons including lust, greed, or ego, they move into a gray area.
You see, the human body is called the “temple of the living Lord”. That means only in the human type frame are the chakras properly aligned to permit true God Realization while alive. It is our responsibility to care for and nourish the human frame so it can achieve that, if and when the time is right. In the case of the military person, that also means that at times the “temple” must be defended.
One Great Mystic served in the British Army in India during his youth. He served as a foot soldier. During the day, he fought as ordered by his commander, but he had no hostile feelings towards his combatants. In the evening, when the war was ‘retired’ for the day, he would go among them and they respected him as a sage.
There are many times this soon-to-be Great Sage would sit in his foxhole at night, meditating, and the ‘enemy’ would gather around him in a circle and meditate with him. In the wee hours of the gray morning they would retreat back to their lines to prepare for day’s battles.
It is all about attitude, and this soldier sage’s Perfect Guide was in perfect control and took responsibility for all consequences.
When a soul is destined to find a Perfect Guide, this destiny is set in motion long before the soul is born in a corpreal body. It might seem like we are in or out of control, but the Perfect Guide takes over in place of the deity(s) running these lower worlds. these lower spheres of the creation, long before this birth.
So, Texas Grunt, to answer your’s and others’ questions on this same subject, what has gone by is history. It can’t be changed. And in most cases it was beyond, usually far beyond, your control. Just do your duty as ordered, and as best you can, and leave the results in His hands.
Yours,
Yogi X
It’s Yogi X again,
Everyday as we move through this experience called life, we naturally create new karmas along with the burning of our destiny karmas. It is best to think of this life as one of creating new karmas, and try to avoid them whenever possible — since we never know what is destiny and what is new.
We walk across the floor and squish a tiny insect and we incur a miniscule amount of new karma. Our interactions with people, our encounters with animals and birds, our meals, our breathing, whatever we do — we will create new karmas. The law of accidents discussed earlier, makes it inevitable.
This brings us to the subject of Discipline #4.
Before the average soul can rise above this lower creation of the sphere of the Universal Mind, all karmas, destiny, stored and new must be balanced to zero. We must have zero debts owed to us, or owed by us, cancelled.
How do we do this? How do we neutralize all these debts we owe, are owed, or created new by just living here? By meditation as prescribed by a Perfect Guide.
Those of us who are active religiously or charitably are familiar with the demand to tithe to the organization of our choice. Tithing is an easy concept for most of us to understand, or even reject. Most tithing is considered to be in the realm of 10% of one’s net income.
The Perfect Guide will require meditation tithing of about 10% of the day. No money, no wealth, no worldly things, just 10% of the most valuable thing we have here on the planet earth, time.
A day has 24 hours. Discipline #4 says we must meditate about 10% of the 24 hour period, or roughly 2.5 hours per day to meet the minimum requirements of keeping new karmas at bay and progressing smoothly on the spiritual warrors’ path.
It turns out that 2.5 hours per day (or night) is really quite easy to do. It is simply a matter of prioritizing one’s schedule — a matter of either putting God realization while alive in the human body first, OR, putting the world first. It is your choice.
I myself started many years ago, before the Perfect Guide found and attracted me, with 15-20 minutes per day. It worked for relaxation and some mental clarity. The Guide’s requirement was an easy step up, as I had already experienced some worldly benefit from the small amount of non-spiritual, mind meditation.
Tithing 2.5 hours per day is most easily done when one lives a householder’s life, carrying out one’s daily duties. and living a life of forgiveness. It can also be done in a Himalayan jungle cave, but that is not the most desirable way for most of us.
Since I am trying to do Internet sound-bites, we will talk more about meditation later. It is the critical key to being all we can be.
Have a nice day and evening,
Yogi X
Yogi X here,
Now that we’ve laid out the four major disciplines we must use to cleanse our bodies and minds of the filth of multiple lifetimes that has kept us mired in this lower creation, we will move on to discuss chakras and sounds in more detail.
First, lets reiterate the four disciplines that need to become a part of our lives.
Discipline #1 We must become vegetarians, i.e., we must NOT eat meat, fish, fowl, or any other animal life, including eggs. We understand there are unfertilized eggs, but we can never guarantee the quality of the egg providers, so we don’t want to develop or maintain a taste for them.
Discipline #2 We must consume no mind altering drugs or alcohol, or products containing them, as these potions cloud the chakras and block concentration.
Discipline #3 We must limit our sexual relations to a marital type arrangement to minimize energy loss and karma sharing and absorption.
Discipline #4 Once the Perfect Guide has contacted us, we must learn to meditate 2.5 hours per day per the Guide’s instructions. This meditation consists of developing concentration, opening certain chakras and doing sound practice.
This we will talk about in more scientifically oriented detail, next.
Enjoy,
Yogi X
Yogi here again,
I need to add to that last post that I started out on the spiritual warriors’ path slowly and gently. This easier way was and is, okay for me. Some people are tougher than me — I acknowledge that — they can go “hardcore” with the disciplines immediately. I’m not like that. I’m totally average and a typically weak human being. What is my strength is my loyalty and dedication to what I commit to.
I honestly didn’t understand what I was up to at the time. The Perfect Guide had not visibly entered my life, though I didn’t know the Guide was that sixth sense inside me that was in absolute control. Looking back now, the Guide’s presence was as clear as a bell.
Becoming a vegetarian was a staged process for me. One day, red meat became nauseating. Months later fish became distasteful. Then fowl. The last to feel uncomfortable in my body was eggs. I never ate chocolate ants or choclatized spiders, so that was never an issue for me. I still lived in the city then. After the Perfect Guide arrived, he slowly taught me to read labels, looking for animal essence like lard injected into commercial products.
I never drank very much. I liked occasional wine with dinner, especially at restaurants. One day, red wine started making me uncomfortable. Months later white wine followed suit. Mind altering drugs were never an issue in my life.
Probably my biggest issue with these four disciplines was lust. As a young man, every female was a target for my one-celled lower brain (I’m sure most of you know what I mean). Getting married and leading a householder’s life solved most of that issue. Getting somewhat older contributed to the solution also.
Meditation as taught by my Perfect Guide, redirected my energy flow and gave me results which strengthened my resolve in the first three disciplines.
Everything the Perfect Guide told me would happen, should happen as I progress, has happened. And I am just average, yet I became a solid spiritual science instrument. Some of you out there on the end of this internet vine are so much stronger spiritually than I was when I started. You will have unbelievably fast verification that the Perfect Guide’s method works.
So, don’t worry about implementing the four disciplines. They will come naturally for those whose time in on the near or far horizon.
Talk to you soon about sounds.
Yogi X
Yogi X here,
As we find ourselves examining the spiritual science behind sounds we can hear internally, and use to help guide our practice and way, we’ll quickly review the concepts of microcosm and macrocosm.
To mystic scientists, macrocosm means the absolutely monstrous pure spiritual sphere that contains all of the creation in ever smaller, fully encompassed spheres. The more advanced the adept is, the more magical the macrocosm creation is realized and thus is available to be explored.
Traditionally, microcosm means minature world. The human frame is a microcosm, and inside the human frame is a collection of smaller microcosms, each one providing access to a related outward universe. We call these smaller human frame microcosms energy centers, or chakras — also, when properly tuned, windows or doorways into the larger, outward universes.
We as humans, are not so isolated from the ever larger universes as we have come to believe. The ability exists within us, when properly activated, to totally interact and travel throught the maze of outer universes, outer and larger spheres of the creation.
This includes not only physical worlds like other planets and galaxies in what mystics call Pind, but also the Astral worlds (Andas), the even larger spheres of the Universal Mind and even the higher (further out, much larger) spiritual creations.
Every particle in the vast creation of encompassing and expanding spheres works in complete harmony with each other. Tapping into the correct part of this harmony is our goal. That means we must work with this human frame instrument that is our body, this complexity of flesh, nerves, brain, chakras and spiritual currents to create that harmonious existence.
“The human frame,” to borrow from another mystic, “is indeed the microcosm, complicated and wonderful in structure.”
Let us enjoy the next ride of harmony.

Yogi X typing,
There are many microcosmic centers in the human frame. Each center (chakra) has the potential to be both a small window, and passageway, into a universe sphere that is in tune with the nature (frequency of vibration and cleanliness) of that particular chakra.
We can view the lineup of chakras in the human frame like a very tall ladder. Each rung of the ladder represents a chakra. Note, the rungs are not evenly spaced. Each rung (chakra) has its own particular frequency (vibrational) range of action.
We will discuss many of these chakras from a knowledge point only. Many are irrelevant trap holes, designed to keep us from our ultimate goal, realization of the true perfection of our souls.
The beauty of having a human frame, is we are already more than halfway up the ladder when born. If we want to get to the top, why climb back down to the bottom rung (chakra) and begin working our way back up? Why not just start climbing from our natural, human frame rung of consciousnes?
As we progress, we will let you decide. Keep in mind, if you awaken halfway up a mountain and you want to climb to the top, why would you first waste all of your time and energy climbing down the mountain first, then turning around and climbing back up, eventually getting to where you started from, with the peak of the mountain still far ahead?
Hey, we can all do what we want to, huh? Even be foolish.
Dwell on that. Talk to you soon.
Yogi X
Yogi X here again,
We are going to start counting our chakras up from the bottom. Like I mentioned in the previous post, this is the lowest rung of the ladder, giving access to a lower sphere in the universe.
Chakra energy slits are more or less round in shape and their main parts are called petals by mystics. The lowest chakra has four petals and the number of petals increase as we rise up the human frame’s chakra ladder.
The reason we are starting at the bottom rung (chakra window or passage) is because each petal resounds with a distinct musical tone. The total number of sounds (petals) in the lower human body, as we will soon see, totals 52, the exact number of sounds of the 52 letters in the Sanskrit alphabet.
When the fine sense of inner hearing is tuned, one can hear each distinct tone, and the ancient rishis and munis, listened to the tones and assigned the letter codes.
As we stated above, this is for reference only. These lower, coarser chakras and their tones are of not great interest to the spiritual warrior. But they help give a vast underpinning and understanding of how far up the human’s consciousness may be, in addition to establishing the pathways for manual science of the future.
Next will be the first step on the rung of the inner chakra ladder.
Peace until then,
Yogi X
For the first time, Mr. Yogi X, my life is falling into a pattern of organization. Thank you so much for your good work.
Charlie from California
I agree Charlie. And from my experience it only gets better. Building one logical block on top of the other.
Thx Yogi X.
T.D.
Yogi X here.
As we talked about previously, the four great divisions of reality are the physical spheres (Pind), the astral spheres (Anda), the Universal Mind spheres (Brahmand) and the purely spiritual spheres which we haven’t named, but mystics call the Sach Kand spheres.
Our normal human awareness is at or near the top sphere of Pind; our attention is centered at the eyes when awake, sinks to the throat in sleep and to the solar plexus during deep slumber.
One great adept likened the speed and struggle to rise up the spheres as moving like an ant in Pind, skittering like a spider in Anda, swimming like a fish in Brahmand and flying gracefully like a swan in Sach Kand.
The lowest human frame chakra is in Pind. It is frequently called the mul chakra; it is situated near the rectum and it governs elimination. If we contemplate on this chakra, our speed of climbing success will be like an ant struggling up a wall, slipping and falling and struggling again. If we make it to the mul chakra, we will find 4 petals, each resonating with a different tone. If we synchronize our attention with the lower frequencies of any of these 4 petals, we can exit the body into a much darker, very coarse, physical universe.
Now, it is no mean feat to do this, but it is an immense waste of time and energy for the spiritual warrior. This is the lowest rung of the chakra ladder.
We will step up to the second rung of the chakra ladder shortly.
Be well,
Yogi X
I’m shocked by all the comments, considering the article is replete with illogical nonsense. For example, “Quantum theory ended the classical view that particles exist if we don’t perceive them. But if the world is observer-created, we shouldn’t be surprised that it’s destroyed with each of us.”
Quantum theory hasn’t definitively proved anything, least of all that particles don’t exist if we don’t perceive them. Taken at face value, this fact-constructivism implies that, despite the forensic evidence, Ramsees II could not have died of tuberculosis because the bacillus responsible was not discovered until 1882. If an unexplained event takes place, like a particle accelerator exploding, it did not happen because the subatomic events were unobserved. Is there a sound when a tree falls deep within some woods beyond human hearing? Such heavy stuff.
The whole point of such constructivist flapdoodle has nothing to do with science, although many in science profess to believe it because of their political views. If no claim to objective knowledge is better than any other, and if all facts about the physical world are social constructs, it follows that no culture or society (understood to mean Western civilization and Christianity) can make a truth claim superior to any other. This was and remains the pseudo-philosophical underpinning of progressivist movements like multi-culturalism and post-colonialism. Taken a step further, it maintains that meaning itself is meaningless beyond interpretive communities; that is, what is true for one group may be false for another. But unless it can be shown that the epistemic principles of one system are in actual fact incompatible with another, such that propositions in one system are not translatable into the other, then truth is not relative nor physical reality socially constructed. The relativists and fact-constructivists have been unable to show this, proving they have no grounds to deny the classical view of fact-objectivity and moral truth. They claim there are no absolute truths, which aside from the absurdity of making an absolute assertion denying itself, is refuted by the world around us. Here’s one they can wrestle with: The speed of light is greater than that of sound. Since pygmies in Borneo may not be familiar with the concept, maybe they determine the distance to lightning by counting the seconds from when they hear the thunder to when they see the flash.
Hi Dan,
Thankyou for responding. All these comments have been a fascinating journey. It started when Mike Leon posted Lanza’s article (I believe he received from his Mom). It shot up to 17,000 – 18,000 hits overnight.
I guessed it showed that people are interested in three main things in life, death, money and taxes (and probably practicing procreating the species is a close, but short-lived fourth.
I read it, and similar to you, I thought it smacked at best being short-sighted,and more likely severely limited B.S. So I started responding to the comments as a humorous lark. Then the comments got more pointed, basically asking why I would disagree with Dr. Lanza’s (MD) point-of-view.
The responses to my responses were basically, “be clear, be clear.”
So I turned it over to my old friend who values his privacy, Yogi X, whom I laughingly have called “Yogi the Bare”.
He agreed to be clear, to build the age-old soul science with step-by-step logic in a clear, modern way. His soul science, if you will, is completely verifiable by any human being using proven scientific methods of repeatability across a variety of human frames with a variety of intellects.
Yogi X and I communicate through a non-public channel and he asked me to be his editor, since his English is British-Indian.
Yogi X has developed quite a following on of all places, Veterans Today. I’m just his moderator.
He told me he is in agreement with your principles and he will respond to them when the current monsoon raingusts have stopped — probably I’ll post them this evening.
I myself find it rather fascinating in the article when Einstein is quoted, “Now Besso [an old friend] has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us … know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.”
To me, this means Einstein would have loved Yogi X’s non-religious explanation of the weirdness the human condition is caught in. AND, the definite escape path for those who are ready.
Thank you Dan. A good job of commenting.

Good to hear from you, Tom. I didn’t give my comment half the time I should have considering the importance of the subject, whether there is life after death, a reality beyond that physical world which can be observed and measured, and so on. Not that my comments are anything special. A professor of philosophy and student of Richard Rorty, Paul Boghossian, has written a rebuttal of fact-constructivism, relativism, etc., “Fear of Knowledge,” one impressive little book. As Jamie Whyte says in his Crimes Against Logic, “It’s a rare foray into gobbledygook that does not begin with a tribute to quantum physics.” Dr. Lanzo apparently thinks by alluding to a field about which he knows probably next to nothing we will come to believe what we would otherwise dismiss as nonsense. Wait to hear from you.
WOW, We have gone from a Vets site to church. It does seem to be a lot more than needed. If I read all that stuff I would not know which turn. I can find better stuff at my local church. This is my opinion and I stick by it. SEEVIEW
Actually, seeview, I appreciate your comment. Yogi X will also respond to it after he speaks to Dan’s points.
But, my point is — and the reason I purposely got involved in this — is “church” stuff, as it turns out, can be very divisive on a worldwide scale.
Most of the world’s countries are founded on, and roil and boil around, some philosophy that is either pro one religion, or pro another religion, or anti-religion. What has this led to? War after war after war.
Yes, some of the wars are based on economics, but generally behind every economic scheme is one religious scheme or another. In almost all cases, the Great Mystics upon which ill-learned followers have established religions, would probably turn over in their graves, or ash piles, if they saw how their teachings were abused for lust, anger, greed, ego or attachments to worldly things. They would moan in great pain if they saw how their teachings were used to justify murder, rape, pillage, torture, slaughter… you name the words.
That said, seeview, Yogi X’s position is that all great Mystics, all great Adepts taught the same truth: Mankind is much better than this. Mankind has so much more potential. The human frame is the greatest instrument, conceived in the image of Perfection, yet, polluted by the mind and senses.
That pollution leads to war, war, and more war. That pollution leads to one mankind disaster after another. It leads to constant squabbling and bickering. It leads to greed and theft. It leads to distrust and division.
Is there a better way? We certainly know what mankind is doing sure in the hell isn’t working. It is just leading us down the path to a for certain WWIII. How stupid. In WWIII most of us in the world will die, whether from weapons, starvation, lack of services, lack of healthy water, whatever.
I know, seeview, you don’t want to read these posts by Yogi X. No problem. It is not your time. It is not your desire.
But we as human beings HAVE to develop a new operating philosophy; not a philosophy based on heresay and hope for’s like we have today. We must have a logical, practical way of approaching humanity’s problems — a way that can be proven to work. Our intention is to clean up humankind’s beachhead one trash piece at a time.
Yogi X will probably put it a bit differently, but he and I tend to be on the same page when it comes to this world’s craziness. As would Einstein today, as he observed before he died, “… this is a strange world”.
Thanks, seeview. Tom Dillman First Cav Vet; non-church person.
Yogi X here,
We are going to take a brief respite from the logic and development of the “chakra ladder” in the human frame to respond to Mr. Dan.
Actually, Mr. Dan, your original comment and your response to Mr. Tom were both clear and logically to the point.
When Mr. Tom asked me to read the article and comment on it, I wasn’t shocked. This is a world we live in that is run amuck by the lower mind, which is controlled by a series of higher minds that also are out of control — themselves (if you will) held in captivity by the human frame’s senses.
Even most of our brightest minds are trapped in this prison. Many of them, like Mr. Lanza, and many others are struggling to put this all in perspective: to become free. They often grasp at any popular straw to make their hopes appear to be a reality. Using quantum theory is one. Using string theory is another — though it is still not on the “popular” list yet, a list that sells books.
Unfortunately, most of the world does not realize the gateways to true freedom are within us. Hardware, system software and application programs are lying latent within us, waiting for guidance to be properly activated.
Mystics have other names rather than simplified “computer lingo”. But the thinking is along similar lines, though the Great Mystics and Adepts have much broader meanings than our worldly computer limitations.
As for the quantity of responses and continuous daily hits on this subject and this unusual non-religious Veterans website, it says one thing to me. People want to have a formulation of truth, not political talk, not religious talk, not work talk, not gossip, but just plain people talk about who we are, what we are, where are we going, and can we have any control over our results.
People don’t want to hear the blind leading the blind. The world is full of that nonsense. They want to know about themselves. They want to be fulfilled themselves. They want real self-hope, not politcal razzle-dazzle.
We don’t have to be rich to be fulfilled. We don’t have to own ‘things’ to be fulfilled. We just want to realize WHO we are, and WHAT our potential is, and HOW we can realize or reject that potential.
We are ALL in the same boat for this short time we are here in this human frame on Planet Earth. Spiritually we are all the same, no matter what our sex is, what our skin color is, our wealth or lack of it, none of these things matter. When it is time for our last breath — we want to lift our heads to acknowledge we were the best spiritual warrior we chose to be, or even not, if that is the chosen case.
I hope Mr. Dan, this is useful. Thank you for your bright comments. If my answer (without repeating Mr. Tom’s) is useful, please feel free to comment again.
Sincerely,
Yogi X (Mr. Tom’s Yogi the Bare
)
Yogi X here,
I need to respond to “seeview” comment before we move on.
Seeview => “WOW, We have gone from a Vets site to church. I can find better stuff at my local church. This is my opinion and I stick by it. SEEVIEW”
Yogi X => First, seeview, thank you for your comments. They are useful in that they are a perfect reflection of the lazy mind.
I am not the one who has taken the Vets site to a church site. Look at the VT headlines today and the past week. I am not judging whether they are real or not. But we have Zionphobes, Islamphobes, Christianphobes, Hinduphobes, etc., etc., all trying to score political points to get their chosen way. If that isn’t “churchism” or “mosqueism” or “templeism” or “synagoguism”, what is?
In fact, 50% or more of the VT website evolves around the “blind leading the blind”. So what does Mr. Tom say he likes the site, and the partially blind people?
It is simple, and I agree. Interspersed with all the emotional are real nuggets of useful information for Veterans.
Now, Seeview, I think it is perfectly okay for you to attend your “local church” —if you have one. If not, it is okay to pretend. Or to pretend you don’t. It is more of the mostly blind leading the blind, with occasional inspirational insights for the curious mind. You can also pretend, seeview, the world is working just fine the way it is. I don’t think so. Wars, rapes, pillages, massive thefts, genocide, gas chambers, nuclear horrors, honor killings, etc., etc., the list goes on.
—-
seeview =>It does seem to be a lot more than needed. If I read all that stuff I would not know which turn.
Yogi X => And seeview, you think you know which way to turn now? It seems only Mr. Gates’ oligarch elitists do. Greed and grab, no matter the price. For them, the ends justifies the means, whatever the means may be. They are minds gone totally mad. And what waits for them at the end of this life? You don’t want to know.
Or, if you want to find out, you would spend the rest of your life as a spiritual warrior — as a person who wants to “experience” the true Unified Field Theory, even if you care less about the mathematical and physcial science intricaties.
There are some brilliant humans who read this everyday. They are tuned to unlocking the secrets of life and death. There are others who just want to be the best they can be, while still alive in the human body. I understand and support them whole heartedly.
As for you, seeview, I support you also in whatever you want to do with your life, as long as it doesn’t hurt others. You see, the end DOES NOT justify the means.
Best to you and repost if you’d like.
Your good friend, whether you know it or not, Yogi X
