How I got into Qigong, from 1995 to 1998 - a Precognitive Time Loop!!

 I have another story for you. I saw this flyer on a telephone pole - for this Chinese lady qigong demonstration - in 1995. I was so skeptical that I called up to ask for half off admission price and another lady answered. I heard the Chinese lady in the background ok the half price. So my GF (a different one) joined me - as we lived together - and we went to St. Mary's University where the qigong demonstration was. $10 each. 

So qigong master Effie P. Chow filled the room with qi - and she had us make "qi balls" with our hands facing each other. Sure enough I felt a strong magnetic force push my hands apart!! Then as it ended and everyone was leaving this security guard lady wandered in - asking, "I'm wondering what's going on in here, because the fuse got blown in the room behind you." It wasn't staged - most people did not hear her and most people were gone and the qigong master didn't really say much to answer her. haha. 

So that started me on a quest - I went to SF the next summer to stay with a high school friend - because that's where qigong master Effie P. Chow lived and worked. But I could not afford to see her and my friend who is American Born Chinese - he said - "oh that's just for old people" and he drove me up to Portland. Anyway in 1997 I moved into an "international" rooming house by the University of Minnesota as I began graduate school. 

I was smitten by this Venezuelan lady house mate - and I had begun qigong meditation by Yan Xin - with the Chinese community at the University. And she told me how she had done qigong meditation at a community college with a Chinese qigong master named Chunyi Lin. haha. So it turns out the qigong master who healed Chunyi Lin - in that 7 and half hour qi-emitting healing lecture - was the same qigong master I was studying from - Yan Xin. I had his meditation tape. Anyway Chunyi Lin then gave a talk to my "spiritual healing" class at the University and I sat up front - I could feel heat from him as he talked but as soon as I thought that - he immediately said to the class, "If you are close to me then you may be able to feel heat." 

I knew he was the real deal. When I took his class in fall of 1999 - then he walked around to send qi into us and we had our eyes closed. He never touched us - but I heard his Shaolin "sword fingers" swishing - and suddenly I saw this bright yellow light and I felt this amazing joy and love. My GF picked me up (a third different one) - and I could not explain to her that the love I felt was better than any love we had felt between us. She said maybe this would help her mom's depression. Her parents have a big wheat farm in northern Minnesota - and her mom lived in an isolated farm house.  

Anyway so then I broke up with my GF (actually she broke up with me) and I trained seriously in qigong meditation through the AFrican Studies Department as "self-directed" nonwestern meditation. I saw ghosts and spirits and I got telepathy and precognition and healing abilities! 

Oh I forgot to tell you that in 1998 - I was living at the house of my Venezuelan friend - and she had taken me to her village in the Andes in Venezuela. And then I looked at this newspaper photo of my Earth First! activist friends standing on the roof of a house with Native Americans hanging a banner to stop the clearcutting of a sacred old growth forest at the confluence of the Minnesota and Mississippi river. Suddenly I got this uncanny sensation - and I remembered I had written down a dream in 1995.  

The dream woke me up at 2:30 am - it was MORE real than being awake! I had dreamt the same thing as that photo - of my activist friends with Native Americans standing on the roof of a house - holding a banner to protect a sacred forest. I had gotten arrested at that "Free State" in 1998 but the dream had been in 1995 soon after I saw the first qigong master Effie P. Chow. Since the dream was more real than being awake I had written the dream down immediately in my journal and I wrote - "I think this dream is going to come true." Of course by 1998 I had completely forgotten about the dream until I saw the photo - and got this sudden UNCANNY sensation. Then I drove up to my parents - where I had left my journal - and confirmed the dream indeed had come true.

Dear Drew, I'd need a book to answer your remarks, after many years to deal with your countless references, notes, connections between disciplines! I can add a remark that I think important to understand the mathematical problems of the ancient Pythagorean music theory: Greeks ignored almost completely instruments made by a neck and a resounding chamber (they used the Lyra which had got no resounding chamber), so that for them the relationship between the lengths of the string (or the weights of the hammers) and frequency was an artificial one and not a natural one (as in pre-Greek music), and so they had to create the 'canon' to study it.

 Thanks Professor Emeritus Borzacchini: Yes the "orthodox" Pythagoreans required five years of silence as listening to Pythagoras before they could "see" Pythagoras. Dr. Peter Kingsley did his Ph.D. on Pythagorean PreSocratic philosophy and he documents a spinning vortex experience as the person enters into the spiritual state. I finished my Master's Degree by doing Pythagorean meditation as Daoist qigong meditation from http://springforestqigong.com through the African Studies Department - as nonwestern meditation. So in chapter 11 of the book "Taoist Yoga: alchemy and immortality" (free online) it explains why this spinning vortex experience occurs. It literally is a spacetime vortex - and is also explained recently by quantum mechanics professor Jack Sarfatti - in his talk on antigravity propulsion and the paranormal (he worked for the CIA military)...

So Philolaus was not a real Orthodox Pythagorean - and so as Dr. Peter Kingsley argues the wisdom was lost by the time of Plato - due to the dependent on talking and arguing. From meditation I know that the energy healing has to occur in silence as right brain dominance via the right side vagus nerve. There is also a coherent biophoton spirit energy aspect to the meditation and healing. The 12 notes of the music scale are the basis of meditation as 12 energy points as the infinite spiral of fifths of the Perfect Fourth and Perfect Fifth (yin and yang). This is explained by the noncommutative phase math of music, as only Alain Connes explains. I had been calling this "complementary opposites" and indeed it was due to my early music training that I had realized this truth. When I took music theory in high school - I wondered why can't the Perfect Fifth be 2/3 as C to F (undertone) and rather it HAS to be 3/2 as C to G overtone. From my blues music experience then I had knew the difference between the Perfect Fifth as an undertone and overtone - instead of the Perfect Fourth - creating an eternal energy flowing as healing energy.

I would sit in silence at age 3 - in my mom's piano lessons - until age 5 when I started my own piano lessons. thanks

 That's a great question. So I had my own theory based on music and mathematics and Pythagorean philosophy - and so my meditation training with the Chinese healer - this was to test out my theory. So I proved to myself that my theory was correct. But then I needed to reverse engineer my theory back into mainstream science. 

So after my Master's Degree then I read one scholarly book a day for ten years. I kept researching and I discovered that my own theory was actually called "noncommutative phase" - in music. It is only explained by Fields Medal math professor Alain Connes - he has lectures on it on youtube - "Music of the Quantum Sphere." So then because all human cultures use the natural music of the Octave, Perfect Fifth and Perfect Fourth as 1:2:3:4 - and so I had translated that into Daoism and also Indian ancient music theory (the three gunas) - and again this is based on noncommutative phase. I figured someone else MUST have realized this connection to meditation as paranormal healing energy. 

  Finally I discovered Eddie Oshins, this quantum physicist working at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. He coined the phrase "quantum psychology" and he also taught Wing Chun of Bruce Lee fame. Eddie Oshins realized the secret of Neigong or "internal alchemy" as meditation is from noncommutative phase of quantum mechanics. So then I just read physics professor Olivier Costa de Beauregard's book "Time: a physical magnitude" - and that is all about the paranormal as explained by relativistic quantum physics and negentropy. So he was a member of the Institute of Advanced Study at Princeton and the CIA classified his research as he focused on the paranormal. So the CIA underlined and emphasized his paranormal research for Operation Grillflame - a project of paranormal remote viewing spying. So that's why mainstream science tries to dismiss this stuff as "woo woo" because most scientists have no idea what noncommutative phase is as a concept - and the discipline of noncommutative geometry as relativistic quantum physics.

 I have corresponded with several quantum physicists about this - and other scientists. Alain Connes just sums up this noncommutative phase as (2, 3, infinity) - it is a very simple concept yet very radical. Most people learn by rote without really thinking about basic assumptions. It turns out in music theory there is a reason that 2/3 as the Perfect Fifth as C to F undertone is not allowed in Western music theory. Western math and science is actually from the wrong music theory - I have been discussing this with math professor emeritus Luigi Borzacchini - he just published a new article that I was asked to review for this quasi-academic website - "academia.edu" haha. 

So anyway there is a concept in science called the "Infinite spiral of fifths" but it has to due also with Fourier Uncertainty or time-frequency uncertainty. Again in Western science - there is the harmonic series so that 3/2 is C to G overtone but there is no Perfect Fourth as an overtone or 4/3. So it had to be derived from a different "root tonic" or "one" note. So what Philolaus did was FLIP his Lyre around so that the octave became the new root tonic and then he created a 4/3 ratio but the 0 to 4 is actually from a different root tonic. The denominator for an overtone has to be an octave multiple of the root tonic to be the same pitch. Anyway this is the secret of HOW "irrational magnitude" math was created in Greek science. 9/8 as the major 2nd music interval was then cubed to create the tritone as the square root of two for the Pythagorean Theorem. So I was secretly AGAINST the Pythagorean Theorem in school since I knew it was from the wrong music theory. There is something called the Noncommutative Pythagorean Theorem.
