For years I’ve had quite a few martial artists ask me to write a book specifically for martial arts, but I could not do this until I had the materials in “The Little Book of Hercules” out in print. Now their request has finally been made possible with our new ebook:

Internal martial arts neigong

One of the various ways in which people can enter the path of spiritual cultivation is through the road of martial arts training and practice because in high level martial arts, you begin to cultivate your chi. From that point on, the path of spiritual cultivation is then a path of reality rather than theology and blind belief. You prove its nondenominational truths to yourself because you can start to feel your chi, and start understanding what the ancients taught about chi in martial arts texts. The Chinese martial arts movies you see on TV, and even modern western classics like Star Wars that emphasize “the force,” are all referencing chi cultivation in various ways. The same goes for cartoon shows like Naruto and Dragon Ball Z.

On the martial arts road to the Tao, called “Tao-gong” in the MA traditions, you start with learning the external forms or exercises. Then you progress by practicing mild forms of qi-gong, which is integrating the wind chi of the body with your movements. With enough expertise, finally you enter in the deep route of nei-gong, as explained in Hercules, where you are truly cultivating your yang chi and kundalini energies. This happens after all your channels and chakras start opening, and is equivalent to the Completion Stage of Tibetan Buddhism, as The Little Book of Hercules explains.

(If you still have not picked up The Little book of Hercules it is available at http://amzn.to/owVIRu ).

To explain this advanced route of martial arts cultivation, which is far beyond what’s found in most texts, we have put together this 70+ page ebook for martial artists. If you’re not a martial artist, you may still find this road of practice interesting because it explains many things that people often wonder about regarding the inner energy cultivation techniques of martial arts, and how to attain these special abilities which are now starting to be documented on TV. This level of teaching, however, goes far beyond those special abilities.

If you want to find out how and why martial artists are supposed to be able to fly through air, strike with incredible force that can shatter rocks, walk on water, and all sorts of things like that – which are basically samadhi attainments combined with martial arts – then you might want to pick up this book, once again with one-of-a-kind information found nowhere else.

As just a small help for those who are practicing anapana for their spiritual cultivation, I’d like to offer this small excerpt on anapana from the book:

If you let go of your body, you’re not holding on to it. Hence all your chi can start arising in your body and opening channels because you’re not holding onto any muscles or sensations that would interrupt or block that natural flow which you just allowed to happen.

This is the actual secret behind the “dissolving blockages” methods of martial arts, but very few realize this secret or its usefulness for the highest levels of martial arts attainment. By witnessing without attachment you can know where energy blockages are within your body. By shining awareness on them without grabbing, they will simply open.

Anapana is the highest secret of Zen school dhyana-samadhi practice, that transforms the physical body, but few know this fact either. Whether for martial arts attainments or high spiritual practice, anapana helps open up the chi channels in the body, and thus helps transform the physical nature quicker than most other cultivation techniques. But not if you are pushing or holding on to your chi …

Here’s the main secret. You cannot open up all the tiniest of chi channels in your physical body unless you let go of your chi by cultivating any empty mind through meditation. That detachment, which means you are not interfering with your chi, allows it to flow freely without mental entanglements that would bias its circulations through habitually used, incorrect channel routes. If you cultivate a mind of detachment that is not enforced blankness or thought suppression, then your channels will open. If you try to force them into opening, you’ll always miss them as you cannot force chi into the tiniest channels.

Force will simply shunt energies into the largest already opened pathways, which is why force, and visualization of chi orbits, is not the correct way to truly open the chi channels of the physical body. You train and practice, letting go all the while, and finally your real yang chi will arise and do what it naturally wants to do without interference. That’s when it will open up all the proper channels as explained in “The Little Book of Hercules.”

At some point of true nei-gong practice, after opening up all your major channels because you attained the true stage of macrocosmic circulation, your chi will start running through all your large channels simultaneously, and you will feel this full body circulation everywhere. It will continue to do this for years, and only slowly will you make further progress from just the time involved in the prolonged rotation. If you lose your chi through sexual dissipation, naturally the force of this rotation will be reduced.

To progress quickest at this level of attainment, you need to meditate to reach a higher stage of letting go, at which point a new degree of yang chi seems to arise, and it can purify even further. Even more channel routes will open from this achievement that cannot be opened in any other way. This is a time when practicing such Zen and Vedanta techniques that cause you to detach from all the skandhas really bear fruit. They seem like incredible hurdles of practice, but only if you reason through “What was I before I was born,” “I am Awareness-only,” “Everything I see is just my mind,” and use such insight realizations to let go of everything, only then can you jump several stages of detachment so that even more channels and chi routes in the body can open. This necessitates a whole book in itself because of the complexities, so I can only give the barest of explanations as this is the stage of Tao-gong cultivation.

Progress in chi cultivation will proceed very slowly unless you strive to attain a new stage of emptiness realization, and for each breakthrough in learning how to let go of our thoughts and the body, the response will be like a new sudden kundalini arising within. That new arising will open up yet more channels at a higher stage of refinement, although the initially new rotation feels like a slow movement in molasses since more channels are opening at a new level, and the new rotation of chi will constitute a higher level of purification.

As you proceed on doing this at higher and higher levels of refinement, you can eventually transform your entire body into chi, at which point you will become able to make it appear and disappear at will, as many great Buddhist monks and Taoist practitioners were said to do. This is one of the highest levels of martial arts achievements. Since chi and consciousness are linked, one will then start to be able to cultivate the really miraculous martial arts capabilities mentioned in ancient stories.

Therefore if you want to attain a higher stage of practice, wherein a yet higher, more refined, more etheric, purer level of chi is reached, and many more channels open, the rule is that you can only do so by cultivating a higher stage of emptiness attainment by a new level of mentally letting go of chi and consciousness. The body is not you, so let go of it and its energies. You are simply pure awareness without a body, pure consciousness, and you have been holding on to the body and mind and identifying them as your self. Consciousness is not you, but just thoughts that arise and pass by, so you learn how to let go of consciousness through meditation practice, and since chi and consciousness are linked, with each stage of letting go a new level of chi rotation can commence in your inner etheric subtle body. A new level of bright mind or empty mind, or shen, can be reached as well because consciousness purifies as your chi purifies. The cultivation of the body and mind proce
ed together, step-by-step, through this route of practice.

Anapana is a practice of watching or witnessing while letting go and refusing to attach to the chi energies that are witnessed. People think anapana only refers to the physical breath, but after the internal embryo breathing commences, this refers to chi flows and chi circulations within your body as well, which can only be felt at the higher, non-introductory levels of practice. It is very similar to the Taoist practice of “inner viewing.” If you can witness your entire body as one unity of chi, through anapana practice, you will connect the entire chi of the body in one unity or whole. You will feel, witness, see or realize the body as one single body of chi extending from the trunk to the arms and legs and including the head – all one single body unity whole. So just witnessing will enable an opening up of all the tiny chi channels that will link the body’s unconnected or slightly obstructed channel orbits and produce one unified inner chi body. This will, of course, link the energies of the upper and lower regions of the body, and so you will be able to feel them as one unity in terms of an inner chi body, which is one of the necessities in martial arts practice. It is an infallible technique for integrating the upper and lower torsos into one whole, stressed time and again in martial arts traditions.

After all this time, The Little Book of Hercules, which shows you exactly what to expect will happen to your body as you make progress in meditation practice, is finally here. “Little Hercules” is not so little, but is actually BIG.

It’s a whopping 400 pages chocked full of new information on chakras, channels and kundalini, as well as special cultivation techniques, that has never been in print ANYWHERE. It should be called the “BIG” Little Book of Hercules because of all the rare content. I decided to just keep adding information since I wanted one book to answer the countless questions that continually arise concerning gong-fu and the physical stages of the spiritual path from all the different cultivation schools. If you have a question about what happens to the physical body on the spiritual path, and the problems you’re encontering if your practice has advanced, it’s probably in here. 400 pages is double the size of our last book, so grab this early bird special before the price on Amazon.com rises in one week.

The five editors who worked on the book each said that this book will blow open the field of spiritual cultivation because it reveals what has previously been considered the “secrets” of the path – including the mechanisms behind the visions people experience in various traditions as they start to cultivate their body.

What’s inside?

If you want to know ALL the stages of a kundalini awakening, this book is for you. What people normally consider a kundalini awakening is just a tiny fractional part of the process, as it starts in some stages you are probably experiencing right now but don’t know it. This book takes you through the practices you can use to open up your body’s central chi channel (the sushumna) on through to the actual sequence of chi channel openings that occur (such as the microcosmic and macrocosmic circulations) in a kundalini awakening, or the Completion stage of Tibetan Buddhism, and even shows where this information appears in countless traditions, including the Bible. Yeah, the Bible!

The Little Book of Hercules also links incomplete descriptions of spiritual gong-fu from Chinese Taoism with Hindu tantric yoga and Tibetan Vajrayana practice, so if you follow any of these schools this is must-have, never seen in print information that will definitely help your understanding of the spiritual path. No more wondering what all those meditation phenomena are, and why some people get them and you don’t, and how to get them most quickly, how long they last, what’s the next step in the sequence, and what it all means.

Not only that, but “Hercules” reveals all the tiny details of these stages. And tells you how to cultivate them.

You’ll even see descriptions of these stages proving they were known to the ancient Egyptian, Jewish, Celtic, and even Meso-American cultures!

Finally the gong-fu explanations of so many different schools – Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, Kashmir Shaivism, Shintoism, Vajrayana, Confucianism, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, western alchemy, paganism, etc. – are explained and linked. Yes, the path is non-denominational because everyone goes through the same thing, and you finally have a guide book to all these phenomena.

But wait, there’s more … You didn’t think that was it, did you?

This book explains how opening up your chakras and channels and cultivating your chi and physical body to a state of purity and excellence totally transforms it and enables all sorts of super power abilities to come out, and so you finally have explanations behind some of these abilities.

You’ll also discover how internal energy cultivation is related to the attempt to realize our True Self, absolute nature or dharmakaya, because that’s the actual focus of the spiritual path. That’s what it’s all about, so this is a rare book to link the cultivation fo the sambhogakaya, or reward body of the spiritual path, with the cultivation of realizing our original nature, or discovering the dharmakaya. Rarely are the two efforts linked together so you can see how one supports the other. It therefore explains the connection between cultivating the sambhogakaya and dharmakaya, something rarely seen in Tibetan texts and the books of other traditions.

Then, for another “first in print”, it explains the mechanism behind visions that spiritual practitioners experience along the path or thoughts they often have out of the blue related to spiritual and physical matters, called nirmanakaya, and why visions differ according to tradition for the same stages of accomplishment. This is actually how “Heaven” intervenes to help spiritual practitioners, though of course it has to do with one’s merits.

And of course, because this deals with tantric body cultivation, there are deep discussions of pranayama, the skeleton visualization, sexual cultivation (probably the most detailed discussion in print), chi purification, chakra openings, and countless other techniques.

So, …

If you’ve studied Tibetan Buddhism and want to know all the stages prior to and after the opening of the sushumna channel, and methods used to accomplish this, and COMPLETE explanations of what happens during the process, this book is for you … if you’ve been collecting empowerments this material will help your practice …

If you are a yoga practitioner and want to know about tantric yoga, and ALL the complete stages of the kundalini awakening (which have never appeared in print until this book), and why this is painful for some practitioners and easy to pass for others, this book is for you …

If you practice pranayama, you need to know this material …

If you practice visualization exercises, you need to know this material …

If you practice meditation, such as vipassana, and start to feel the energies within your body, and feel you are encountering problems (such as headaches, uneasy feelings, etc.) but cannot explain them, this book is for you …

If you are a Taoist practitioner and want to know all the stages of the opening of the body’s chi channels, and sequences of nei-gong (internal alchemy) which are not clear in Taoist books, this is for you …

If you are a Christian, Jewish or Moslem practitioner and you want to see how the Bible describes these exact same stages of gong-fu, this is the only book in existence that will teach you this material and you’ll find explanations of some Biblical passages that have remained indecipherable for centuries because they dealt with the chi, chakra and energy gong-fu transformations of the spiritual path …

If you are a martial artist and want to understand how to cultivate qi-gong and nei-gong, this book is for you …

If you are a Shintoist and want to understand what your practice is all about, and want detailed explanations of your practice, this book will pull away the mysteries for you …

If you are a western alchemist, pagan, student of the western mystery schools, or scholar of ancient western religions, this book shows you how various ancient western cultures represented the exact same stages of spiritual gong-fu in their art and literature because they are non-denominational … everyone who was an adept knew about the physical results of the spiritual path because everyone goes through them …

If you are a screenwriter, or novelist who wants to see the real Hero’s Journey that can become the basis of the next generation of movies and action best sellers, this book is for you …

Frankly, this material is too rich in content blessings for most practitioners but I had to write it because if I don’t, then who will? My teacher would probably say most people lack the merit for it. In Tibet you would have to wait nearly twenty years to get just some rudimentary bits of this type of teaching, and those materials would not include these advanced explanations that help you progress further and keep your sanity as you go through all these physical transformations of the chakras and channels.

So if you want to understand the physical side of the Esoteric School and the rudimentary beginning stages of physical transformation of the spiritual path that members of ALL RELIGIONS pass through when their cultivation practice is good enough, the door has been opened and curtain pulled back for this rare and previously “secret” information reserved to initiates. Now you’ll understand many mysteries in the field of religion and spiritual cultivation as they will finally be explained to show the unity of the spiritual path. How to find these answers?
