Hey is that Geshe Kelsang? My fave Buddhist
books are Heart Drops of Dharmakaya and Wonders of the Natural Mind. I
think the book Vaj was Clear Light of Bliss.

I'm sorry but this is total
hogwash. Anyone who has taken time to get
initiated into some good higher
eastern practices knows exactly what is
supposed to be going on and where
the mistakes are.
Basically MMY has tried to create a pure "Vedic"
practice, grossly
simplified based on inner tantric practices which are
connected to
"soma". He only vaguely succeeded IMO. Yes humans produce
rarified
forms of prana during meditation. Yes they are used with other
beings
and to create holistic communication and circumstances. But not
really
in the way that this is described (on Trancenet). What is described
on
Trancenet, if it is authentic TMO teaching, is an aberration, an
attempted reconstruction of an alleged "Vedic" practice. Sadly or
perhaps happily, there IS no lineal descent of this practice in a Vedic
tradition. So they/he made one up.
The sad thing is the real
teaching on dripping and blazing of soma,
etc. are all still preserved and
still lead to real enlightenment. But
this ain't it.
Do yourself a
favor, if you want to really find out about where it's
at, go buy a copy
of _Bliss of Clear Light_ and read it. It is
extraordinary that this book
was ever published, because many people
spent a lifetime or lifetimes just
to have the good fortune to receive
these teachings. You will be
amazed...and if you are a TM-Sidhi
practitioner who is honest with
himself, you will experience a deep
up-welling of anger.
You've
been had.
