Hello Anthony,
I really am not familiar with Tibetan Tantrism. Please share with the
forum.
For whatever its worth, the only thing that I have "heard" was Tibetan
Buddhism, or "Secret Order", or 『密宗』, was taught by 『龍樹菩
薩』,who is Chan Master. Therefore Chan is also considered 『大密
宗』, or "Grand Secret Order". There could be many similarities in the
practice. Our practice is called, 『秘密內證法』, or "Secret Inner
Witness Dharma".

JMJM,
Besides Buddhism and Tao, your Chan practice also absorb something
from Tibetan Tantrism, as described by you on chakras and energy
channels. If you don't agree, please explain.

Hello TMSO, (I hope you don't mind me using initials :-) )
Again very important question. Before I say anything I like to
repeat what my teacher often remind us, "Practice and you shall
witness. We all can." My words are only for your reference.
* The Sitting Practice of Chan is mostly Tao. The Words are
most Buddhism, because 49 years of teaching gave us a lot of
terms to use. The spiritual realms we reach however are
universal and label-less.
* Stage one, we practice to reach Constant Turning Of Dharma
Wheels. In layman's language, that is to cycle three energy
channels passing all ten chakras, three times, within a
single breath. Then our body is pure. This will take about
three years for average person, if practices on a daily
basis. At this stage, our physical being transforms into an
energy being, we are naturally fed with universal energy
constantly. (I don't have jet lag. Don't get tired.)
* Ultimate Truth/Final Form/True Form is called by some the
Ninth Consciousness, or the Realm of Light. It is the
Truth, Kindness and Perfection. Some call it the nature of
the universe, or nature of chan, or the nature of all of us.

Our meditation website is htttp://www.chan-meditation.org. And if
you register and log in at heartchan.org, there are about 8 or 10
video taught directly by our Lineage Chan Master, be connected
with His chi while listening to his words. There is English
subtitle. Each is about 45 minutes long.
Let me know if you need more details. Thank you for giving me
this opportunity to share.

To Jue Miao Jing Ming- Could you please tell me how Chan is
different than Tao. Also, how in Chan can we rid our bodies of
dirty chi, and replace it with fresh. I meditate with a candle
(candle gazing) and am able to go for long periods where I am
"one" with the candle. I can't describe it-I just "am". I have no
thoughts, I just "am." It's incredible. Lastly, what is the state
of Ultimate Truth/Final Form/True Form. Thank you for taking the
time to answer this...taomtnsa...@yahoo.com
