Means of increasing inner
energy
I shall try and state a few ideas referring to
the way one can increase his inner energy. It is not a detailed
scientific point of view, moreover a general overview which
collects personal opinions (after thorough research and practice).
There is a lot to say and I could write down a lot about this
topic, but I shall limit to only main ideas. The real
understanding may be transmitted by statements, not by words.
First of all, we should realize that each of us
loses much more energy than it gathers, because of all our actions
(thoughts, words, different activities, etc.). One cannot avoid
that to happen, because external world "forces" you, one
way or another, to create entropy. Thus, at the end of the day,
you are much more tired than in the morning. That is everyday
routine and as years go by, you get old and then, you lose your
physical body, as a consequence of energetic wearing out.
Most of the people say that the process is a
normal one and you cannot come against it. The problem is the way
you "see" your life, or think things should happen in
the universe. If we consider it more thoroughly and study the
performance of the people in the Eastern
hemisphere (they arrived to the reversing of the aging process and
even to immortality - not all people can do that), we shall see that
Western people, see things as out of fashion. Energetically
speaking, it is less effective. If you think about it thoroughly, you will
see that most of those who speak about spirituality do not have an
amazing level of energy; if they have certain "abilities",
they are inborn and not the result of human lifetime struggle.
People from the Eastern hemisphere, do not consider the latter to
have them.
There is a lot to say about what is effective or
not (energetically speaking); about the way spiritual philosophy
prevents you from becoming aware of your real position in the
universe; and you must make real efforts to gather energy for your
personal evolution. We can write a lot of material about that
aspect. Spiritual philosophy we encounter each moment in our life,
has been written down in many books or lectures.
Referring to "entropy", the other
meaning is "to gather" energy (by reversing the law of
entropy). If one increases its inner energy, he will get over all
types of vibrations produced by a disease. Moreover, excessive
energy (after the body has recovered) might create a lot of things
which can later on be used for human development. Unfortunately,
the idea of evolution/self development is not considered from that
point of view (people keep on talking about karma, reincarnation,
spiritual mission, communication and other types of
physical-spiritual ideas - considered normal; but although they
are real, they can only keep the illusion of evolution vivid.
Evolution is a matter of gathering energy, individually, both in
quantity and quality. The most effective way to do that is to
create archetypes which must contain ideas and energies which can
lead you to the highest level. These archetypes can be seen at the
physical level, only by organized schools of acknowledgment. There
are very few real schools, excepting those from the Eastern
hemisphere. Therefore, people back there evolve in ten years like
others in one lifetime or even ten.
After we have stated several general ideas
referring to the way the accumulating energy is considered, as
well as its importance for the evolution, I shall continue by
pointing out the ways we use for losing energy more often (from
within our structures).
Me for instance, I believe that energy is lost
because of inferior (less evolved) ideas we have about ourselves.
We consider ourselves as mortals and we should do a lot of good
deeds till the end of our life. Therefore, the very next life, we
are entitled to have the opportunity of getting closer to God
(everyone understands that in his own way). We are "filled"
with spiritual philosophy and we disregard making important effort
for reaching the highest level possible, during our life. We enjoy
our "spiritual knowledge", which is much more important
than that of other people, but we do not have the feeling of
"emergency" which would help us search for the most
effective way to evolve and increase our energy. In order to do
that, we must be very open and think that "we are only at the
beginning of the process and there is a lot more to know".
Most of the people find it hard to accept and believe they already
know enough. I state that from my experience, I do not state any
judgment. I have also had a moment when I thought I knew
everything. But I came to the conclusion that (by comparing
the knowledge to that from other continents) it was only bare
philosophy and nothing definite. The Path is very long and we are
nothing but "absolute beginners". Now, I am
completely all right with that matter.
We will
live a certain inner "effusion" which might help us
exceed the average level of awareness and succeed in getting over
common practice and other type of loss. That would be possible
only if we change our opinion about who we are, what life really
is, what God is, when we really see how less evolved we are (on
our planet) or when we are able to follow the path of the evolved
people and have the proof of the levels they have reached.
Gurdjieff used to say that we find ourselves into a wrong place in
the universe, a place where is very difficult evolving - excerpts
from "Searching for the miracle" by P.D. Ouspensky.
One of the biggest consumers of energy are
negative emotions such as fear, impatience, anger, intolerance,
etc., as well as negative thoughts and less evolved concepts. When
you express your emotions (you identify with them, lose your
awareness, the center and peace), you shall create within your
real structures, real "tempests" of energy. They make
you lose a lot of the power you one had. You may have seen that
you feel weaker after expressing your emotions. That will happen
day after day, until... Sex, as people make it in Western
countries, as well as pornographic materials people identify with
(when they watch it they lose their self awareness), is another
great consumer of energy. Without sexual energy people find
difficult evolving (see "Hathor's teachings", published
by For You Publishing House, or several other written materials).
Food is another consumer, but a smaller one,
according to my beliefs. When you have a relatively small level of
energy (in the beginning), it is extremely important, but as you
go further on, you gather it through other means and you can get
over "negative" vibrations produced by certain types of
aliments. For instance, Jasmuheen - the women who feeds only with
light, says that she eats chocolate once in a while, only for its
taste (but she can do that, considering her level of evolution!).
In Eastern hemisphere/Far East, people reach highest levels of
evolution: they eat both uncooked and "dead" food.
Perhaps, they cook it in a certain way which allows them keeping
the nutritional and energetic value.
One of the biggest energy consumers is bad
breathing (from the "top of the lungs"). An effective
breathing, which would produce a lot of energy, needs the "work"
of the entire lung area and especially of the intestines.
The way we walk, sleep, watch, talk and make
gestures, produces loss of inner energy. We should learn how to
keep energy or collect it during these activities. For that
reason, ever since Old Age, real schools of self awareness and
esoteric materials, have mainly highlighted what we call "to
be aware of your own actions".
Now, we arrive to the study of the means for
collecting energy. In order to keep energy within our body, we
should focus all the time on the way we live ("self
awareness)". Thus, unconscious restlessness, chaotic
thoughts, uncontrolled emotions should reduce until they disappear
for all. It is rather difficult to do that - you have to slow down
your moves in order to see the energy
and be able to keep the focusing. There are a lot of exercise to
do (in schools of self awareness), both static (meditation) and
dynamic - they are very useful for obtaining self awareness (which
means to effectively feel your entire body, organ energy and
emotions - or even turn negative emotions into positive). That
increases inner energy and it is also the first step to the
evolution. If you believe you can evolve and obtain certain
abilities without becoming more and more self aware or "a
unity", I reckon it is an illusion.
In order to gather energy, besides all types of
exercise for increasing self awareness, it is very important to eat
the right food (what each individual believes to
be suitable), to stop losing sexual energy and emotions, or to stop
losing the intensive desire to look for what seems effective from
an energetic point of view. The latter produces something which we
might call inner "effusion" and which makes us evolve
and supports accumulation of energy.
I am aware of the fact that I was not really able
to explain the process of accumulation in detail. There is a lot
to say about that and I have just tried to highlight the most
important ideas. Those who are really interested in that, may read
"Searching for the miracle" by P.D.
Ouspensky and "Hathor's teachings", who both contain
more details about the process. There are also many other
available materials.
We can say that evolution and collecting
energy are well-known in inner alchemy.
Since external alchemy does exist (turning lead into gold; nutrition
additives, combining complex elements and freeing a lot of energy),
from my point of view, inner alchemy represents the most effective
way to gather energy and evolve. It
gathers and develops all we
can find spread into another systems. At least, I have come to
this conclusion, after reading and studying a lot.
