Energie Bubble Demonstratiom

[@Anrwi]

This is NOT nonsense. I had the privilege of meeting Lama Dorje in Hong Kong at a similar seminar, and I am not an Buddhist. I had the dubious privilege of rushing him myself and finding myself pushed back. It was amazing! I was not paid to attend the demonstration, nor to pretend I was being pushed back. I WAS pushed back, without even being touched by him. Those who say it is fake, attend a demonstration and see for yourself. Information on their website is given at the end.

[@hairqueen5759]

I don't know him, but judging from his words, he is accurate and stable mindset. Great rap at the end. Beautiful words with full meanings. Thanks for the video..

[@ziranmen]

thank you for posting this , I really got a lot from his talk , nice to see a master explaining about the true intent behind all the external training

[@crystalsgreatlife]

Thank you for this great video. I have lived a very unusual life starting with growing up in a VERY active haunted house. I have experienced many things that most people only see in movies & believe do not really happen in reality, but they do. This is a very beautiful video & I wish more people could experience the fundamental side of life that excised under the veneer of our social training & superficial existents.

[@russelloriely6343]

The force is strong in this one.

[@There-Is-No-Virus]

the subtitles are great. Well done to whoever did them. the guy being used as his student has probably trained with him for 10 years or more, and a certain relationship develops. not only do they know eachothers moves but the student also wants to make his teacher look good.. so he plays along to some part. There are some people who do have real chi energy though, i have seen 1 on youtube and read about 1 from wayne dywer who met him personally so they do exist but those 2 were healers.

[@bbarker5766]

It can be unbelievable until you experience it... I'm not a fan of this video but I have experienced it and it is very intriguing yet extremely difficult to learn. Back to my training.

One of the best gurus I have come across on KZbin - perhaps even the best - although he doesn't dress up to appear like an ancient wise old man who speaks slowly and who adorn long white beard and hair. The Lama's understanding of the essence of existence is unparalleled. The truth has no labels and he frequently reminds us that. Truth is truth whatever you call it.

IIRC, Star Wars "The Force" was inspired by Taoism. There is a lot of overlap with Taoism and Buddhism. In fact, one could argue that "The Way" could be synonymous with "The Force".

A real Master in my opinion. The Energy bubble demonstrated in this video by this accomplished Master is the torus explained in the movie "Thrive" by Foster Gamble. You need years of training and cultivating yourself to reach such a mastery.

because not everyone can work with and handle the energy properly. his students are also soft and dissipate the energy very smoothly

[@Maartenn100]

Why he doesn't demonstrate it with a randomly chosen guy. It's fake.

[@ametistSCUT]

If you believe one thing will work, even if it would sound crazy and impossible, then there you made your first step attempting to make miracles possible, because you put yourself into movement, you circulate your entire energies to make it happen. Miracles will only be perceived as miracles as long as we won't try to make one or understand that everything is possible and it resides from within ourselves and our power to do so. Keep practice and may Love surround all of us!

[@stillnessinmovement]

one thing I find interesting about mr dorje (yeung) is that his background is hardcore fighting practice and traditional kung fu. these are classic high level kung fu skills he is demonstrating. yes many people fake it and yes everyone reacts a little differently to it. but watch, he starts out showing clear liu/ji movement, he's clearly showing internal power without any of the "weirdness" then he just keeps going. if you have not experienced this, or if your belief in pure materialism (which physics itself contradicts, BTW!) I can understand how you would say this is fake. but there is something real going on here, from what I see. not understanding something does not give you license to dismiss something. you can go back through u tube and see his progression, first technique, then internal power, then kong "power". old masters of tai chi, bagua, and taoism all have stories that are beyond believable to west. this simply means we in the west have not explored it. go show a iphone to an aboriginine, they would think it's magic. but it's not, it's just highly developed methodology. your comments are all recieved in the sense of adventure and the possibilities of future human potential growth...

[@stillnessinmovement]

+Richard Benoit you can't stop yourself, can you? I have a LOT of respect for others. I have a lot of respect for my ability to experience and talk about the world around me. I have a lot of respect for the energy traditions of the world. I respect ANYONE, no matter how closed minded, who trains in any discipline and tries to life a good life. I have respect for the unknown. I have respect for the people who over the ages have passed on all manner of arts so that we can practice them. I respect our untapped human potential. of which, this video might leave clues. I respect the fact that you are very passionate about your martial art, you think it's the best. good for you. I also respect my art and what ive been taught, which is the crux of this; you don't believe in what I have experienced, so your trying to shut me up because you can't stand it that someone might know something you don't, might have learned something you havent. but, I respect my own opinion, my own study and my own training, so just get over it, holmes...110% later tater.

[@2008August30]

It looks incredibly over done but then his explanation on how he creates this bubble is quite fascinating. He is also obviously well trained in many disciplines so who knows what kind of level he has reached, he also may be gifted which may send an inaccurate message that others can obtain his level of mastery when in fact he may have been born with a unique ability.

[@MySecretJourney]

How come he doesn't try on more people. It's always the same 3 people...

[@xpointzer06]

This is one true nature of tai chi, its very hard to learn and understand the concept but some tai chi masters told be that you should believe in yourself and think about nothing. If you think to many things you will never get any chi flowing in your veins.. Tai chi is a long term training like 3 years maybe or lower. Depends on the person who is in training.

When I asked him he simply said; 'Chi'. Greetings from Australia.

Recall Lama Dondrup Dorje's teaching in this video: "Every bone is connected to the next bone correctly ..." - this is very significant. Damo's Yijin Jing results in the perfected alignment of the ligaments, fascia and connective tissues of the body. This state comes from deep relaxation achieved with meditation. Compassion is important because a heart centre (knot of Vishnu) which is not blocked allows us to balance energy in our body with less problems and obstacles. Thanks for sharing.

[@dekal1]

I actually questioned the ability of Dr. Yeung. After watching enough, of him from the 70's, it is not a matter of whos mind hes controlling, but how he is controlling his own mind. You can tell he is a true master of Tai Chi. It is obvious that he learned more and learned how to really harness his own "Chi"

Indeed for me it is even a better example and thank you for completing my thoughts. But for one who trusts in only what one sees, then my example is more suitable because one can put its finger on it and comprehend it with its mind.

[@mrigmaiden1]

His lecture is lovely.

[@ametistSCUT]

You are perfectly right, my friend. Though I'm not sure what you mean by "claiming" a gravity center, and I might miss some logical deduction here, the difference between those two stays in the fact that, while such energy bubbles (as "shown" in video) are only a small part of our entire quantity of energies, which coincide or have its core roots (or it is integrated within our own gravity center along with everything else composing our total unique spirits as individuals).

[@ametistSCUT]

For everyone that thinks this is dumb or fake, please just take a few minutes (you can skip the demonstration part if it is too hard to believe it's not a mockery) and just listen to what this man has to say. I feel very sad when people keep their minds closed and within so many limitations. PLEASE give it a try. there is always a time to start doing it, beliving is not hard and it does not harm you at all. worst case scenario: ....well, I don't see one. You got nothing to lose.

[@johnjeffrey3127]

Hi BeccaJeanC and much blessing to you on your journey in this time and space.. I hope you have a clear path to understanding the lessons on your journey..credentials being important to most I am a practicing buddhist and a teacher.. Let me simply state a fact and say something and if you find value in it please take it as you will... It's not for you to scold people for what they say about a video..they too are on their own journey and reality is not always the same for everyone.... Namaste..

[@ametistSCUT]

always remember there are at least 2 answers and 2 choices, and jumping exclusively on one of them you'd only miss so much more, so many other possibilities. and again: how funny is the way people communicate so little through words?! I'm sorry you misunderstood me but I'm glad you had your chance to be exactly as you are! We are here NOW! only unconditional love will save US (SOUL= Source Of Unconditional Love)!!!!!!

[@tohkimlin]

@Hoorvt: You are right that sitting long enough and breathing to clean out the inner tension is the way to go. Thanks for pointing this out. By the way 'karma' translated to English is simply 'action' .... thoughts, speech and deeds emanating from this physical body. You are also right that humans are born relative free of tension. Most of our tension is self created. That's why we face ourselves for what we are and return to the balanced state. I like the way you said "Balanced like Air". :)

[@slumsteve13]

what self mastery, to fully innerstand ones self like this .. the goal

[@tohkimlin]

The human body has inner tension caused by our karma, and the muscles try to balance it by exerting even more tension to hold everything in place, creating a somewhat unstable new equilibrium within the state of imbalance. Release any link in this delicate network and re-alignment is immediately necessary .... and this causes the 'involuntary' spasms and flailing. An aligned master is balanced .... inside and outside, like the Lama Dondrup Dorje. Namaste.

I also perfectly understand what you are saying. Yes, I admit to a doubting spirit, also doubting my doubts. Since you judge my ego, let me point out, that a feeling spiritual superiority can sometimes be quite misleading. I'm sure, someone with such extraordinary powers would not have the urge to prove them to the world. I completely understand that - why put the ego (which doesn't exist anyway) in front. On the other hand: How much would it help others! Imagine.

You are still focused on you. Communication is for the people you speak to. They take on board (which is what we were talking about, not sure where you brought beliefs in) what they find useful or not. - That is what communication is for, giving them a message, not hearing ourselves talk. Its been an interesting back and forth however, happy travels.

Thankyou John, and I appreciate your sentiment, you are right of course. Reality is not always the same for everyone, but unfortunately we have all been trained - indoctrinated since birth to ridicule, mock and jeer at anything that is out of the 'norm', no matter how credible it may be upon closer inspection. Here's a good one: Aliens. How often arrogance asserts itself in the belief we alone occupy this vast space. I may have over reacted, but I do not think ppl would be so closed if not taugh

[@Anrwi]

@pitviper328 You're the 2nd one to mention John Chang, so I must look into it. As I recall (this was some years back), it felt like an electric shock below my chest that moved outward, diminishing eventually. I'd never even heard of such things till that day, so now, when I see things which stretch my credulity, I try to keep an open mind. But as another suggested, it could have been hypnotism or even some electrical device hidden on the lama. I just don't know enough about such things.

I've experienced it in my own body, autonomous movements of energy/bloody/the nervous system when doing yoga but that's the extent of my knowledge on this kind of manipulation.

[@anrchyx]

If you watch his feet and legs you can CLEARLY see that the guy being "pushed" away is using his muscles to push himself in the opposite direction.

@tbonehertz instead of someone from the crowd, i would like to see if it would work on a high-level internal arts practitioner form another lineage. I've seen some amazing demonstrations of internal energy, some of which could appear a bit outlandish, but I'm very skeptical of this video. I also believe that in these types of scenarios, a subtle form of hypnotism takes place, which mostly goes unnoticed by student and teacher alike. It is not to say that there is mal intent though.

[@markskayff]

The ones who are actually descrying from this is mainly because they have never been before an actual Qijong Master or Aikido Master. I practiced Aikido where we tried to developed this skills too. I remember one of the master teachers in several sessions, while I practiced with him, you cannot even touch him. You feel an energy filed repelling you. I remember once he dropped me two meters away in the air just with the touch of his hand.

great vid! to those who are skeptical, just hear me out. if you are willing, look some of this stuff up and give it a try. i was once a non believer, but i came into contact with chi and other esoteric subjects, had some cold hard evidence, and believe me there are very few other things that will open your eyes like this. just give it a try if you're willing, what's the worst that can happen :)

[@Arzak8]

Not saying this isn't possible, but from the video it seems that the man is running away. If you look at his feet, the angle of his ankles clearly suggest that he is pushing himself away from the man. If it was an energy bubble repelling him, he wouldn't need to push himself away.

[@tohkimlin]

Humans are built up of the same building blocks. We are the children of this earth and its elements. Therefore the fundamental frequencies of our vibrations have similar harmonics .... and it is only a question of tuning in, like electronic devices connecting on Wifi, without password access. If our mind is scattered and scrambled with 'noise' we will only exist in confusion. If we can keep the mind still, then a wonderful new world of focus will enter our lives. Good luck.

It seems to be logic to require at least the subconsciously participation of the folk's movement, since he's not trained/strong/experienced enough to shield or counteract the energy emission he's receiving from the master. it is human nature to protect and preserve what we could name "our own habitable for soul and mind"i.e. our body. long story short with an example: we can not stop our life with bare hands...:)

Historically speaking, things that were found based loosely off historical beliefs are now being proven through science decades later.

Im a huge Star Wars fan and this looks pretty much like "The Force". And even if I would like this to be true seriously doubt it. Judging by the movements of the guy attacking it seems like he is stopping himself before touching the Lama and the running backwards, I don't see an external force stopping him. I would like to see him stopping a ball in mid air or something.

[@CluppHead]

I'm not sure if I believe that these "students" are acting. However, I have seen this type of behavior before. It's called Hypnotism. If these students are all hypnotized, it would make sense for them to have this type of reaction. If you've ever watched hypnotism, it does look like that those that are being hypnotized are acting. Just a thought.
