a very long mountain range in Asia Kunlun Nei Gung is an ancient, secret method of spiritual awakening. Kunlun is a reset process that is a part of your body already. When you do the method you activate that process. Whatever your body determines you need to do to realign your natural energy flow, will happen. The position you take tunes/harmonizes your body with the one law or sympathetic vibration. You know you have attained it when you feel joyful, blissful and loving. The love aspect of the human being is the expression of the one law. This treasure of re-enlightenment is composed of three basic levels of breathing. * The first level opens the body's nervous system, which is comprised of 72,000 nerves or nadis. The result of this opening is the awakening of the golden dragon, or magnetic body. * The second levelinvolves breath retention practice that generates and circulates the body's magnetic field, removes impurities and awakens the brain's dormant potentials * The third level composes of the "waterfall" meditation that brings the practitioner back to the physical level of being. This part is for calming and relaxing the body, mind and spirit of a person. The end result of Kunlun Spontaneous Nei Gung system is to awaken the practitioner's magnetic potentials, the "bliss-body", the expression of the dormant potential of the mind, and to understand the one law that governs all matter, energy, and form.

There are hidden keys given to the practitioner after each level of practice is mastered.

What is to go beyond oneself or reality through meditation?
In meditation, one begins to see that there is no self. It is not that one goes beyond oneself. Rather, one sees, over time, that one is not the mind, not the body, and not the emotions. One is simply the witnessing consciousness.
However, at this point, these are simply words. What is needed is to find a meditation technique that feels right, and to begin practicing, so that you may have this experience for yourself.

What are the origins of the word 'meditation'?
The word meditate stems from the Latin root meditatum, i.e. to ponder. In the old Testament means to sigh or murmur, but also to meditate. When the Hebrew Bible was translated into Greek, hÄgâ became the Greek melete. The Latin Bible then translated hÄgâ/melete into meditatio. The use of the term meditatio as part of a formal, stepwise process of meditation goes back to the 12th century monk Guigo II
Apart from its historical usage, the term meditation was introduced as a translation for Eastern spiritual practices, generally referred to as dhyana, which comes from the Sanskrit root dhyai, meaning to contemplate or meditate. The term "meditation" in English may also refer to practices from Islamic sufism or other traditions such as Jewish Kabbalah and Christian Hesychasmrecent Aedited book about "meditation", for example, included chapter contributions by authors describing Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Islamic, and Taoist traditions. Scholars have noted that "the term 'meditation' as it has entered contemporary usage" is parallel to the term "contemplation" in Christianity.
Meditation is a holistic discipline during which time the practitioner trains his or her mind in order to realize some benefit.
Meditation is generally a subjective, personal experience and most often done without any external involvement, except perhaps prayer beads to count prayers. Meditation often involves invoking and cultivating a feeling or internal state, such as compassion , or attending to some focal point , etc. The term can refer to the process of reaching this state, as well as to the state itself.

Form of yoga in which meditation is used?
The form of yoga that uses meditation is known as Dhyana yoga. There are many forms, it can be called Raja yoga or king of yoga. It can be call the Patanjali yoga which takes you to samadhi. Therefore the names are plenty, but we should not get worried about the name. We should understand what that form of yoga, of meditation is - it is silence. It is being able to switch off, it is being able to become the witness, the observer. That meditation which gives you Dhyana or concentration gives you consciousness, you become conscious that you are the Divine Soul. You are not the body, you observe the mind as it wanders. This is Dhyana yoga or the yoga of silent meditation.
Can you abolish Obsessions and Compulsions through meditation?
Many people hold their breath and then breath out quickly, forcibly and audibly. They keep repeating it often. They are trying to control obsessions.
OBSESSION AND COMPULSION:
Obsessions are meaningless, purposeless, repetitive and uncontrollable thoughts that keeps entering our conscious mind automatically.
Compulsions, meaningless, purposeless, repetitive and uncontrollable actions.
ABOLISHING OBSESSIONS AND COMPULSIONS:
Extending in the mid line from a point above our Adams apple to the back of our chin is a pair of thin long muscles called Geniohyoid.
Ir the muscle isometrically contracts (hardens) towards its rear end we would be using our mind.
If the muscle hardens towards the front end of the muscle, we would be using our body.
ABOLISHING OBSESSIONS:
If we keep the rear end of the muscles hard, then no thought can enter our conscious mind. However, that would arrest our breathing. Therefore, we should select a tone that blocks our obsessions and at the same time allows us to breathe. We can make it harden and soften at high speed. However, that requires some practice.
ABOLITION OF COMPULSIONS:
We can abolish our compulsions in a similar way, by partially hardening the front end of the muscle Geniohyoid.
ABOLITION OF OBSESSIONS AND COMPULSIONS:
By hardening both the ends alternately at high speed we can abolish obsessive compulsive neurosis.

What are the meditation required to cure schizophernia?
I have been diagnosed by Western doctors with bipolar, and I have been meditating for 15 years. I can say with utmost certainty that meditation helps.
A few things. You probably want to start with active (rather than passive) techniques. There are techniques that allow you to move, to throw off excess energy, before sitting and going in. Try googling the words "gibberish meditation".
Also, it is probably best to work with a teacher or a group of people, rather than on your own. That way, if stuff comes up, you have a place to turn. Be sure to mention your diagnosis to your teacher/s when you begin.
Meditation is not a cure for schizophrenia. I still take meds, as well as MEDitate. But it helps.
Over time, meditating gives you space from the chattering mind. So the active mind may continue with its thoughts, but you will be able to watch them from a distance. They will not disturb you as much.

What type of yoga is used for p90x?
From what I can tell, the P90X 'Yoga X' routine is an amalgamation of several types of yoga combined with some unique postures specifically developed for the P90x series.
Primarily, the 'Yoga X' routine seems to be based on Vinyasa Yoga.
Quoted from Wikipedia, "The purpose of viṅyāsa is to create heat in the body, which leads to purification of the body through increased circulation and sweating."
Boy, this speaks the truth! I haven't sweated as much since I was 18 years old and in the US Navy boot camp! If you've done the P90x 'Yoga X', then you know what I mean about sweating! Boy, what an amazing workout.
