... I don't see TSK as either Western or Eastern, and perhaps it isn't. It doesn't presume anything that I know of, and it does seem to heal all splits. In...

... Hi Ram, Sorry for being tardy. Well, I was dwelling on the space question. I put down the following. I hope you don't mind if I express it here. I was...
I prodded the room, and then I nodded off to sleep myself! James and Eric, good to hear from you. I've read some of your contributions in the history of this...
Hi Ram, As you know, for many years I felt I was running in circles. I felt an earnest need to understand why I was caught for so long in a seemingly endless...
Hi Ram: To make a long story very short: Some years ago a project i undertook to look into some sublimated stuff went very unexpectedly. What began as ...
UrbanNgakpa and Jim, Thank you for your responses and forgive my slowness in replying! I participate on some other discussion pages and usually find it easier ...
Hi Ram and Jim, This was a recent meditative `experience' where I employed the TSK vision: This morning during meditation, after settling into a quiet mind I ...
Hi--I am responding to, I believe, Ram's invitation to say what's up in tsk practice these days. I am finding that "space projecting space into space" is...

Hi All, Several of the exercise instructions conclude with "this can be deepened through personal instruction." When, where and how does one avail oneself of...
Yes, me too! I've also looked for people involved in tsk nearby (I'm in Virginia), but haven't located any. The only thing I know to do is wait till I move...
... Hi, Jim, Ram, and others, There are at least thousands of people scattered all over the world who are interested in and even actively studying and...
Hi Ram and Steve, Thanks for your replies and suggestions. I'll keep looking. These small discussions are heartening. Some while back, I'd gone to a local...
Hi Steve, thank you for the information. If you do have a list of contacts in the Virginia area, I would be interested. Of course, as I said, I plan on...
Ram, ... I'll pull it together soon. Of course, as ... I am renting rooms in my house in the Hayward hills, not too far from JFKU. I'm hoping to find...
Hi Ram and Everyone Attached to this, I wrote about an exercise I did while quietly observing internal space; I called up concepts from the background of `to...
Hi Eric, Thanks for the response. The original posting resulted from my going through the exercises specifically on `space' in Tarthang's, `Visions of...
Jim, I fully understand what you are saying about your experience in the traditional Buddhist context. In my own case, several experiences allowed me to...
Hi Ram, Thanks for your honest words. It sounds as though we are similar in mixing Buddhist and TSK approaches. These days I emphasize TSK in that I am...
... It's very interesting to me that TSK does not emphasize a teacher. It's unusual that way; Krishnamurti seemed to foster a similar 'approach'. TSK doesn't...
It is interesting -- I spend a lot of time on other discussion forums and usually don't find myself lacking something to say. Here, it is different! Partly,...
... All of the exercises in the first book are there. It's not at all necessary to do them in any order, despite what it says on the site. Ok, gym partner-- ...
On TSK book ex. 33 (Self-Transcending Appearance) practice this morning: Saw light with each 'minding' while breath, thinking, and emotion gradually calmed...
Thanks to Steve, and others, who want to be TSK gym partners. I am not so familiar with extensive practice of Ex. 33; but on playing with its possibilities...

Steve, I've worked tentatively with exercise 33 this week, but I have found it helpful to go to the exercise prior to it. Perhaps my own expectations have...
Ram--If I may join in here, I wonder about the experience of light as well. In engaging the knowledge practices, I have found that while letting light appear,...

Hi Everyone, Ram raised a question I was wrestling with regarding conducting the light (or the idea of light) into being, which seems to be an important...
Hello: Depending upon how broadly one identifies or defines "pattern", or by allowing each discrete pattern (or categories of such patterns) to introduce a...
Hi Ram and Jim I intended to do the `Stream of Memories' exercise as a lead in to my daily sitting meditations but after a couple of days I would wake up in...
Continuing with the `Stream of Memories' exercise… Further observation revealed that so much energy was being used to maintain the memory, and also the root...
