The Current of Energy flowing in a Temple (廟宇之靈氣說)


Rating:★★★
Category:Other

Yesterday (Monday), together with my disciples, we went to a few Temples in the afternoon to check out the events that will take place on the 3rd Day of Lunar 3 Month - Xuan Tian Shang Di's Manifestation Anniversary (玄天上帝千秋聖誕).

First stop, we went to Telok Blangah Tian Gong Temple (萬壽山天公廟), due to its a weekday and during the Qing Ming Period (清明), the Temple was a bit quiet and so, I have more time to chat with my uncle and the other Temple Assistants.

After a few minutes of chit-chating, I brought one of the students to the Rear Hall where Dou Mu Yuan Jun (斗姆元君), Jiu Huang Xing Jun (九皇星君) aka Nine Emperors & Nan Bei Dou Xing Jun (南北斗星君) are being honoured, just at the moment of stepping into the Rear Hall, a strong force "invaded" the 2 of us, for me, I'm already used to such forces, but to one of the students, he was totally new to such experience and so, standing in front of the Altar, I share with him some quick intro of how the Current of such Energies flow, etc.

In order for the others to understand more on such Current & the Movement of the Energies, I will do a write-up here, hope that by sharing this, in the future when any of you visit any Temple, you can try to concentrate and have a closer feel of the Energies that being emitted out.

Ok, lets start with a Positive Energy Current.

According to Spiritual Theory and Experiments, a Positive Temple (honour only Heavenly Realm or High Position Level Deities), the Energies that being emitted out will usually come from the Ground, then travel thru the legs, pass-by the Five Organs and then being released out from the Top Chakra - the Center Part of the Skull.

For weak people, once such energies are being absorb by their bodies and then, being released out from the Skull, they will feel giddy or a sharp-spicy pain. Some people might get worried or scared, actually this is fine and do no harm to the physical body - some can actually assist the person to do cleansing and removing of un-necessary blockage.

In some contexts, the People believed that, these type of Energies will help to assist one self to attain a higher level of Cultivation and so, in some Temples, you can always see people doing meditation or Calming Cultivation in front of the Altar or sitting under an Altar.

For Energy-sensitive People, they can even feel the Energies travelling around the whole Body before it is being released from the Skull.

For those who wished to try or experience such Energy Current, next time when one self visit to a Positive Temple, try to keep the mind, soul & physical body calm and then, slowly kneel in front of the Main Altar.
Once after kneeling down, release all the tension from the joints, relax and slowly adjust the breathing to a smoothing pace, if you are destinated or fated to have the connection with the Natural Energy, within seconds, you will feel a hot sensation growing from the kneel and then slowly spread to the whole body.

Next, the Negative Energy Current.

For Temples or Groups that honoured the Deities that are not from the Heavenly or Waterly Realm, or the Temples do engage into events that associated with Spirits, Souls & Ghosts, the Current Flow of the Energy will be Opposite, meaning Energy being absorb from the Center Point of the Skull and then, travel down thru the neck, to heart then the Five Organs and last, being released out from the feet.

For this type of Energy Flow, for those who are weak and not Spiritual Cultivated, as time goes by, certain part of the Physical Body will be affected and various illnesses will araise.

For those who are Cultivated, they can actually felt that the whole body is being sucked down strongly onto the Ground - like walking on muddy field.

For some First-time Experiencing people, they will feet as if they are wearing a Metal Armour or something heavy have drop on their back.

Second Last, the Energy that Float around or Shielding one self.

For some people, when they visit Temples or any Religious Premises, they will feel something that gathered around one self or, something blocking one self wherever one self goes.

This is what being known as Shielding or Protection Dome - a form of Golden Ray or Brightness.

This will happened on those who performed Self Cultivation or Religious Meditation and reached a certain Level of Spirituality.

When such people entered a Positive Energies, for the first few moment, they will feel strong forces hitting on the physical bodies.

Why such feelings?

Due to the Positive Energies banging onto each other.

Whereas when they visit Negative Temples, they will feel a form of Pulling Forces existed, this is known as the Yin attracting the Yang. But if a person reaches a certain High Level of Cultivation, the feeling will not be the same as what I mentioned here, but feeling a form of Sadness or Eeries (not scare), due to many Negative Entities present.

Last, No Sensing of any Current.

This can happen.

Many people might not be able to believe that, actually some Temples or Religious Premises do encountered NO Positive or Negative Energy present.

There are a few reasons:

1 - the Place is not being Enhanced or Cleanse

2 - the Place is not mend for Religious Usage

3 - the Place is consider as the Door to a Special Dimension (where No Yin & Yang existed)

And so, for a Spiritual Master, when one self encountered such case, the Spiritual Master will have to put in extra effort in order to find the reason or the cause of such an Vaccum Space.

  3. For all the while i visited temples, i didn't really take notice till Master Jave enlightened me yesterday. I visited 2 temples today, Loyang Tua Pek Kong and the Xuan Tian Shang Di Temple at Philip Street. Both gave me different feelings. For today i feel intense heat when i walk into Philip Street temple even when it is quite cool due to the rain, i was sweating all the way while chanting the mantras and giving our offerings.

  5. To be more accurate, Cheng Huang does not consider as a 100% Nether World Deity aka Yim Sin, cos during most of the Time, Cheng Huang stay in the Mortal World more than staying in the Nether World, just that, the tasks he hold are associated with the Temperory Departure (In Taoism Context).

    Cheng Huang, Official Title known as Cheng Huang Zheng Shen (城隍正神), same as Fu De Zheng Shen (福德正神), the last 2 Celestial Bestowed Deities in the Chinese Deity System and so, to be exact, they are consider as Positive Deities.

    And so, where the moment you step into a Temple that is dedicated to Cheng Huang, the Energy shall exist between the ranges of No Sensing -> Shielding -> Pulling Up.

    But if the feeling is sucking down, then you will need to know of the events that take place in the Temple - maybe they have trancing-session of Nether World Deities, etc, or the Temples engage into actions that cannot-see-the-light, etc.

  6. Yup, quite similar Theory to the Magnetic Field Current, but due to Scienctist have yet to have a better explanation on such feeling and so, we can only explain it using the Taoist Terms and Spiritual Experiments.

  7. This is good, cos slowly you are opening up yourself to accept the Current & Positive Energies that existed around you.

    Dont cling too much to whether you have that feeling or not when you enter any Temple, cos it will affect your honouring, etc.

    Let Nature take its course, if they are there, they will slowly approached you.

  9. Dear Jave,
    Interesting read. I've got some questions, does this have anything to do with qigong? From qigong's point of view, energy is everywhere. although there are places known for stronger energies. I assume the top chakra refers to bai hui point? so for the positive energy current, it goes in from bai hui, down the dan tian and into the ground; and the other way round for negative current? I understand there's actually a yin and yang flow within the body. if i'm not mistaken yang flow from the front down and yin from the back up. does the sensation felt got anything to do with this internal flow?

  10. Some how related to Qi Gong, but for Energies in Temples are not really what Qi Gong Terms or Theory can explained, cos, Energies in Temple might not come from just Surrounding, but from the other Realms or the Other Universe (in the Whole Null, there are more than 1 Universe, slowly will explain to you all, where we are in now is just 1 of the infinite Universe).

    And so, for some people who trained Qi Gong or Nei Gong might not be able to with-stand or understand the Energies that occur in a Temple or Religious Premises, etc.

  12. the temple in our town is dark, quite and a little bit eerie...is it because there are no masters to clean or enhance it? its a very old temple built in 1863 for the chinese here but after a flood, most chinese moved out and no one to rebuild temple, then later in 1949, was rebuilt as museum but some chinese that remained still worshp there....called 列圣宫。

  13. It all about 'Qi'
    Yin qi also need Yang qi - so temple that no people (or too little) come for worship, this temple missing yang qi, this will come un-balance of qi and cause feel more dark, cold and quite.

    This is not mean 'no deity' energy inside the temple, if no one go there to worship. Another factors like Di Li (Feng Shui) or Karma will effect this issue too.

    is that 列圣宫 dedicated Zeng Cheng Gong?
