Life Force Books Review: Second Sight by Judith Orloff
Deciphering the Golden Flower
Book Trailer


A memoir, a how-to and a detective story, Deciphering the Golden Flower One Secret at a Time, traces the author's life through his infatuation with the beautiful Madeleine to his discovery of Golden Flower Meditation, the method he used to activate Kundalini.

This book has sold over 5,000 copies through viral web marketing and personal appearances.

Often described as a clinical study of Kundalini, as told by Henry Miller, as lived by Holden Caulfield, Deciphering the Golden Flower One Secret at a Time is an interpretive companion piece to The Secret of the Golden Flower, an acknowledged masterpiece of Chinese alchemy that has challenged scholars for centuries. Not even Richard Wilhelm, the translator, or Carl Gustav Jung, the famous psychologist, who wrote the original commentary to The Secret of the Golden Flower, were able to plumb the depths of this method. Now, for the first time ever, a book dares to reveal the secrets of the world's most influential meditation method. The author, JJ Semple shares his many years of first-hand practice with the sacred book's meditation system. One-by-one, he reveals the techniques behind the book's secrets, providing clear instructions on how to use them. This book is an extraordinary statement about the inevitability of karma and the obstacles to self-realization.
 
READ AN EXCERPT
There's an accident. A seven-year-old boy is rushed to the hospital. His parents spare no expense: the best care, the finest doctors, and soon life is back to normal. Months later, however, when he returns to school, there are ominous signs, such as the sudden erosion of his cognitive abilities. Can there be a link to the accident? No one, including his parents, believes so. Yet the signs are unmistakable. At first he just feels different. Gradually, however, he watches his body change - his looks, his abilities, his personality, every part of him - until as a teenager, he realizes he's no longer the same person. Only after years of failure does he discover a secret resource within his body that enables him to understand how the accident affected him.

I am that boy, and I still have trouble believing there was a link between that accident and my subsequent implosion. But a link there was. My conscious mind tried to suppress it. It took me more than thirty years of Yogic practice to discover the hidden capabilities of my body.

Neuromuscular Stimulation

Life Force Books Logo

Neuromuscular alignment and the effects that neuromuscular devices, muscle activation and training techniques, and supplements have on the body and the Being are worth exploring.

Since I activated Kundalini, I have been able to feel the effects of supplements and devices because they immediately get my Kundalini motor revving in one way or another. It's easy to distinguish between an adverse reaction and a positive one. For instance, the Scalar Wave Laser, a device a friend loaned me, instantly stimulated my Kundalini. It's not a neuromuscular device or technique per se, I'll get to that issue in moment, but I use it as an example of the cause and effect relationship these devices have with the human body. I attended a training session with the inventor of this device, whose workings basically boil down to setting it to a particular frequency in order to benignly stimulate and/or positively affect various organs of the body which then counteracts the cause of a physical condition the user has detected upon feeling various symptoms.

That is the premise. During the session, all of the attendees were given a laser device to experiment with. The devices have very sophisticated program settings, allowing the user to "treat" body areas and causes. I felt the effects immediately and then during the following week, as I experimented further, I continued to feel it working. The question is: Working on What? Since I was not sick, I can't say that it cured or maintained any particular part of me.

Excerpt from Second Sight by Judith Orloff
It was 3 A.M., the summer of 1968. A magical Santa Ana night. A warm wind whipped through the Eucalyptus trees beside our house blowing tumbleweeds down the deserted city streets. I was sixteen years old and had spent the entire weekend partying at a friend's place in Santa Monica, oblivious to how exhausted I felt.

The scene was Second Street, two blocks from the beach, a one- bedroom white clapboard bungalow, where my friends and I hung out. We were like a pack of animals huddled safely together, apart from what felt to be a menacing outside world. Brightly painted madras bedspreads hung from the ceiling and candles in empty Red Mountain wine bottles flickered on the floor. Barefoot and stretched out on the couch, I was listening to Dylan's "Girl From North Country." I felt restless. I wanted something to do.   

A young blond man I had met only an hour before invited me to go for a ride with him up into the hills and I accepted. He was a James Dean type, cool and sexy, dressed in a brown leather jacket and cowboy boots, a pack of Camels sticking out of the back pocket of his faded jeans: the kind of guy I always fell for but who never paid much attention to me. I wouldn't have missed this opportunity for anything.

The two of us headed outdoors, stepping over couples who were making out on a few bare mattresses placed strategically on the living room carpet. We jumped in my green Austin Mini Cooper, my companion at the wheel, and took off for Tuna Canyon, one of the darkest, most desolate canyons in the Santa Monica mountain range, an exotic remote place which the Chumach Indians had consecrated as sacred ground.

The road snaked up into the mountains to an elevation of about 1500 feet where we could see the entire Malibu coastline laid out before us in a crescent of lights all the way from Point Dume down to the Southernmost tip of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The balmy night air blew through my hair, filling my nostrils with the rich scent of pungent sage and fresh earth. A few lone coyotes howled to each other in the distance.

For a moment, the man I was with glanced over at me and I felt something inside of me stir. The softness of his voice, the easy way he moved his body excited me, but I did my best not to show it, determined to play the game, acting as if I didn't care. The heat of his arm stretched across my body and he stopped on my leg. I reached my hand over to meet his, slowly stroking each fingertip, one by one. I felt intoxicated by the newness. He was a stranger, completely unknown to me. It was the ultimate risk. The closer we got to our destination, the more my excitement grew. I was anticipating what would happen when we reached the breathtaking view at the top.

The higher we climbed, the more treacherous the curves in the road became. But we were paying little attention to them, talking non-stop, high on a potent amphetamine that we had taken an hour ago at the house. On the last curve before the top, he didn't respond quickly enough and the right front tire plowed into the soft gravel along the shoulder. The tiny car lurched wildly as he wrestled with the steering wheel in a frantic effort to regain control. He slammed on the brakes. I heard the tires shriek and a second later, we had skidded off the pavement and were hurtling over the edge of a cliff, plunging downward into the darkness below.

Life Force Books appreciates authors whose work is based on self-exploration
and empirical knowledge. Discoveries in the self that are torn from raw life experimentation can then be generalized and applied to others. Judith Orloff has applied this process to Second Sight.
