Author Description

This is a research journal/compilation more than a book. Three years in, and Dark Retreat continues to heal the author from an Ayahausca initiation that pushed his bandwidth right to the edge. Of course the Motherboard knows all, but Ayahausca has given a few adventurers a permanent body exit with which to reboot. Darkness took the fear away, healed the adrenal shock, and allowed the space for grace. It seems that Darkness reveals we are all black "wholes" feeding back data to the cosmos. And in the dark the stars turn on, literally, from within. In this expanded third edition, we include a Harvard research team's modernization of The Tibetan Book of the Dead (correctly translated: "Liberate from the cycle of birth and death through hearing".) As we find more masters of Darkness practice, we will continue adding to this text. Some side benefits of Dark Retreats are organ healing, adrenal rejuvenation, and with the Tao exercises, sacred sexuality and heavy metal detox. There's a lot to it... and Master Chia led the way. The Tibetan and Hindu traditions add in their specific enlightenment and rejuvenation paths. And the Kogi, up next for research, have their top Shamans in the Dark for 21 years! It works.
