Yoga Meditation Techniques and the Corresponding Kung-fu (Gong-fu)

So you've been meditating for a while and all sorts of physical and mental phenomena have occurred. These are called "kung-fu," "gong-fu" or "gongfu," just as you hear in martial arts. All cultivation schools recognize these phenomena which can be as simple as shaking vibrations and vivid dreams or as unusual as supernatural visitors, slight psychic abilities or seeing lights in the body. Judaism recognizes these things, Christianity does, so does Islam, Buddhism, Taoism, yoga, Hinduism, Shingon, and all sorts of other genuine spiritual paths. Congratulations. These are often the results of the genuine road of intensified spiritual practice.
