Within the energy system perceived as the body there are seven centers that draw that energy from Universal Substance. Each center transforms the energy drawn through it by giving it a certain quality. The quality given reflects the purpose of the center; the purpose of each center is to provide one aspect of a complete individualized consciousness, the experience of a total person. “...our wisdom system approaches the centers differently than the traditional Indus Valley system. We consider each center to be equally important, for without them all a person would not exist. We do not consider the higher centers to be sacred and the lower to be profane—that is religion, not knowledge. We can see the lower centers as most developed in ordinary people; their higher centers appear underdeveloped and this accounts for unawareness and random, ineffectual thoughts and behaviors. Development of the higher centers is essential, for through them comes the energy needed for expanded awareness and all-embracing command of the physical world. When properly developed, they form a triad of great power.” —Mani Choejor, B’on Sorceress of the Zhang Zhung tradition This volume is protected under the laws of the United States of America, the Republic of Nepal, and the bylaws of the Central Tibetan Administration.

Perhaps they will remain when all the works of our reason have passed away.” —Will Durant, Ph.D., recipient of the Pulitzer Prize and the Medal of Freedom “[O]f the early religion of Tibet, concerning which but very imperfect accounts are existing, so much is certain, that sorcery was the principle feature of it.” — H.A. Jäschke, A Tibetan-English Dictionary, London, 1881 Famed British writer Arthur C. Clarke—whose imagination and insight influenced modern science via works like his classic '2001: A Space Odyssey’— formulated three prediction-related adages, known as Clarke's three laws, which are formulated as follows: Clarke's first law: “When a distinguished scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is almost certainly wrong.” Clarke's second law: “The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.” Clarke's third law: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Clarke's third law neatly highlights the dilemma faced by anyone—from a technologically advanced culture or otherwise—who is confronted by what is generally, in the contemporary Western context, considered to be inexplicable, beyond the limits of the possible, and therefore “impossible.” That said, I will straightaway take this opportunity to point out that this book narrates experiences with a rare and unique individual which were wholly inexplicable in the ordinary sense. These ‘non-ordinary’ events demonstrated the ability of that individual to psychokinetically manipulate physical “reality” in a manner that is not ordinarily accepted in the Western world as part of the field of human activity, and could therefore be considered impossible. Nonetheless, such psychokinetic events occurred, as unmistakably witnessed by myself and my companions on many, many occasions. The purpose of this book is to illustrate those ‘non-ordinary’ events and fully explore the knowledge that made them possible. As a result, this book is not for everyone, nor was it intended to be. Knowledge, like a magnificent sunrise, is a state of consciousness that varies with its viewer. Yet experience has proven that many readers will find the knowledge revealed in this book inspires them, enlightens them, and resonates within them. This is perfectly natural—truth seems always a reincarnation or echo, since truth remains the same through a thousand generations—truth is timeless, only doubt is new. As Schopenhauer sagely and concisely observed, “All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” This book, then, is written for those who, for the sake of greater knowledge, are willing to venture beyond what currently seems possible or explicable. B’on was the religion prevalent in Tibet long prior to the arrival of Buddhism and, in its transcendentalism, was much like Taoism. The Tibetans have called their country Bo for thousands of years, sometimes adding Khawajen, “Land of the Snows.” It was not until around the eighth-century A.D. that Lamaism— which may be loosely defined as Tantric Buddhism—took firm root in Tibet. A century earlier it had entered Tibet from Nepal, land of the Buddha Siddhārtha Gautama's ancestors, through the Tibetan King Srvong-Tsan-Gampo's marriage to a daughter of the royal family of Nepal, and from China, by the King's marriage to a princess of the Chinese Imperial Family. Under the influence of his two Buddhist wives—one can only imagine—he accepted Buddhism, and made it the state religion. The exact nature of original B’on is difficult to determine, since early academic descriptions of it are from the Buddhist perspective and intended to discredit it. After the first diffusion of Buddhism into Tibet in the eighth-century, B’on was persecuted under Tibet’s Buddhist rulers, but it survived and became more organized at the time of the second diffusion of Buddhism in the eleventh- century. Modern B’on, at least externally, appears similar to Tibetan Buddhism. It is a matter of controversy whether B’on influenced Tibetan Buddhism or the other way around. Those who assert the latter are far from being “neutral” or “objective”—the methods used by historians, philologists, and anthropologists are inevitably socially conditioned and conformed to the recent traditions of the dominant religion, in this case Buddhism. “The very ink with which history is written is merely fluid prejudice.” —Mark Twain According to their own legends and surviving esoteric traditions, we are told that B’on was founded in 16,000 B.C. (Yungdrung Bön, according to the B’on-po), by the earliest known Buddha-like master, Tonpa Shenrab Miwoche. Much like Siddhārtha Gautama, our most recent historical Buddha (circa 563-483 B.C.), Shenrab renounced his life as a prince of the royal family to become a monk. Over a period of “many years,” he gained access to ancient secret knowledge that had been imparted, recorded, and hidden away by an entity referred to as “Gekhoe.” With that knowledge Shenrab achieved enlightenment and “otherworldly powers,” then later composed a comprehensive body of teachings to instruct qualified seekers on the means and techniques of attaining the most elevated wisdom and power. References found in the B’on theogony relate that Gekhoe was “king of the gods” of the ancient kingdom of Zhang Zhung, having arrived from the “heavens” before the dawn of civilization. The B’on theogony recounts how this occurred: From the emptiness of space a “resplendent jeweled egg” descended to earth through the agency of “lha of bright light.” Then, while “radiating brilliant hues on father mountain and mother lake,” the resplendent jeweled egg opened. From this magical egg arose Gekhoe, to become the sovereign “god” of the realm. Thereafter, “in the sky there appeared brilliant lights, melodious sounds in space, and many other wonderful occurrences.” Whatever its origin, B’on incorporated elements similar to Tantra long before and apart from the influence of Buddhism. Tantra is far too complex to explain here, but one should not doubt its deeply shamanic character of spiritism and magic. The rarest form of esoteric B’on contains huge amounts of arcane and elemental magic, in keeping with its view of the cosmos as a psycho-physical unity, able to be manipulated in heightened states of awareness through clandestine techniques and practices. The ancient B’on historical traditions relate that the original doctrine taught by Tonpa Shenrab Miwoche was the ‘Four Portals and the Treasury,’ as follows: • Portal One - ‘White Water’ (chab dkar), which relates the esoteric concepts of the true, underlying nature of reality, the principles of consciousness, and the nature of ultimate being; • Portal Two - ‘Black Water’ (chab nag), which contains technical narratives regarding the techniques of sorcery and magical practices; • Portal Three - ‘Land of Phan’ ('phan yul), which codifies strict rules regarding the use of sorcery in manipulating physical reality and related philosophical and ethical expositions; • Portal Four - ‘Divine Guide’ (dpon gsas), which enshrines and protects the esoteric teachings and reminds that, by tradition, they are protected by surveillant beings, and finally; • ‘The Treasury’ (mtho thog), which serves as an anthology of the primary salient items of the ‘Four Portals’ body of knowledge. These deeply esoteric teachings are founded on a clear premise: “The Universe is but a mirage which exists in the mind, springs from it, is controlled by it, and sinks into it.” (From the opening Stanza of Portal One, ‘White Water’) To understand this remarkable concept in a modern scientific context, we must consider the studies in theoretical physics which have opened so many stunning new vistas into the true nature of what we perceive as “reality.” What we see through the window of quantum physics is utterly unlike our conventional world, simply because we humans are like the people in Plato's cave whose simply because we humans are like the people in Plato's cave whose imaginations are chained by the five ordinary senses and prejudice, and who can see only shadowy representations of the real. Richard Feynman, one of the most distinguished physicists of the twentieth century and winner of the Nobel Prize for his work on quantum electrodynamics, put it this way: “The difficulty really is psychological and exists in the perpetual torment that results from saying to yourself, ‘But how can it be like that?’ which is a reflection of an uncontrolled but utterly vain desire to see it in terms of something familiar. Do not keep saying to yourself, ‘But how can it be like that?’ because you will get into a blind alley from which nobody has yet escaped. Nobody knows how it can be like that.” —Richard Feynman, Nobel Laureate Be like what? Consider for a moment these insights: “As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear-headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of the existence of consciousness. The mind is the matrix of all matter. I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.” —Max Planck, originator of Quantum Mechanics, Nobel Laureate and close associate of Albert Einstein “The universe does not exist ‘out there,’ independent of us. We are inescapably involved in bringing about that which appears to be happening. We are not only observers. We are participators.” —Legendary Physicist John Wheeler “Consciousness cannot be accounted for in physical terms, for consciousness is absolutely fundamental. It cannot be accounted for in terms of anything else. Quantum physics reveals a basic oneness of the universe. Multiplicity is only apparent; in truth, there is only one mind.” —Erwin Schrödinger, Nobel Laureate “To us, the only acceptable point of view appears to be the one that recognizes both sides of reality—the quantitative and the qualitative, the physical and the psychical—as compatible with each other, and can embrace them simultaneously. It would be most satisfactory of all if physis and psyche (matter and mind) could be seen as complementary aspects of precisely the same reality.” —Wolfgang Pauli, Nobel Laureate, recipient of the Lorentz Medal, the Matteucci Medal, and the Max Planck Medal “The atoms or elementary particles themselves are not real; they form a world
