A more controversial aspect of lanmusha's teaching lies in the form he chose to present his information. He used a special phenomenon called channeling to convey his teachings. In fact, this is because lanmusha began to adopt this term in the late 1970s, and everyone knows this term. Ramusha personally taught J.Z. Knight's teachings with his body. Spiritual channel is different from media, and the channel itself will not stay in a changing state. She actually left her body completely, and then let that consciousness fully play a role in her brain and nervous system to gain the ability to completely manipulate her body. J. Z. Knight is the only psychic channel that lanmusha chose to convey his message in person.
Lanmusha did not use his body, but chose a woman as a spiritual channel to convey his message. He said that God and divinity are not only the patents of men, but also women should show their divinity, have talent and become a realized God. It also pointed out that in his philosophy, what is important is not to worship a face or an image, which has caused many failures in the past enlightenment efforts, but to listen to the information itself. It is also stated that the true nature of human beings is not limited to the body or a certain gender. Therefore, within the framework of lanmusha's thought, it is possible to get through the classics. In other words, only when lanmusha's teaching content and explanation of the nature of reality are true can the phenomenon of taking J.Z. Knight as a spiritual channel occur.
The authenticity of this phenomenon shows the credibility of Blue Mu Sha information. This is an important reference point, because scientific progress has developed tests and instruments that can observe this phenomenon in detail and study it from the perspectives of physiology, neurology and psychology. Today's technology can study the phenomenon that J. Z. Knight is a psychic and rule out any possibility of deception. 1996, a senior expert group composed of 12 scholars ── including neuroscientists, psychologists, sociologists and religious experts ── conducted a one-year scientific research on J.Z. Knight before, during and after he became a psychic in lanmusha.
Experts integrated their scientific research and used the most advanced technology and instruments available. They concluded that due to the remarkable excitement of J. Z. Knight's autonomic nervous system response data, they absolutely ruled out all the possibilities of conscious deception, schizophrenia or multiple personality disorders. J. Z. Knight loves her enthusiasm for learning and her spirit of exploration. She devoted herself to great work. Her love for God and all sacred things can not only express this great problem concisely, but also clearly and powerfully express who we are, where we come from and our ultimate destiny. She continued to guide Lan Musha, bringing his teachings to the world, and passed the lanmusha Enlightenment School, which she called a "model school of mind".
Who's J.Z. Knight?
J. Z. Knight (she doesn't like to spell her name with punctuation marks) is the founder and president of lanmusha Enlightenment College, the president of J. Z. Knight Publishing Company and the chairman of J.Z. Knight Humanities Foundation. She is the only psychic channel in Blue Curtain Sand. Ms. J. Z. Knight is recognized by most religious historians as the vane of the new American era, and is also one of the most charming and controversial American spiritual leaders. The following is a concise chronology of her personal life (for more details, see J.Z. Knight's Mind: My Story):
1946: Jessie was born in March 1946 in Roswell General Hospital, New Mexico, USA. His parents are Charles and Helen Hampton. They live in Haagman, New Mexico. Her mother called her Judith, and her full name was Judith Daliana Hampton. Judith comes from the heroine in the Catholic Book of Judith. She is the eighth child of a poor family in Hampton.
1946 turn 1964: Shortly after her birth, her family moved to Rockwall, Texas, to work for the local cotton landowner. Her first spiritual experience influenced her character. When Judith was five years old, her mother moved to Atici, New Mexico with her young children and left her violent and alcoholic husband. Judith started her education in a local school. After her mother married Bill Angley, a local businessman, the family became stable. Judy graduated from Hibiscus High School, 1964.
1965 1976: 1965, she tried to go to college but failed, which led to her marriage and gave birth to two children, brandy and Christopher. The marriage ended on 1969, and Judy moved to Roswell, New Mexico with her small family. As the sole provider of the family, without the support of children, Judy started her cable TV career with her firm belief in God and finally moved to California. Judy got the nickname "Zebra" because of her black and white determination. (This nickname was later simplified to "Jessie /JZ") She gradually made a fortune in her career, and Jessie became a very successful professional woman. After Brian Maiden, Seattle and Komada signed a cable TV contract, Jesse moved to Puget Sound, Washington, remarried and settled in Tacoma.
February 1977: 1977 On the afternoon of Sunday, February 20th, Jessie first saw an extraordinary existence in her kitchen in Tacoma. This is lanmusha.
1978 to 1979: 1978, 1 1 This month, lanmusha was psychic for the first time through J.Z. Knight. "Psychic" is a popular description created by lanmusha. See the psychic process entry below for details. J.Z. Knight and lanmusha held a rally. She began to contact a national public discussion meeting called "Dialogue". In this way, a long and mysterious relationship began. Jesse, the physical body, and the existence of Ramsar and spirit unite to bring information about human divinity to the world.
From 1980 to 1987: She appeared on TV programs in many countries, completed a part of the world tour with lanmusha and his teaching, and publicized her autobiography "Mentality: My Story", which was published by Warner Books on 1987.
1May, 988: At the request of lanmusha, J.Z. Knight founded the Gnosticism School, the lanmusha Enlightenment College, in the United States. The school started from Colorado Snow Mountain (May 22 -28, 532 people attended). Lanmusha introduced a dynamic breathing technique called consciousness and energy. He also introduced quantum physics to students, which became a synthesis of science and spirituality after the initial teaching.
1988 199 1 year: weekend workshops and one-week closed courses allow students to combine teaching with personal experience. Lanmusha introduced new practices and provided practical training, such as long-distance observation, field practice and maze walking, with the aim of letting the mind transcend matter.
1992 1993: divorce case-a considerable controversy about this school in the chaotic media vortex, which is related to the divorce retrial case of the famous J. Z. Knight and her ex-husband Jeffrey Nair (deceased). (It pointed out that all the evidence about "cult", "brainwashing" and "mind control" was rejected by Pierce County High Court Judge Bruce W. Koho. Little known is the final decision. According to the record, not only the controversial part was rejected, but all the arguments put forward by Jeffrey Nair earlier were also rejected. This case is based on the credit value of J. Z. Knight at the time of the original divorce judgment, and Jeffrey Nair received $750,000 in compensation for his controversial decision. This surprised both sides, because it was not the initial issue raised or debated by both sides in this case. The Washington State Court of Appeal later overturned this decision. Doug Corker wrote a memo to Pavel Miklos in1July 20, 998, saying, "This trial court ruled that Jeffrey's various' brainwashing' claims would not be compensated. All these ideas were rejected as meaningless. The compensation was based on the interpretation of the property division agreement between Jesse and Jeffrey by the court of first instance, which was overturned on appeal. 」
1996 1997: Jesse agreed to let scholars study the teaching of the school for one year and finally held a meeting on February 8-9. 1997. The results show that J.Z. Knight and his students have made remarkable progress in psychology and intelligence. Lanmusha Enlightenment College enjoys a new level of acceptance among the academic circles and the public, mainly because of J. Z. Knight's perseverance and her 20-year experience with Ramsar.
1997: On April 22nd, the Austrian Supreme Court ruled that J. Z. Knight was the only allowed psychic passage in Ramusha. 1992, a Berlin woman named Julie Laval claimed to be the true psychic channel of Blue Mu Sha. She held meetings in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, which produced many examples of trademark infringement. J.Z. Knight wants to keep lanmusha's pure doctrine and file a lawsuit against Ravel. 1995, an appeal court in Linz, Austria, ordered Ravel to stop using lanmusha's name to associate with her spiritual course and pay J.Z. Knight's attorney's fees. Ravel appealed to the Austrian Supreme Court, but the Supreme Court upheld the original judgment of the lower court on June 6 1997.
1999: lanmusha Enlightenment College has made a world tour on five continents.
What is channel channeling?
Lanmusha popularized the term "channeling". Prior to this, the spiritual process of communicating with the ether always appeared in the form of "trance media" or "spiritual media" Many people who claim to be in a state of consciousness and connected with spiritual bodies have convincing experience reports. But the process in J. Z. Knight is completely different. Lanmusha called her a "pure channel", which is a very rare anomaly. She actually left her body and went through a long tunnel to meet a brilliant light; It is no different from the death experience of those who were reported legally dead through clinical public diagnosis but returned to the body. Lanmusha around her body, through the process of photosynthesis, through the actual operation of brain stem and cerebellum, he can make the body move, speak and interact with the environment.
J.Z. Knight's body or spirit body, if you like, was not present during the channeling. She doesn't care about being in transition, and she doesn't remember anything that happened when she left. Lanmusha regulates her body and uses her brain like a telephone. In the early days, J. Z. Knight's body had to absorb a lot of water to match the high-frequency vibration of blue wood sand. Now her body is more in line with his frequency and synchronization is easier. Although the term "psychic channel" is widely used, these people do not go through the above process. Some are actually the media, and Edgar Keith is one of them.
The touchstone experiment of this process can now be seen by some people and carefully examined by the scientific community. 1996, J. Z. Knight opened the schools and teaching in lanmusha to the academic circles for a careful inspection. 1996 In the summer, J. Z. Knight accepted a series of psychological and physiological tests, which will permanently establish the definition of spiritual channel.
Prove transcendence?
The results of the above academic tests were announced at a weekend meeting, and 1997 was held at J. Z. Knight's home on February 8-9. An outstanding group of 12 scholars-including scientists, psychologists, sociologists and religious experts from these different institutions: Chicago Theological Seminary, Temple University, Cogged University, University of California, University of Oregon and University of London Berbeck College-studied J.Z. Knight before, during and after Moussa's channeling.
The coordinator, Dr. Joseph Betis, a retired professor of religious studies at the University of Western Washington, and Dr. J. Gordon melton, director of the Institute of American Religion in Santa Barbara, California, and author of the Encyclopedia of American Religion, held a two-day conference entitled "Searching for Self: The Role of Consciousness in Constructing Reality", which covered various issues about Ramsar and psychic phenomena.
Dr. J. Gordon melton, director of the Institute of American Religion in Santa Barbara, California, and author of the Encyclopedia of American Religion, said, "The significance of this conference is that it represents the beginning of important academic research that has been ignored by academic circles for a long time." .
A team of high-quality psychologists led by Dr. Stanley Kripner of Sebrok Institute conducted a one-year study on J.Z. Knight and her school, and conducted a series of psychological and physiological tests with highly sensitive equipment. Their conclusion is that the data extracted from Ms. J. Z. Knight's autonomic nervous system is quite strong, and scientists have explicitly ruled out any possibility of conscious forgery, schizophrenia or multiple personality disorders.
Dr. Stanley Kripner is a psychologist. He studied with Dr. Ian Wickramasekera, a professor and colleague of Sebrook Institute. He is an outstanding neurologist and a leader in American psychological research. Before completing these tests, he described himself as "very skeptical, but open-minded".
Kripner said: "When we tested Jesse, Ian was quite surprised, because when Ramsar joined in, the pointer on his detector (used to draw all psychological and physiological reactions) jumped from one place on the page to another. He has never seen such a huge change. " Kripner said: "(We) are very surprised by the drastic changes since Ramusha came in. 」
"She didn't pretend," he added, "because we connected her to test her physiological response, and the results we got could not be manipulated. According to Wickramasekera, president-elect of the Colorado Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback, when J. Z. Knight entered a state of consciousness and lanmusha's mental body took over her body, her heart rate reached a low of 40 beats per minute, and then accelerated to 65,438+080 beats per minute. During normal rest, J.Z. Knight's heart rate is between 85 and 90. " You may see this when someone is jogging or having a serious panic attack, but Ms. J. Z. Knight is completely sitting still. 」
"For the research team, it is obvious that something very dramatic and physiological has happened, and something based on human ability knowledge cannot be forged. Kripner explained: "A person really can't pretend, really can't function, because there are few physiological changes under hypnosis. Role-playing will hardly change. 」
"After noticing all the dramatic data collected, when we left the house, I could only roughly say to Jesse,' Well, Jesse, I don't know what you are, but at least you are not an impostor or a liar. I don't know what this rash speech means to her, because she has been accused for years, he continued. Ian and I are very surprised that these data are so striking and unique. Ian and I published this research without hesitation. Wickramasekera presented this material in the American Psychological Association, which is a very prestigious place in this field. Kripner presented this discovery at some scientific conferences. The first article about this research, a phenomenological analysis, appeared in 1998.
According to J. Gordon melton, Wickramasekera was not interested in this research at first, but he didn't expect such a great achievement. Driven by his passion, Wickramasekera recorded and tested the physiological results of J. Z. Knight's channeling for Blue Mu Sha. He explained how to conduct eight standard tests, namely, physical, psychological and behavioral tests that are known to be effective and reliable. "You fish with a big net," Wickramasekera said. "We didn't expect eight nets to have fish. 」
For students in lanmusha, the difference between this tutor and his psychic channel is obvious. Some students even perceive their differences. Dr. Gail Harry said, "Her eyes changed from the mild and obvious blue in J.Z. Knight to lanmusha, and she didn't notice the dark gray eyes. As a blue Moussa, her complexion darkens, her chin lines are hard and straight, and her behavior is radical and formal. Her pace became an English gait. " Harry concluded that it was impossible for J.Z. Knight to play or pretend to be Blue Mu Sha. "When Blue Mu Sha was in control, the dramatic changes she showed were so convincing. 」

Physiological and psychological tests
Dr Stanley Krippner, Dr Ian and Dr Judy Wickramasekera, and Charles W. Winstead III of Sai Pruck Institute and Research Center.
Eight standardized physiological function measurements of autonomic nervous responses before, during and after the whole process of psychic blue curtain sand collected from J. Z. Knight;
* Frontal muscle flap electromyography
* trapezius electromyography
* Left skin temperature
* Right skin temperature
* Heartbeat
* Volume pulse wave
* left skin electrical response
* Right skin electrical response
The results of these physiological tests prove that when J.Z. Knight channeled lanmusha, her muscle tension, pulse and skin current responses increased, but her skin temperature and blood volume decreased. Members of these scientific experiments include Dr. Stanley Puller and Dr. Dick, who used to be the president of the American Super Psychology Society and a professor of psychology at the Pruck Institute. They confirmed that J. Z. Knight could not change all eight test results with his own will, nor could he pretend to get it.
Psychological and related behavioral tests include:
* Pay attention to the sub-rating scale
* Separation Experience Rating Scale
:: Model questionnaire
* Phenomenological test
* Stanford Gold Standard for Hypnotic Acceptance
* Average of eye movement signs
Dr. Dick said that the results of these tests are of great significance and said: "After confirmation, she is not pretending to be sick or mentally ill. Psychological tests also include Stanford's hypnotic acceptance test, and Dr. Dick said, "J.Z. Knight's test scores in this area are also extremely high. 」
What other research findings?
J.z· Knight and some of her students also took some psychological tests. Dr. Stanley Kripner, former president of the American Psychiatric Association and professor of psychology at the Sebrok Institute in San Francisco, said, "J.Z. Knight and his students have tested their hypnotic ability quite high." Kripner went on to explain that this is a major discovery, because the relationship between hypnotic ability and extreme personality (schizophrenia) and other organ disorders is balanced: when one goes up, the other goes down. "You can't have it both ways," he said.
Relationship with the community?
Charles Levanet, an independent historian who studies the history of pasture/community relations, mentioned in his paper "Meeting lanmusha on a proud pasture" that "in the early years, the community showed signs of anxiety about J. Z. Knight. They used erected walls and cast iron gates to explain that some hidden harmful things were happening. A small group of townspeople once put their hands on the white wall and prayed to God to drive away evil spirits for J.Z. Knight. Others threw stones at her window. 」
J.Z. Knight has been called Satan's daughter for many years. Her son felt the sting of ignorance and prejudice in the school in Yem town. In the late 1980s, an unidentified man shot and killed J.Z. Knight. The bullet missed her, but it hit the lawn mower she operated.
As students from lanmusha began to move to Yem Town, they had a certain negative reaction to their motherland, which must be related to J.Z. Knight. However, according to the demographic data, this town is obviously growing, regardless of the influx of students. This is a conclusion of Levin. Gayles Kono, a local resident, said, "Many people enjoy the peace and tranquility in their towns and are disgusted with the influx of people. They also resent what those people have done. They hate increasing taxes. In any case, the town of Yem will grow, but some of us blame it on these growth and changes. 」
Levane said it was understandable why the remote community in Yem Town, then a rural area, might be afraid of J. Z. Knight and those teachings. "People are afraid of unfamiliar groups, whether it is a halfway house or a group of people with non-traditional religious ideas. Levin concluded, "These citizens have become enlightened in their own way. 」
J.Z. Knight Humanities Foundation
Since 1988, J. Z. Knight has donated $65,438+$0.65,438+$0.865,438+$ 0.067.93 to 200 high school graduates who may further their studies. 1996 The total amount is $280,000 for 39 fresh graduates. Carol Parker, a high school teacher in Yem Town, said; "Jesse has done a lot for the children in our community. Her generous scholarship gave them the opportunity to further their studies. 」
Jesse's generosity didn't stop at Yem Town. She also sponsored two young women from Greece to study in American universities. For these two teenagers from non-English speaking countries, the only premise is that if they want to go, they must learn the language in advance. Both sides have done so. One of them attached a report card to Jessie's recent letter, which showed that she got an A and entered the list of excellent students. The girl couldn't speak English two years ago.
Jessie and her students are involved in many community projects. In the past few years, Jesse has been supporting a youth football team called Yemen Cavaliers. She also sponsored six teams to participate in three Babe Ruth Junior League matches. Jesse also supported the efforts of alternative schools and generously donated to two such schools. Surprisingly, Ms. J. Z. Knight even donated $3,000 to the local church group at the last minute to help the Ugandan people in Kampala. The group has enough money, but they need extra money because of the last-minute exchange rate change. J.Z. Knight contacted this Christian church organization.
Vicky Cady, a long-term administrative assistant of J.Z. Knight, said; "Jessie is the most generous person I have ever met. Another employee said, "lanmusha has always emphasized the importance of giving. Jesse fully demonstrated a rather rare spirit of generosity. "The religious scholar Dr. Franklin Little said;" For religious activities or philosophical activities, it is easy to emphasize self-reflection and forget the people outside and the community outside. J. Z. Knight emphasized her sense of responsibility for the well-being of community and non-school members. 」
J. Z. Knight's real estate
J.Z. Knight's home and school are located in Yem Town, just outside the city, about half an hour east from Olympia National Road (SR)5 10. This property is called "pasture" by local people, because in fact, J.Z. Knight and her ex-husband used to be breeders and trainers of Arabian horses, and there were as many as 120 horses at one time. With the depression of Arabian horse industry, the cause was dissolved and horses were sold. There are currently six horses in Jesse's residence.
Located at the foot of Mount Rainier, this ranch is a particularly beautiful, deep and quiet place. The majestic cedars and firs endow this land with beauty and eternal significance.
The property includes J. Z. Knight's personal residence, 65,438+02,800 square feet white French castle style house with four bedrooms; Her old home (1, 600 square feet house, now used as an office); Lobby (a 65,438+05,375-square-foot indoor riding field for training horses, renovated and covered with artificial grass, which can accommodate 1000 people); And the adjacent barn (now almost entirely used by the office); A former stallion (now used as a bookstore on campus during the course) and some other ancillary buildings. In recent years, Ms. J. Z. Knight has also purchased two adjacent plots of land to ensure the safety and privacy of course participants.
