About Mantak Chia


Grandmaster Mantak Chia is the world’s foremost Taoist Master. He is the only Qigong Master who received The Qigong Master of the Year Award twice. He is the author of 60 books and has 49 years of teaching experience —online and onsite.

The classes with Mantak Chia are unique, thanks to his ability to transmit energy to his students, online or in the classroom. Many students practicing with Master Chia not only witness the wisdom of primordial violet light during his Energy Transmissions but also begin their initial healing processes.

Welcome to the first beginner-friendly Darkroom practices course with Grandmaster Mantak Chia! Meditating in a darkroom is an Ancient Tao practice for health, healing and higher consciousness. During this course, you can create a darkroom in your home and follow Taoist Pi Gu diet (optional).

In the darkness, your mind and soul begin to wander freely in the vast realms of psychic and spiritual experience. Complete darkness profoundly changes the sensory sensibilities of the body/brain. When you enter this primordial state or force you are reunited with the true self and divinity within. You literally ‘conduct’ the universal energy. You may see into the past and future, understand the true meaning of existence, and begin to understand the order of things.

You will get step-by-step explanations on the first day of the course and be guided through meditations to quieten your mind and give your body an incredible rest, supporting its natural rejuvenation. 

Join this course for 5 or 9 days and reset yourself with Taoist secrets of Darkroom. 

If you would like to participate in this course onsite at Tao Garden resort, Thailand – please click here.

               

During the Course, you will get:

  • LIVE Audio lessons (no video) and slides with explanations in ebooklets
  • The chance to experience the legendary Darkroom practices and Master Chia’s energy transmission
  • The opportunity to ask Master Chia all your questions during a Q&A session
  • Self-paced workshop “Fusion of 5 Elements” (if you book full course)
  • Ebook “Darkness Technology”
  • E-booklets​ with explanations
  • Lifetime access to all provided videos and materials
               

This Course is for you if you are:

  • A beginner looking to transform your health, vitality, emotions, and sexual energy under the guidance of a legendary Taoist teacher
  • Looking to experience complete stillness in the darkness to reset your biological clock and to access higher states of consciousness and wisdom
  • Willing to deepen your meditation practice and start to see the Primordial light
  • Looking to experience Advanced Taoist meditations and spiritual transformation through higher level practices

What is Pi Gu?

 

Pi Gu is an ancient Taoist method of fasting for spiritual and healing purposes. It translates from Chinese as “stop eating grain.”
Used by ancient Taoist masters during their months or years of solitary retreat in pursuit of enlightenment, the practice centers on a simple diet of fruits, teas, nuts, and eggs paired with special chewing techniques.
During the Pi Gu state, the need for food decreases yet the body’s energy levels actually increase. The body gathers Qi (Life force) not from food but from Taoist practices and the “golden elixir” produced by the special chewing practices. This Qi charges your internal organs, activating the body’s natural healing abilities and enabling you to draw energies from the Earth and Universe. In the pi gu state the body automatically balances itself, the mind is more relaxed, and sleep improves.

During the workshop you can follow the Pi Gu diet and prepare special food to meet the particular requirements of the body, mind, and spirit in attaining the goals of darkness enlightenment. See below how to organize it and where to order Pi Gu pills.

How can I create a darkroom at home?

 

During the years of pandemic, we figured out how to hold the Darkroom workshops online and how our students can recreate this ancient technology and Pi Gu fasting in their own homes. This online experience proved to be a total success.

1) Order temporarily blackout blinds for windows. They stick on by static electricity without any adhesives, so they don’t leave any marks. Just pull, tear, stick and enjoy the Darkroom environment in your own home: 

You can order Magic Blackout Blind   here  or   here

2) Order Pi Gu energy pills and herbal detox sets from Tao Garden, Thailand ( Delivery time to the USA and Europe is about 15-20 days).

3) Prepare food according to the number of days you will be in the Darkroom. In the Darkroom we maintain the Pi Gu fasting state, so you should be completely free from grains, dairy, meats, egg yolks and processed foods.

FAQ

How many days should I stay in the darkness?
For people who have both never done a dark retreat before and have also never spent much time in solitude, we recommend starting with 3-5 days of darkness (1-5 September of the workshop).
For those who have never done a dark retreat before but have either spent extensive time alone, have a solid daily meditation practice, or feel deeply at peace & comfortable within themselves, we recommend taking all 9 days of the workshop.
I am a total beginner in Tao practices. Can I take only In-Depth meditations workshop (6-9 September)?
We recomend to start from Fundamental meditations workshop (Sep 1-5). For participation in the workshop of 6-9 September only you need to have a prior knowledge of Fusion 1 workshop with Master Mantak Chia or UHT Instructors.
Will I get a certificate of attendance?
Yes, all participants of Tao Garden workshops with Mantak Chia get a certificate at the end of the Workshop. This certificate doesn’t give the permission of teaching. Learn more about certification steps to become a certified instructor: Click here
Will I be able to see the violet light?
It depends on how active your pineal gland is already but mostly we see the Violet Light around 3rd-4th days.
Is there a special way to come out of the darkroom at the end of the retreat?
After several days in complete darkness, the iris becomes very sensitive to light, so you need to go out during the night and spend some time in artificial light before you go back into the daylight.
What languages will be workshops translated into?
Master Mantak Chia will teach in English. There will be no translations.
How can I ask my questions during the class?
You'll be able to ask questions by text using Q&A in Zoom. Senior Instructors will reply back and during Q&A session Master Chia will reply to your questions.
