The Loosh paradigm and theocratics powers

Understanding humanity as being nothing more than an experiment by some other race with higher consciousness is uncomfortable to say the least. It smashes our anthropocentric conception of reality, taking away the sovereign crown that we received in the first verses of Genesis; moreover, it diminishes us to the perceived status of the very animals and vegetables on which we feed or experiment.

It is disturbing to think about the existence of entities that enjoy more freedom than we possess, who use their freedom to feed upon and study us. It is unquestionably easier to believe in the fables of the Holy Scriptures where we are treated better and elevated to a higher place for our peace of mind: we are the sovereigns of Creation! It suffices merely to bow our head, comply with some laws, avoid working on Saturdays and when faced with inconvenience, offer some blood sacrifice. In a context that may be less histrionic, Mangasar Mangasarian, author of How the Bible Was Invented, has something interesting to say:

An Extraordinary Book, a book which claims infallibility; which aspires to absolute authority over mind and body; which demands unconditional surrender to all its pretensions upon penalty of eternal damnation, is an extraordinary book and should, therefore, be subjected to extraordinary tests. Neither Christian priests nor Jewish rabbis approve of applying to the Bible the same tests by which other books are tried. Why? Because it will help the Bible? It can not be that. Because it might hurt the Bible? We can think of no other reason. The Truth is that the Bible is a collection of writings of unknown date and authorship rendered into English from supposed copies of supposed originals unfortunately lost.

However, today there is ample academic certainty about the source material that could have given rise to the Pentateuch: the publication of the ancient Epic of Gilgamesh by assyriologist George Smith, who at the end of the 19th century translated it from cuneiform tablets that recount the Universal Deluge, wherein the Akkadian Utnapishtim is identified with the biblical Noah in the utmost direct way. David Cangá Corozo in his book La Conspiración del Ángel Gabriel connects this story with other Mesopotamian poems:

In the Enuma Elish are related cosmic events that occurred during the creation of the solar system, the Atrahasis tells us the events that occurred from the activities of the Anunnaki on this planet before and during the creation of man until the Flood, and in the Sumerian King List, we are given details of the first human civilizations. Combining the stories of these three Mesopotamian epic poems, we can put together an account parallelling the story of the creation of the biblical Genesis; in fact, George Smith published in 1876, his now famous book The Chaldean Genesis, where he suggests that, by the various similarities, the epic poem Enuma Elish and the Hebrew Genesis refer to the same creation story. According to these tablets, thousands of years ago, from somewhere —we speculate that from the cosmos, or from some other dimension— some beings came to Earth, with the intention of extracting materials. These beings are called the Anunnaki, which means “those who came down from Heaven to Earth.” The Anunnaki were ruled by a hierarchical system based on lineage, where the leader of all was An (Anu), who had two sons: Enlil and Enki, who were the leaders of the planet Earth mission.

The story of the Atrahasis is more than intriguing, especially if we connect its legendary content with ufological views; in fact, it is a story that could be considered gnostic and, pondering its exquisite literary touch, even graced with a remarkable lovecraftian background: mysterious beings come to Earth to perform certain works of “material extraction.” They were of varied categories: the godlike leaders, among whom we find Anu, Enlil and Enki, and their subordinate workers, generically referred to as the Igigi deities.⁽¹⁾ After a time, a revolt occurs and the latter, complaining about the demanding conditions, refuse to continue with their labors. After negotiations with the Igigi were exhausted, Enki solved the problem by designing a specialized worker by making use of the body of a sacrificed Igigi, from where Anunnaki genes are extracted, together with Belet-ili, the “goddess matrix,” so that finally: “A god and a man mix together in clay.”

It is striking to find a point of contact here with the work of the anthropologist Carlos Castaneda, particularly his book The Active Side of Infinity, where Don Juan tells him that, “the predators gave us their mind, that it became our mind.” If we read the first volume of Textos Gnósticos: Biblioteca de Nag Hammadi (chapter Sobre el Origen del Mundo) we also come across something similar:

When (the archons) had finished Adam, (the prince) placed him in a vessel, for it had taken the form of an abortion devoid of spirit. Because of this, when the great archon remembered the word of Pistis, he feared that the real man would penetrate his creature and become the lord (of the archon) [...]

When Adam arrived, they saw that Eve was talking to him, they said [among the Archons]: “What is this luminous thing? For it resembles the similarity that was manifested to us in the light. Let's capture her and pour our seed into her, so that she is sullied and can no longer return to its Light. Besides, those who are born of her will be under our obedience.”

If we view this story from a ufological or hyperdimensional perspective, we may propose a broader conception: some extraterrestrial entities came to Earth in order to exploit its resources; these beings, organized under a strict hierarchy, sent their subordinates to perform a laborious and tiring task: while the higher gods remained in the heaven-reality (in Fourth Density) the work of the Igigi, by contrast, took place in physical reality (in Third Density). What work was it that agonized the Igigi deities? The Atrahasis informs us that: “The gods had to dig channels. They had to clean the channels, the lifelines of the earth. The gods dug the Tigris River and then excavated the Euphrates.” Were they terraforming? Reference to the lifelines of the earth quickly connect us with the Ley Lines: the famous energetic alignments that the druids called Nwyvre (terrestrial dragon) where we find the old monuments, the megalithic constructions next to sacred places. ⁽²⁾

Robert Monroe, in his book Far Journeys, mentioned a similar perspective: entities from a higher level of reality, in their eagerness to obtain a “scarce good” that would be found within the organic molecules disseminated throughout the galaxy, perform a series of biological experiments, starting with the First and Second Crops, that is, the Stationaries or vegetables and the Mobiles or animals; this “scarce good,” called Loosh, is easily collected when it emerges in a conflict situation, especially during the death of a living organism:

As the Second Crop grew scarce, energy needs of the Mobiles became acute. Often two Mobiles would seek to ingest the identical Second Crop unit. This created Conflict, which resulted in physical struggle among two or more of the ungainly Mobiles. Someone observed these struggles, at first bemused with the problem, then with great interest. As the struggles ensued, the Mobiles were emanating Loosh! Not in fractional amounts, but in sizable, usable quantities and of a much higher purity.

He quickly put the theory to the test. He removed another unit of First Crop from the liquid Garden area, redesigned it for the gaseous environment—but with one significant change. The new Mobile would be somewhat smaller, but would require the ingestion of other Mobiles for nourishment. This would solve the problem of overpopulation of Mobiles, and at the same time would create good quantities of usable Loosh during each conflict-struggle, plus a bonus if the new class of Mobile terminated the life span of the other.

In this paradigm, conflict among organic life of the Earth —the Garden of the Deities, which John Keel conveniently named Disneyland of the Gods— generates a source of vital energy, arising from the struggle for survival; these Sowers or Cosmic Farmers, equipped the animals with fangs, claws, speed and dexterity in order to augment victim-predator combat and thus increase the collection of Loosh. But finally they came up with a novel prototype that they had taken great effort in designing and a considerable time in perfecting: the Fourth Crop, the human being, an experimental model that surpassed all the other previous crops:

The Fourth Crop exceeded all of Someone's expectations. It became apparent that a consistent, useful flow of Loosh was being produced in the Garden. The balance of "life" operated perfectly, with the Conflict Factor producing immense amounts of Loosh and a steady supplement brought into being by the constant life-span terminations from all types of Mobiles and Stationaries.

To handle the output, Someone set up special Collectors to aid in the harvest. He set up Channels to convey the raw Loosh from his Garden to Somewhere. No longer did Somewhere depend principally upon the “wild state” as the principal source of Loosh. The Garden of Someone had ended that. With the success of the Garden and the production of Loosh by cultivated means, Others began to design and build their Gardens.

To reap such harvest, the Collectors generated storms of turbulence and turmoil in both the gaseous envelope and the more solid chemical formations that were the base of the Garden itself. Such upheavals had the effect of terminating life spans of multitudes of the Fourth Crop as they were crushed under the rolling base formation or smothered under waves from the agitated liquid area of the Garden.

We find then an interesting explanation for the origin and fall of human civilizations, one far removed from any anthropocentric view and in line with the gnostic teachings of early Christianity. Further, it is understandable that the work that the Collectors (the Anunnaki: the Igigi deities of the Atrahasis poem) disregarded was to be, in some way, “embodied” in the physical plane of Third Density, namely by processing raw materials there into more refined types of Loosh. For it is more convenient to design a Stationary automata that converts solar energy into chemical energy, have others robots with greater mobility harvest these sugars and starches for nourishment, and then have these mobile robots serve as food for even more sophisticated automatons that feed on their fat and protein reserves. With every wounding, phagocytosis or death, useful subtle energy is released for the Sowers—the leading gods of the extraterrestrial hierarchy—in Fourth Density. Under this framework, it is easy to understand the insatiable needs of Yahweh and his tenacious demands of blood sacrifice; in fact, it also explains the conflicts, battles and wars to which he subjected his “chosen people,” and it illustrates the appropriateness of the nickname The Lord of Hosts.

Upon arriving at the explanation of the Fourth Crop, it is only logical to deduce that Loosh of higher purity is, in short, what psychologists identify as libido, the Freudian sexual drive that Carl Gustav Jung later pointed out as the psychic energy—the vital pulse of subsistence, what the psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich reasoned as the so-called orgone energy: the qi (chi) of the Taoism teachings. In short, the Fourth Crop is the final link in the trophic chain that completes the “extraction of materials,” from the rudimentary sugars and starches of the Stationary, to the proteins and fats of the Mobiles, to the formula for the distilled Loosh of humanity: the subtle energies that arise from orgasm, suffering, anxiety and melancholy. Moreover, certain humans, abject in the eyes of the alien control system, can be tampered with via ultors or implants, which operate as psychic fetters.

Our beloved brothers in the Quest for Truth may try to connect, as the key to Alchemy, this strand of knowledge with the collection and preservation of the "subtle hydrogens" in the instinctive and emotional centers. Monroe later asked himself:

The loosh rote explained everything very neatly. Most important, it explained the purpose, the reason for it all, the why of it. This factor had long eluded me. The loosh answer was simple and obvious. The reason was there, in very prosaic fashion. We were indeed producing Something of Value. Loosh. If one finally was able to get past the emotional barriers involved, it became hard even then to find holes in the general concept. An explanation of total human behavior and history.

Loosh, an energy generated by all organic life in varying degrees of purity, the clearest and most potent coming from humans—engendered by human activity which triggers emotion, the highest of such emotions being—love? Is love loosh?

Like the ancient Gnostic teachings of the early Coptic schools, the modern New Age movement saw something similar to the paradigm presented by Robert Monroe. In her channeled material, Barbara Marciniak provided a surprisingly analogous explanation of an agenda dating back to the beginning of the genetic manipulation of humanity approximately 300,000 years ago—a date close to that given in the Cassiopaean Transcripts: 309,000 years—which, when divided by the measure of a Platonic year (25,776 years) produces a quantity close to 12, representing the end of an era or major cycle:

Consciousness communicates continuously. Consciousness vibrates, or can be led to vibrate, at certain electromagnetic frequencies. Electromagnetic energies of consciousness can be influenced to vibrate in a certain way to create a source of food. Just as apples can he prepared and eaten in a variety of ways, consciousness can be prepared and ingested in a variety of ways.

Some entities, in the process of their own evolution, began to discover that as they created life and put consciousness into things through modulating the frequencies of forms of consciousness, they could feed themselves; they could keep themselves in charge. They began to figure out that this is how Prime Creator nourishes itself. Prime Creator sends out others to create an electromagnetic frequency of consciousness as a food source for itself.

The new owners of this planet had a different appetite and different preferences than the former owners. They nourished themselves with chaos and fear. These things fed them, stimulated them, and kept them in power. These new owners who came here 300,000 years ago are the magnificent beings spoken of in your Bible, in the Babylonian and Sumerian tablets, and in texts all over the world. They came to Earth and rearranged the native human species. They rearranged your DNA in order to have you broadcast within a certain limited frequency band whose frequency could feed them and keep them in power.

Rosicrucianism discovered this same issue centuries ago but kept it secret, only revealing it to its more advanced adepts, probably due to the ontological shock it could produce in an unprepared mind. Before immersing ourselves in the analysis of their knowledge, we would like to mention the works of Kyle Griffith, whom we have previously commented upon and warned the reader about. We mention Griffith not because we take his book, War in Heaven, at face value, but rather because a careful reading will allow us to observe that the two factions therein, the Theocrats and the Invisible College, demonstrate familiar hyperdimensional tactics, wielding a spurious consideration for the free will of humans. If the trained eye can connect the Invisible College with the sects of European enlightenment (Hermetic, Masonic, Rosicrucian and other energetic embezzlements), a large part of our preventative mission may be considered fulfilled.

Under the aegis of the excellent works of the English scholar Frances Yates, the Rosicrucian movement was born during the 15th and 16th centuries in the bosom of Catholicism by the hands of two renaissance priests: Marsilio Ficino and Giordano Bruno. Both cultivated their studies in the shadow of the venerable Corpus Hermeticum, a work attributed to the Egyptian priest Hermes Trismegistus—although neither of them realized that it had been really forged by Christians—with the addition of treatises on Kabbalah and medieval Alchemy.⁽³⁾ Leaving the historical details for another occasion, the Rosicrucian paradigm—unlike the Masonic one that submits itself to the Great Architect or Demiurge—exposes the Decans, the Chaldean demons or the Lords of the Zodiac, who coldly govern the physical plane and must be appeased by frequent sacrifices; nowadays, hermetic orders call them Archons of Destiny, that is, the powers that be. In short, the Archons abuse and make use of the humans as an organic slave designed to collect and harvest, through his earthly experience, a useful energy product at the cosmic level called Askokin, of similar properties to the aforementioned Loosh. The late master of the Chilean Rosicrucian order and director of the Hermetic Philosophical Institute, John Baines (Dario Salas Sommer), commented:

If we were evil gods or immoral spoilers, we could not devise anything better to make a group of slaves work quietly than to make them believe through collective hypnosis that they are happy and important. We would have perfect protoplasm automatons that would work tirelessly producing what interests us. In addition, these robots would manufacture and maintain themselves.

To complete this review and return to our biblical analysis in relation to the Mosaic theocracy, in his book The Stellar Man, Baines refers to the failed work of Moses during the liberation of the Jews from their slavery in Egypt. Through ritualistic invocation by the use of the sacred Egyptian arts, Moses summoned a demonic entity which, curiously, Baines only mentions with the initial Y.:

Everybody knows that Moses appeared floating in a basket down a river and was subsequently adopted, deceiving the Egyptian priests of the time. They took him for an Egyptian and initiated him into the mysteries of ritual magic, which is a method for making the key notes of Nature vibrate, and thus produce certain phenomena which the operator wishes to achieve. The study of atomic physics shows us that it is theoretically possible to produce changes or transmutations in matter; therefore, there is nothing miraculous about these mutations being achieved by means of secret procedures. In spite of his esoteric identification with Egyptian magic, Moses was always loyal to his ancestral blood. Thus, his most powerful wish was to make himself the leader who would free his people from enslavement, leading them to the promised land. Guided by this desire, and conscious of the powerful forces he had learned to control, Moses had a daring idea: to make a magic pact or alliance with an angel, a divine creature charged with the task of providing him with power and assistance from heaven to save his people.

After lengthy preparations done in deep solitude, he performed the ritual ceremony with magic words and corresponding invocations. In the midst of amazing atmospheric and terrestrial phenomena, an impressive being appeared, making Moses tremble with fear and panic, due to the tremendous force it projected. It will never be possible to know or even imagine the conditions under which the pact between man and heaven was made. The angel agreed to everything Moses requested and promised his help, demanding the strictest obedience in return. He revealed his name as Y., and requested that as a sign of union, all his followers should undergo a small ritual surgical operation, with a light discharge of blood. Every man who underwent this would come to be a son of Y. The blood that was shed sealed the pact.

From that day forward, Moses was invested with superhuman powers and started doing all kinds of magical feats, converting the Ark of the Covenant into the center of his power. Plagues and calamities fell over Egypt, and non-believers and rebels were struck down by the wrath of Y. In this manner, Moses' people started the Exodus that would last forty years.

Later, Y., the occult power behind the leader, suddenly started to change his procedures by formulating strange demands, all of which had the shedding of blood as the common denominator.

Moses was overcome with fear and started to become aware of the magnitude of the error he committed. He then understood that the divine angel was in truth an angel of darkness, the complete opposite of the luminous power he had intended to invoke. This infernal angel was a member of the host of shadows. In order to maintain its power and strength, this vampire needed to feed on human blood, an essence charged with the vitality conferred by the divine spark. This is why all through the Exodus, so many blood-shedding incidents occurred, provoked by the occult dictator.

Drachomachia: the First Regime of the Mercury of the Sages

The unusual word harnelmiatznel in the complex semantics of the prestigious moustached bald man could be a starting point for the Candidate of the Science because this word hides the secret origins that will conduct the exoneration of the entropic reality. It is possible that during the first igneous washes that warm the surface of the athanor, neophytes may be allowed to doubt about the dose and mixture of the hermetic component. However, once the First Regime of Mercury ends, the nocturnal boiling of the Humid Radical will rule any sad indulgence in the difficult path of the follower.

And with a certain irony, the cryptic Chymical Weddings of the Rosicrucians will clarify the complex term harnelmiatznel, i.e. “the upper part is connected to the lower part, and it joins together in the middle.” If our beloved brothers in the Quest of Truth carefully analyze, they will discover that there is a valuable source in the roots of life that reveals our cherished philosophy, which is impoverished by weak impulses of an inferior nature. However, once the fire is calmed and sublimated, this philosophy contributes to the alchemical union with the invisible and pervasive celestial agent. Now, which is this external element needed in the celestial agriculture? Gurdjieff in Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson states:

At the present time, very many of these monasteries exist there, and the large number of monks who enter them do indeed strictly abstain from the ejection, in the habitual way, of the 'being-exioëhary,' or 'sperm,' formed in them, but of course this abstinence of theirs never gives any sensible result. And this is because the thought never enters the heads of these hapless contemporary 'monks' that, although it is indeed possible to perfect themselves by means of this substance, this can proceed only if the second and third being-foods are intentionally absorbed and consciously digested in one's presence, which is possible only for one who has already accustomed all the parts of his presence to fulfill consciously both 'sacred being partkdolg duties,' that is, 'conscious labor' and 'intentional suffering.'

This second being-food, in the Taoism, is connected with the macrocosmic outer alchemical agent. So, the terrestrial elements joined with the celestial ones result in a new more refined and subtle compound. Consequently, it should be stored and protected. If this union does not exist, the person is exposed to the Wheel of Fortune: to the ups and downs, or, according to modern ufology explanations, to the forcible extractions of their emotions. That is, the emerging reactivity in the terrestrial vicissitudes causes an energetic distortion in the humanity asleep due to their lack of emotional homeostasis that nourishes archontic forces: those hidden paws that design and trigger these swingings through the Hyperdimensional Matrix Control System (HMCS). The fluctuation and instability in the daily life, currently known as hyperdimensional manipulation, can swing from a steady regimen to an unexpected change in the Loosh harvest. It is produced by cataclysms or catastrophic events, mostly caused, although the natural apocalyptic events do their part.

The secret to exonerate from the Wheel of the Law or Control System is to initiate the first chemical union through the circulation of the vital principle that is taken from the Generative Force (the Taoists Jing or the Sufists subtle hydrogen: Si H₁₂) in the middle of the microcosmic orbit —called solve— in order to meet the second element (Taoist Qi/Ch'i or Hindu Prana) in the other half of the orbit —called coagula. So that the new component: the microcosmic inner alchemical agent, could be accumulated in the Cinnabar field.

Also known as the First Regime of the Mercury of the Sages, this process was a well-kept secret in the Monastic and Hermetic orders; thus, in the Alchemy of the Middle Ages it was related with the hidden phrases “verbum dimissum” or “custodiat arcanum,” since it was orally disclosed from teacher to student in what was known as an uninterrupted Catena. Our highly esteemed Fulcanelli´s concise words in his work Dwellings of the Philosophers fully reassert: “And the differentiation of these two mercuries, one the agent of renewal, the other of procreation, constitutes the most difficult study that the science has reserved for the neophyte.” The rudder of our detailed research has guided us in this way, through which we had found the existence of two schools of original thoughts in the internal alchemy. These clarify the esoteric methods that contribute in the solve et coagula process. Even though we well understand that there will be a third school, the method in the circulation of Qi should coincide.

This regime, also described as the microcosmic orbit or little celestial revolution, begins the circulation in the lower abdominal region by the internal work of "the sacral pump" to extract the orgone from the Humid Radical in a levorotatory movement, contrary to the dextrorotatory one predetermined by the biology of the organism. It should be understood that the resulting channels, supplies and compounds are not visible, being of non-baryonic and ethereal density matter; and, in the specific case of Qi/Prana, of an even more subtle nature. However, as the regimen moves forward, the novice craftsman could have sufficient evidence of the circulation through an increase of body temperature during the process.

According to the alchemical treatises on Infans Solaris (in which we found funny similarities with the teaching of Daoism and Buddhism) during the final stages, the opening of the insight makes it possible to clearly see the etheric vessels and channels, together with the inorganic entities that live in the following density. The missing young alchemist Nicholas Collette in his book The Universal Medicine warns us about this:

This shock comes from the pituitary gland (center of the nervous system) becoming overcharged. The reason your visions become ever clearer as you drift deeper down into your meditation is because you are charging yourself up with the astral energy the elixir has stored in your system. It waits there to be activated and put to use through the skill of the operator. It will not perform on its own, but must be guided by the mind, and that is why one man may consume such an elixir and gain nothing, while the other will have his mind opened to a world beyond this one; the world of the Spirit.

And if that man be not sufficiently prepared, he will be unable to endure the horror of what his new eyes will behold. Because while there are so many beautiful celestial beings that live between our world and that of the bodyless spirits, there are even more that are hideous daemons that become ever stronger by the fear they insight in man, and will persist to feed on that energy if you do not know how to regain control of your senses and pull back your fear, to replace it only with bravery and faith in God. In that moment your entire aura will be lit up with extremely bright white light which only you can perceive, and those hideous entities will be burned to death by the light of God. Because though they appear to be spirits, they are in fact alive, but clothed with a body far less dense and more subtle than our own physical frame. And this terrifying fact is why the Stone is called the Stone of the Wise and the Philosopher's Stone. You must have the mind to endure the trials of Nature and all her inhabitants.

The Taoist school of thought holds that in the discipline: Chi-Kung (Qi Gong), the orgone should move through the back during the ascending stage or positive fire (microcosmic orbit, Yang orientation). So, once the orgone goes through the Governing Vessel (GV) or Yang channel, it reaches the brain and starts its descending stage or negative fire (Yin orientation), moving from the Conception Vessel or Yin channel to the actual lower Dantian. In the essential book Taoist Yoga: Alchemy and Immortality from the adept Lu K'uan Yü, we read:

When the generative and vital forces start vibrating (in the lower tan t’ien cavity under the navel) you should breathe in—this is to close (ho) the respiratory mechanism (so that the air goes down to exert pressure on the lower abdomen); and at the same time by rolling your eyes up you should follow the ascent of generative force and vitality from the bottom to the top of the head [...]

When you breath out, you should open (p'i) the respiratory mechanism so that the air goes out of the body (to relax pressure on the lower abdomen); at the same time your eyes should follow the descent of generative force and vitality from the top to the bottom [...]

All this is generally called the ascent of positive and descent of negative fire; while inhalation, shutting [the sacral pump], ascent and opening [the sacral pump], exhalation, descent are the phases of the alchemical process.

The microcosmic orbit and the Governing Vessel and the Conception Vessel, in which the Jing and Qi/Prana sublimation process (the conscious harnelmiatznel): A, G, D, J are the four cardinal points in the orbit; while A→ B, A→ C, A→ E, A→ F are the four phases of the ascending stage of the positive fire (Yang) to the Control Channel. G→ H, G→ I, G→ K, G→ L are the four phases of the descending stage of the negative fire (Yin) to the Function Channel, located in M. The central O is the philosophical furnace. ⁽³⁾

The essential generative power (Jing) and fresh air (Qi/Prana) are the two components that take part in the First Regime of Mercury. They are respectively guided and controlled by the sacral pump exercise (also known as blacksmith’s bellows) that takes place in the center of the body’s Yin and Yang (Perineum or Huiyin); and by the circular movement of the eyes oriented to the four cardinal points.

The regular and synchronized movement that takes place both in the ascending stage solve or positive fire, and later, in the descending stage coagula or negative fire is coordinated with two psychic centres: the House of the Earthly Realm located in the navel area (the Lower Dantian) and the House of the Spirit Realm located in the head (the Upper Dantian) together with the House of the Human Realm located in the centre of the chest area (the Middle Dantian). Consequently, a Small Heavenly Circulation is completed and the alchemic union is stored in the cinnabar field or actual Lower Dantian. The Taoist Zhao Bichen adds information on the spin of the Wheel of the Law in his work Treatise on Alchemy and Taoist Physiology:

Just as our blacksmith’s bellows is; i.e., the truth breath respiration. The closing and opening are done by the union of the external and the internal breathing (through the coccyx). The closing is provoked by the inhalation, generating the truth breath (the essence). Then, it circulates progressively through Zi, Mao, Wu and Yu. This means “to spin the Wheel of the Law”, which is made of the function and control channels. The opening takes place in the exhalation together with a circular movement of the eyes; when you start to exhale, the eyes go from left to right, beginning from the bottom (from Zi to Mao; then, from Wu to Yu). The Wheel of the Law puts Yang in motion. These are the Revolutions of the Wheel of the Law in the opening and closing. There is opening and closing of the blacksmith’s bellows in harmony with the external breathing; this is the reason why we refer to four both internal and external inspiration-expiration cycles.

Buddhist teachings have a subtle difference with Daoist ones; Buddhist embryonic breathing uses the sacral pump in the opposite way Taoism does. Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming clarifies this matter in his work Embryonic Breathing:

“Normal Abdominal Breathing" (Zhen Fu Hu Xi) is also commonly known as "Buddhist Breathing" (Fo Jia Hu Xi). After you have completed the above training, you then learn how to control your abdominal muscles and coordinate them with the breathing. When you inhale, it expands, and when you exhale, it withdraws. You should practice until the entire process becomes smooth and the entire body remains relaxed. Naturally: your mind must first concentrate on your abdomen at the beginning in order to control the abdominal muscles. After practicing for some time, you will end the entire breathing process becoming natural and smooth. This means that you are now ready to build up Qi at the Lower Dan Tian (Xia Dan Tian).

Once you have reached this level, you should then coordinate your breathing with the movements of your Huiyin (Perineum and anus). When you inhale, relax the Huiyin and anus, and when you exhale hold them up. Remember, you are gently holding up the Huiyin and anus, not tightening them. When you hold them up, they can still remain relaxed. If you tighten them up, you will impede the Qi circulation. When you tense them, you also cause tension in the abdomen and stomach, which can generate other problems. At the beginning, naturally you will need to use your mind to control the muscles of the abdomen. However, with practice, you will realize that your mind does not have to be there to make it happen. That means you are regulating it without regulating.

Pingala (Sun and ascendant)
Ida (Moon and descendant),
Sushumna is the central bellied flask

For its part, the Hindu philosophy in essence fulfils the initial requirements of the enlightenment process. However, this philosophy seems to differ in the path that takes the orgone; initially, it will go through the channel or the warm Pingala nadi, associated with solar energy or masculine phase (solve); and, then it will use the cool Ida nadi, associated with lunar energy or female phase (coagula). The analogy between the channels and the schools will connect the Hindu Pingala with the Tu Mo or Governing Vessel, the Ida with the Jen Mo or Conception Vessel, and, finally, the Sushumna nadi with the thrust channel (Chung Mo).

In anatomical terms, Taoism and Buddhism suggest the projection of the channels on the sagittal plane from the back to the craniocaudal axis, and then from the forehead to the abdomen. On the other hand, Hinduism directs those channels onto the extension of the coronal plane. Although it may seem contradictory, if these vessels and channels are only perceived through the development of an internal vision and they are analyzed from a tetra-dimensional view (available through the Fourth Density), an arbitrary origin of coordinates will be considered when trying to project them in the three traditional dimensions.

Curiously, within the numerous Hindu diagrams the two lateral channels do not have a linear distribution but an intertwined one (in three points that Fulcanelli associates with the dreadful Calvary nails mentioned in the metaphor of the Stations of the Cross of our beloved Redeemer when they interweave with the channel Sushuma; these points are called granthis or psychic knots) both ending in the cranium, precisely in the space between the eyebrows. Unlike Buddhist and Daoist treatises, the internal breathing triggered by the “sacral pump” exercise (which Hindu equivalent is the Mula Bhanda) is performed together with two muscle contractions: the Jalandhara Bandha (throat region) and the Udiyana Bandha (abdominal region). Regarding the former muscle contraction, Olivia Cattedra and Maité Fernández de Bobadilla refer to it in their work El Hatha Yoga en el Yoga (Chapter VI, Teoría y práctica del Hatha Yoga):

Mula Bandha is concerned with the perineal contraction (pelvic floor) together with the contraction of the gluteal muscles and the abdomen. In this case, Mula Bandha is mainly used in relation to abhyantara kumbhaka (the mindful holding of the breath after inhalation). Discrete use of this bandha not only generates movement of pranic energy in specific areas of the body (sacropelvic and abdominal), but it is also a very useful technique that favours the lumbosacral spine position, consequently extending the dorsal region and opening the thorax.

We can highlight two important aspects from Daoist teachings. On the one hand, that hypersalivation seems to be related to the Jalandhara Bandha due to the position of the tongue (which is in contact with the soft palate so the two main vessels, control and function, are joined). On the other, the mindful holding of the breath after inhalation that takes place in the perineal contraction triggers Harnelmiatznel, i.e., the sublimation process itself. Whereas the microcosmic orbit has two washing and ablution points (the cardinal points Mao and Yu while the inhalation and exhalation take place respectively), the abhyantara kumbhaka as a Pranayama technique focuses on the peak of the breathing cycle.
