Max & Diana Christensen, by divine intervention, were brought together and, through the direct experiences, they shared developed the systems.

Primordial Alchemist came into being primarily through the meeting of these  two individuals.

They met on the Hawaiian Big Island. Destiny brought them together to teach and expand ancient knowledge not commonly found in the west.

Practices offered  various traditional methods of genuine and authentic awakenings from Tibet, China, Mongolian and Egyptian.

The teaching has not been fully exposed to the western mind and is here for those seeking the truth of the East’s ancient cultures.

Creating the groundwork for traditional teaching, they traveled throughout the United States teaching this ancient knowledge.

Max has been given many spiritual gifts and rare teachings through his past teachers and continues to pass on their family knowledge.

Diana’s discipline to her awakening and dedication to keeping the art pure is the current holder of the next generation of this art.

With internal devotion, they have continued to expand the KUNLUN System without the traditional art becoming deluded as many sacred arts have been commercialized, losing their original intent and forgotten.

Max & Diana Christensen continue to teach this unique art to people from many different countries. Traditions such as Taoism, Tibetan, Mongolian Shamanism.

The teaching reveals itself through direct experience and hands-on training for those individuals feeling drawn to the KUNLUN System.

Their specialty is the Mongolian Darkhad Shaman tradition from inner Mongolia, where the ancient art has remained unchanged for centuries.

Both have trained throughout their lives in many spiritual traditions, specializing in their unique knowledge to pass it on to future generations and have a living legacy that will flourish throughout the modern world.

They continue to passionately teach, promote, and hold the standards of teachings as outlined in those lineage masters of the ancient past, the reason why this art has become so well known and successful to all who devote themselves to this authentic path.

Max Christensen - Founder of The KUNLUN System

Max Christensen, also known by the titles Lama Ngakpha Dorje in Tibetan, Ching Fung Dao Shr in Chinese Taoism, and Sifu Max, has dedicated his life to the pursuit, preservation, and sharing of spiritual and esoteric traditions from around the globe.

His remarkable spiritual journey began at the age of six when he started training under Wudang Master Wu Xiao Deng in Hubei Province, where he was immersed in Wudang Taoism, Bagua, Qigong, and Daoyin practices. These foundational disciplines strengthened Max’s body, mind, and spirit, igniting a lifelong devotion to uncovering deeper spiritual truths.

Driven by a profound thirst for wisdom, Max traveled the world, learning from masters across various cultures and refining his knowledge of esoteric root practices. These teachings culminated in the creation of the KUNLUN System and KUNLUN NEI GUNG, systems that he now shares with spiritual seekers worldwide.
Beyond Taoism, Max’s journey has led him into the depths of Shamanism. He studied the Mongolian Blue Wolf Shamanic tradition, learning the sacred ways of the ancient Shamans. His shamanic training also connected him with the healing traditions of the Apache and Navajo peoples, and he became a member of the Red Willow Society’s medicine path in New Mexico. Furthering his expertise, Max explored the art of healing through Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Lapa’au, training in the traditions of PeleKu and KaneLu.

Max’s spiritual path also ventured into Tibetan Buddhism, where he received the Santig Dorje Phurba empowerment from Ralo Rinpoche of the Nyingma order. Ralo Rinpoche honored Max’s mastery by bestowing upon him the title “Ngakpha Dorje,” a recognition of his profound spiritual powers.

For over 20 years, Max has deepened his studies under the guidance of a master from the Shang-ching Taoist tradition of Southern China. His focus on Taoist alchemical practices, which lead to the attainment of the Gold Dragon body, represents a pinnacle of spiritual transformation.

Max’s teachings, shared with over 30,000 students worldwide, are delivered in small, intimate settings, allowing for deep, personal engagement with these sacred traditions. His work continues to inspire those on the path of spiritual cultivation.

Kan Sasaki - Lineage Holder of The KUNLUN System (Japan)

In 2005, I met Max in a small room of a certain building in Tokyo. I will never forget the moment my eyes met his. His mysterious blue eyes seemed to expand like the universe before me. They seemed to expand like the space in the universe and then twisted. I sensed through him the root of all things and that he was an expression of it. This is the living root of The KUNLUN System that Max told me about. Since that first meeting, time has passed.

I am now living my miraculous life, and within my life there are no serious matters. I live my life by comfortably communicating with nature and the universe. I am traveling the world, teaching the KUNLUN System, which has connected me and Max together. I am continually meeting with people with whom I share this wonderful knowledge.

The path of KUNLUN System that Max teaches has led to incredibly fast changes. There is something powerful and unique that has to do with the fineness of the frequency. What makes this function, this awakening, possible? I should say it is from Max, who is a true master who has taken over these once-secret practices and succeeded at developing them. Only this person we know as Max took this knowledge and developed it correctly so that it can be used in the present day.

Actually, when I had the transmission of the gold dragon body from Max, I met various (normally unseen) masters standing behind Max during that time of transmission. Max always says to me “Kan, it is up to you to wish for whatever you want to do in your life.” Yes, I understood, and I had never been forced by Max to do anything I did not wish to do. Some masters only talk and make themselves sound good; some of them have very strong power. But many of these masters are driven by their own egos to control others. There are so many so-called masters like that.

Max jokes like a little boy, and the truth is that I have never heard of Max ever speaking ill of others. He also allows me to be his brother instead of his disciple. For Max, having power over others has no meaning. Whenever I see him, we tackle each other like children and we laugh. Some people have seen us doing this and said we looked like dogs playing with each other, and then they, too, laughed. I feel infinite energy here; I can’t help feeling the real connection with the Tao. When my brother opens his heart to me, I feel the true master inside him.
