Welcome to
PRIMORDIAL ALCHEMIST®️ System
PRIMORDIAL ALCHEMIST System has become a leading spiritual development school teaching tens of thousands of students from every walk of life to re-discover their true hidden potential not experienced in other systems.
The “water path” – the celestial way of Daoism – has lead the field in helping others reach their goals of spiritual realization and has changed the world in passing on once hidden knowledge to the masses in an old traditional manner of the master to student transmission of once hidden truths, and were only practiced in remote temples of the east.
All people from all walks of life have had direct mind experiences through the water path of Daoism, and their lives have been changed in so many ways that are too many to describe.
We 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 to this authentic path. Learn More

The KUNLUN® System reveals the hidden root, giving one the key to awakening within oneself.
The KUNLUN® System reveals the hidden root, giving one the key to awakening within oneself. Through meditative and breathing techniques, the KUNLUN® System facilitates the complete opening of the energy body, including the chakras, energy meridians, and three specific energy storage areas called dantiens.
The system is named after the Kunlun Mountains, home of the immortals, where ancient masters taught the great alchemical secrets to their students, resulting in the illumination of the body, mind, and spirit into the living body of light.
Max Christensen, also known by various spiritual titles such as Drubthub Ugyen, Mugen Roshi, Lama Ngakpha Dorje (Tibetan), Ching Fung Dao Shr (Chinese Daoist), and Sifu Max, is the founder of The KUNLUN System. His life’s mission is to study, understand, and share a wealth of traditional spiritual and esoteric practices from around the world.
A lineage holder in several ancient traditions, Ugyen carries the rare oral transmissions of Maoshan, Mongol shamanic breath practices, Tibetan esoteric teachings, and the KUNLUN System. His guidance emphasizes safety, authenticity, and awakening through internal alchemy rather than external force.
“Your human body is a miracle of the universe with the great mysteries housed within it. You are the universe. You are the essence of living light, slowed down into the physical manifestation of frozen light. When we do our practices, we are speeding ourselves back up into the sacred vibration of truth, even beyond the speed of light, and in the process we remember who and what we truly are and what we came here to do.”
