Welcome to Primordial Alchemist
Primordial Alchemist 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 Taoism – 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 Taoism, 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
Snake Kung Fu
Snake Kung Fu
Snake style kung fu is a soft, internal martial arts form stressing qi projection into acupuncture points and for making the qi flow smoothly through the body.
Slow tai chi like movements are stressed in order to rid oneself of stress and tensions deep within your body, mind and spirit.
The snake system looks simple in movement but requires one-pointed focus to master the intricacies of this unique internal system.
Breath control, focusing of the mind and relaxation is the key to understanding this art with a main focus on long life and vitality, not martial arts.
All ages of people may practice this art and its meditations and breath control.
The snake system is rarely seen in the western world. If your interest is alchemy, the snake will reveal its hidden treasures to you.

Kidney Regeneration
In all spiritual traditions, any practitioner who does high-level energy cultivation knows the kidneys’ great importance.
Kidney energy is directly correlated to the Water Element. They are the key to Life Force Essence and are the basis for health, preservation, and regeneration. Our kidneys can weaken with age, chronic stress, fear, excessive emotion, and isolation. Keeping our kidneys strong and balanced is a vital element in spiritual cultivation as well as a long and healthy life.
In our particular tradition, based on the season, there are specific methods to keep the kidneys at full strength, especially. If one is doing a long sitting retreat, that can put stress on this vital organ.
In this class, we will discuss the do’s and don’ts of specific methods to ensure our kidneys are in excellent condition, which in turn fuels the body, brain, and nervous system to aid us towards our spiritual goal. The methods to be explained will go over age, season, massage, and various meditative ways to protect and revitalize our power supply within our body.
Let us begin to explore the path of self-regeneration through traditional methods that will change both the internal and external world on the path inwards toward the Tao, the great mystery.
Date: Saturday April 1st
Time: 5pm-8pm PT

Red Phoenix 2 & 3 Online
A sacred practice once hidden in the Temples of the Far East, Red Phoenix was passed down from Temple Master to only one student once every 100 years…
Red Phoenix Level 1 activates a concentrated form of magnetic energy in the brain through cultivation and opening the flow of specific channels.
In Level 2, the Red Phoenix practice takes the concentrated magnetic energy of Level 1 and uses this energy to activate the neural cells found within the lower dantian, your second brain.
After the body saturates each cell with this magnetic field, Red Phoenix Level 3 method expands the concentrated field into the Wei Chi. The cultivation of this highly concentrated magnetic energy will then be used to further activate dormant body and mind potentials.
Once mastering RP Method 1-3, the practitioner would advance to master the last few levels to attain the Red Phoenix body manifestation.
Date: May 20th, 2023
Time: 5pm- 8pm PT
Location: Zoom
Pre-Requisite: One must have actively practiced Red Phoenix Level 1 for a minimum of 6 months to attend this online event. Higher Levels of this practice will have no manifestation without regular practice of Level 1 and the transmission from a GDB Master.
*This event is exclusively available to Patrons of Primordial Alchemist.
KUNLUN Level 1 – Sedona, AZ
The Celestial Water Path to Enlightenment…
KUNLUN Level 1 Seminar Sedona, AZ!
Since times going back to antiquity, True Alchemical Teachings that gave authentic awakening were only reserved for the very few individuals who were fortunate enough to find and learn under such knowledgeable masters, attaining the highest spiritual awakening of the Living body of Light.
In this late 20th century, such rare teachings are now made public to those individuals walking the path of true knowing. The “KUNLUN System” is for those who are seeking the path of no-more learning. This ancient method is from the sacred Kunlun Mountains where the temple of the Great Taoist Immortals originated and the place where Fu Xi the Dragon Immortal of the east first taught these ancient skills.
Mugen Roshi (Max) and his wife Diana Dao Shi teach this tradition in a light-hearted and simple way leading the practitioner to the quick awakening of their true dormant potential, attaining results in their alchemical practices. The simple methods of KUNLUN Level 1 will help you begin to awaken yourself naturally, without force and without using your seeking mind, but through the downward or water path system of self-surrender. This is the essence of Taoist Internal Alchemy.
The KUNLUN System is a system of practices offered for those seeking a spiritual path of internal alchemy leading to the truth within.

Year of the Rabbit
Hello and greetings to all. It is the Year of the Water Rabbit. In this year we who cultivate the Tao, the great and ultimate mystery, should motivate ourselves to fully immerse our body, mind and spirit towards our own ultimate goal of self awakening and self enlightenment.
Our mind should flow effortlessly with the true heart, the essence of bliss hidden within the jewel within our middle dantien.
Embrace the effortless-effort mindset without forcing something to happen or grasp for something to attain because all things are open within you by surrendering to the great mystery and the self-discovery of the great treasure waiting to ignite within yourself.
Allow your mind to become free of the bondage of others thoughts and belief systems and truly see the uniqueness of your own heart mind, the immortal self sleeping under the common mind of polarity.
Your qi should flow with softness held within firmness just like the water element. This in turn allows the blood to flow with equal attributes feeding the organs with fresh, enlivened, qi rich blood.
If we follow the natural laws of Tao in this matter, our body and mind responds with positive strength, virtue and happiness regardless of the outer worlds current situations.
We hope you have a blissful new year and may your cultivation bring all those things you truly with for.

“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.”
