  1. I practice KunLun

    After a year of kunlun and now KAP I find EVERYTHING amusing Dude you will get banned....again rofl Agreed, advertorial marketing just seems to be a requirement of the net these days.... Yes, it a shame to see people "judging the book by the cover" Yes, much love for Trunk, and all of you 'bums
  2. Computers Just Aren't Human !

    Hi this is life Welcome to the 'bums the Tao moves in mysterious ways. I photoshopped my avatar pic to 125 by 125 before I uploaded it. It is a bit of a fiddle. The tech support forum might yield a more helpful or easier solution. Hope you have fun here.
  3. Intro

    Hi taodancing, Welcom to the 'bums. After a year I doube we have much to offer you but always good to have more kunloonies (since your new we use that as a term of affection here) Hope you have fun
  4. http://www.beliefnet.com/Faiths/Taoism/The...-Star-Wars.aspx and of course http://www.amazon.com/Tao-Star-Wars-John-P...r/dp/0893343854 which I actually didn't buy in the bookshop because the cover looked too hokey Idiot!
  5. Buddha speaks!

    "I would not have walked around the corner" *slaps student on head* When a choice appears, which way do you travel?
  6. Hello from Tucson, AZ.

    Hi GMT, Welcome to the 'bums. You will hear a few discussions on using sound for meditation One I remember http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?showto...51&hl=sound have fun
  7. Good Evening :)

    Hi mr R Fairchild Welcome to the 'bums. Not that much embroidery here, but be careful running with those scissors, you could get out of breath Have fun.
  8. Complete Taoist Internal System

    ROFlmao I wonder if there are any "graduates" to ask if it was "good value" You probably have to sign a confidentiality clause
  9. Complete Taoist Internal System

    No I like living in socity, but I would buy this
  10. I practice KunLun

    It's their choice, and if that is the way they chose to present Kunlun, what can we "do" about it. BTW I agree, but I really don't care that much. Although I like watching people debate it all the time
  11. yes, but how do you work out your population size roflmao
  12. how do you use taoism during a conflict?

    hehe Reminds me of the classic gunslinger showdown at midday in the middle of town. I always though it was just a movie trick when the good guy waits for the bad guy to go for his gun, and then outdraws him. But it actually is faster to respond to their action. Weird stuff fighting. I see a divergence of strategies for physical vs mental conflict.
  13. Daniel Ingram

    cool, more links here http://www.thetaobums.com/Mastering-the-Co...ddha-t8295.html There are online and downloadable versions so you don't even have to buy a book and wait for shiping Perhaps we can listen to the podcasts too.
  14. Cheers, I've got enough practices on my plate currently, but I'm sure we will have plenty to "talk" about too. Hopefully we will have some "cross over" with everyones current practices. Oops are we allowed to use "hope" at the moment
  15. "I guess wizard appeals to me the most" because they kick ass! I would love to be a Wizard, a shrine..... not so much
  16. Reconciling life and death

    I don't have anything useful to add myself, but I like these Quotes. I think the 1st one is the verse you are talking about and the last is like what Ian was saying. As for practices Shon's idea sounds good. I've never changed a nappy! And it's been along time since I had to hold a baby. But connect with life by living it. It's hard not to get stuck in the mind when thinking about Death, ego starts to freak out
  17. Help me

    It's not Cairns I don't really like Townsville either. If I had to live in a big city, Bris is probably the "best" option, but I'm a small town person. Also if I had to move to Bris I can't afford to live where I want. So would probably end up traveling 2 hrs to work each day
  18. physical rehab

    Just out of interest are you heavy? At my weight (110kg) my Sifu does not recommend that I hold static stances for long periods of time, or even short periods! (but we are training different systems so YMMV)
  19. I practice KunLun

    No. You forget that the kunlun forum is only for people who have gone to seminars For us book readers there is just the 'bums. Well it has been a few week since we hounded anyone
  20. Help me

    Same reason I'm in Townsville. We want to live in Cairns. Hopefully Sifu will keep teaching until I'm at a level where I can continue on by myself otherwise I'm going to end up in Brisbane too Good luck in the search.... about the only Bums I know in Bris are KoHsuan and you. Could be worth a pm to see if he knows of anything.
