SonOfTheGods replied to SonOfTheGods's topic in General Discussion
The Sequel to: LoneMan Pai™- Full Lotus - Instruction VIDEO lonemanpai.com/thread/1094/loneman-full-lotus-instruction-video The muscle gets pumped- tightens with lactic acid- blood flow Then stretching it during that time will cause it to be super stretched by the time the muscle returns to normal Applies to tendons and ligaments too Use the first video techniques with the pillows Slowly start pushing down on each knee to add resistance Then stretch immediately afterwards Then start using your legs for kicking- pushing the Qi down towards the feet in spiral movements This is why WeiGong /Waidan is pertinent to NeiGong / NeiDan From stretching, to martial arts, to full lotus, to internal alchemy - one interconnecting routine Read more: http://lonemanpai.com/thread/1218/loneman-pai-stretching-butterflies-video?page=1#ixzz3vvNQSLL8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuRpNAYuuKs -

QUIZ: Can You Read 500 Words Per Minute? Test Drive Speed Reading App Spritz
SonOfTheGods posted a topic in The Rabbit Hole
QUIZ: Can You Read 500 Words Per Minute? Test Drive Speed Reading App Spritz Reading is a huge waste of time. Wait! Not because it’s not intellectually fulfilling and creatively stimulating and your gateway to different worlds, but because of how we’re doing it. Did you know that most of the time (like, 80%) you spend reading is just your eyes moving?? We told you, major time waster. That’s what new technology Spritz is trying to change by serving up speed reading realness that can get your words per minute up to 1,000. Psh, you’ll be able to read 50 Shades of Grey on your morning commute. Again. You’re used to moving your eyes from word to word as you read, but when doing that, your eye is searching for a point in each word, the Optimal Recognition Point. You find the ORP, your brain tinkers to figure out the meaning and context for each and then it’s on to the next. That’s a lot of work. Skip reading and start spritzing, which takes the words on each page and flashes them one at a time with the ORP located in one spot where you’re already looking. Now there’s no need for your eyes to roam the page. Reading one word at a time also makes page-turning easier on a smaller device like a smartwatch or a smartphone — perfect because Spritz will work with apps on a couple devices we’re pretty excited about, the Samsung Galaxy S5 and Samsung Gear 2. Those devices aren’t out until April, but you can test your speed reading skills now with the quiz below! Try it out at 250 wpm: Total breeze, you got this! Now rev your reading engines up to 350 wpm: Wipe the sweat off your brow and try 500 wpm: Phew. Spritz goes up to twice as fast as this last one, but you’ll get there. Using technology like Spritz would strip you of excuses for why you didn’t read the book before your next book club (sorry!). Plus, any presentations or articles on your work reading list would be a cinch to cram in. Let’s hope apps using Spritz team up with publications to deliver you your morning news as quickly as possible. Are SparkNotes still a thing with the kids these days? If so, they can cancel their e-subscription to them now with Spritz in the picture. http://www.brit.co/speed-reading-app-spritz/ -
What Zhongyongdaoist said. And here's this: Stigmata, burn marks, blisters etc on palms are the result of Hyperemia (pooling) at the LaoGong from the Pericardium Meridian acupuncture points

Americans who claim to be allergic to electromagnetic signals settle ..where WiFi is banned
SonOfTheGods posted a topic in The Rabbit Hole
'I used to be sick all the time': Dozens of Americans who claim to be allergic to electromagnetic signals settle in small West Virginia town where WiFi is banned Green Bank, West Virginia is situated in the middle of the National Radio Quiet Zone All electromagnetic signals are banned within the zone including WiFi and cellphones The zone was set up to protect the world's largest radio telescopes from electronic interference Americans from across the country have resettled in Green Bank to get away from the signals, which they find physically damaging More than 30 people have relocated to Green Bank as of 2013 Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2576848/I-used-sick-time-Dozens-Americans-claim-allergic-electromagnetic-signals-settle-small-West-Virginia-town-WiFi-banned.html#ixzz2vZs55ZSK -
Yin Through Synthetic Material - Yes or No? Simple experiment: Get a magnet- cover it with a sheet of plastic (plastic in proportion to the magnet gauge) Now see if it can still attract a piece of iron = Yes, it can. Synthetics like Neoprene / Polychloroprene insulates against Electricity Not with Magnetism though. Yin appears as Magnetism Yang appears as Electric Does synthetic material impede gravity (Yin) ? If you wear a raincoat- will you float away? Is there any material that can block a magnetic force? Magnetic fields cannot be blocked. There is no such thing as a magnetic insulator. A major reason for this has to do with one of Maxwell's Equations: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations Then there is this: Conclusion- you CAN cultivate on a synthetic carpet and still make good gains because Yin is NOT blocked.

Yin Through Synthetic Material - Yes or No?
SonOfTheGods replied to SonOfTheGods's topic in General Discussion
There's different approaches to this: A BaZi chart will show you if, for instance, you have 'more fire'. Another approach- the MCO is running reverse, so more cool, magnetic Think of all the students learning/practicing TaiChi in a studio Surely they are able to balance Yin and Yang in an insulated, artificial structure Glenn Morris- talking on Kundalini, you will be running hot if your Jing is depleted Everyone is unique, so no clear cut answers for this -

Yin Through Synthetic Material - Yes or No?
SonOfTheGods replied to SonOfTheGods's topic in General Discussion
From the LoneMan Pai ™ WinRAR #4 Folder: Excerpts: The Earth has differing potentials of Yin Qi Some areas under the soil: Rich black fertile soil versus sand, clay &/or dead soil. Fossil - Oil Deposits as well as Mineral, Quartz, Gold, Iron Ore, Magnetic Lodestone, etc etc etc Organic life-forms Water running / negative ions / streams Under the Earth- like Sedimentary layers- the Yin fluctuates. Deep down- the Earth's core runs like an engine. Again as I said prior- under my feet and under your feet is very differing amount of Yin Qi- the variables are forever changing with your every step. There are also water pipes, electric cable, fiber optics, phone/landlines, gas pipes etc take all into consideration- Above You: analog waves, WiFi, microwave, gamma, ultra-violet, cell phone, etc through out the sky/rays/network- like a web take all this into account Above you Below you Yin Field - What, Why & How: Yin is always with Yang The body doesn't compartmentalize Yin only Yang/sky mixed with yin Yin/ground mixed with some yang If there's Yang around, it has Yin chasing it If you have a magnet- it has positive & negative poles It can't be a magnet and have only 2 positive poles or 2 negative only poles it wouldn't be a magnet- unless it is a "magnetic monopole" A magnetic monopole is a hypothetical elementary particle in particle physics that is an isolated magnet with only one magnetic pole (a north pole without a south pole or vice-versa). It is impossible to make magnetic monopoles from a bar magnet. If a bar magnet is cut in half, it is not the case that one half has the north pole and the other half has the south pole. Instead, each piece has its own north and south poles. A magnetic monopole cannot be created from normal matter such as atoms and electrons, but would instead be a new elementary particle. Dichotomies of Yin 2 opposing schools of thought: 1- when you practice you must be outside, perineum touching ground no artificial, inorganic insulation in between you may use an indoor grounding mat/wire this was discussed previously on another thread 2- the other school of thought is to insulate one self from leaking dispersing Qi, involuntarily Both schools of thoughts have positive and negative traits -conflicting ? Laogong points on bottom of feet- and heel meridians. Going up and down off the ground creates a magnetic yin pulse especially if your toes are coming into contact with the ground first. (Think Kunlun). Perineum moving up and down. Flexing of pelvis/coccyx/sacral/mingmen. The laogong points in your hands, plus the wrist daling points being turned per the rope jumping activate the niwan point in your head. Then it reverses- like Tai Chi: Bai Hui - Niwan - Daling - LDT - Bubbling Springs Deep quick breathing from jumping rope is activating the fire yang breathe, as your mind focuses on the event. If you want, take it one step further: When you jump rope- center your focus on your lower tan tien. Then inhale as you jump off the ground- focus the energy upwards out to the niwan and crown area- all the way into the sky. As you about to land, compress your perineum, then exhale as your feet touch the ground, penetrating your consciousness deep down into the Earth. Crown/Baihui is yang Niwan is magnetic, and grounded to Earth Energy connects ---> qihai // dantian etc In Kunlun, the energy coming down feels cool and magnetic- even though it would appear to new comers, that the energy should seem to be yang and warm, as it ''Feels'' as though it is coming down from "the sky" The Lower Tan Tien Is "Similar" To A SuperNova: Can't "Fill" a Black Hole It can be "fed" though. The lower Tan Tien, as a Vacuum, sucking and pulling in through the crown, and 4 limbs/pore breathe, etc. As it grows and condenses/collapses upon itself- it produces/circulates energy MCO, etc When the Qi hai is full, like a large sphere, it makes contact with back & front & huiyin on the bottom. It begins the upward circulation from the Wei Lu/tail bone. Yin- Example/Briefly: Much inter-action/re-action of running water/ streams etc that produce negative ionization this is constantly evaporating-=- filling the air/clouds/plants, etc, -breathing/exhaling trading off with organisms Yin does not just stay "stuck" in the ground Yin is in "outer space" - magnetic ionosphere Magnetic flux "ropes" - tethering from the Sun Ionosphere is a region of the upper atmosphere, includes the Thermo-sphere and parts of the Meso-sphere and Exo-sphere. It is distinguished because it is Ionized by solar radiation. It also plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere.

Yin Through Synthetic Material - Yes or No?

Try this experiment: 1 teaspoon of Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) in 12 ounces of water, taken 30 minutes before you cultivate. It makes the body more Alkaline (which is Yin) as opposed to Acidic (which is Yang) You might feel a boost at the LDT -

Yin Through Synthetic Material - Yes or No?
SonOfTheGods replied to SonOfTheGods's topic in General Discussion
Only if you believe John Chang (rather, those who wrote the books) is an authority. I say, try it yourself If there is Yang, then there is Yin A grounding wire does not actually ground you anyway- it would be a rather tedious process to actually procure a proper ground. That being said, a simple grounding contraption does help with the static build up, which can be a nuisance Please- no more John Chang quotes, otherwise we wind up doing that "thing that you do" -

Drawing parallels is how the alchemists do it. Identify, and fit into categories. Breaking things down, and labeling them. Cold = is this Yin? Heat = is this Yang? Observation, experience, controlled experiments If this meridian has a needle in it- the energy routes this way... assumption? The Chi flowing up Governor's meridian - is Yang? How do we know for certain, then? I assumed this was common knowledge around here -
