I wanted to start SFQ but just came to know that it also has MCO meditation.But i read several posts about SFQ here and no one has experienced adverse effects from it.Can someone only practice the standing meditation of moving yin yang in SFQ and skip the MCO?

I only do it mentally because i dont know any other method,How do you personally do it? And any book suggestions? Thanks

yes I am right handed.

Where is the sushumna channel? is it the Governing vessel in the spine or the zong mai(Taiji pole)? I am really confused because the yogis call the sushumna the central channel and say that it lies inside the spine while the taoists call the same channel inside the spine Governing vessel and they call the central channel the ZongMai which runs in the middle of the body and not the spine.And in which channel the kundalini travels when aroused, in the governing vessel or the zong mai? Thanks

Please tell me some of the best Neigong teachers on the planet?Which one is the best among Gary Clyman,Jerry Alan Johnson,Michael Winn and Mantak Chia? Also kindly mention some good Neigong Books,Dvds and courses. Peace

So that means the sushumna or penetrating channel lies outside the spinal column in the center,That confuses me because i have read in so many yoga books that the sushumna lies inside the spinal column,They say that there are 3 threads inside spinal column wrapped around one another and sushumna is the innermost thread.Also the ida pingala concept confuses me.Because conception channel runs on the front of body while the ida channel runs on the left side of body from left testicle to the 3rd eye while the governing channel runs on the back side of the body and the pingala runs on the right side of the body from the 2nd chakra to the 3rd eye.They are not the same thing.

What is the difference Between the two? And which one is more safe,more powerful and has more benefits? Peace

I think the Mind Light Neigung does not work with kundalini.Its main goal is strengthening the Jing in Lower Dantein while Kap works with Kundalini and Focuses on all the 3 danteins.

I am not a traveling Fan,I love distance learning.I mentioned these teachers because they also offer distance learning courses.I justed wanted to know your experiences with these teachers since they are the best western teachers.

hi,Hey guys i need your help.How do you vsualize the middle column in SFQ moving yin yangs exercise?i vsualize it from my right side looking from my right shoulder to the middle column running from head to pelvis.Whenever i visualize it from left side or front side,it dissappers and i become frustrated and anxious.What is wrong with me?Not just SFQ,whenever i do visualization,i visualize from my right side not the middle or left side.Is there some thing wrong with my 3rd eye or right side of body?Thanks

I am good at visualization but the problems is i do not visualize from the middle,I visualize from my right side looking at the middle column in my body.How can i improve my visualization skills so that i can visualize from any angle? Any books/courses suggestions?Thanks

Hi,i just got an attunement of Reiki Tummo level 1.I can feel the energies running through my body.This attunement was much stronger than the traditional reiki attunement level 1 which i got some days ago.Also i am feeling a strong sensation in my heart area.The only thing i am confused about is healing with reiki tummo.They dont use symbols.They say that only intention activates this energy for self healing and healing others.this is difficult for me.How to use intention?Any suggestions from reiki tummo practitioners here? Thanks

Hi,What is the Difference between Chi Power inner circle run by Sifu Al Perhacs and School of Healing energy run by Sifu Rob Jones?I Read that both offer the same exercises.They were together 3 years ago but are now separated.I emailed Sifu Rob and he told me that theres big difference and Al Perhacs is not authentic.He told me that Chi Power is outdated.And they dont work with cooling energy.Any Thoughts?

I read some posts here which say that SFQ is Microcosmic orbit meditation but when i listened to cds i came to know that the master does not talk about conception or governing vessel which are at the front and back side of body.All he say is to imagine an energy channel in the middle of torso.I have watched Dr yang qigong videos in which he says that the thrusting vessel is in the middle of the body.So i assume that SFQ is quite different from microcosmic orbit meditation in which you circulate the energy between conception and governing vessels.In SFQ you circulate energy only in thrusting vessel up and down.Thats is why it is so effective and quite different from other Qigong practices because the thrusting vessel is connected to all 12 Qi channels.What are your thoughts?

How to visualize a transparent energy column in the middle of torso in SFQ? He does not mention whether to visualize it inside the body or outside the body.Also he does not show it in video from the side.Outside the body means to visualize it from the forehead to the lower dan tian.And inside the body means to visualize it from the crown of the head to the pelvic floor.Please explain it.Thanks

This is what i read in SFQ level 1 manual: " Visualize a transparent energy column in the middle of torso shinning with beautiful colors.it runs from the top of the head to bottom of the torso,While moving the hands visualize energy moving up and down the transparent column" so the middle channel is the thrusting vessel.So you are moving energy up and down in thrusting vessel.In microsmic orbit meditation you move the energy in the front and back channels not in the middle one.

You can see his video where he clearly mentions the thrusting vessel between the torso.

Hi, I got attuned to Reiki energy Level 1 and 2 two days ago.After attunement i was having a stiff neck and strain in my shoulders.Later i was having pain in my heart area.At night i woke up at 1.00 am and i was still having pain then suddenly a warm energy sensation started at my neck area and it travelled along my spine down to my pelvic area,It hit the pelvic area and bounced back to the chest region.During this whole 15 sec period i was hearing white noise in my ears.I was so scared that i did not sleep after that.Is this kundalini or chi? I know kundalini travels from base to crown but the feeling was very intense though it was not as intense like the ones i read in kundalini books but it was for me.There was no shaking of the body.After the experience the tension i was feeling in my neck and heart area was gone but my brain is still vibrating.I did the reiki course because i wanted to heal myself.I am suffering from depression and anxiety disorders for the past 8 years and i am taking anti depressants.I am thinking about starting spring forest qigong course to heal myself.What do you suggest? Thanks
