In the early 1960's Bong Han Kim discovered a biological system that lined up exactly with the meridians and acupuncture points of the human body. Shortly afterwards Kim and much of his published research disappeared Prior to that, his research indicated, this system had energy carrying capacities, far beyond any other of the human circulatory systems. The next 50 years saw an active suppression of this research. But, the Bonghan system is now being resurrected as the "Primo Vascular System" by some pretty big names in biology, chemistry and cancer research. It seems that this new research is corroborating much of Bong Han Kim's earlier research. I am interested in how many Dao Bums know of this and what their understanding is of its' spiritual/meditative/health value?

It would seem to validate some people's beliefs of moving chi through the meridians by visualization and intent. For the first time in history there is scientific corroboration of many of the neikung/neidan stories of healing and martial power.

This new research may be the starting point to scientific integration of matter and spirit as well as, also connecting the Western and Eastern views of the human body.

It may possibly be the main carrier system for Ki. So, most systems would be using it in one way or another. It seems that science may be giving us more of a buy-in to certain energy beliefs.

The great Emperor sent all his wise men all over the world. His instructions to them were "find me the most effective meditation in the world and then distill it down to one word". A lifetime later they brought him one word: Relax.

Julia, You are using stepping stones. All entities, such as you or I, do that. Eventually, given enough time, we will all have wordless passwords and transmissions etched inside of us. We will not need it from anyone or anything else. Just remember this: If you feel the least uncomfortable, at or on any of these stepping stones, (no matter how valid you may have felt that stone is or was) this site has a huge supply of benevolent resources willing to help.

A big part of becoming more sensitive to Tao is leaving narratives and symbols behind.

Balancing sexual energy techniques with self-health and relaxation is difficult. Edginess and drive. Peace and health. The intuitive balance that only you can decide. Hell of a trip. Good luck.

Banana357, If you are not keeping a detailed journal, start one right away. Make it more detailed as you go on. Do not try to focus on too many things. Deconstruct down to very few and get the balance of them. Then add single items cautiously. Healing yourself is where true power lies. My thoughts are with you. -
Tears are my friends. Here is my question:

All of the answers are already there. The trick is asking the right question in the correct way at the right time.

This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not be false to any man. Shakespeare via Polonius Of course we are talking about people who have not already twisted into devils.

Great Non-Self promoting Humble Teachers-any discipline: A Memorial
moment posted a topic in Systems and Teachers of
I had the privilege of meeting a great teacher in 1974 that was largely unknown. His name was Dave Harris out of Seattle, Washington. I was very young. Because of extensive boxing, wrestling, submission wrestling, Aikido, Karate (starting when I was 11 years old) I found many of the so called blackbelts in town to be mediocre. This made me a little full of myself. Then I met Dave Harris. His art was Tai Chi but, he liked to call it chop suey. My first sparring session at his home on 67th st. was a real eye opener as to what a true combat Tai Chi fighter at a very high level can do. I was totally helpless with this guy. Yet, he did it with amazing control, gentleness, kindness and openness. His wife, Gerry, came home during this and told us not to mess the place up. I told her not to worry, Dave had everything under control. He charged very little, he was more interested in your character and dedication. He did not self promote. He had studied under some of the great masters: Tchoung, Tohei, Raymond Chung, Pang, Woodcock, and Zhang Jie. Dave was very humble. All he wanted to do was teach anyone who was truly interested. (He also was a highly dedicated art teacher at North Seattle C.C.). Jesse Glover (of Bruce Lee fame) met Dave Harris when Jesse Glover was well known for his unique style of Sticking Hands. Afterwards, Jesse called Sifu Harris The Greatest Master no one has heard of. That is kind of the way Dave wanted it. The point I am getting to is: With all of these big name advertised masters all around, I would like to read about the tremendous teachers that have influenced your lives (in any discipline, martial or non-martial) and yet are largely unknown. A memorial of sorts. I am waxing nostalgic, please humor me:) -
