I didn't listen to the last part of the interview, so I missed that bit. I'll certainly revisit it later, because I'd like to hear his view on them from his Taoist perspective.

It will be a while before I work my way through the book, so, in the interim, I'm posting this link* to an interview with Professor Guolong's translator's interview on the Science and Nonduality blog (#83), which covers it well, I feel. The translator also makes some extremely salient points about the futility of arguing with the ignorant, from a Taoist perspective, which I consider to be highly relevant to the subject of Taoist Inner Alchemy. * https://scienceandnonduality.com/audio/83-taoist-inner-alchemy/

Thanks Brother! 🙏🏻 Picked up a copy already and started reading it last night. 😊 So far, so good. 👍🏻❤️ Thanks again, @Taoist Texts & @Chang dao ling. 🙏🏻 This thread's is quite a nice example of how this forum could & should operate (e.g. mutual co-operation). 😊
-
Am liking this approach a lot ATM. 🙏🏻 Just googled: and located this hit: Would you recommend watching it?
-
-
Thank you. 🙏🏻

Namaste TT. 🙏🏻 On a serious note, I'm actually extremely interested in comparing notes with you. Would you mind starting a new topic (something along the lines of Neidan for Dummies perhaps) in the Teachers & Systems section so that we can, hopefully, dispelled some of that confusion? 🙏🏻
-
TFFT. 🙏🏻❤️😊

Unfortunately, such videos don't exist. However, I can assure you that William has no knee issues whatsoever and neither do I (although I only started practicing Lam-style Chi Kung in the mid-90s,.so perhaps I'll pay a price for ignoring your advice eventually 🤣).
-
No, but I'm sure that your warning will ring all the right bells anyway... 😊 Incidentally, here's a video of one of Sifu Lam's students practicing Lam-style Tai Chi just in case you'd like to take it upon yourself critique that, as well. 😊
-
So, if I understood you correctly, this has nothing to do with the brief Chi Kung warm-up exercises, taught by Sifu Lam but instead it relates to the improper practice of Tai Chi?
-
My personal experience of neidan is that it's a waste of time and energy and that it leads to considerable damage in most, if not all cases. Hope that helps?
-
So you consider that Lam Kam Chuen is "crap" and a "clown", do you?
-
Thanks. 🙏🏻 What's your source?

I want to learn Loving-Kindness Meditation(metta)
Giles replied to Lukks's topic in General Discussion
One of the benefits of this practice, according to Sharon Salzberg, is that it would easy to evaluate your progress because the Buddha apparently listed the "siddhis" that you'd develop as side-effects if you're practicing it correctly. -
It is indeed tragic.

❤️😊

And, entirely unexpectedly, TT hooks him again.
-
Yes, you made a spelling mistake.
-
At this point, even that wouldn't surprise me.
-
Not at all. I'd have been quite surprised if you hadn't joined this particular debate debacle.
-
-
Yes. Wise council, apparently. On the other hand, perhaps themselves?
