  1. Do you have a blog or a website?

    Does anyone know what happened to this site?
  2. Here is an idea: ask questions about christianity on a christian forum and talk about Daoism on a Daoist forum.
  3. Teaching authentic neigong

    Also ask if you could post his reply here. I would be interested in what he has to say.
  4. The Height of Idiocy

    He seems more than a little high on himself.
  5. Current Events Discussion

    I would like access to the Current Events section in the Rabbit Hole.
  6. How not to lose qigong energy? How do I stop the leak?

    Is there anything more to the exercise than "exercise consisted of imagining white energy forming under my navel when I breathed in, and spreading out when I breathed out."? Or is that it?
  7. Yi Jin Jing/ Tendon-Muscle Strengthening Exercises

    Robert Peng has an online course on Yi Jin Jing. If you sign up in the next day you can get a discount. I might sign up for it. A few people on this forum over the years have said good things about it.
  8. Check out Tasshin. He loves the whole universe. https://tasshin.com/
  9. Falun Dafa/Falun Gong

    Sounds like TM. I wonder if there are (or will be) groups that split off and do the method without all the weirdness, as happened with TM.
  10. Any religion spread by force got nothing to offer

    OT, but here is a joke I read recently: Why were the Star Wars trilogies release out of order? In charge of the schedule Yoda was.
  11. Wim Hof, some less savoury details

    I followed along a few WHM breathing videos, but I could not get past a 2:00 hold. It never got easier. I did not push the tension into my head in the 15-second hold after the main holds. Now I am doing o2 and co2 tables from freediving. I breathe deeply during the breathing part, and only about 10 seconds of hyperventilation before the holds. I do feel like my baseline energy is higher, but not like the immediate boost that a lot of WHM people talk about. Hopefully I am not using any core qi or jing. My instructor has said positive things about WHM and breathwork in general. But he does not think pushing the tension into the head as they do in WHM is a good idea.
  12. Wim Hof, some less savoury details

    Were your issues from the cold baths or from the breathing? When people say "Wim Hof Method", they could be referring to the cold, the breathing, or both.
  13. Even on a Daoist forum I can't get away from christians.
  14. Greetings and Thank You for Accepting My Membership

    I also live in ATX. What taichi group do you practice with?
  15. How do you eat?

    I just saw this today: diet tips from a woman who is 106: https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/woman-106-still-lives-her-213617906.html
  16. How do you eat?

    https://nosdiet.com/ Try the No S Diet: No Snacks, No Sweets, No Seconds, except (sometimes) on days that start with "S".
  17. Flying Phoenix Chi Kung

    If you are open to suggestions from the cheap seats: How about a sub-forum for Flying Phoenix and TTP?
  18. The Weigh

    If you do OMAD, doesn't your one meal have to be a lot bigger and require more prep time?
  19. Mantra and chi

    Were these the same seed sounds as in Yoga/Hinduism?
  20. Prophecy of the Coming

    It's Q-balah-non.
  21. Chundi mantra

    I found a file on Bodri's site where he gives a pronunciation of the Chundi mantra (or Zhunti as he calls it). I extracted it, and looped it and have the mantra on a loop for about 14 minutes. If anyone is interested in using it, let me know and I will see if I can share it. People have had issues with files on this site before.
  22. Very unpopular opinions

    I once had a dream where I went to work naked, and in the dream everybody was annoyed with me. Not because I was naked at the office, but I was naked at the office on the wrong day. Apparently if someone came in naked on the wrong day, it could jeopardize the chances of an office vacation to Cancun. My real life is far less interesting.
  23. Chundi mantra

    Maybe you have been over this, but: how did you come across the Chundi mantra? And what other mantras did you try? Give us your testa-chundi. I have never tried it. I first read about it on Bill Bodri's site.
  24. Chundi mantra

    "wrong image" meaning you are making the wrong gesture? Or do you mean something more supernatural/sinister, like seeing someone other than yourself in the mirror?
