Probably not It's sad because it was nice to have a different forum to read for a while If I remember correctly he left TDB to go that forum, but now he's not here nor there, maybe someone can contact him or he comes back someday.

Yep I've "seen"(read lol) this happening to every sort of practitioner from different systems. Once I read a comment in another forum, in this same subject, where a guys said that, not necessarily with these words, but it was something like this: "If someone is practicing a real system, it will eventually happen, and it's not necessarily because women will think you are attractive, they will just feel something different in you and this will cause this effect, they will be looking to you and trying to understand what it is, and this can be confused with sexual attraction" this seems a good explanation. BUT I've read people saying that this is 100% sexual attraction, so it's hard to say who is right, but I'll just leave more food for thought here

Forgiveness is not about who is right or who is wrong, it's just about healing yourself and letting go of this energy, so YOU can heal. People often keep these things "he did this to me" and end up with some sort of illness because of the somatization.

The best way to overcome anger is forgiveness. Forgive whoever hurt you, and do a lot of metta(loving-kindness meditation) towards that person.

What about women attraction and practicing the internal arts? That's very dope. I've seen a lot of people commenting on this topic on some posts here. Some agree and some don't. I definitely think there's something to it, I don't know if it's Jing or Chi or anything else, but it does happen. There's mentions about this on Yoga practitioners saying this can happen during the practice while your body is starting to change, and then after some time it stops, and obviously, this is not the point of the practice and shouldn't become attached to these things. There's also mentions about this on 2 of Damo Mitchell's books, in one he mentios this can happen while working on the central channel(sushmna or chong mai) and in the other he mentions it can happen because of a built and full LDT. Which is kinda funny because while in Yoga it's meant to stop after some time, in Damo's book it feels like it never stops unless you "unbuild" your LDT lol

"The Alchemical Garden" was a forum created by one of our oldest members here (Earl Grey, if I'm not mistaken). It's focus was to discuss about the same things we talk on The Dao Bums, it was like a alternative version. That forum also had it's own "Flying Phoenix Chi Kung" thread, I remember reading some years ago and there was also good info there, but I just can't access this forum anymore, anyone knows what happened, is it gone forever?

Can someone please go more in-depth on this topic on why good quality sleep is needed or quote the original post?

I remember reading somewhere(maybe in this post), something related to FPCK and karma burning, is this true? By "karma burn" I'm referring to the act of burning bad karma from our bodies and this could result in bad things happening in one's life for a short period of time until it's all cleared.

Ok nice, great answers bro, thank you very much!! I will be practicing again today.

Oh well.. this debunks so many stuff I think I need to read again half of the forum lol

yep I can't find nothing about it, I hope he is well and comes back soon I saw that his account wasn't there like 3 days ago but didn't gave it too much attention, I thought it as a bug or something

Hello everyone! Just did another 30min practice of Monk Holds The Pearl sitting med from GM Doo Wai Youtube video, I'm doing this daily until my Level 1 DVD arrives. I think today 7 or 8 days until I started, I'm not counting and I forgot which day was my first practice lol Today what I felt was: - Hot and kinda "heavy" sensation in hands during practice - Lots of neck spontaneous movements - Some spontaneous movements in the torso - At the end of practice, around the 30min mark, I started feeling hot in my entire torso and head, not TOO hot but enough to make me lightly sweat, I was wearing a hoodie since it's very cold where I live. Is this good? - Change in breathing pattern during practice, similar to Yoga Breath of Fire, sometimes I would start inhaling and exhaling very fast, is this supposed to happen or I did something wrong here??? This happened in the last two sessions of practice too but I didn't give it too much attention, now I think I should ask if this is okay, maybe it's completely wrong I don't know, it happened for like 30seconds max and stop, and then it reapeat again some time later during practice and stop again I read only until page 12 at the moment and I haven't seen people mentioning this pattern of breathing nor the hot sensation during practice. ========================================================== I also have 3 questions regarding the ending of FPCK practice: 1- Can I do like 5 deep breathing at the end instead of 3? Just to make sure I do 3 correctly. 2- After the 3 deep breaths, can I do things like: rub hands and "wash" face, rub LDT clockwise and rub kidneys or this can be bad? Every system I practice before FPCK I did these massages at the end so it feels weird to finish without them haha 3- Did someone ever had acid reflux after practice, I had this twice this week after doing this med, I never have it so I think it's correlated to the practice, maybe a energy clearing reaction? Thanks in advance!!

lmao I forgot about facebook, oh well what happened..

I'm not here to gossip nor anything like that but I need the intel Anyone know what happened?

Thank you!
