Hello! Thank you so much for your replies, all of you. I'll try to find a practice and a teacher he's comfortble with. The reason I was thinking about the kunfu club, is that they have a "KunFu Kids" group for the youngest children (age 4-8), and I guess it's more playful and less serious. I'll give them a call and check it out. Maybe I'll even sign myself up for classes if it feels allright Thanks for advice and tips

Wow, this thread has taken an interesting turn! My son, 6 years old and very empathetic, is very drawn to my practice and what I do. I've remained sceptical to teach him anything, but every time he feels sick or have an headache he wants me to lay my hands on him, and that's probably the only active thing I do, energetically, towards him. He is sensitive to energies and my emotions or pain wear off on him. Therefore I feel responsible for keeping myself balanced as well. However; he wants to begin practice martial arts, and there is a Hiep Vo Mon Kunfu club not far from where we live. So I just wanted to hear from you if you have any advice. I don't want to mess up his system, so to speak.... Thanks

Hi The question came up in a thread here the other day, and I've been wondering ever since. Would anyone care to elaborate? Thanks!

Sweet! Thank you so much for your responce, all of you. It was very helpful

Thank you for sharing this, hagar. A couple of months ago, in the middle of my "winter depression", I laid awake and pondered these things. I began to cry because, all though I never make plans for the future (I'm afraid they'll be ruined), I realized I always put my life on hold, waiting for the future as life passes me by. And time goes so fast..... This was a reminder, thank you

Hi! I think it's very interesting that you write that your scepticism "blocked" the energy, because I had the same experience during the seminar in Oslo. I felt very confident in Max and the boys though, since I met them before the seminar and got the chance to "study" them and talk to them. And I felt that they were very open and sharing, and that was reassuring and comforting when people were crying, screaming and laughing on the floor around me. I wasn't sure about signing up either, after seeing the videos on the website, but somehow I couldnit resist it. It was meant to be. My friend qinqong said I had to go as well, and he always wins so...RAW And even if nothing happened at the seminar, a lot has happened since. And it's simply because I had to stop analyzing and thinking. In fact knowing too much blocks the energy. I had to tell myself to trust that my body knows what it's doing, and forget everything else. At the same instant I felt a tremendous relief and the energy was released. So, you just hang in there, I'm sure you will have a good kunlun-time this summer Thanks for sharing!

Hello again. I was hoping I finally could find some one who could give me an idea of what I've been experiencing the last couple of years or so. I understand that some of you are into acupunture and similar and maybe you've heard of it before? In stead of shivers and chills down my spine when I respond to some thing (mostly fear or sadness), I get this sensation in my pelvic area and running down my thighs. Mostly on my left side. It feels like it's something creeping around in there, like a serpent. I was thinking it has something to do with the ischiadic nerve and perhaps the rootchakra because it seems to be triggered by emotions. After all these years I'm still around, so I don't think it's a serious medical condition..... Does any one have a clue? Thanx

Thanks for sharing that link! It was very enlightening....and a bit scary to think about at the same time. Now I know what my body is actually doing, but at least I'm in control so far. Here's our chance to hi-jack this thread and make it non-kunlun.

Happy birthday to you, Yoda. I guess I'm a little late, but I hope your day was great! Happy birthday, Mantra. Have a wonderful day and eat a lot of chocolate Hope to see you back in Norway again soon, and maybe we'll even find a fjord you can visit.

Thank you so much for your answers. I will try to unravel the mystery that creates this "thing", but I'm not keen on magnifying it. I think I'll take it slow.

Not just you. I think this and the other thread on the front speaks for itself. I don't know what it was like before, maybe your reactions are reasonable. I totally understand your concern regarding the disappearing threads, and of course it would be nice to have subforas for the most discussed practises, not only kunlun.

O'boy that seems like a huge task

You make us feel unwelcome I've been into other foras and I know how you feel, all the newbs flooding and spamming with silly Qs repeatedly....and when I feel like that I thank myself for the reminder that I've also been a novice. I can't see why there should be any competition between the members and the practise they favor. In fact I don't understand this "hostility." If you're not interested in a topic, don't bother looking into them and make new topics on the subjects you like instead of those you dislike. Is freedom of choice such a difficult matter?

Hi Hundun Thanks for responding so quick! I've only been practising kunlun for app. 3 weeks, before that I haven't practised anything. I've seen a healer once in a while in order to dissolve some of the blockages I have, but nothing has ever worked on this "problem." I guess my digestion is ok now, I had to quit eating and drinking artificial sweetener because of the phenylalanine. That has helped a lot! I'm not sure about my kidneys. I took an X-ray of my kidnesy once after a heavy cystitis, but they were normal, but things may have changed of course. Thanks for answering I guess it might have something to do with fear. Some say that the rootchakra is linked up to "mother-issues" and I grew up living in fear of losing my sick mum. She passed away four years ago and this "thing" actually began the year after... Concerning sexual issues....if there are issues, I'm not aware of them.

I have a question to those who are negative towards KunLun and Max: Have you tried it? Have you met him personally? Some people like to stick to what others have done before, other find that restricting and inhibiting and toss away the rituals and go up-stream. There's nothing wrong with that and to me this anti-kunlun attitude reminds me of fear rather than healthy scepticism.

Beautiful quotes, Anette. Thank you for sharing the wisdom of Dalai Lama. It struck a string in my heart! Einstein...*sigh* You know, Albert hung out with Mahatma Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore. I don't think it was accidental that they "hooked up."

Is she supposed to figure that out till next appointment? I think that question takes a whole process to be answered, maybe weeks, months, years. It's about recognizing the path you've chosen, you may regret some of it, but you must accept it as a part of a bigger picture, that there is more to come. Nothing is ever wrong, just different so to speak. She is actually blessed to be facing this "crisis". Some people never even get their chance to question their life and identity. This brings growth and new understanding, but it will take as much time that it needs to reconnect with the true self. Here's one of my favorites. I'm not sure it's much help , but it's a beautiful poem by Robert Frost. It might be a comfort knowing that we always have a choice in how we perspect life.

Because kunluners are taking over the world muahahaha Seriously, I heard about this forum from fellowkunluners, so I guess the news about this forum is spreading amongst us. I'm sorry that not-kunluners feel that we are intruding or spamming, but I think the most of us are only trying to share our experience and ask questions. And our experiences are somewhat....odd..?

Yes,I guess there might be a correlation between gravity waves in the atmosphere, causing the cloud formation, and the seismic waves in the Earth's interior, but in general this theory isn't accepted by physicists. BTW kunluners do jump up and down a lot

Polar Stratospheric Clouds. However it doesn't make sense, because these clouds are formed at high latitudes in the winter. We can see them furhter south (eg. Oslo, where I live) because of the high altitude (stratosphere), but not in the middle of China?! In the summer? These standing waves could actually be the explaination, but my guess the origin is due to topological variations..

Looks like PSCs to me...

Hey Anette, my dear friend Nice to see you in here too! I don't think we can "shut it out" since we're all interconnected. We can avoid it to some degree, but if not, we will store it somewhere within ourselves. I don't know the taoist way of dealing with this matter, as I'm a newb my self, but being an EMT in "my old life", I've had to deal with a lot of pain. There is a LOT of pain out there. It wasn't until I started my spiritual path I realized that I've stored some of it myself. The helplessness and impotence of not being able to aid people in need became such a blockage in my system that I'm still cleansing it out, many years later. So at times I avoid the news because I become too emotional, other times I need to balance and take it in, cry my bold tears- if they can bear the experience, I can bear to read about it- and then; I let it go. And here's what I think; if you can cleanse it out, think of it as balancing your own emotions and traumas (because often it reflects your own fear), you might actually be helping them to cleanse it out of their system as well, since we are all connected. The world needs love and compassion, it's all energy. And since I'm not working in "the gutter" anymore, I donate money to charity so that those who are strong enough, can ease the pain and save lives as I wanted to do in the first place.

As long as I'm alone and the noise is somewhat monotone and continuous, it doesn't bother me. Sudden, loud or sharp sounds startle me sometimes, but it's actually my ear's instinctive movement towards the sound that I find the most disturbing...(BTW is it normal for human beings having ears moving like that? Maybe I'm "the missing link?" ) So if you manage to get used to the background noise to some level, I think you might have a nice meditation after all. Good luck!

Can't wait until next time! Finally things are happening BIG time, however I find myself being too scared to go all the way. Still; I'm forever grateful!

I think I've heard of something like that from a guy at the Kunlun seminar in Oslo, but I don't remember what it was supposed to do...
