this is an video-sample from Ring Of Fire showing famous 'John Chang', written about in the Magus of Java. Inbetween he explains his way of kan and li in four seconds... John Chang

the early (80s to 90s) illustrations were made by Juan Li. https://ichingdao.org/en/juan-li/

after three months of constant pleading she finally has granted my wish! Materializing in front of me she said: "Well honey, why don't you just type "/index.php" after that 'www.thedaobums.com' thingy and see where it leads you?" And what can I say? She is right - as always! Three months abstaining from thedaobums - did i miss anything important?

thanks for the welcome and the update! Chinese deci belle ... wow...like someone saying really profound things nobody can possibly understand? I will have to look into that! I have no idea why joeblast was banned but I'm strongly against it anyway. On a more serious note: it is true that I could not access the daobums. Since around october I was directed to a drawing of Guanyin and the note "offline, back soon". I supposed the daobums actually was offline which obviously is not true, so maybe Sean or other staff could look into that? Maybe I am not the only one experiencing that problem!

Hi, I just saw on his website daoistmagic.com he has written an autobiography. Looking forward to reading it, just wanted to share here.

It's a cellular automaton.

what?! ..down for like almost two days? whaa *panics* .

I was a bit shocked to read on (german) wikipedia that Choa Kok Sui has died recently at young age. He was quite influential here in the the spiritual healing scene.

there's a translation in french (easier than chinese ) Farzeen Baldrian-Hussein: Procedes secrets du Joyau magique haven't read it though... .

in the video list there is a video of his complete Xing Shen Zhuang form!

knowing the radicals definately helps.. now this discussion revamps some motivation to pick up my learning chinese again! to spin it further i just found a obviously very arcane charakter (sorry cannot copypaste it here doesnt work) that has this ji4 thing (like in the "qi" charakter we discuss) as upper radical and instead of the four dot fire below is the four stroke radical for xin (heart), pronounces as ai4, meaning LOVE. Now i find that's cute. so instead of the fire causing the lifeforce of the dog to steam, rattle and shake him, you give him a heart underneath, and love emerges

adding my totally uninformed opinion : reading the upper radical as 无 doesn't makes sense because it is the new shortform of wu2, so but the old qi character is an ancient one so it can't be they used the reformed hanzi in it, or am i wrong?. ji4 in its geneology stems from dog, in the online dictionary (zhongwen.com) it says: "ji4, breath reversed or stoppped as swallow". So i would read it as fire heating the reversed breath.

hi notendo, you can do a search for "John Chang" on the forum's search function. you'll get well over 300 results. alot of info , alot of half-info, a lot of misinfo probably too. I hope you find your way thru

here's a weirdo indian dhrupad chant that falls into the non-tempered tuning thing i think, one of my favourites, check it out: Faiyyazuddin & Zahiruddin Dagar (put a check in the box and click play selected songs...)

so young to return don't blame it on the music where are lawyers now?
