I noticed Mantak Chia was in wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantak_Chia

Yes, all taoist systemm uses Mantra/Incantation. Master Wang is belong to Taoist Northern system Quanzhen (Complete Perfection) longmen (dragon gate) branch. Master Wang taught tiny part of Chanting Mantra ("Zhou-yu" in Chinese) , Nine Palace & Eight Diagrams ("Jiu-Gong-Ba-Gua" in Chinese) and Star Array ("Xing-Zhen" in Chinese) in one of his public seminar many years ago.

In China, only one Taoist master named Wang Liping 王力平, no other Taoist master Wang Liping 王立平. It just a misspelling in the article.

Seth Ananda is asking the following questions. But, the thread was buried by many others. I encourage any taobums, who followed my initial thread and linked some other seminars, supposed have the answers. Please sincerely answer the question. Share your informations of "Personal Experiences with Wang Liping". http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?showtopic=7414&hl= ******************** A Lot of people have been mentioning Wang Liping and he sounds Like a pretty cool, Powerful dude. If people are willing I would love to hear about any Personal experiences people or students have had with him. Please keep this thread to First Hand story's (as much as possible (Tao bums is nothing without some good rambling conversation)) and I would love to hear comparisons to other great teachers you may have met. There seems to be a kind of consensus here that Mr Liping is a cut above the rest, and so I (respectfully) would like to know why. From people who have studied under him or met him. Thanks, Seth Ananda

Thank you very much ! Please check your mail box in Taobums.

Could anyone give me some clear information about our new president's true believe (religion, philosophy) ? I heard many information, such as Christian, Muslim, Marxist (communist), socialist etc. I'm not clear about the drama of his pre-pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., and his church(Trinity United Church of Christ). Obama resigned from Trinity Church. Did the new president go to some other church ?

***Borrow from other thread********** HugoOlivaresMila post Yesterday, 06:52 AM Good Day now we can read about Celestial Enlightened Immortal Wang Liping In Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taoist_Wang_Liping It seems they forget to tell that Immortal Wang Liping have also this name: Linglingzi! I wonder wich name do students call him, when is each of the 3 names use? Have you more or any comments or information or questions about the information please let us know! Thanks

Your question: which name do students call him, when is each of the 3 names use ? Answer for which name: None of the 3 names are called by the students. The most popular title used by students is "Wang Laoshi (means 'Teacher Wang')". Answer for when use the 3 names: Maybe his mentors (the 3 old Taoists) call him 'Wang Yongsheng' and 'Linglingzi'. Maybe his colleagues call him 'Wang Liping'.

"Da Dao Xing '' and "Xing Da Dao" are two different books. "Xing Da Dao" not been translated yet. This book was authorized by Shen ZhiGang and Liu Yapi. There is a blog related to this book in English. Ken help Shen Laoshi introduce a little of this book. Shen Laoshi is one of Master Wang's long term follower.

Sino-U.S. religious leaders call for dialogue, understanding among faiths, nations Dozens of Chinese and American religious leaders met Tuesday, calling for more dialogue and mutual understanding among different faiths to promote life and maintain world stability. "We should base (ourselves) on the common well-being of mankind, get rid of narrow-mindedness and prejudice, stick to mutual understanding and communication, mutual respect and solidarity," said Ding Changyun, vice president of the China Taoist Association, at the Chinese-American Multi-religious Dialogue event in the Mercer University. He said it has been proved by history that religions can play a significant guiding role in individual moral cultivation and promoting family harmony and harmonious social development. More religious efforts are required to realize human peace and social harmony, so religious communities across the world should bear the words "Friendly (and) Equality" in mind and develop extensive and in-depth exchanges and dialogue, Ding added. Gao Feng, president of the China Christian Council, told the conference that in view of the Christian spirit of "loving others like loving yourself," his religion encourages dialogue with other faiths to further understand and trust others, and then love others. Taking Christianity and Buddhism, Jing Yin, a member of the standing committee of the Buddhist Association of China, said that despite their differences in the basic doctrines, both religions seem to be able to offer stability, values, identity recognition and a goal to the individual. Michael Elliston from Atlanta Zen Soto Center noted that we are living in a time when the desire for peace and stability has never been stronger. "Securing it (stability) will require an abiding appreciation of the value of life, honoring each person's unique identity and a clear grasp of the higher purpose of life," he said. The three Chinese are among a delegation of religious leaders from China, who are on a 12-day visit to the United States at the invitation of three U.S. Christian groups, starting last Thursday. In Atlanta, the delegation staged a forum for multi-faith religious leaders and government officials, as well as civic leaders including U.S. former President Jimmy Carter. Delegates discussed topics on how each religious tradition seeks to inform and strengthen family relationships in the light of globalization and rapid change in modern society. They also addressed the issue of how belief systems impact majority-minority relationships and religious freedom in China and the United States. The delegation is also scheduled to meet with U.S. lawmakers, federal government officials, academicians and media in Washington, D.C. later this week. Dee Froeber, an organizer from North Carolina Forest Hills Baptist Church Raleigh, told Xinhua that the visit is aimed at creating understanding of religious roles in both Chinese and American societies, exploring from multiple perspectives the contribution religions can offer to society and discovering new directions and opportunities for dialogue on the status of religious freedom in the two countries.

I met Master Wang Liping, and I heard from Taoist Wang said in 2008 Dalian, China. 1. Wang Liping his own will live to 150 years old. 2. One of his senior follower, who currently 80 years old, will live to 120 years old. Did you hear any QiGong Masters and Taoist healer dare to say this word ? I believe "Opening the Dragons Gate" is a real biography. I know one of the author.
