  1. Kunlun-style 5 element standing

    A certain website you mean ? ifso can you link em plz, cheers !
  2. I do chen and although i cant do any of the forms completely in reverse yet i try to practice every seperate move or stance in mirror image. As suggested by our teacher .. make that mind flexible
  3. Kunlun Practice Environment

    tummo ftw ! Wonder if this practice is officially compatible with kunlun, i wouldnt recommend anyone mixing anything on own account btw.
  4. The Term Enlightenment

    Hey i had the same in mind as an answer To be in its purest, most essential and original form hehe.
  5. The Term Enlightenment

    I was talking to someone, a total stranger who was sitting on a bench on a big square in Antwerp .. he had a plate next to him saying: talk to me about the art of living .. so i did lol. We had a very nice talk about the current dimension of human existance, he mainly refered to the work of Jean Gebser, he had the ever present origin in he's hands. (not that i know alot about the book, i was mainly listening what the man had to say wich was very intresting) Suddenly a lady comes up with a cute dog, she happens to know the man im talking to. A girl is sitting a few meters further with an icecream in her hands. The dog rushes towards the icecream. The older lady commented: Look at the dog, running straight towards the essence of its existance ! She put it so nice Im glad i stopped to talk to the strange guy with he's plate hehe.
  6. Punishment from Heaven

    Heaven and earth are ruthless, Trampling the myriad creatures like straw dogs. The wise are ruthless, Considering the people as straw dogs. Is something i yust stole from the ttc, so i think Grasshopper is right when he says heaven doesnt judge good or bad .. certainly not in this way. Still i can understand certain aspects of the tao when spoken to loud (when reveiled) can have devastating effect when used unwisely. Maybe its more of a warning to keep yourself away from harm ?
  7. Coral castle

    Yust watched ed leedskalnin's video again, very intresting. Is anyone here from florida or been in he's castle before ? There is great myth around him it seems, if he could do what these people claim in the video, darn lol. http://video.google.nl/videoplay?docid=817...h&plindex=0 some extra info: http://www.leedskalnin.com/ http://alley29.com/Sphinx%20Group/sphinx.html
  8. Merry Christmas Everyone.

    merry xmas all
  9. 5 years to the next cycle?

    LoL Yeh have the same opinion, i assume the calendar is round for a reason Thelerner, noone knows what exactly caused the end of mayan civilization here on earth. Some even say it didnt end.
  10. Max and Aliens

    Possible im the last to argue over details .. to me it feels like the most yin day of the year yust because winter starts (cold, dark) the night (dark, black) is the longest of the year and the day (light, white) is the shortest. Where allready setting up for tonight, im anxious
  11. Max and Aliens

    Yeh freeform, lets me think about Jean Gebser's ever present origin :/ 1. The archaic structure 2. The magic structure 3. The mythical structure 4. The mental structure 5. The integral stage Forget what i said above, i got some serieus thinking to do it seems lol. Though not now, moon is at 91% and its the most YIN day of the year. Tonight strange things happen. Im so exited ciao
  12. Interview with Lin's Master

    Wow thanx really
  13. cool squat mobility article

    Nice article hehe
  14. Max and Aliens

    Humans always want more, more I believe that in general we did fell from a higher spiritual state into a lower one wich is more materialistic, certainly here in the west. A link with the atroposophy thread pops up where there is mentioning of Ahriman who tries to bind humandkind towards the earth (most of our technology is made from plastic and metal wich comes from the earth) and thus holding us more and more away from spititual development, wich is yust a way of putting it. Im not stepping into the aliendiscussion as its a sensitive subject (ow and im being slapped around my head with them continously by some friends of me who dont talk about anything else ) Regards !
  15. Kunlun Question

    I have the same, i think its normal as most people click with righthand, maybe push out the blood like that i dont know ? Typing doesnt seem good for circulation in any case lol. With energywork fe. it feels mostly the other way around, left hand cold and right warm * Think its happens people interfere with electronic devices after doing nei/qigong yeh. Also my moms still mad at me for frying here 400$ portable phone, this was static electricity though. Dont wear polar fleece. Cheers !
  16. Kunlun Question

    I read about this in your personal practice forum and although very powerfull i can imagine that it also has its dangers without previous knowledge or proper guidance Not aimed at you but at anyone trying to experiment with it hehe Sheng Zhen the black hole at the niwan is a metaphor yeh though a black hole is exactly how it feels and the creepiest part is that it stays there and only gets bigger lol. When energized trough taichi, kunlun or other practice (sometimes even an electric shock or sitting to close to an electrical device or even your loved one) it starts pulsing lol. Anyways, cheers Your saying exactly the same thing i meant lol. I also think Sheng Zhen hit the nail on the head when he said "I think this is another example of how people use scientific language to explain what they feel or what they see with their spiritual eyes." Its possible meteors dont emit energy by themselves, im sure though that they have the property to contain big amounts of yinlike energy, if you ever happen to drop by Belgium i can let you feel it with your own hands hehe. Also thanx for pointing at this giant error LOL, i doubt indeed that astronomists like to be called astrologists haha you have to forgive me :/ my english comes after dutch and french so sometimes the spelling, in this case the meaning even gets mixed up a little Anyways .. in the end its as you say -> whatever the explenation may be .. if it works .. it works !
  17. Kunlun Question

    I dont have any scientific evidence to back any of this up but personally im convinced its possible to attain enormous energy from a black hole, it can be tricky to call it radiating imho because of the nature of the energy itself wich isnt expanding but contracting .. nevertheless it gives of energy so technically it radiates I assume its black because it absorbs everything including light instead of reflecting it. As a sidenote for astrologists its not possible to pinpoint the location of a black hole by itself but only because of how its surrounding reacts to it. (btw yust as one of the ways how people can identify the presence of yin .. being absence or change in yang) Also a meteor can hold great amounts of energy, its not said that if you find one that it will be in there but it surely can contain alot of yinlike energy. A real keris for example always contains a stone from the air (a meteorite) because of this property. The empu by means of ritual, meditation and concentration gives the yinlike conscious energy certain properties or tasks (health, luck, wealth, protection fe.) according to the wishes of the person where it is build for.

  22. Kunlun Europe

    See you in Hamburg and Amsterdam although i dont have any connections there. I also suggest putting Belgium in the list. In Antwerp (diamonds and choclates) there should be enough intrest and good accomodation and not that far from Amsterdam, yust an idea Regards, Mike
  23. Coping with major energy changes - How do I?

    Lol that sounds like alot of yang activities yes. Incorporating more yin practice seems not such a bad idea yep. Be carefull though .. there are also very strong yin practices wich can make you end up overflown like the problem you described in your starterpost. Certainly when sensitive to energy. Well, probably always gonna come down to finding a nice balance or harmony between the 2 opposites Good luck !
