Just a word on Casteneda and the Toltec tradition. I haven't really followed the post here regarding these topics, but I have just spent the last 6 months deeply involved in these subjects. Surprisingly I found "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Toltec Wisdom" by Sheri Rosenthal to be a terrific source book,to understand much that was obscure in Casteneda's books, although it never does touch on sexuality(I guess you have to be more than an idiot to broach this subject). She also approaches the Toltec tradition from a woman's point of view. Check it out. You can get a used copy on Amazon.com really cheap. I do some Magical Passes everyday. They had a real strong input from a Chinese man named Lujan who somehow got stranded in Mexico at least a 100 or more years ago(I forget). He was obviously a Taoist. He's mentioned in the introductory section of the 1st set of Passes. Sorry if I'm moving off topic here. Eric Yudelove

"Practice the Way" that's the same as saying "Practice the Tao". How does one practice the Tao? Master Eric Yudelove

Dear Fire Dragon: Glad to hear you and others are using my books to learn and practice(there are actually 3 books and I just spoke to my publisher yesterday, who informed me that they have been translated and published in 20 different languages.) I've been going through "100 Days" with my wife Dian, we're just about to start Week Four. I really hadn't looked at the book for quite a while and I have to say that I'm quite pleased with its thoroughness and clarity. Perhaps my greatest gift is the ability to take often difficult concepts and portray them in a clear and easy to understand manner. This skill probably comes from my almost 30 years as a criminal lawyer and my need to present clear, precise and concise summations to juries. I don't think there will be any more Taoist course books. "Taoist Yoga and Sexual Energy" took it as far as I think you can take it in a book. This book is much more my own teachings than "100 Days", which was sort of an amalgam of the teachings of Mantak Chia and Wilhelm's translation of the classic Taoist text "The Secret of the Golden Flower",although it's structure was uniquely my own. (I find Cleary's translations of "The Secret of the Golden Flower to be useless from a practical point of view, however I loved "Opening the Dragon's Gate".) I am currently working on a children's novel with Dian about dragons. As to my own practice, aside from teaching Dian, I spend a lot of time, when I'm in New York, on my 200 foot long Taoist rock pathway, which is decorated with the entire inventory of a gem and mineral store that I purchased when it went out of business. About 2/3 of the way down the path you cross over a wooden bridge, once you do, the laws of nature and physics, as are commonly understood, no longer apply. Many strange things have occurred there, as a matter of fact, strange things happen around me all the time, I usually don't pay them much mind. For instance, a couple of weeks ago I took a Zippo lighter that I use to light incense and candles out of a drawer, filled it with lighter fluid and put it on my bathroom counter. It was in perfect condition. The next morning, the outer casing of the lighter was crushed beyond repair, as if it had been hit with a powerful blow from a hammer. This might have scared some people into thinking about Paranormal Activity, I thought it was really funny(luckily I had a spare case for the lighter). I also spend some time everyday, working with my collection of crystal balls. Wonderful, wonderful tools. I bought most of them about 20 years ago when you could still find fine quality quartz balls. I spend 1/2 the year in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, which have a very a strong magic of their own. You have an unobstructed view of Mt. Washington(the highest mountain on the entire east side of the USA) from my driveway and there is a beautiful wide river 50 yards behind our house(Dian loves hiking and kyacking.) *********** Hi! This is Dian -- I was asking Eric to tell all of you how accomplished he is in Sexual Kung Fu. He actually blushed (and he's not a blushing sort of guy!) and told me if I wanted to, to tell you myself. I'm so lucky to be Eric's wife. My husband is amazing. He really walks his talk. Eric's life is a true testament to the lifestyle his books enable us to lead. He works on himself every day. He's also taking me through his brilliant "100 Days" program. It's already changed me for the better, especially my breathing, which was long a problem for me. As a matter of fact, I saw my Dr. last week and as she examined me she actually said "you finally learned how to breathe." I love it -- and we're only up to Week Four. Eric is my inspiration in all matters, including, if I may be so bold as to state it, sexually. At age 63 he provides us with a sex life beyond my wildest dreams! I haven't advanced far enough in the work to know how his books help the average person's sex life -- but I do definitely know that Eric is incredibly hot, and very, very vital. We have really wonderful sex almost daily and sometimes more often than that -- a sex life that most 23 year old men would envy -- seriously. So read on, enjoy, and take the exercises seriously! Peace, Dian ***** This is Eric again. I'm still blushing, but I do have to say, Dian is gorgeous and way hot herself. She brings out the best in me. I absolutely love and adore her. I never knew that women came in that flavor until I met her. I just wanted to tell whoever reads this a little bit about who I am and where I'm at, without violating the sorceror's code: To know, to dare and to be silent. May the Chi be with you, Eric Yudelove

Dear Cat: Jezebel is a golden brown spotted Bengal Cat. She's about 8 1/2 months old now. I got her from a breeder who has long been involved with breeding and experimental breeding programs for Bengals. The Bengal cat is actually a domesticated Asian Leopard Cat. It isn't a pussy cat at all. Jezebel isn't my 1st Bengal. My 1st Bengal looked much more like a pussy cat with spots and stripes. Jezebel looks and walks like a jungle cat. The breed has been greatly improved since I bought my 1st Bengal. She has an incredibly sweet and funny disposition. She is very smart and loves to play. When she was just about 13 weeks old I was in my bedroom and she jumped up on the bed and started meowing at me. When I went over to her, she ran to the other side of the bed. I walked away and she started meowing at me again, when I finally walked over to her again, she ran to the other side of the bed. After about 4 rounds of this, I realized that she had made up her own game and was playing with me. I was really impressed with her intelligence. She is also incredibly beautiful, graceful, and photogenic. She also absolutely adores our dog Tarot. They play all the time. Tarot is a Kishu, a very rare breed from the southernmost island in Japan, Kyushu. They were named a national treasure in Japan in 1934 and are extremely difficult to get out of the country. There are only 2 breeders in the world outside of Japan. Tarot is a wonderful dog. You can see him at:dogbreedinfo.com. Click on purebreeds at the top of the page. When the next page comes up, scroll down then press K. Next,scroll down to Kishu Ken(dog)and press it and Tarot's pictures and profile come up. Tarot looks like an all white medium size Akita. He is a very handsome dog. Kishu's are strong willed dogs but love to be trained. Hunting dogs by nature, they were trained to hunt wild boar, bear and deer. He has AKC titles in Novice and Advanced Rally, a 2nd place Obedience win and needs 3 more points from the American Rare Breed Assoc. for his Championship. My wife Sparkle is simply the finest woman I ever knew. What more can I say. If I could figure out how to do it, I'd post photos here. She's been a runway model, a ballerina, an attorney, a writer and my loving Sorceress. Currently we are collaborating on a children's book with the working title " The Dragon Master and the Pussy Cat Dragon". I'm glad that you found my books helpful on your Way. Eric

Master Chia is the man most responsible for the renewal of interest in Taoist practices in the early 1980s.

Listen kid, I've been a magician since 1971, in 1999 Master Mantak Chia made me the 1st American Tao Master. I've written 3 books on magick and Taoism. If I tell you entities are dangerous, believe it. If you are really happy with your entity then you're probably possessed. It will continually trick you into believing that she knows what's best for you. Your Soul is on the line here. Wake up and smell the roses. Bye the way, how do I post a new message or blogs. I still can't figure out how to use this site and I'm looking for some interesting Taoists to schmuzz with. EY

Rumors of my poor ending have been somewhat exaggerated. I've just been working on my education. These things take time. I wrote a couple of books on Taoist practices and one on Taoism and Magick. The road to immortality can take many unexpected twists and turns. The teachings I followed told me that in order to reach my higher goals I would have to give up everything. How could I comprehend beforehand what this could possibly mean? I found out. It was beyond my wildest dreams or nightmares. But I don't want to discuss it. Leave it to say that I'm still here; healthy, wealthy and reasonably well adjusted for a TaoBum. Hello Friends, Eric Yudelove

I have no idea what Plato's mind frame is these days. But hello Plato. I hope it's infamously impeccable, you old daredevil. But you never know with these matters. I only met Plato twice. The SheepishLord of Chaos. Sounds like a video game. But what do I know? Would someone leave me a message telling me what this website is about and how to make the best use of it?. It seems like an interesting place. Love, Eric

How about a DNA sample? I'd be glad to send you some. Eric

I don't know what "personal power in this world" means. Let's just say I was confronted with situations I didn't think I could overcome and I did. Here's something for your shrink; my ego was crushed, demolished and disintegrated. So was it worth it? Well it was all in keeping with the path I chose to follow. I just had no idea how difficult it would become. But as they say, no pain no gain. Do I care what others think? Not really. I never sought addulation.I simply wanted to explore the mystery of this world and universe. It is very mysterious. Eric Yudelove
