Meh, I don't have anything to say except that you guys have become a bunch of drama queens.

Ohhhhhhhh... Thanks, I get it now (LOL).

Hari, sorry but this is driving me nuts lol, it's loppon!

Oh really? Then what are you doing going around reading books? Sure you don't need transmission to engage in the practice of something. Maybe you can have some effects. But then what is the point of such a practice? I don't know but definitely not what the original intention was, more like entertainment I suppose.

I'm not saying you can't learn from books. I'm just saying you can't learn everything from books. For example in this case I think you can learn the visualizations from a book without much problem, but the correct breathing? That's a different story. Also you can't get the transmission from a book. Or advice. And sometimes things are left out from books, which might be mentioned or it might not be. And, if you believe so much in learning from books, these books often if not always say that you have to receive the transmission and instructions from an authentic teacher, why can't you learn that too? These days you don't have to go to Tibet to learn things like this, there are authentic teachers going around US, Europe and Asia.

Hm what? So for you asking a chemist about geography is better than asking a geographist about geography?

Can you rephrase? I just don't get it. Sorry for being a pest.

From books you can learn how to practice to maim or kill someone, or a less extreme example, how to do various chemistry experiments, some with concentrated acids etc., according to you that isn't dangerous? To think that just because something is in a book it isn't dangerous is at the least a pretty naive view.

ROFL, are you for real?

Who isn't a Buddhist... That's like asking the Pope, "oh those pesky Buddhist deny a creator god, can you tell me what you think if there is one or not?" Though perhaps you're not thinking of Buddhism since it's not a nihilistic view.

Sorry, what did you mean with this? I don't understand.

Oh that explains it... I thought you two were the same person.

What?

Good question. I suppose to spread some information in order to create interest and to be useful to those who have received the correct instructions. SFQ is real, only positive reviews as far as I can remember, I practiced it myself for a while. I don't think there's much if anything there that you could do wrong if you follow the instructions on the video and in the manual. Why not?

Ahh... After a little thinking it seems too complicated for me to indulge in a discussion on this haha. I will say though that from the quote you provided I didn't deduct that he is talking about an eternal source. Though I suppose it depends on what exactly someone means with an "eternal source".

I have a question to go with this, unless you already know the answer. Is this system of 200 postures particular to the lineage in which BKF was taught or is it present in other lineages? Or is this system the sum of all standing postures in all of Taoism?

If you want to read about it I suggest "The Bliss of Inner Fire" by Lama Yeshe. But if you want to practice it I suggest you find an authentic Tibetan Buddhist teacher, mainly for two reasons. The first is that you will also receive teachings that will put it in the proper context (which will dismiss incorrect ideas such as increasing body temperature) and second is that you can really mess yourself up if you don't practice correctly.

edit: An additional question to my previous one, if it's not too late... How about a Neigong version of the Bagua Mastery Program?

Scotty, sorry it's not clear to me, but which two opinions are you reffering to?

Is Pietro a good student? j/k A question I have is: Do you plan on publishing any more books and/or videos from the 16-part neigong system?

Bashar - Follow the path of least resistance, the path of greatest joy. Buddha - There is suffering. Gee, I wonder why people'd find Bashar more "practical". But from watching the video it seems to me like Bashar is a relative of Spock or something.

What?! I thought that was in the spirit of TTB?

Certainly not Li.

Very cool Sean, thank you and thanks to Chunyi Lin.

My apologies for participating. As for your question... I like what Rex said. Other than that on what to do beforehand perhaps you should try to relax and give up your expectations. When there be like an empty unbroken vase (which basically means to listen attentively without mixing your own ideas into what he says). If you have some sort of experience don't get attached to it.
