Hi, has anyone done Master Lu's "Five Element Breathing Program" that is frequently advertised in the Google ads on this site?..............I went on Master Lu's web-site and it was very interesting. With all the different systems today any advice or comments would be great. Thanks

Has anyone done Kuji-In?................It is a Buddhist practice utilizing breath, mantra, mudras/hand seals......The practice is supposed to create inner harmony along with a tremendous amount of energy. The web-site is:www.kuji-in.com Couldn't get the edit to work.........The correct web-site is:www.kujiin.com

Hi All, Robert Peng has a new book called,"Qigong Master-My Life and Secret Teachings." I got my copy yesterday and it covers Robert's early years in China with his Master Xiao Yao.......From there you learn the system that Robert developed, Elixir Light Qigong. Chock full of practices and good Qi! You can get your copy at: www.fellowshipsspirit.org Price:$28.00 + 5.00 s&h

For quite awhile now, I've noticed some very disturbing conditions that seem to be affecting us individually and collectively.................In day to day situations, whether it's at the grocery store, the mall, anywhere there are groups of people,.....look at the faces of your fellow beings............It's like everybody is in some sort of shock.................A blank vacant stare from behind the eyes..............The "nobody's home" syndrome.............There seems to be an awareness or spiritual essence that is missing.................I know we have the affairs of day to day life and we're not going to go around smiling like a "Moonie" at everyone we encounter...............It just seems like we're all afraid of each other......................One of the things I think has contributed to this is the acceleration of personal technology..........mp3 players, the internet, cell phones........................especially cell phones!...................Why don't we have them permanently implanted on our ears like those Mr. Spock devices I see everywhere and we never have to miss that important call....................This could be something for another thread, but I think this "lost essence " is part of a greater plan to keep us separate and fearful and when we are collectively in this condition how could we ever unite if the global climate called for it?

goldisheavy, I didn't realize you were the Ambassador of Mandatory Posting and commend you on bringing it to the attention of anyone who cares that I've posted twice in the last 2 years.........A career in Cyber-Sleuthing maybe? Even though I haven't posted a lot, I do frequent this site a few times a week and value the commentary of many of the members. All I know is Mr. Peng has had a lot of fans here, myself included and I wanted to point out his new book for anyone interested. Anyone who sees a conspiracy in this, God bless ya! ToP-fan

Hey goldisheavy, I have nothing to do with Robert Peng or the association that is selling his book. Like VCraigP said, Mr Peng's work has been discussed many times here and I thought pointing out that he has a new book might be of interest to some of the forum members. There have been many instances where folks have notified others of a new book or dvd etc. If you google "Robert Peng book", I believe it will bring up an attachment to click on that will take you right to the ad. So don't be so heavy Goldy and have a happy meal instead.

Here's an interesting website by Dr, Jerry Alan Johnson: www.daoistmagic.com....................Very cool stuff

I know Matrix Energetics has been discussed on another thread previously and what one can accomplish using the tools learned in the system and this is neither a plug nor recommendation for it. For the past few months, I've been hanging out at their website and have read the posts of various practitioners and one of things people seem to pick up effortlessly is the moving of energy, chi, ki or whatever you want to call it. Dr. Richard Bartlett had studied over 40 energetic paradigms and in his research discovered that when you're using a "system" you have to play by the rules of the system....Why does something such as moving energy have to require years of study and had work? Could it be as easy as tapping into the "Morphic Field" ala Rupert Sheldrake of chi, prana etc and all disciplines and use them instantaneously? People are doing this now.

DUDE...................from reading your various posts, it's kind of obvious that you worship at the altar of Dr. Chunyi Lin....................I was just pointing out a new healing modality and you pop in stating that Dr.Kinslow stole a finger growing technique from Lin. How do you know where Lin got it from? Actually, I have to thank you for your post because it made me decide something that I've been contemplating for awhile...................It seems that in the past year, this site has become a place of bickering, pompous know it alls..............."my chi is bigger and better than yours!" and now I'm firmly convinced there are more horses asses in the world than horses. So I'm leaving Tao Bums and moving to another dimension...................Chow!

Although this thread's title is "A qigong path", I thought I might share a fairly new healing modality that is creating quite a stir in the natural healing community. It's called "Quantum Entrainment"..............It was developed by Dr. Frank Kinslow. From the 1st paragraph on page 36 of Dr. Kinslow's book, "The Secret of Instant Healing" "What is Quantum Entrainment? Quantum Entrainment is a quick and effective scientific method that reduces pain and promotes healing. It creates immediate changes that can be seen and felt in the body. It is reproducible and will stand up to the scientific rigor of pre- and post testing. QE continues to work long after the initial session, gently balancing and eliminating blocks to physical and emotional well being. It enlivens a healing awareness in both the initiator and the receiver of the process. There is generally a feeling of peace and relaxation that accompanies a QE session." There are some similarities between QE and Matrix Energetics being that they both have the belief that awareness, the field, the force, call it what you will is what does the healing, not the initiator. By tapping into this field by being a conduit and doing their processes things automatically come into balance whether it's a broken bone or a broken heart. The less you do and get out of the way the better. I've just started reading the book and doing the early exercises,............ training wheels if you will before getting to the meat and potatoes! www.quantumentrainment.com

Hi folks, There's a course/seminar that's been around for awhile called "Access".............It was developed by Gary Douglas in 1990. It involves energy work, belief system change and various "processes" that are done in group settings. According to Mr. Douglas, it is something that is constantly evolving and people who have done it have said it transformed their lives. Has anyone here done it or knows anyone who has? Their website: www.accessconsciousness.com

I recently purchased "The Matrix Energetics Experience" from Sounds True..............The program contains 6 audios, 1 dvd, an 85 page workbook and color coded cards called "Frequency Cards" which enables one to tap into the various frequencies of the universe................It lists for $99.95 but can be gotten a lot cheaper on Amazon and other sites. As far as Two Pointing goes, I can say right off the bat it is not Reiki or chi............As a matter of fact, Mr. Bartlett says on the video that he doesn't think chi, chakras or prana really exist and then with a smile on his face, "neither do trees"...................The point he's making, is that on a quantum level, everything is just waves and photons and what we all do to exist on this 3d level is to give labels and names to things. This is where Morphogenetic Fields come into play...............When enough people have the same belief system, the larger the field becomes and takes on it's own life................So you can tap a chi , prana field etc and then it's labeled..............As Richard says, " when you define it, you also confine it " forcing you to operate within that system with all of it's limitations. When you Two Point (which I haven't learned yet) you access the quantum field of limitless potential and collapse the wave of whatever your working on be it an injury, self esteem whatever...............Imagination is the key to tapping the field with Two Point and not placing an intent for a particular outcome. Don't try to control what is going to happen in the next instant. I heartily recommend the Sounds True program. I've only watched the video once and listened to cd 1 a few times and already I'm witnessing more of how the universe likes to play with us and I truly believe the key word here is play!

I received an email today from Michael Winn's site promoting a new book called "Internal Alchemy"................There are various contibutors to the many chapters and it's edited by Livia Kohn and Robin Wang................It tops out at 256 pages and lists for $29.95. You can see the table of contents and the various topics covered at www.healingtaousa.com

I got diagnosed with sleep apnea in 2002. I tried the cpap machine, throat sprays, devices to keep the mouth closed......... all to no avail. I've heard the didgeridoo helped with the apnea but I never got around to look for one.............gonna give it a shot..................thanks Innerspace Cadet and good luck with your playing!

Dreamingawake, Spirit Ape, Smile & Vortex, thank you for some common sense and sanity in this discussion.......Anybody with half a brain can see that the falling of the towers and building 7 violated a bunch of the laws of physics if we are to believe the fairytale version. An excellent video that debunks the debunkers is "911 Eyewitness" from Hoboken-tv by Richard A. Siegel.................Newton's three laws of motion are featured, along with the Law of Gravity, Conservation of Energy, Projectile Motion and Increasing Entropy. There are numerous isolated video shots of bomb flashes as well as the squibs to prove that these were classic demolition take downs. You can get it on Amazon.

In 2000, I was considering taking Clyman's video courses and had an extended conversation about the most of the popular Chi Kung teachers of the day...................He didn't have a nice word to say about any of them. I never forgot his arrogance and the names he pinned on these teachers. Effie Chow- a bitch who had too much control of the scheduling at the yearly chi kung conference. Mantak Chia-too difficult to understand and is over rated. Jerry Alan Johnson-"can't you see the fear in his eyes?" ( I kid you not) and my favorite Bruce Frantzis-"a beached whale" This dude was so bizarre and intimidating even on the phone!

Taoist81-You seem to want to be in a data pissing contest with anybody who points out the many flaws in the official fairytale of 9/11. I don't know what research you've done, but you seem to have quite an emotional charge on the subject. Governments have been attacking their own citizens for centuries, usually as a pretext for war.......If I go ahead and name some of the events, you'll probably accuse me of "Google Fu". The statements I posted before are all fact and documented..............I've seen the video of Silverstein making the "pull" comment. If you want to read a good book try "War is a Racket" by Major General Smedley Butler, the highest decorated Marine in 1934..............He fought in the Spanish American war and many others and came to realize that he was fighting for corporations and wars were created when economic conditions were low. If I start a thread on "False Flag Terrorism" which 9/11 was, I'm sure you'll use the google card again, so instead of getting into a pissing contest with you.........I'm gonna go piss in the wind.

Taoist81-things to consider and question: 1. Where was the "plane" that hit the Pentagon? 2. Why was there thermite and molten metal at the base of the towers? 3. Why did over 200 firefighters have gag orders on them to shut up about hearing explosive charges going off? 4. Numerous scientists and physicists have studied the way the towers fell and have concluded that they were brought down not flown into.(see #2 above) 5. Larry Silverstein who held the notes on the towers and Building 7 is on record as saying " after all the loss of life and devastation, we decided to "pull" bldg. 7" "Pull" is a demolition term used when they take down buildings? Why were there explosive charges planted in a building? 6. Pilots with over 30 years experience were quoted that "Nobody who had limited flight experience could bring in planes so precise and accurate" through the Manhattan sky- line. There are so many theories as to why this terrible event occured, but it was definitely NOT 19 hijackers who were pissed off at America and our way of life who pulled of something of this magnitude. Black Ops?..............New World Order?............The Illuminati?...............on and on...........throw some disinfo into the mix and all our heads are spinning...........just like THEY want.

What's the difference between God and a doctor? Ans: God doesn't think he's a doctor.

Read anything by Gurdjieff who's fundamental teachings are on the machinery of the body.

I love all the quotes and comments and with this topic a lot is difficult to put into words..............Here's my 2 cents: We are infinite consciousness and the body is the equivalent of a space suit for us to navigate around in here in 3d. We are only experiencing a very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum from our "ugly bags of mostly water".........(Stolen from Star Trek Next Gen) It's all illusion, play in it but don't get caught in the trance of it and laugh every day!

Starjumper7, I need to lose about 30 or so lbs....What's your secret for weight loss? ToP-fan

Glad to see folks here have a sense of humor about the Fu.................brings up many Yuks !

I have mantra that I use when somebody is rude in traffic or in departmant store............I say to them......."Yuk Fu!!!" and if does not work, I keep replying with intention..............Intention is very important......"Yuk Fu.........Yuk Fu..............Yuk Fu!!!" Then I use special hand mudra to really ward off the offender and they at the same time use their own mantra and mudra...............situation is usually discharged................. very cool !

My mom is in the early to mid stages of dementia............She is still functional as far as eating, dressing etc. The things that are a problem for her(and me) is her short term memory which causes problems when she cleans, forgetting to put covers on tightly on food jars etc. Since my dad passed away, I've moved in wih her and what is really a challenge is the constant repitition. She'll make a statement or ask a question and ten minutes later, she'll say or ask it again.................After six or seven times, it really starts to fry the nerves. I'm asking my fellow tao bums if anyone has gone through this and the best ways to cope. Peace, ToP-fan
