Wow you sure did expand it! Thanks for making the new thread; I'll read it over the next few days. (-:
-
Increase the flow through yourself, maybe? Imagine a kid with a squirt-gun trying to affect a high-pressure stream from a fire hose... it just aint gonna happen. Okay, okay, I'll hush now & leave it to those who have a clue. Warm regards (-:
-
It does, yes, good analogy! Many times it's brought awareness of a problem or situation before my eyes or ears have seen or heard it. Very informative, this. Great post, TM.

Brian, made sense to me (which is no great endorsement ) Cheya, hi, on the rare occasions I perceive the energies you describe - I just watch them from a distance; most are not big enough or strong enough to notice, and those that are dont get close enough to affect the flow going through me... so I guess I'm no help at all with Psychic Defense 101 as I've never had to defend! Sorry! (-:

Yeppers & well said.

Daeluin, wonderful post. Would you be willing to copy it over, as is, into a new thread? Much there for us to explore, very much. Well met. (-:

Hi sagebrush I think on the front page of each forum is a button to start a new threaf/topic - but your posts about your energy work are most welcome here, as are you. (-: Thanks for your replies!
-
Seems my question wasn't that good cause I was asking for your idea re "Dao is in the shit" - and your answer addressed how to get or stay out of it!! Which turned out to be pretty cool - as that works for both, heh. Thanks for sharing all the words, and letting us peek into the ideas of a masterful mio. (-: Edit: typo

TM, re finding tao in wrong places (pepsi, lol), understood. Dao is in the shit. (ZZ) Some say - yes, it is, so anything goes! I say - yes, it is, so it's okay that I landed in it.. and now how the hell do I get out?? What do you say?

TM, thanks for your reply and methinks you could be right. Also, your words re self-criticism brought to mind the frustration (more the lost-ness) I see in too many seekers caused by a not-small concept found in too many places: that one must do ____ to find Tao. Doesn't matter what the ____ is that is being proposed. The way that message is 'shaped' reinforces the (incorrect) idea that Tao is separate, something to be 'found'. You and I are way past that, but this twisting by others, to market a method, reinforces only the continuation of the method and does little to help the seeker. Gotta convince someone they're sick before you can sell them a cure. Pfffttt. Well okay, that was my rant for the day. (-:

Hiya TM (-: I was hoping you'd join in as you are by far, imo, one of the most versed in these aspects of energy cultivation on this site. Bang on, too, re this is about all aspects of cultivation - which is a pretty big bag... but maybe we can confine the words to a small sack that can be extrapolated out. I get the gist of your idea re 'admire'. For me, though, it's not a matter of either/or, i.e., either I'm 'content' with who I am (your 'admire') or I want to improve my version of me. For me, it's both, at the same time. I am content with who I am - and - I'd still like to lose 5 pounds, lol. What that boils down to is this: I work towards losing that bit of extra weight, and dont beat myself up if I fail. I prefer a weed-free garden, and when they appear (as they always do, heh) I just yank them out without stress or anger. Good exercise! Big picture & little picture, same time. I have no problem with any form of cultivation, or with those who practice. To each their own way, eh? And I like that you, and others, graciously share your ideas with us all. Warmest regards (-: . . Edit: Typos. Typing on little phone sucks, heh.

Thanks, Jeff! Reading about your energy work has been very entertaining.

Each will have their own definition for sure; mine would be: Energy work is when one intentionally attempts to move or direct spiritual energy, sometimes called chi/ki, in any direction, in any manner, for any purpose.

if you believe in it, it will exist or else nothing really exist?

Or perhaps dwell in all worlds simultaneously, as they are unboundaried, in full support of the whole. Or so it seems to me. warm regards -
Why sorry? Are you going to share it with us? That would be a fun topic, imo.

You betcha it moves - right through me Mine is the path of WuDao; I have no practice. I ride the energy as it rises and recedes, without intent. For me to direct or manipulate or shield or transmit would be extraneous... so, I dont 'do' energy work - but I enjoy reading about your and others' experiences and ideas about it; very much appreciated! warmest regards
-
Thanks for pinning it! Mine is the No vote. Surprised? Warmest regards

That's fine; go rest. (-:

Objective reality: Karl and Brian drag their dance into every thread. Sujective reality: Usually interesting and informative, but it's getting old. Get a room, okay? -
Water is always in motion; sometimes just appears stiller than others... but always returning to the source it never left. The essence of that return is delightfully captured in the poem, eh?

Very nice D.A.D., very nice indeed (-;

That works for me. That, and chocolate. (-: -
Dancing in the balance, floating in the Dao. warmest regards (-:
