Thank you 2012. That is some good advice, why didnt I think of this before? The Israeli defense skills--Krav Maga! Through in a little grappling and I'm good to go! So what is the best way to make your opponent toast? Rip his eyeball out?

This is soooooo true. I could just master Mantak Chia's Tai Chi Chi Kung 1, fuckit, learn the principles behind chi kung and practice proper rooting--how to transfer the earth force...nobody can fuck with you, maybe add a little bagua on top, just for fun (walking in circles is fun, no?) and you are good. Im going to forget all this kung Fu unless it helps me align cosmic forces....hmmm....maybe I will invest in this video... Cosmic Tour Ba-Gua (VHS) Newly Released By Master Hua-Ching Ni "Cosmic Tour Ba-Gua has healing powers similar to Tai Chi, but the energy flow is quite different. Ba-Gua consists of a special kind of walking which corrects the imbalance and disorder of "having a head heavier than the rest of the body." Walking in a large circle over an open ground with the image of a flying bird or a swimming fish, Cosmic Tour reduces the congestion of our modern, intellectual lives and brings the energy down to the feet in order to improve circulation." http://www.taoofwellness.com/Merchant2/mer...duct_Code=VCOSM Sounds cool. I best go to a live instructor and learn Bagua tho, right? That would be a good idea. This sifu I know seems to be pretty good, too. He studied Liu Seong Kung Fu from a Grandmaster Reeders? Half Dutch/Chinese royalty... should be fun, also does the Northern Wu style... I wonder if I should bother with that Cosmic Tour Ba-Gua or just go straight to this live teacher.

Thank you for clearing that up. So multi grain is shit, on par with white grain. And whole grain is not SOOO bad because it has some fiber in it. So unless you can afford to get all your carbs from fruits, veggies, roots, nuts, etc etc...then the least worst (of the evils grains!) is whole wheat.

ARE YOU ON CRACK?

Anyone else tried the brain enhancer? I am thinking about getting it.

What is wrong with vitamin supps? And how is that brain enhancer working?

Anyone work with this dude before? He teaches te Tai Chi program at Naropa University, where I cam considering studying: Bataan Faigao BA, University of San Carlos (Philippines) MA, New York University MFA, The Naropa Institute Bataan Faigao began studying t'ai-chi ch'uan with Grand Master Cheng Man-ching in 1968 and for the next seven years practiced under his guidance. Bataan has been teaching t'ai-chi ch'uan since 1976. He is a full-time faculty member at Naropa University and chair of the Traditional Eastern Arts department. He is also director of the Rocky Mountain t'ai-chi ch'uan foundation.

I came accross a taoist master who recommends this: http://www.metabolictypingonline.com/ http://www.healthexcel.com/ Anyone familiar with it? Everything is different for different people, its all relative. If I dont eat some grains I feel like I will miss out on a lot of energy. There is so much about what NOT to eat that it leaves one feeling, well, hungry. Is there a difference between whole wheat and multigrain? Perhaps multi is better? Like they got this 12 grain bread. How come rye is good?

I dont know about that, thats some pretty heady shit. All of WIlbers shit is very heady. I agree with Voice, all of this is so out there, it is hard to apply. Its so heady. But when Wilber talks about the chakras and dreams and yoga I find it very enlightening...sometimes I think wow, this guy is a genius. Other times I am like, wow, that is too much upper brain and not lower brained...overall his stuff is awesome, and I definetly think he is ahead of his time, now, if only I had an outline of what to literaly apply to my own life from his teachings...gotta listen to the rest of this (about 15 hour?) audio book, peace.

Yo that was some of the illist martial arts I have ever seen...Jackie Chan style jumping around flipping, I wonder where I could learn that, other than Canada... -
What is the best book on buddhism? If it covers esoteric energy meditations, perhaps that one would be the best? Give me one short book and one long, if you please. Thank You

good question. ni hua ching is authentic, i am unfmailiar with is books though. I would recommend the book Choosing Life by Michael Frost PHD, he studied with Ni hua Ching, mantak chia and many other masters...if you want to know the truth about tai chi and everything, this dude is the cutting edge, i beleive. thank you

I think the 3 amigos should include using a LOW horse stance with tendon changing perhaps as well, moving from lumbars. Also the turtle stance is key! (Turtle is the foundation for iron shirt training!) Then, after you finish the "ninja dancing 3" (breathing, movement, awareness) freestyle qi gong dance: getting low with squating, ass shaking movements. Do some streches. Now relax and wash your body with chi from your hands, massaging the chi down from the forehead/eyes/head, into the neck, into the trunk all the way down to feet, dont skip a (psoas) spot! Leaving you feeling in ecstacy. Meditate with a rat.

There is a new master in the healing community if you do not already know about him, his name is Dirk Oellibrandt. This man, who coauthored cosmic healing 2 with master Chia, has drawn on all the healing modalities in the west from chiropractic, rolfing to cranio sacral...and combined these things with the eastern modalities: shiatsu, chi nei tsang...its perfect. http://www.4dimensionallife.com http://www.taohealing.com/advanced_4dim_bodywork.html The training they planned for May was cancled and moved to January, there is a beginer retreat in september and the first year training in january...i beleive....more details to come im gonna go try primodial chi kung

-
http://www.tibetanqigong.org/book.html This dvd cost $300 If you are serious about being a healer, however, consider buying it with me. If we get 4 people, thats 75 each. This guy is a serious Qi gong Master.

I have all winn's videos except for this one and perhaps the sun and moon alchemy. I wonder if its worth it? Does he do squating? All the best Chi kung has to have some fucken squating and WINN never does.
-
Yeah, Dirk is God. I have two cds with lectures and two VHS with chi kung and the basic bodywork treatment/other goodies...if anyone want to borrow/trade/buy....HIGHLY recommended.
