If you read the book he really didn't believe in God-nominally a christian. However, after talking to what he percieved as God, he started attending church. It's in the post.

Fascinating! Good to see you weren't chasing power back in in 2004. My apologies...amazing to think Kostas had two students with similar names or someone was just pretending to be you. At any rate, it seems people are only interested if the person in question has super powers not insight.

Yeah, I know he supposedly liked to chase the ladies! He also had a loyalty to his teacher [reportedly] and I forgot how many people hated the guy. It's not about him reaching level four or anything just his experiences! Birds of a feather...

READ THE POST!

No thank you. Only if it's meant to be...that's one of the lessons...I guess. I could be wrong.

Even a roach can teach. From the lowliest insect to a noble king one can learn from. Not necessarily talking about teachings but revealations on God,karma,reincarnation, and destiny. Even Judas,not to mention a honourable Peter could expound on their experiences with Jesus.

You misinterpret...the purpose is to teach. Andreas has much to say and Andreas had first hand knowledge of Mo-pai and John Chang-see Blair video.Truth is light.

After much deliberation I've decided to share what I consider a pearl of great price with the tao bum community, a correspondence pdf which contains many insights on chi,jing,dantiens, ecetera. I've had this for awhile now but a comment from another taobum member has spurred me to action on sharing.His words were''I don't like people who want things publicly but then when they are bestowed with the information...all of a sudden they want it kept secret'' The course came with videos from China, some from the taoist White Cloud temple in China.Those I won't share because I feel they are kinda sacred-plus a bitch too upload. The[if ordered] course would be well worth your time, it covers Damo's classic/kong jing/ secret smile demonstrated at White Cloud temple, plus others. Some feel the real treasure is in the file I've uploaded however and not the videos.If you understand and master the material in it you will be way ahead of the game. My philosophy is... study from the masters or second man on the totem pole who is willing to share his knowledge rather than having you wait and wait for years. This is what Bruce Lee did[talent exchange] take the elevator not just the stairs! To the new bums read everything you can on qi-gung and study Spring Forest/Robert Peng's stuff plus others.See, when you become conversant with the terminology of a field and its axioms then you can rightly discern the wheat from the chaff. Remember, you have to read the lines before reading between the lines.You should know the rules before you break the rules.You must have the fundamentals first...then discernment follows. Perhaps this file will spark dialogue which I love too much as Unnamed teacher in China has pointed out.I know from nlp, analysis entertains while application rewards. Still dialogue serves a dialectical purpose anyway...helping to refine truth.After all, times and conditions change,everything in the universe is in motion. May it be well with the bums!

Well, several things: I used it consistently, almost made the full two weeks!,it is very time consuming in the begining.Two hours a[wait, after three days I only did 40 minutes] day,on each dantien, and the breathing patterns can be demanding. A friend told me about someone he knows who went to Indonesia and studied directly with Lukman.He started seeing flashing lights before seeing Lukman.This is something I also experience. Although I have a mind machine so maybe it is an after effect. The first few days I couldn't sleep more than three or four hours a night. Really increases tempeture,by the end you are forced to remove clothes due to sweating. After taking a break from it, I just returned a few days ago and again problems with sleeping due to energy. After the first two weeks you can maintain your level with just twenty or fifteen minutes of practice. I never got into the mantras and such. How long did you do it? Did you use the mudra?

Yes if it is master lukman..they say his system is the basis for all the tenaga dalaam courses. Lots of hyperbole on that site but yes the techniques are very poweful for gathering and packing vital energy. Each dantien is isolated for fueling. Also secret mudra.

Actually you hold and contract the area you're breathing chi into.It can make you feel as though you have a fire going up and down your central channel.Pulsing abdomen too.

Thanks! I don't know if it's the most[i'll try] powerful...have you tried triyada's breathing patterns? They'll have you jumping out of bed like a young Jackie Chan or Tony Ja.Lots of yang chi!

Here's some more info for you! http://www.yellowbamboohk.com/yellowbamboo...20of%20Aji.html

Nice, but I don't see the kong jing video or the demo of amazing feats.

Thanks guys I hoped you all would like the manual. The video colecton covers some remarkable feats performed by men and women: like standing on two raw eggs without cracking them,placing a finger into an electric fan without it getting chopped off. Absorbing/regulating electricity from a 220 volt battery while it flows into a light bulb.I mentioned Spring Forest,Robert Peng, but not ken Cohen's course,which is wonderful. By studying his course you'll be able to make many distinctions. For example, he talks about the index and middle finger being extremely important for projecting chi. If you cafefully look at the Bill Moyer's video of the master using empty force you'll see him[ma shr?] using his midddle index finger,although he tries too hide it. Cohen's course is like a college course and he covers taoist sexual energy practices,big dipper energy exercises, taoist chakra protection exercises,deer/antler, qi-gung walking, multiple universal posts positions, ecetera. Be well!

Many internal arts masters such as Wang Shu Jinn could break opponents spines by bouncing them as yo-yo's with his belly.He could also emit fa-jing and commonly took on the toughest young men well into his eighties.The question is do you think these true masters with authentic neigong could hold there own against a Randy Couture or Chuck Liddell? Ya-mu, Santiago,unnamed teacher in China ''in the know'' any opinions? Also not being trained in internal arts[i do have a dvd with the tai-qi form] but so-called hard external arts I have a bias towards reality based fighting, yet I relentlessly train qi-gung forms since they help me recover from weight lifting. Am I correct in assuming my prowess with hard styles is enhanced by incorporating the qi-gung forms, if all my fighting mechanics are right and exact? My working reality is based on the logic if it helps with weight lifting why not fighting as well?

Well...the HIV comparison is somewhat relevant since you,Santiago, and Ya Mu have warned others about the dangers of improper energy practices.In the same vein that a teacher warns students about the dangers of unprotected sex.Goldisheavy caught that.That said, everything else you wrote is wonderfully crafted and kinda profound.

I'll try but...no promises other individuals picked up the lie and only now am I turning the tide by new individuals getting to know me. I have dirt like every human but mine is small and others are jeaulous because of that. Guys are angry that women want to talk and have sex with me, women become angry that I just won't sleep with them. This is compounded by the fact I know martial arts and recite a mantra[come and die devils! or I crush my enemies!] while meditating sometimes. Also I believe the only thing necessary for evil to prevail is to do nothing. Lest you think me to heartless I also meditate on giving to the poor and helping others. The anger was very great, tearing up my knuckles on a heavy bag without using protection and it kept me up a few times robbing me of sleep...punching into bedroom walls.Then I stared reciting: work through the anger,work through the pain,relax,relax.It helped.But when I do neigong exercises the anger comes back...perhaps because of the energy.

Ya mu, I'm curious I've had different encounters with seers, one was right on target the other was just picking up information that was inaccurate, let me explain.Someone started a rumor about me and I became indignant and it started to fester in my soul[thought life] especially since I attempt to live a righteous life. Well, this woman said[i over heard her]wait'' I'm getting something'' Now she was wrong in actuality but I had been thinking about others saying this shit about me. Which led me to think perhaps some people see into the astral realm or the thought forms that surround certain individuals. A kind of telepathy but not true prophetic insight.What do you think? Any quick pointers for cloaking information? Chunny Lynn of spring forest instructed us to close thumb and index finger to seal energy within the body and keep others from stealing it. He also said it changes the color of the aura. Be well!

This is interesting! Last summer I practiced chi gung every mourning at 5;00 a.m.Spring Forest then Peng's stuff, ken Cohen's, sometimes with magnets attached to my dantien.Well, once while doing laundry at a public place since my dryer wasn't working. A lady sensed my qi- and kept staring at me. Daring me to indicate that I had knowledge of chi- kung. Another person reconized my chi field from far away saying that guy has a lot of chi! He was from China studying at the University of Chicago.Once while walking in hyde park I encountered an elderly gentleman who placed his hand around his dantien and smiled at me.

Guys I can't talk to much about it but...the story about Chang and Tyson is true! Tyson got put under! Just one case though. Thank you, Ya mu for a kind and honest response.

Enouch. Seriously. If you followed up a fraction of the links and information posted on this forum already, you would know the answer to that question. There is no shortage of information out there. Go and do the work yourself. Stop and think, and spend sometime doing that, rather than just posting up endless new threads. The answers you find for yourself are infinitely more valuable than the answers people give to you. Yeah after I wrote it I kinda realized it was pointless.After all this is a forum on which we discuss fa-jing, people jumping over houses,putting Mike Tyson under, also the beneficial health effects of qi-gung.If it works for those things why not fighting? It's just before embarking onto a path[internal arts] I'd like some certainty about the results of said path, especially when the internal arts can take years to have mastery.And since I already know how to fight wasting time on developing chi fighting effects which might not work on strangers is losing time and delusional. Experience is king yet it doesn't always have to be your experience, after all I don't need to contract hiv to know its treadful effects.Parents,teachers give others the benefit of their wisdom based on experience yet somtimes a child will not listen only to realize later that the parent was correct.A path of experience based upon definite results, like modern western disciplines is what I seek. I know there is no ultimate fighting art it all depends on circumstance/time-ha! maybe the chi -fighting effect is the same. If so, given the nature of the claim it can only be proven subjectively and demonstrated objectively.SoI get your point.The question on a internal arts forum would be tai-chi versus bagua! Just kidding. By the way, o greater font of knowledge my threads aren't endless...actually only 25-30!

Here's a blog that deals with all sorts of mind programming for goals. Check out the sections dealing with hypnosis /silva mind control and others for help with new year goals. This particular write up deals with the great benefit of gamma waves on the mind. Becareful of too much though since a overabundance of gamma has been linked to schizo behaviour.Also recall Mo pie guy experience with gamma waves! http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=98 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=24 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=139 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=26 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=36 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=45 http://www.mindupdate.com/?p=95

What about the second question regarding the efficacy of using qi-gung forms to supplement hard styles as opposed to learning from scratch a new[internal] system? 2. This has already been discussed to death. You want answers? Go out and do the leg work, meet the people and do the training. The endless fantasising so beloved of internet forums is totally and utterly pointless. What about the second question regarding the efficacy of using qi-gung forms to supplement hard styles as opposed to learning from scratch a new[internal] system?

No one has a thought...I did mean for anyone to respond.
