Taoist point of view towards sauna therapy
johndoe2012 replied to oatisnottao's topic in Daoist Discussion
I use infrared sauna in the winter time to release bodily tension. At home I have an infrared lamp. Pointing it to my lower back for just 10-15 min increases kidney qi and the whole body relaxes. -
If you lost your motivation 😊

No worries or anxiety about stirring jing here. No confusion on my part. Expectation does build up energy in anticipation for future events. So you get disappointed if expectation is not met, happy if met. This is part of suffering. No expectations = no problem.
-
The problem is expectation, not desire. Here there is no longer a frustration if desire is not met. Just peace and quietness. Awareness has no problem with desire. Look at identity when seeing frustration and expectation. Then the problem goes away.

In a zen dojo they focused on ming men not LDT when in meditation. I wondered about it but it worked out fine.

I want to learn Loving-Kindness Meditation(metta)

The Reiki version from the book I linked to in this thread is fine but cannot release deep ego stuff to reach Awakening/Nirvana/Emptiness but some emotional / mental release can be done. The other day I zapped a virus in both me and my son in less than one minute using Bak Fu Sunn Yee Gung qi and this definitely cannot be done with Reiki with such speed and depth.

I had accumulated resentment, it was completely unbearable so I had to forgive. Hopefully someone will find it useful

You are talking about Sutra Buddhism which can go on for life times. Now we have Tantra, Mahamudra and Dzogchen which are faster paths. From "Modern Buddhism: The Path of Compassion and Wisdom - Volume 2 Tantra" by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

There's also Alex Kozma's Neigong exercises course

FREE Healing & Activation for Neidan (Xiao Yao Pai)
johndoe2012 replied to effilang's topic in Systems and Teachers of
Two sessions and I understand DDJ from a much deeper perspective than before. Intellectual vs more of a living-breathing thing. Also MCO opened up more than before plus deeper connection to the Divine. No wild movements so far, my energy system has very few blockages. Thanks 🥰- 88 replies

Meditate/contemplate on each chapter in DDJ.

FREE Healing & Activation for Neidan (Xiao Yao Pai)
johndoe2012 replied to effilang's topic in Systems and Teachers of
If you have no healing experience you might think it is nuts that Christ energy suddenly comes in. In fact anything can happen during a session where we are open to the Divine. The last part of a healing protocol from VortexHealing is to be open to the Divine and let it do its thing without interference.- 88 replies

What is your source for that?

The storm intuition was just 'let's do this instead of that' The money situation was very direct. It came from strong knowing just as I woke up from sleep. Like somebody warned of me impending doom. These days I can also feel things happen before they actually do, that's just energy currents changing. Sometimes difficult in interpersonal relationships. Important here is not to take things personally, even when pain arises.
-
Lol. Yes difficult to let go... If very difficult this meditation is not enough. Although I find it powerful in the sense that it dissolved part of the sense of self. Trauma can run very deep. I still carry wounds from something that happened more than 40 years ago. Letting go all the time in different ways to be free of that.
-
Yes. Dumb forgiveness, becoming a push over and people pleaser just to get peace.
-
You are right but what is the alternative? Holding on to resentment towards the other destroys your peace of mind. Better to let go.
-
I have avoided big storms and one time when I didn't follow it, I lost a lot of money.
-
I sometimes get the feeling 'do this' without knowing where it comes from. Not ego I think, more a sense of things are changing, follow the impersonal flow of life. It can feel very energetic, like if I were to do the opposite, my whole body would go numb.
-
From that video I heard two people discuss their practice as something beautiful. They were excited and enthusiastic. Reminds me of this from Soh from Awakening to Reality Amazement, beauty, love, oneness.

Short or Long form, doesn't matter as long as Taiji principles are followed, the result is the same. As for the first two questions maybe dwai is more experienced and can answer those.

Whether it will lead to some sort of neidan-ish results I don't know but Yang Taiji follows the Taiji principles and if you read this book https://www.amazon.com/Juice-Radical-Energetics-Scott-Meredith/dp/1478260696/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?crid=X59H7SRGGGIG&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.H7odmSS6lk4gkAi8vYk36Tm-OqeW5J4vmBhJxzDm0HZs9YviF7axeNAbQkb9jQS9_hYExt-oJ3vFKgLUbBT0TJ8H_b5-tmOmo_-mtclK4b3YhrSGGD31c7PgmEyps2SHyEnDY67AHPvFOZyxdr7p87GiGnnSUaleL6Wq9kUQ9TMAN5pD11K5VkQEbe-cYLrZtpPMUXnOworwaB8CJqBexQ.YVJgpZswxfA0TlHmj670VsMOp2K3CSusGG4w-zIuRrk&dib_tag=se&keywords=Scott+meredith&qid=1725218000&sprefix=scott+meredith%2Caps%2C678&sr=8-2 The energetics will come alive sooner rather than later.
