Charge the blockage with Love and it will dissolve.

I love the women and old man analogy. Dr. Morris in Path Notes has probably given the most open account of esotericism and the martial arts. Most instructors do not talk about.

Lmao! You crack me up fella.

Welcome to TDB. You'll find lots of martial arts and qigong aficionados here.

Chun Yi Lin is a skilled healer. I have a feeling he may be able to help you. http://www.springforestqigong.com/index.php/master-chunyi-lin

Anyone have knowledge of appropriate remedies for "chi sickness"? By that i am referring to when your completely burnt out energetically and your body is taking taking a significant amount of time to rewire itself.

Welcome to TDB. Your concern about sexual energy and the dantien? This area of practice is something of a passion for me, would be interested to hear your question and thoughts.

Meditation is definitely important, but your right, practices that stir and shake up the energy body and increase your voltage are key for growth.

I know a couple other Light Warriors whom hang out on TDB. Welcome.

Lmao!

You'll find plenty of thread on here talking about the "unpleasant" nature of AYP practices. Many systems of cultivation are talked on this forum, best of luck in your quest. Is there something in particular your looking for? -Welcome to TDB.

This topic can get unnecessarily complicated.....because the barrier between self and other is thinner than we think. We draw energy from everything all the time. Sun, Water, animals, plants....etc. Life consumes life in order to continually perpetuate itself....Lion Kings circle of life. Additionally we can draw energy from the cosmos, the earth and sky. Some systems of qigong and magick specialize in this. But in context of this topic of working with trees, that kind of transgressive attitude of "taking" energy is not appropriate and quite rude IMO. Approach trees and plants with an attitude of openness and joy and your awareness on the LDT. The path will guide you the rest of the way.

Very interesting, gonna toy with this.

I've meditated with many different trees, in all circumstances the trees grew stronger and healthier from the exchange. If your "taking" energy then i agree it may be harmful to the tree...i've never worked with this technique and don't really see the advantage of doing so. It's always been a balanced exchange of circulating and refining energy. Trees want to help you as we by our nature have a parasympathetic relationship. Nor have i ever had a feeling of being harmed by an exchange with a tree....in building a relationship through practicing internal work you will find the right tree for you to practice with....the path finds a way.

They way we react to people is a reflection of our own energy and the energy the person is emitting. A severely weak person may be intimidated by everyone and not even want to leave his house. People are powerful tools for cultivation, they will reflect your weaknesses back to you.

I recommend staying away from Mantak Chia, also bald heads are lots of fun, i shave it all off once a month.

My experience of LDT meditations is that the chi spills over and begins to saturate the rest of the system, effectively rejuvenating the entire body. If you feel your burning a bit too hot you can practice doing you LDT meditation with trees (get a nice grounding influence in there ). Just go up to them and invite them to practice with you. Cheers.

Went shopping at the thrift store today and while i was waiting in line and doing my internal purification practices....i thought of this thread. Take your practices everywhere you go, that's how you gotta roll.

The intellect is a barrier to truth.

Very cool youtube channel on magick. Nice interview.

It won't make sense until you get there. Keep practicing.

Never heard this quote before. Lovely.
