  2. Seven cervical (neck) vertebrae

    aha! Cool! Thanks! So the sun and moon would then be the top two vertebras(atlas and axis), right? Do you know which order the other planets would be in, in relation to the vertebras?
  3. Seven cervical (neck) vertebrae

    Funny! Two days ago I had a dream where the seven vertebras where explained to me as representing the 5 senses and two more functions(that I ofcourse dont remember). Nothing real esotheric, sorry, but still a relevant dream
  4. Wang Liping in Jinhua 2008

    oh...Im not shure if this is the same as Wang LiPing teaches. I never said that. I just saw somewhere that this is what Falun Gong is about, or atleast the 5th movement. I dont remeber where I read it... can search a little and see if I find it again.
  5. Wang Liping in Jinhua 2008

    I have a link of Hongzhi's flowing movents on another computer. My guess is it is more a spontaneous movement than a specific qigong. I also recently discovered that Falun, or the law wheel, actually refers to the microcosmic orbid. So Falun Gong is microcosmic orbit gong. But the secterism in Flaun Gong is still not so charming...

  9. Asceticism in Ch' an-chen Taoism

  14. Don't Know Where to go in Life?

    That crystal was freaking awsome! It was blinking!!! ...no, seriously, good message but why oh why does the messenger need to be such a clown? Or a parrot, or whatever he was? Are they clowns on other planets and dimensions? I know a lot of people from outer space ad higher dimensions and they all behave pretty normal
  15. Asceticism in Ch' an-chen Taoism

    I got through the other one. Great reading! Where do you get these articles YMWong? Will plough my way through this text at an other time...
  16. So what have I missed?

    hahaha, Patrick - Kunluners 1-0 T.K.O.!!!
  17. So what have I missed?

    Your not alone Patrick, the Kunluners fall over too
  18. So what have I missed?

    Welcome back Patrick! Somehow I thought of you when I saw this statue of a sailor doing Zhan Zhuang, drunken style qigong
  19. Wild Goose Qigong Classes

    Hello Kunlunountains! I have been wondering a long time about the connection between Soaring Crane, Wild Goose and Xing Shen Zhuang. What I read somewere online was that Pang He Ming created xing shen zhuang to correct some unwanted effects from soaring crane qigong. Do you know anything about this? What would you say is the difference between these three qigongs?
  20. Is a Guru/Master/etc needed?

    Ive tried many times to write something about all the romantic ideas about teachers that are out there. But Im not so articulate today so Ill just write: there is so many romantic ideas about teachers(mostly because of all the premature gurus) out there and they cloud our way to finding our real teachers.
  21. Seated Meditation Posture

    Hahahaha! wonderful! that quote made my day! Im going home to clock in many hours of stillness after work today
  22. Seated Meditation Posture

    40 minutes is not that bad, Mal! Most people cant go more than 3 minutes before some complaining bursts out of the stillness. This last 6 months Ive been doing Xing Shen Zhuang and that has definately increased my comfort in meditation and zhan zhuang. Because of too many practices Ive stopped working on the full lotus and just focus on sitting comfortably. And Ive also noticed that as Im entering stillness the whole body becomes very still. The only thing that moves is the belly. ...until my mind wanders, then the body becomes uncomfortable aswell. But when Im able to keep my attention in the stomach and on the breathing, and not wander off, then my body is completely still and comfortable too. I dont think its about "sitting through the pain". I think it is more about being still, and then the pain decreases. The more Im able to be still and relaxed, the less pain I feel.
  23. Starman returns

    Funny thing though... how kunlun seems to attract so many strange accusations. One say Max has been taken over by evil spirits, other say Max implants worms that takes over people, and then there is all the talk of reptilians from outer space. Any other strange stuff? To me this is an indication of too much astral energy. But is it kunlun who is too astral or does it trigger other peoples astral energies?
  24. Is a Guru/Master/etc needed?

    20 lifetimes??? You're too kind Yes. Probably ALL those who claim sudden revelation has had extencive training beforehand. For MANY liftimes. With MANY teachers. But they go into the historybooks as someone lucky, blessed, special or divine. When in reality what was needed was hard work through disipline, groundshaking traumas, crisis and deep fear. ...and good teachers.
