I just happened to come across this and it made me laugh. It is in Kentucky's state capital of all places too. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=frankfort+ky+high+st&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x884274b6a70e708f:0x59e135749053ae01,High+St,+Frankfort,+KY&gl=us&ei=5_4mTuquOoK20AG30t3NCg&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CBoQ8gEwAA

I love this guy, his book and what he has done. I find it funny and sad that he was showing a way to farm that is very effective (and natural), yet everyone that came to 'study' it only wanted to look at one small aspect of it instead of the whole picture. This year I am starting to implement his methods. I will see how it goes. I also like how everyone says we can't feed all the people on Earth. Yet I drive around and see houses sitting on acres and acres of grass. What do they do with all that grass in their yards? They mow it. No we probably can't feed all the people in the world with this kind of mind set. Yet if we actually used most of the land we have to actually grow food we would have more than enough to feed everyone.

Cultivate it!

Life is much more enjoyable and beautiful when we are not judging it. This is not only great about music and entertainment, but really helps when you are in situations that you can't really avoid, such as work, being stuck in traffic, natural disasters, etc. By judging we are creating conflict, but when we stop creating conflict all the time we can relax and really enjoy life.

If anyone would like to learn more about libertarianism and more indepth explanation about the ideas and solutions you can read, or listen to, The Libertarian Manifesto for free here: http://mises.org/rothbard/newlibertywhole.asp It has been said that libertarianism is based on Taoism.

The Federal Department of Education is a complete waste of money. It is a fairly new program, 1980's I think off the top of my head. The States did just fine without it and education has not improved any since the Federal department was formed. Some could argue it has gotten worse. Personally I think that the whole education system in the US is out dated. I think a lot of money could be saved and education improved if they got innovative with the technology we have and possible improvements in the future. With what we have now with all the educational tv programs and available access to the internet and libraries, why do kids need to go to a school building most days of the week all day long? I know that I personally, along with my kids, have learned a lot of useful things just with these resources. As for corporate regulation, is what we have right now so good? The laws are written with corporate influence to stack things in their favor so it becomes legally difficult on the competition. Where has all the small businesses gone? In most places in the US big corporations are the only option.

That HAS to be a joke. So people who try to eat healthy have a disorder? LOL It sounds like the big food corporations are starting to worry about people not wanting to buy their junk food any more.

I have liked Ron Paul for awhile now. I agree with most of what he says. Freedom is a good thing.

Mantak Chia's methods are safe as long as you study and practice all of what he teaches, with the exception of the million dollar point finger lock. Even he says this is not really helpful and mostly for historical reference. Winn no longer even teaches it and suggests against it. Don't bother with it. Anyway, most people get into trouble with Chia's practice because they don't follow what Chia teaches. They obsess about not ejaculating and strive to never ejaculate. This not what Chia teaches! Depending on your age, health and experience you should still ejaculate, just not every time. As long as you pay attention to what Chia teaches and especially if you are following a practice to balance your overall energy you should be fine with Chia's teachings.

If conventional tests show nothing is wrong (and maybe nothing is), then I would suggest finding a Qigong master in your area to discuss this with. They can give you more insight into the qi possibilities and what to do about it. Also practicing some kind of qi exercise could be a good start. What do you mean by a red branch on your eye? On your eye ball? Like your eye is blood shot? Have you had this looked at?

Not everyone thinks Chia's methods are harmful. Many people have had good experiences using them. That is not to say that they cannot cause problems because there is the potential if practiced incorrectly. Why were you trying to go over 10 days without ejectulating? Of Chia's material I have studied he says that a man in his 20's should ejaculate once a week. This seems to be where most that have problems with the practice go wrong. Chia does not say to never ejaculate again! In fact not ejaculating is not all that important to the practice really. You could ejaculate every time and still gain benefits as long as you are cultivating your energy, which is one of the important aspects of it. The important thing with such practices is to listen to your body. If your body says to ejaculate then ejaculate. If it says not this time, then don't. If you are wanting to focus on celibacy then Chia's method may not be the best practice.

Anything, has the potential to be dangerous if done improperly. Since this particular thread is about ejaculation, I will focus on that. Long term retention is not at all something someone inexperienced and young should be practicing. However I think that is part of where the problem lies for some that pick up this practice. Part of the blame is on the tone of Multi-Orgasmic Man. Guidelines are given about how often to ejaculate, briefly, in the book while talking highly of not ejaculating. Some take this as ejaculation is bad and try to avoid it as much as possible. Instead of following the actual practice, they take this new found idea of orgasm without ejaculation to an unbalanced and unhealthy level. If someone is completely new and totally out of touch with their bodies, Mult-Orgasmic Man may not be the best place to start. That does not make the practice invalid. Walker, no need to change your name unless you just really want to do so. I am not a certified instructor. I have been practicing Chia's Sexual Kung Fu, or my own variation of it, for over ten years. It has been a very helpful practice in my life. So I know that while the practice may not be for everyone it can be a very beneficial practice. It is also why I think it is very important for someone having problems with the practice to seek out someone trained in the Healing Tao, or at the very least TCM or Qigong. If they got into this problem while trying to practice on their own, they really need someone else there to help them get out of it.

If I buy a product and have problems with it, I would first contact their customer service help line for the company for that product. Who would know more about the problem I am having with the product than those trained to know about the product. If one is having problems with a particular practice, such as this, why not contact someone that has been trained in the practice? They would most likely know the most about the problem and how to help. Why should someone trust an anonymous person on a forum over someone who is trained and certified in the practice? That is not to discredit anyone here on the forums. I have read much and know that there are some very knowledgeable people on here. Don't take it that I am not compassionate towards their dilemma. I want them to get the help that is needed to correct their problem. I just think the best way to do that would be to get in touch with someone that has experience with it. No one has to continue the practice if it is not right for them, but they need to correct their problem first.

How many that have had problems with Sexual Kung Fu as taughty by Chia in his books actually ever attempted to contact a Healing Tao Instructor as directed to do so in the books? How many have not had problems and never came to a forum to discuss not having problems?
