  1. Spontaneous Movement : Form and Formless

    Max and Jenny are afraid of what people will think of them through their internet "Kunlun" students. Opposable Paradoxes Where is the Ruler? Measure Carefully Pseudosattvas Your helping Kunlun? By policing the free and spontaneous expresssion of other "students" under the guise of strengthening a free and spontaneous spirit? Useful information is shared around timeless campfires. This is one of them. This Forum is a campfire. An interactive one. Your not offering help, your tugging on an invisable leash while we're all sitting around the fire sharing. This demonstrates the power of video in representing physical information. If it did not your teachers would not place a false stigma around it. Why else would spontaneously free communication have to be ok'd by someone? Perhaps you are acting as an apologist for something you have a gut feeling about?
  2. Spontaneous Movement : Form and Formless

    I would still like to see a small demonstration of what any of you have learned. (Kunlun) I've given this some thought. Even a fundamental understanding of Wuji in any of the Taoist arts should produce demonstratable results. This is not subjective. It's a biological reality. I am lead to believe your instructors are ashamed of your abilities, so much so that they will not allow you to post them on a public website. Now is the time to question. Being embarressed of your students is a disgrace to the teacher, not the system. Observe. Film simply does not lie. In form or formlessness, wuji connects it all. http://gordelpus.com/jenny/lhbfshort.rm Questions in movement. Answers in stillness.

    Speechless at this point.
  4. Spontaneous Movement : Form and Formless

    Dissappointing. Great PR. Spontaneous Police.
  5. Spontaneous Movement : Form and Formless

    There is no such thing as teaching a health art that does not bolster a persons natural defenses.

  8. False realizations

    lol ....kinda like when the west hijacked zero to come up with math that almost works, until it breaks down into infinite numbers.
  9. I've started playing the didgeridoo

    Sweet! Try pointing it at a friends spine standing or laying on their belly and go up and down and closer and farther (focusing the standing accoustic wave)... its a GREAT way to get some laughs and it's a sound massage. If you play with vowel sounds you get some neat shapes.
  10. How do we teach peace and harmony?

  11. Xeno, Your life book that you shared from your heart made a difference in my life. Just so you know. Thanks. Spec
  12. False realizations

    freeform that is everything and nothing i ever wanted to say
  13. Sun Worship

    Putting yourself in a position of alignment with planetary rotation is worshipping satan? hah! Please. Even Jesus's face shown like the sun. Sun Salutations are traditionally done in the morning and evening facing the son. Gazing is the deeper method, the last 8 minutes because the sun isn't there anymore pushing behind the waves. grn flsh. Surinamiskar Vinyasa sequences are very similar to the Iron Buffalo of chinese tradition. Strengthen the bands while cycling the water. The sun saltuation sequences are where "hindu pushups" originate. Used in so many schools and styles theres no way to list. TcXUwGE2je8 cd_eTupTCbI The reason I post Iyangars teacher is because people sweat Iyangar, but don't realize his teacher Krisnamacharya taught many gurus different "styles"... all stemming from a common "root"... this is an interesting phenomenon of a cooregraphic type skill. Most people "specialize" in a style, but in order to be good any anything, the core has to be developed. He taught them what the individual needed, not what "he" thought was best, but what was best for the student. I digress, anyways, love is worship, if you love what you do, your worshipping when you practice. thats my pennys worth.

  17. False realizations

    good thread
  18. False realizations

    I went back to reread this point and was qued to come back and add here that my teacher reminded me that each experience is unique to itself, and we never "achieve" these states rather we let go and the mind naturally balances w/ body to sync. Then whatever happens happens. Entrainment can suggest expansion (dialation) or contraction (focusing) of the mind through a variety of doorways, (frequencies?), but the ability to tune into the people around you will prove far more useful then spending time/energy tuning them out. stories and songs store information. sooner or later there will be an external experience which reinforces your internal experience and your life "story" unfolds another layer. This is where spiritual practice coincides with destiny in my free opinion. By breaking through the veil and merging with environment. Meditation in motion. In stillness drawing the senses inward. If you don't say something now you might not have the chance to in the future. Use metaphor as layering, direct words when needed, lead by example, suggest common truths, don't forget the frosting and sprinkles. Ultimately wordless communication sets verbal tone. Usually you get yourself into situtations blindly, then highnd sight is always 20/20. Then you remember to forget, then you fall into a rabbit hole and wonder if you'll remember how to get out. When you do get out, you want to fall in again, but you forgot that you had to chase a rabbit to find the whole to begin with. Of course. That is why it's important to consider life a "journey" ie you are walking a "path". the point of cultivation is to return safely home. You'll have some stories to share I'm sure.

    Spirit Ape. Exactly. Freestyle is Free Style. Something cultivated that is not based on words?
  21. Growing with the Tao

    Best chi from germinated sprouts. Use a meat grinder and make a paste for making home made chi cakes kinda like cliff bars, but chi bars. Sprouts are a natural superfood! Xeno, nice setup@!
  22. Jerry Alan Johnson

    Had the chance to look at one of his compilation medical chi gung books and was impressed with the breadth and depth as well. Expensive though. I do not own any of his work because of the prices.
