Criminals or those with bad intentions cannot hurt these wannabe Sages & Lao Tzu's. They have no qualms telling one and all that anybody with bad intentions wont bother them or how they will become invisible the moment trouble arises ha ha ha. Well look at the the sexual & physical abuse endured by tibetan and burmese monks. Why didnt buddha or their cultivation level protect them ? So there goes that ridiculous theory . Oh thats right....it was their karma right ? Thats the common reply at these fairy seminars. The best ones are those who say that you cannot demonstrate it...but it will be there when you need it rofl.

Heres another newbie quote... Craving powers & psychic ability are all Low level tricks, parlour tricks, blah blah blah. Yet those very same people cannot even demonstrate the skills they term tricks & "low level"......so how possibly could they ever attain a high level when they cant even perform the basic low level tricks ? The blind leading the blind.

Heres another one of "Their" ridiculous Quotes...........When The Student is ready The Master Appears rofl. They Quote classics but dont understand them, Speak in riddles like Lao Tzu, and give advice like they are buddha. The newbie qigong syndrome is in full effect here gentleman !

Amusing comments cow considering both of my parents are not westerners. Perhaps its you who ought to be more accepting of others and their opinions. Nothing personal.

Sorry if i hit a nerve.

Whats wrong with wanting powers in the first place ? The only reason i even began training was to become more powerful and superhuman like. I certainly did not start for any other benefit except my own. Supernatural powers seemed frowned upon (usually by those who dont have them or never seen) and we are called selfish and wordly for wanting them. But those same people advertise these skills in seminars,and weekend qigong courses. Ask for a demo,and its stricly out of the question. You will really here the sh** start to flow then. Many of the greatest masters in history only started training because they seen or heard about someones elses skill or super power. If you dont like power or martial arts then your in the wrong forum IMO. The qigong and martial arts community have been invaded by newage spiritualist crap and they should return where they come from.

ROFL

The next one is around 9 minutes,

Remember this thread ?

Its common all over asia to see people undertake several days fasting & meditation near the grave of prophets,saints,monks,masters in the hope of gaining some supernatural power.

Im finding this very difficult to believe. However if people here say they have seen it first hand & are telling the truth, Then this is simply amazing.

So even though michael winn calls it red dragon its really a different pearl method your saying ? sourced from the following: http://www.healingtaousa.com/pages/asheville/index.html Michael Winn Asheville Healing Tao Center Oct. 16 - 17, 2010 (Sat/Sun): Asheville, N.C. MEDICAL & SPIRITUAL QIGONG FUNDAMENTALS 1 & 2 with Michael Winn Day 2: Guided Micro-Cosmic Orbit. This famous Tao meditation unifies all energy centers/chakras into a flowing whole. Process is made simple and physically tangible with the powerful "Open Qi (Chi) Flow in the Orbit" movement qigong. Chi transmission is given to help you open chi flow spiraling in an orbit around your torso. Includes oral transmission of the powerful Wudang Mountain "Red Dragon" internal method of circulating the orbit.(NOT taught in standard Healing Tao curriculum). THIS IS THE MOST POWERFUL & EFFECTIVE ORBIT METHOD I'VE FOUND – during my 30 years search

I doubt this Red Dragon MCO can live up to all the hype. After all,what amazing things has michael winn ever displayed or developed for that matter ?

@ Votex,yes bro. I have never practiced any of the chia material so i dont really know much about it. However the method i described is a very traditional method.

I never said it was Red Dragon did i ? I was referring to the "TAOIST LOOPING" Method mentioned by "tummoessence" earlier.

Actually the Taoist looping Method is very different from those described here, but one of the most effective. I dont normally comment on the orbit, but today i just couldnt resist. Quoted from somewhere i already forgot.... 1) Sit in lotus or legs crossed. Obey all the basic rules of meditation posture. 2) Grasp your thumbs inside your fist, 3) Inhale through the nose and feel the energy descend through jen-mo into the abdomen (stove) where the breathe will be heated (transmuted) and energized. 4) When you have inhaled your breath,lock your anal sphincter tightly and pull your chin down onto your chest,performing a chin lock. IMPORTANT NOTE... (These two movements help the energy from escaping the abdominal chamber. Also, when you begin to hold the breath blood vessels will constrict raising ones blood pressure. The chin lock will reverse this process and restore equalibrium to the body.) 5) With the breathe held,and the anal & chin locks in place,begin to feel the energy in the abdomen begin to rise upward along the back Tu-Mo channel 6) As the energy travels upwards,it moves through the seven houses (glands) then into the sexual glands where it makes a spiraling-circular movement, and then passes upward and through the remaining Six houses in similar wheel-like movements.The wheel like rotations at each house serve to energize the gland in which it occurs,as well as transform the energy into a higher order to be recieved by the next house. This is done all the while holding the breath & is very hard to describe without a diagram . In this way each gland serves as a transformer or generator for the energy of the body. 7) When the energy reaches the pineal gland, let this circulate there for a moment, and then release the anal & chin locks and slowly exhale. 8) Begin the cycle over again. At first you will want to hold your breath for only 7 seconds (1 second for each gland). With practice you will hold the breathe much longer periods of time. As the breath is held for longer periods, one can start making two or more loops around the houses for each period during which the breath is held.

I agree 100% there. You need somebody who has a great understanding about qigong,taoism, to translate these books.

I accidently deleted that one sometime ago. There is a new link up and running and those interested can pm me if they like. I will send you a pm now APD with the new level 3 tridaya link. Thanks.

Thats right scotty. Theres the potential to make some decent money for the translator. English is regarded as the Universal Language and even China was made to speak English for the Beijing Olympics. I couldnt be bothered learning Mandarin as i already have my hands full. Taking the time to study another language is simply out of the question. I would like to thank Mr Ymwong however for his wonderful translations on this board sometime ago. If the full manual cannot be translated then i would encourage some others who can read mandarin to share parts of the book here. It only takes a few seconds to translate or copy some words from a book and not hours or weeks .

So now you will have a book translated from Classical Chinese to Mandarin to French then finally into English ? Finding some French people ? ROFL come on. Wouldnt it be more logical to ask one of the many Chinese members here, Or is it just me who thinks that way ?

Anytime mate There used to be a website somewhere with all the "plumpub" material on there. The link was posted here last year but i think it was removed when the forum was upgraded.

Hi Neichuan, You might want to read the following posts by "Iskote" ,Lots of good Info regarding the subject http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?/topic/12287-macau-wuji-qigong-association/

All replies much appreciated, So if i wanted to become a better person or improve my martial arts skill.... Could an example be given here on how to produce such a square ? I suppose you could say im after a demonstration on the practical applications of the square. Knowing the theory is one thing, But being able to apply it in reality maybe alot more difficult i think ? Thanks,

Thanks very much cow tao, You must be one of the very few people who has knowledge on this subject. So can the square be used as a guide or oracle to solve ones problems in life (like magic), Or does this numbers only relates to the universe etc ? Thanks.

Ok guys, I have had many requests and email messages requesting the Tridaya Level 3 Booklet. I cannot advertise any websites guys as i promised the moderators, However the old links above are now open for level 3 Tridaya.
