  1. Weird feeling when cross feet

    So from what I read from you Daojones I understand you feel discomfort by the crossing of feet or putting the soles of feet together. From what I know there are two types from Kinesiology those system that ran crossed and those that are linear from the classical information. People who are in linear system feel better when they move the same sides legs and arms together. The energy flow is fast. Actually this is a non prefered state because one may take a lot of energy of not so suited energyforms and also may flush out too much energy before it had the time to do something in the body. General it is said that this sort of flow is unnatural to normal human as it happens if one is under stress and energy has to be fastend to mobilize the resource and that may burn up energy. This also occurs when energy is increased and is too much for the system to handle (overtraining on energetic scale) It is called "switching". Then one use deswitching methods (one can google for the methods) Else in a de-switched state normal movements are weakening and drain oneself by for example normal walking, left hand right feet, right hand left feet. The problems in deswitching is that the one or the other state is dominating which again can be used for advantage but the middle state is that one has both balanced for daily life. So when one cross something: Actually what happens is that the current is closed. The energy exchange is minimized and internalized also slowed down, which again leads to restructure of the energyflow inside the body and nourish the body. But those whose leg channel have not developed well will damage their leg channel by long sitting, because it cut of the flow. Actually this sort is good to have energyflow to maintain the body erect with no effort which is more difficutl than sitting on a chair or standing because the force of the earth is minimized to raise the body. So this is why it is prefered to use a crossleged posture to internalize and still the mind and redirect energy into the upper part while press more force down in enhancing the leg channels. Sitting on a chair which is a posture to keep open to external forces but maintain a balanced energyflow with no concentration in any part of the body else switching of the flow can be done by movement of arms or postures of hands. This is good after able to crosslegged so one do not trick onself with the help of the legs energy to make the upper body errect. The above work is need so one not trick oneself and build firm inner strength in this manner else one trick oneself with standing which use more earth force (levitationsforce vs gravitation). This is needed to maintain the state in the body when one change posture (and we do a lot in daily life) standing, sitting, crossing uncrossing etc to maintain free flow without interruption and lessen repeated recalibration by the body. Since you expirience discomfort. -Deswitching is the first thing to consider. -Reduce overall Stress in life, less fast movements -Next thing is to build inner strength so that one do not rely on outer force that much -as well to have a sudden change which disrupt the "normal status quo" energyflow in the body. -Reduce the Qigongtraining, reduce the speed actually energy flow slow in the body and one need slow speed to be more in sync with the energy until the energy flow is natural faster than in the moment. So a little share here from my expirience results.
  2. Xiao Yao Pai

    So what is your advice -Wushi Flowing Hands- for those who wants continue the Xiao Yao Pai but also want to listen to your advice about possible things to be considered? People are aware now that learning from Immortals is difficult and play by unknown rules and factors. They may work with "Fa" and "Deities" methods to go as far as possible in their spiritual development, as it feels as it is better to do something than rather not do something. Again you know that the "no risk policy" is something people find most safe. People are go to visit Lions even they know they may end up in a Lion, still they want to minimize this possibility. So what can be done to enhance safety while exploring such teachings?

    So if one has the Fa, how can one utilize it Wu Shi Flowing Hands and how to neutralize evil influence if there is any.
  5. Michael Lomax interview tonight

    He can do more than he talk, others talk more than they do. (I lately read a bit Confucius )
  6. Xiao Yao Pai

    Effi, Flowinghands words are coming to the right time. It was important that he mentioned the difference between an immortal and deity and having also an additional very difficult way to get teached by an immortal. (One look at facts and see its usefulness, a scolding is not neccessary wrong when the intent is right, so I understood Liao Fan) Until this happens which I doubt to be if I understand Wu Shi Flowinghands words. The Xiao Yao Pai having "The low high level spirit" is a good choice to take the gamble. The Warning from Wu Shi Flowinghands are considered and acknowledge when pursueing the way of Xiao Yao Pai as when reading the four lesson of Liao Fan fate is set only remarkable goodness or badness alter it....or magic. Days before on Friday an old coworker comes and he told me "When the halo is established, the teacher will come and seek you. He want to teach but he will choose only from the best(reached halo)" Which makes me think I heard it somewhere and making the way to be chosen by an immortal path is difficult.

    Very good reminder.

  13. Long-term kunlun practitioners?

    I can only give a general advice. The beginning move is to introduce the movements. Actually when one take once the introduction one do let go. It is not the purpose to maintain the posture it is the energy that decide what is to be done next. If one let go and it stay in that posture than it is because it is so. If one let go an all hangs down, this also part of it. If one take another posture then it is also so. If it is the same form but look different it is also. The rule is to maintain the body in a posture where the body needs least force to maintain a posture but having access and least resistance to change. This is how Yi Gong/Kunlun does by sitting in the specific posture with raised heels and sitting at the edge of a chair to have the legs less resistance to move making it different to methods who sit with feet flat on a chair, crosslegged on floor, standing. If one has calmed the movements one meditate in that posture or what result after the initiation. In the calmed state one may seek something like a gymnastikball or something soft and sponge not too hard. It is to give more movement for the hip. But it is not recommend for people with strong movements, else one may fall off the chair or the worry may decrease the movements that happen. Actually if you have refined the exercise. The saturation time will decrease so it result into short movementset and the rest of time one sit and just meditate. Generally one has things tense to tense things relax to relax things move to move things keep stil to keep still The fault idea in this art is that one relax only which means one do not allow the tension that must happen. Some part has to tense more than it is tensed - to remove the tension. If you had problems with the posture it was better to seek a method where the movements are ask for movments - and not posture ask for a movement.
  14. Cliteracy

    Oh you would have like to meet Confucius, as scholar and with his multi-layer meaning of his sentence he may turn people red. I think he was very good in teasing, but well I ask me if something like this is recorded.
  15. Long-term kunlun practitioners?

    It is a good sign that you have. You need to go to your teacher to get an upgrade in your development.
  16. Long-term kunlun practitioners?

    It is to ask how this weakening is expirienced to understand this. A practise is changing and evolve, never expect it is the same.
  17. Jim McMillan has passed away

    That are really news, the last thing we saw here was that he was really bad and now he is gone...... May he become Chinese and get access to Mo Pai again to hopefully this time reach his goal.
  18. edit timer?

    The act is the teaching of the Core of Tao of the everchange of things. When something not change it will wither and die. The act is remove so that there is no past so to teach the importance of the present. When you think you can do it again 'Life is not a Nintentogame' as Eminem said . As from the past one judge a person. This I think makes the reader to eager to read than to carefully read. There is a difference for people to read something you highly respect and someone unknown with unknown reputation. How you suprise someone if they know beforehand? People like to listen to doctor, enginieer,masters, sifu, gurus because of their title and their reputation. But some wisdom come from simple people which are overheard. One moment of shock as it is in Satori to expand the wisdom. If things not remain forever the carefull one get to read it and gain wisdom beyond the words lay there. Knowlege is easy to obtain by memory but Wisdom is attainted by awareness result in recognizing. One remember; one moment is enough to reach the Zen-it not thousand words and sometimes one only get a chance to learn.

    Well I contacted circles in Germany since people are not seem to know about this petition and I told them on the serious matter it can affect as well Germany and other places. Hope they spread it as they reach more people than I do. To give the chance to open our own hearts and courage to choose the right thing and act, by presenting the bad thing and to learn that we a not alone standing against dictatorship and that there are other who want maintain the peoples right to choose. And hope that this act may open his heart and mind and prove him that people still care for their freedom.

  21. girl problems

    More to ask how you are now dealing with the girl? More to ask why does he flirt when he know you have a crush? More to ask why not observe and see what they are talking, then you can start to talk next? More to ask was.... it count his teeth or was it count my teeth or count our teeth if she had already a friend?
  22. When you look at Wu Wei Methods they result in spontaneus movement. For someone who is a human not involved in Qigong or Energy Art it will look for the religious like possesion and the logic minded person as madness either think it is real madness or caused by drugs. Arent possesion or madness not disturbing? Master Hu Yuexian is an example who has exercised very long resulting in a seemingly form while all is spontaneus and result in calmness. If you see a beginner who allow those movements...... you will be shocked as parent who would say : "At least let music run to it! People may think you are crazy!"
  23. I just assume it. Because greatest problem for the Wu Wei method accusation to worry about is - madness - possesion also I am not able to think about other things that would be disturbing. I would like to learn about if I miss something.
  24. When one is posses by Jinn, signs are really bad quality of sleep with nightmares, and insomnia while fear is involved. In awakend state one would is illogical agressive a nd when hearing holy words, righteous word from someone who is righthouse one feel anger and pain. One can not stop movements. When there is movement they are try to hurt somebody. The face is in such state look like a different person with darker face and strange veins. This person also is like being hunted and one has fear if one is alone and this person see shadows and may her voices that mock. The mind is dull and the person is uncalm. In a lineage where spontaneus movement is happening. The body move because of integration and catharsis. It is to cleanse off impulse which one has not expressed. These is stored in the memory and feeds of ones energy. These catharsis can be kicked in by long dances, shaking, as well because of the flow of energy in the energybody when a blockage is open the body may move. Else one may not move but feel that the place is flushed. The body move in specific patterns for rebalance. The moves can be stopped by ones own will. I expirience that warriors tend to have strong catarsis with screaming and violent moves but this is again cause by their strict discipline to do the moves as they are teached dissallowing "mistaskes". So is same to people because of their culture are forbidden to live certain aspects. People in service are teached to smile all the day, must friendly, must courtesey, must friendly. The more one supressed things a child would do and an adult is not allowed, the more strong the reaction. The goal is to reach the state of calmness, sleep is deep one has a kind of fearlessness in nightmares if they are called nightmares....if you subdue the things there. As well no nightmares. The daily life more than normal with more common sense because of greater awareness and with greater compassion. When Catharsis is over one will start to do TaiChi like movements, only that they happen alone and then a long time of deep still meditation follows and then again movements.
