    Thank you Sifu Terry, I appreciate your take on astral projection, those are some ideas I believe I certainly should look into. I've actually been speaking with Da Le, I have found him to be quite an interesting fellow to say the least, his knowledge on religion and spirituality is really quite fascinating. My training begins later this month and I "WILL" order the first 2 DVD's of your Chi Kung for Health series on the 11th, a little later then planned but you know the old saying, better late than never. This should be quite an experience.

    Thank you for your patient answer Sifu Terry. I actually haven't begun yet so I'm still chilling, got side tracked a bit for awhile but I will be starting very soon, sometime this month possibly, with the first two volumes. With spring starting to roll around I should be a lot warmer from that at least in the mean time. I read so many good things about these meditations that I think I really must give them a shot. (Finished reading the whole forum.) Warmest Regards from a place that's slowly getting warmer, Shen

    I have a question, I read in a few places that high qigong entails high morals and vice versa, could you please explain a thing or two about what this means if you've heard anything about it Sifu Terry? Is it true?, or is it something the masters of old made up to ensure they only had good hearted students? Warmest regards from the cold, cold north, Shen

  5. Good news, I'll be beginning Flying Phoenix practice in May via the first 2 DVD's, decided to finally get crackin' with it, :) I feel myself being called to the meditations somehow, strange it's something is telling me that it's my answer somehow. :)

  6. Progress update - All goes well, results are being gained slowly through the training, my abilities are building up a little higher every week. How goes your meditations? :) - Shen

  7. Thanks Da Le, and I'll definately have to listen to that some time, I never would have guessed music could bring one back together like that, glad it helped you so much. :) Warmest regards from the cold, cold north. :) - Shen

  8. I've never heard anything like that before, it's quite fascinating. I'll have to look into the power of such music sometime, I never would have thought to be honest. Oh and to update you on things, I'm studying the first DVD volume now, should be ready to begin my training tomorrow. Warmest regards from the cold, cold north. :) - Shen

  9. Oh I didn't know you were teaching, cool... I hope to do that someday myself, I'm researching longevity and youth maintaining arts and plan to teach those to my older friends someday... :) - Shen

  10. Got my DVD's a day early, looked the beginners one over and it looks tough but certainly manageable with some work. the DVD has a setting to just play a single section of the program and then takes it back to menu when it's done playing the chosen section, I think that should make it much easier to learn. Hope your meditations are going well, warmest regards from the cold, cold north......

  11. Thank you very much for the more in depth information. Hope your training is going well Da Le. :) - Shen

  12. Wow that's cool, thanks for that bit of information. Enlightening as always Da Le. :) - Shen

  13. Thank you for the encouragement Da Le and your right I always have been one to plow right through and never let anything stop me. :) - Shen

  14. Oh and thanks for the mindfulness. With the training regime I'm laying out I'm gonna need all I can get to keep going from the start to the never ending finish. I'll be mindful of yours too Da Le. :) - Shen

  15. Yeah it is what Micheal Winn teaches but I'm going for the DVD with Cheng Bingsong as I read somewhere that Winn made an alteration to the form and I like to have things as close to the original as possible with this stuff. Might also get that DVD on that same qigong by Master Tseng at www.wudangtao.com so that I have another reference on the form. - Shen

  16. Well my DVD's should be in this friday, was thinking after I got a good grip on that as physical training I would add Yang Tai Chi as a gentle internal training to complement it. Just a thought but it might be worth looking into, also thinking of adding Wuji Qigong to it since thats supposed to be the original Tai Chi. :) - James

  17. Well now that must be an interesting feeling. As for the DVD's their not in quite yet I'm afraid, could be in either this friday or the next friday, I only go to town once a week to check things cause I live a ways out. Warmest regards from the cold, cold north to you on your training... :) - Shen

    Farewell Sifu Garry, you will be missed by all and I thank you for the help you have given me. All the best to you good sir.

  19. Hello Da Le, any new enlightenments in your meditations as of late? :) - Shen

  20. I'll be happy to report when I've gotten my training going. :) Good luck to you on your lengthy training today. - Shen

  21. Very interesting information, I can see you've collected much over the years. And yeah I can see how without Qigong or an energy enhancing practice your health might have been suffering. That's partially my dillema, I'm still young enough to work through it until my outer body is strong enough to maintain the Qigong stances, another reason for learning Shaolin Gongfu, the strength b...

  22. I thank you very kindly for this wonderful information. :) And I am in awe over your knowledge, you have already taught me quite a few interesting things. It's nice to know more about my sign and the name I seem to resonate with. Also I much like the symbol that goes to Da Le, that looks cool. And it is indeed interesting that Shen has 3 meanings, for years I thought it just meant spirit. -...

  23. Landed in my main folder, thank you very much, very interesting. :) Also I'd like to say just a smidge more about my sign, I am a dragon of the earth and numerically speaking 555 is the number for the earthly realm, so there's one more meaning behind it that I discovered. However before I found that out I always saw 5 as a lucky number for me in life. Funny how things connect like that. :D

  24. Much obliged, hope I can give a good performance when the time comes and MSN is prefered, you should see my email address on my profile. Oh and have a good round of practice Da Le, all the best to you. :) - Shen

  25. Thanks for the tip, I'll be working as hard as I can to get it all down pat and learned thouroghly. And I believe your right Da Le, observing while paying good attention is definately not a waste of time. Also once I've got the forms down decent I was thinking of posting my forms practice up on youtube so poeple can see the progress I make over time with my efforts. :)
