  1. How to overcome sugar cravings

    as Drew said, vinegar. And green powder daily, if you cant eat enough good greens. and chromium picolinate. and Yacon syrup if you really need to taste something sweet that aint fruit, or sweeten coffee etc.
  2. A friendly reminder

  3. Tao Bums Post of the Year (2009)!

    Nostalgia Fest = why? Why not just be in the now, and create some good posts.
  4. Liver spasm?

    I get liver movements too. It's such a big organ you can feel what's going on with it, very palpably. If I go out and drink wine my liver feels a bit sore and I drink a little liver cleanse drink, makes it happy again. Definitely if I've been very angry my liver needs TLC afterward.

  6. Sexual vocabulary

    I'd get banned for a week if I suggested you change your name from "Tao99" to "Standard Definition thankyou99", so I wont suggest it. Have a good day.
  7. Sexual vocabulary

    in polite public conversation? Like when you discuss genitals at the Post Office? Then you use 'letterbox' and 'package' obviously, and mourn over telegrams and phwoar over letterbombs. Or polite public genital conversations in the bank? then you talk about making a Deposit in a High Interest Account. In the UK we just dont have the word 'cookie' at all. We either have biscuits or cunts. They arent quite the same thing.

    There isnt a woman alive who doesnt know how sexism works.
  9. Qi is NOT Energy

    Hi, yes. About the divinity. When I worked with a very powerful and very pragmatic chinese kung fu master we shared a lot of energy and within it for me was KwanYin and Celestial Love, Crystal Skulls and the felt experience of perfection in everyone. For him, no, there wasnt this. I asked Zhendi Wu about how we could have experienced it so diversely and she said 'Shen".
  10. Qi is NOT Energy

    Hi Little 1. I'd love to sit down and have dinner with you and Michael Winn sometime. Pre heaven Yuan Qi is what we come in with, from our ancestors, yes? Our Jing? We feel it as the essential flavour of 'us'.. it is our signature note, the care and attention and flair and stamina we may have or not have, at the moment of orgasm. The essence of how much we are able to respond to the food we are eating and stay with it, or wether we are a little absent and flavour is amorphous to us. Is this it? That we taste flavours right down to our toes, or we avoid challenging tastes altogether, because we dont have the reserves with which to meet the experience. How present we are able to be. How shiny is our presence, how alive are our eyes. Is this our pre heaven qi.. it's what we came in with. What about what I know as Primordial heaven? That is the clear light of bliss, the void. we experience it in meditation or deep states of energy work. This is Yuan Qi. And we can transmute our energies into it via alchemy. Yuan qi emerges from a place beyond polarity, so this is how we transmute later energies. We move into the non polarised place. I remember Michael saying that feeling cut of from God is lack of Yuan Qi.

  12. Sexual vocabulary

    From your point of view, that is what the thread is mostly about. A part of you celebrates the juvenile discovery of taboos and the thrill of challenging them. Just to make it clear that you are speaking for yourself, alone, rather than, for example, me. I'm not american and I'm not middle class and I'm not provincial or from a pious background, so ordinary words like 'pussy' or 'dick' dont come up as taboo for me in any way. From my point of view, that's kind of a laughable idea. You know how they say that most swinging goes on in the suburbs.. the smaller the frame of reference, the more of a charge associated with 'naughtiness'...the more boundaried the sexuality the greater the thrill around loosening the fences. Well, that just isnt taoist or tantric sexuality. Not noway not nohow.

  14. Qi is NOT Energy

    Revelation comes from being filled with divinity.... if one is filled with chi, the dulling of the senses is blown away... telepathic communication is our natural way I think, but we are fogged by life such as it is. Meditating one night in my living room in the dark, I felt a line of energy running round the parameter of the room, and sensed it as kind of infra red. Turned out it was a mouse in the skirtingboard. Hunters used to sense their prey, as well as call them. Much we have lost, can be regained as we clear ourselves out of the way. Less self, more receptivity. You know this already of course!
  15. Qi is NOT Energy

    q1 is interesting.. do you experience a difference ? I think they are the same, but yuan qi that one has 'reclaimed' or processed/refined ... how to say... hmmm... it has been through your system, maybe there is some imprint of you within it, some flavour, some hue that you can experience more acutely because it went through your own refinery. But .. I dont know. To go back a bit : my sense of it is that the difference between pre heaven yuan qi and post heaven yuan qi is that there is simply MORE primordial, it's pure unadulterated. Early heaven is half and half, ie half of early heaven resides within duality, and later heaven is only fractionally yuan qi. But the yuan qi itself is the same. Like gold running through rock.
