No, I don't dislike anyone. That is a waste of energy.

You should have reposted, so I could see it, instead of editing a post so far back I could miss it. The answer to your question is also self-evident, although not at this point. It is the difference between thinking that you know, versus actually knowing.

Do you really want to start a debate? I am not debating with you, it would be pointless.

"I was wondering if any of you had the 'oportunity' of meeting the flyers.. " Yes I saw one, and it is "bat like" though not physical. I demanded the presence to show itself and He came right at my face, and was gone after I blinked. I was startled, and a bit afraid. He hides inside of my bed and try's to feed when I'm sleeping. His venom is paralyzing, and sleep inducing. Willpower can overcome this venom. I have been weaving a shield, It seems to be working.

"I actually consider experience and knowledge one in the same. Imo, when someone is spoon-fed knowledge so that they must memorize it in order to integrate it into their cognition, no learning has occurred. Learning is understanding thoroughly--truly owning the knowledge you possess. This is not to say one can not memorize first and understand later--though this is hardly the case with most people. Understanding is impractical, no? Memorization is easier, and gets the same results on exams and most of life's other standardized, practical measures of cognitive accomplishment. My Asperger's hinders my communicative abilities, and so I apologize if these thoughts are poorly organized." Don't you have something better to do by now? Do as you wish, if you want a formal instructor, one to call teacher, then go that route.

You have all the tools required, as well as the 1st step. No one can do internal arts for you.
-
Even better than learning, experiencing.
-
Each step you take along this path, you will come to understand some of the thing you say and think now, were completely off. As comes with cleansing.

1 chakra at a time.

I don't worry about the evil comming to power, they will always remain the weaker imo.
-
It is self evident, You will be aware of the chakra's, as well as utilize them.
-
It can be very trying and depressing at times as well, it's not a downhill journey, for the feint of heart. Which is why you can die from it.
-
I would suggest for the 1st phase to awaken your inner spirit or kundalini. There are many ways to do this, and it will be most beneficial.

"Btw How do I know that the dantien is already full and ready to be condensed ? " You will know I guess your breathing is a bit different than how I do, when I work with the fire, I hold it there regardless on inhale or exhale. As you said intuitive, is mostly how I worked as well. So do what feels ok for you or as your master instructs. If you can't put more in your dan tien then . . . Also a master can tell you how far along you are (in person), not that it will make much difference in knowing.

http://www.chikung.com/jing/ "This is the only place in the world where you can learn this INTERNAL material. Are you serious enough for the good stuff? Just decide and start!" ?????????????????? Where is the free video?

Thank you Nanashi! I have never heard the term, although the beauty is evident to me. If I could attempt to translate, I would say harmonious existence without want beyond need. Would that be close?
-
That is beautiful, will you share more?
-
If I = ego, then I would obviously be false.
-
Yes, they do not tell you that part. They won't even admit such a thing exists at all.
-
Seems like a nice glossary, got a link? Although the excessive comma's add to the confusion of what is truly being said.

The reason lotus is prescribed is to prevent chi from traveling down and out your legs. Not everyone can direct the chi, if you can, then I think you would progress faster, as well being able to cultivate while standing or sitting in a chair. Movement and how it does help is not fully understood by me, I have found it beneficial, and it may have something to due with increased sensitivity to the energy of motion aids you. I have a suggestion, put your arms straight out and level, palms facing down, then slowly and meaningfully raise your palms so that they are facing away from you, until you can feel a sort of tension in your finger-tips. Then attempt to hold that very tension in your fingertips as you move your arms around. Once you feel tension in all over your fingertips, then try to feel it in your palms. Every movement that you make should be with the tension, if the tension goes away, then that isn't the proper movement.

I have been practicing for maybe 10 years or so. Although not formally. The expansions seems to be very gradual, and actually condensing requires me to split focus between the root and brow chakra, creating a path for jing to travel. I have yet to succeded in cutting its ties completely, although I can coax it anywhere between heart and root. I would ask you the same questions in kind

Condensing and cultivating are seperate. You fill the Dan Tien before you condense it to make room to put more. There are more ways than one to get yang to go to the dan tien. It can be directed there directly down the spine, or directed there through the hands. Which concentration of chi are you putting there? If you feel the fire below the navel in your Dan Tien, then it is working in that aspect. There is the celestial chi that may also go there. If you want to be able to tell your progress, you can put your right hand over the dan tien, (palm facing it) and feel how strongly your hand is repelled, you can use the left hand in the same manner and see how it is attracted or pulled towards the dan tien. It may be in reverse, depends on your body. I personally find the greatest effect for me is to put my right palm directly on my lower stomache, with my left palm on the top of it, thumbs interlaced and touching. Then I call celestial chi from the heaven and direct it there directly down the spine as well as through the hands.
