The eight forces of nature speak
ChiDragon replied to Harmonious Emptiness's topic in Daoist Discussion
What happen to Water....??? -
Question! 1. What do you mean by high-level Chi Kung? 2. What is your understanding about this "Chi can eventually transform a living environment"?

Yeah...he got it from BKA.......

Remember there are legitimate and illegitimate Taoists. The illegitimate ones always have to defend that they are legitimate.

People talk about meditation but do they really speaking about Chi Kung? It depends what they had in mind. If they were only have the cultivation of the mind in mind, just talk about sitting straight and align with the spine, and not too seriously about putting the emphasis on breathing, then, it cannot be considered that to be Chi Kung. They can even tolerate the practitioner in falling into sleep due to the lack of breathing or not breathing was acceptable. Thus, that is not what Chi Kung is all about. Chi King cultivate three things, regulating breathing, enhance the body and inspire the mind. However, the last two criteria will have no effect if the first one was not performed. If someone teaches me Chi Kung but taught me meditation instead, then I would reconsider going to somebody else for that matter. Btw That is a way to tell is the teacher any good or not by this dead give away.

For those who have cultivated at least five years, can you describe what have you accomplished....??? It would be something like you couldn't do it before but now you could. If you were asked to demonstrate your special skill, can you do it instantly....???

The reason I didn't response because I didn't see Chi Kung was involved in your practice.

A little summary for Chi Kung(æ°Łć) Chi Kung may be considered to be preliminary for Nei Kung. Even though the UMB is the primary part of Chi Kung, but it was only exercising the lung while massaging the internal organs. The extra amount of oxygen from breathing through the lung will provide energy for the heartbeat. Each time the heart will beat stronger and circulate food and oxygen to the internal organs to enhance their functions or repair any bad tissues. As the result, Chi Kung was really helping the body to do all the internal maintenance work. In a way, it may be considered to be preliminary for Nei Kung because no physical work has been done yet.

All depends who said that. There may be peace at home for self comfort but was taken from somebody else's misery.

Difference between Qigong and Neigong?
ChiDragon replied to JustARandomPanda's topic in Daoist Discussion
I knew somebody will come out to say that which is fine because that is the final result of Chi Kung. It is easy to say it but difficult to understand. -
Zen is an esoteric term for Buddhism. The purpose of the Zen garden, Japanese style, is to manifest tranquility, serenity and harmony.

So far, Dazuo(æć) is practicing Chi Kung(æ°Łć), the UMB. There was no physical exercise involve yet. Thus Nei Kung(ć §ć), internal practice, has not come into the picture yet. Actually, during the static Chi Kung practice, a scanning process was going through the body for illnesses or bad tissues. As soon any problems were found, the healing process with begin to repair the bad tissues and fine tune all the internal organs simultaneously. Chi Kung is getting the body ready, in tip top shape, for the next stage which is Nei Kung. Nei Kung requires Chi Kung to assist the body to build up the physical strength. When the body parts are moving while performing the UMB, that is where Nei Kung begins . It is because the muscles are working together with the respiratory system in the biophysical loop. The biophysical loop will provide energy for muscle tone. After a prolong practice, the muscles will be firm and increase in strength. Hence, that was where all the energy of the body came from.

IMO The semantics are in a big mess now, especially, from translation to translation. If we don't straight them out now before it is too late, then they will get worse and more ambiguous. I had read the original classic of the TTC. Of course, it doesn't mean anything to anybody. Chuang Tzu was written in parables and lengthy classic is boring like hell. Anyway, thank you for pouring some cold water over our heads to wake us up. -

In general, wasn't that being understood as common sense .....??? The deeper one are typical, if the needle goes in at an angle might cause some kind of sensation or irritation. At this point, the needle is puncture perpendicularly 1.5 - 2.5 inches. Innervation: 1. The inferior gluteal cutaneous nerve 2. the inferior gluteal nerve 3. Deeper, the sciatic nerve

Now, by comparison between Meditation and Dazuo in breathing: 1. Meditation: breathe softly and naturally. 2. Dazuo(æć) or Zenzuo(çŠȘć): Regulates the breathing. Now we have established the difference in breathing. Hereinafter, we can also distinguish the difference between Meditation and Dazuo. From the definitions above are well defined for clarity. Now, I can go into the difference between Chi Kung and Neigong. Why is Chi Kung and Nei Kung are so confusing? Let's follow the sequence of events, one begins as an ordinary person which has no Wu Kung(æŠć) experiences. That means one has to start with breathing first with Dazuo. His breathing must reach deep down to the abdomen. When that was accomplished, it was considered to be that the goal of the Ultimate Method of Breathing(UMB) has been met. The whole precess is called Static or Stillness Chi Kung. Then goes into the next stage which one might call it the Dynamic Chi Kung with slow movements.

The acupuncture points are from 0.1 to 1.0 inch in depth. The needle has to go down deeper will produce more pain.

This something I had read in some fictional Chinese Kung Fu stories. "Minor death" is when the practitioner at the point almost reached to the highest realm will be passed out. If he come back from the transient, he will survive and had reached the highest realm. Otherwise, he won't come back at all and died instead.

Would Buddhist monks be keen to learn Baguazhang?

That is good for a zigzag walk. That's what I do on those boring cruises around the ship.

ChiDragon replied to Gerard's topic in Buddhist Discussion
Yes, Kung Fu comes in all styles. It happens to be that Ba Gua is a Taoist style rather than Buddhist. Have you seen any Buddhist monk practice Ba Gua yet. I can tell you one thing though. Tai Ji is a Taoist style and popular throughout the world. Hence, the shaolin(ć°æ) monks have picked that up for its market value. FYI Chi Kung is universal. Anyone can practice it.
