FYI The TCM and claims of different methods and practices are just imaginary concepts. There are no scientific proves but beliefs and the results are the only proves. How does work? Just go study the function of the human and try to relate them.

I forgot to ask you. Do you have any pain on the left side of your abdomen?

Sorry. I offended you. I didn't mean to!

Breathe, just breathe for good health. Isn't that lucky that Qigong helped me to survive after 6.3 minutes without losing my breath?

Look how many who left and never came back?

I live and learned that fat meat or meat is definitely not in the Taoist diet! Peace! Taomeow.

Your reproductive system is at stake. It is a biological issue. Doing strenuous excise won't help to improve your internal health. It only consume more of your internal energy. Practice something moderate without making you sweat like Taiji will help the body to build energy. Thus you want to do something to increase your energy level but not consuming energy at the same time. Your energy is in a negative level from your past experience. Your body needs to recuperate internally to bring you back to the positive level. In order to speed up your energy level you needed the help of oxygen. To bring up the oxygen level in your body is by practice the Ultimate Method of Breathing(UMB) as I have posted in my PPD. You should concentrate on you breathing practice instead of spending more time searching for help!

The most effective and simplest style is the Yang 24 form style. Taiji is categorized as a form of Qigong. You just learn the style and practice at least twice a day or as often as you can(recommended). Be sure you follow my breathing method regardless what others tell you. The key to Taiji is the coordination between the breathing and movements. If you practice it with determination to do it diligently, then, you should see some results in a few months. However, you must stop the illegitimate practice from that book. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.

The goal for alchemy is to have good health. It was only a hope for immortality. One might say it was a wishful thinking at the time due the lack of scientific knowledge.

Really? I never have a lap cheong for breakfast but only for dinner with rice.

WOW! What a Taoist breakfast! I didn't know Taoists love fat meats!

How can a person obtain the level required to cultivate properly? Isn't the idea was to practice from the beginning to get to the point where one wants to be, progressively?

Don't worry ! If there is a disease, then, there is a cure for it. The book you had followed should have bad been banned from the market. It is because it is not a legitimate practice. That method was from a fiction story. A legitimate practice doesn't need a teach if the instructions are clear and easy to follow. To cure your problem is to return your body health back to normalcy. The best cure is to practice Qigong or Taiji. You don't need to buy expensive books to learn it. Don't just learn it from anyone that might rip you off. To put you at rest assured, I was at your present condition once before. However, I had cured myself and return to a health condition even better than before. To get a general idea what Qigong/Chi Kung is all about, you might want to check it out in my Personal Practice Discussion(PPD). Hope you return to good health!

Yes.

Not if you also understand Chinese. The translation is saying the opposite of the original text.

That is what we will get from all the Taoist texts. They are just copies of the basic concept.

Please do not use google translation for classic text. It was not make for that. I tried that at first too. It turns out to be not making any sense at all.

24．.....师答曰。夫道以无心为体。忘言为用。以柔弱为本。以清静为基。若施于人。必节饮食。绝思虑。静坐以调息。安寝以养炁。心不驰则性定。形不劳则精全。神不扰则丹结。然后灭情于虚。宁神于极。 The teacher said: No intention is the fundamental basis. Forgetting the words(silence) is the function. Based on the softness and tranquility, if passed onto others, one must go on diet and forget all the worries. Zazen to regulate the breathing and laid down to preserve chi(养炁). If the heart is not disturbed, then, it is at rest. If the body is not busy, then the jing is full. If the soul has no worries, then the dan(丹) has formed. Hereinafter, enter the emptiness by getting rid of all the desires. Hence, Ning Shen(宁神) is at the highest state.

Whatever his name is. He is the one that knows what he is talking about! Those who want to know what Qigong is all about? Sink chi to the dantian(LDT). This is how it was done. It doesn't matter what kind of Qigong one is practicing, this is the fundamental breathing routine that everyone must go through. Without this breathing routine, nothing could be accomplished in any method.

No errors here!🙂

A Meridian point is just a small dot. Dantian is a much bigger area.

I see lots of martial arts mistakes in these pictures. Apparently, the artiest who drew the pictures has no kung fu experience. In the first picture. His right foot should be at an angle of 45 degree. He just locked himself up in a very vulnerable position. In the third picture. It is very poor stance for a Kung Fu fighter. He would never be able to lift himself up in that position. Perhaps someone would like to point it out why! In the fifth picture, an experience fighter would not put a sharp object behind the back. Again, the legs are locked in a 雙重(double weight) position. In the sixth picture and the seventh, there is something doesn't look like in each. What would that be? It would be very interesting to hear your comments. Note: A locked position is a posture that puts one in an awkward position to free oneself from going to the next move.

May I pat you on the back?

妳走火入魔已深!
