  1. The Microcosmic Orbit

    I am confused about this practice. Reading Mantak Chia's Awaken Healing Energy Through the Tao is almost like reading a difficult computer manual to me. I understand all of the information on the energy points. I just don't understand how one accumulates, and moves energy through the points. The book doesn't give any visualization method so do you just concentrate on that area of the body? Also I don't really understand if you complete a whole orbit in one sitting, or do you concentrate on one of the centers for a few weeks or so before moving on to another center and so on until you have developed each center to move the orbit in one sitting. Just really confusing...
  2. The Microcosmic Orbit

    I didn't realize there were so many microcosmic orbit practices. I was just familiar with Chia's method. Does anyone know if Wong Kiew Kit practices the orbit in his school?
  3. Hello everyone, I am Cecil from Kansas and I have become interested in Taoism from practicing yoga, tantra and other esoteric arts. The eastern methods are practical, and effective. I have got results from yoga, and tantra that are profound and leave me wanting more. I have been reading things on taoism and internal alchemy but all I can find is things of medical qi gong. Although the healing aspects are great I am not looking to become a healer. I am looking to cultivate chi in a powerful, effective way. Are there any authentic systems that do not concentrate solely on healing others?
  4. Non medical tao practices?

    Yes I guess you could say I am planning to practice-hop. Yoga is beneficial and effective but after reading about the chinese methods, I just think I'll work with them better.
