  1. Questions about exercise

    What he claimed might be very true. And it might be better for your health than normal cardio. However, Zhan Zhuang is an advanced Qi Gong practice. It's very hard to do it right for beginners. The same with Tai Chi.
  2. The pursuit of happiness is the road to hell...

    So smoking MJ all day and singing some love songs are the way? pursuit: It's an action. No action is the action. Road: it implies there are separation. We never moved anywhere. We're all here, now, in one place. Hell: It's not a public place. It's a construct that only exists in each individual. We're already in heaven. Our mind build layers of maze to enclosed ourselves in our own hell. We just need to let the wall disappear to see that we're indeed in heaven. I don't know exactly how to do it. Maybe believeing is the first step. I have to believe the stuff that I've writen myself.
  3. Tonal & Nagual

    Wrong quote. The correct one says "PARTIAL religions are desperate, clever, human inventions that rely on hypnotic manipulation of undeveloped minds." After all, taoism is a religion and Buddhaism is a religion now matter how you lable it. Sorry about off the topic.
  4. Advantages of starting from No-mind

    I used to think that when you have "no-mind", you're back to the original state and be one with it, and a few minutes of "no-mind" would bring great bliss and insight. If you can have "no-mind" for several hours a day, you must be a enlightend being.
  5. Makes no difference. If he moves in, the "methhead" neighbour will appear too. Inside is outside. I believe it though I haven't figure out exactly the mapping yet. The outside "methhead" banging on the wall was manifestation of his internal conflicts. It doesn't matter where he moves, the "problem" moves in with him. Because the "problme" is himself. Unless he solves the "problem" in a satisfying way. The "problem" will definitely show up in different form, but the same essence. Everything happens around you is indeed about you. Everything happens for a reason. People want to be special. But when they find out they ARE the center of the universe, they freak out. At least I did.
  6. Secret of the Golden Flower

    Thanks for the reply though I still have no clear understanding about your point. Inside is outside. An instruction manual should work both way. I used the "secret of Golden Flower" as internal energy work instruction. It worked exactly as described in the book so far. I didn't reach the end yet. There is some setback. I don't know when I'll go back to its practice. The "Secret of Golden Flower" should apply to outside too. I just can't connect the dots to put into practical use. It seems to me what you described is to give up on life. No desires, detachment, i.e. the heart sutra. It's a buddhaist practice. It definitely works for them. However, The "Secret of Golden Flower" is a taoist text book. I don't believe it takes the same approach. If I misunderstand your point, please let me know.
  7. Reverse & Vase Breathing.

    I do different. I have no idea what's the correct way. Inhale through mouth, compress LDT from all side (front, back, PC, the Crown), breath in from hand and feet as well. I seem to pack energy in LDT. exhale through nose, expand all side. energy out all. I only do it for about five minutes.
  8. Pole shift

    11 dimesions according to the string theory inventor. The regular person only can see three demesions.
  9. Tie Dang ("iron crotch") gong

    Iron crotch is the correct literal translation. However the actual meaning is "iron penis". I considered it and discarded it immediately. Who am I going to impress to haul a truck with my private part? Of course it has other benefit. But I didn't want to be bothered to hang dumb bell with my pravite part every day. It takes too long to prepare and longer to explain to my GF. A master from Taiwain is the best. His method is called 99 Shen Gong. The DVD kit costs around $500. Good luck. May you tow an airplane soon!
  10. orgasm in my brain from cannabis, now need answers

    The light of the eye is the united light of the sun and moon outside. The light of the ear is the united seed of sun and moon within. I highly doubt any energy still trapped there after three years. My guess would be one of the sound filter is malfunction or blown up in your hearing circuit during your brain orgasm by excess energy. Maybe a recalibration would reset it. I don't know how. What got you there is what get you out. You need to play with the energy to be rid of it if you want.
  11. orgasm in my brain from cannabis, now need answers

    I've been searching for the same thing for a while. I'm sure there are some one out there have the answer. But you may not like it: over ten years of daily practice. You can check out the Aneros forum. Aneros indeed works. Quite a few people there have real experences though nobody figures out exact the formula out either. Check out that forum FAQ first. It's very good.
  12. orgasm in my brain from cannabis, now need answers

    Yes. Your experience wasn't unique. Is it easy? Not really. No body was questioning if you were hallucination. I guess the other memeber just wanted to confirm if the sex engergy hit the third eye (pineal gland). The canabis convert Jing (sexy energy) to Qi automatically. It may also does something else to make it easier. I think it's more than just pumping the energy up to pineal gland. You also need something else. This is really inner alchemy. You're literally making drugs (MDT?) inside your body. It takes time, right ingredients (desire) and lots of Qi and Jing (sexy energy). And you need the right frequency (organism frequency?). And for maximum effect, you may also want to pump the serotonin from your guts up to your brain. Your whole body (including your organs) feel like a giant throbbing penis in orgasm and you literally see starts firing inside your brain. I think it's different than the bliss you get from Buddhaism meditation, in which you feel the calm universal love not the raw sexual ecstasy. But I'm not experience enough to tell. Yep. I was working on this for a while. Just when I thoght I was close to get the right formula, the damn premature kundalini awakening ruined it. Now think about it. It might be a dangerous practice.
  13. Secret of the Golden Flower

    I bought the book from Amazon by Richard Wilhelm. It's not that expensive. This web version is even cheaper. http://www.lifeforcebooks.com/_Media/SecretGoldenFlower.pdf
  14. Translate please

    It's a flow chart of 49 days of bardo. It might come from Tibetan book of death. I'd like to help but I'm not familiar with the terminology unless I read the whole article. I'm not very interested in the death. I prefer life over death. I haven't figure out how to live this life yet. Why should I worry about death?
  15. Thank you Eternal_student for your time. I have sinus problem. My right nose is alwasy blocked, especially at night, sometimes bleeding. The mucus is think white. I'm relatively healthy. I work out twice a week. practice Qi gong almost daily. My diet is rice, vegetables and lean meat (2:3:1) I've seen doctors before without success. Should I see a TCM doctor? Is there any herbs or treatment you recommand? Thanks again.
  16. Entering the Void

    Good quote. And it raises an interesting question that I've thinking without definite answer: can I really kill a person without permission from God? Meaning, If it's not time for that person to die, I can't kill him. Something might happen to prevent the killing: my mind was changed by "miracle", the gun jamed or someone push me to ground. My current thinking is that I could possiblly kill some person, but not every one I pick. The unseen law is like gravity: I can decide to go straight, left or right, but I can't go up in to the air or down under the ground. Back to top, enter the void. I think with love one can enter the void perfectly fine. Love of humanity is one of the best. Love of knowledge (curiosity) is fine too. Searching for your own immortality is dangerous one. I guess if the real intention is love of your own life is OK. But if the real motive is fear of death is very very bad. You can't lie in the void.
  17. Entering the Void

    I agree with you in principle. However I think you forgot to add some ajectives with these judgement calls: killing, taking drugs and drinking. Did you mean killing innocent people, taking drugs and dirnking to your heath detriment? In this thread, someone said love and peace. I'd like to add another one: tolerance. Without tolerance, there won't be peace. The real tolerance comes from love. So basically "all you need is love". I do love that song. Have a happy life. If you're not happy, the whole world is sad.
  18. Finally, a voice of reason. If you really believe in the your buddha nature and your "God" nature. Then you should realize that "methhead" is a buddha as well. If you see a beatiful fallen angel from sky with wings, would you help her? You don't know his name. You haven't seen his face (I assume). You already think the worst of him. I used to smoke weed. So automatically I'm a "bad" guy? Have compassion, help him as much as you can spare. Don't worry about the world hunger that you can't see. Help someone who bangs on your wall asking for help. Charity starts at home. It's your home. If you don't do good at your own home, where do you suppose to do good? "To practice virtue is to selflessly offer assistance to others, giving without limitation one's time, abilities, and possessions in service, whenever and wherever needed, without prejudice concerning the identity of those in need." (Lao Tzu) "Giving to others selflessly and anonymously, radiating light throughout the world and illuminating your own darkness, your virtue becomes a sanctuary for yourself and all beings. That is what is meant by embodying the Tao." (Lao Tzu)
  19. Taoist Sexual Meditation

    I don't what is Fa Jin. But I used to pass the Qi between the penis chakra (tip of my erected penis) and the root chakra, back and forth like a energy ball. It'd become faster and faster. And the Qi became longer like solid rod instead a ball. After a while, it'd become automatic. It felt like masturbation without hand or sex without the female part. I always yell "looooook, no hands!" Good old times. Disclaimer: The damn kundalini akwakening ruined my sex drive. (a punishment for my over sexed practice?) I can't do some of these neat tricks anymore. So please don't ask for demonstration.
  20. Kuan Yin Magnetic Qigong

    Very good advice. All the six sensors can be reduced to one: the sensor to measure ecletrical current. (this is just a model, our creator may have more advanced technology, but this model explain well enough). Vision: look at a digital camare, the light energy will eventually be measure by electrical current. Hearing: microphone, the sound energy to electrical current. Sense: pressure convert to electrical current. Smell: Electronic nose. Taste: Electronic tongue generate electric signals as potentiometric variations. All the sense is basically the ability to measure electrical current. It's the same principle as meditation: go back to the source, reverse the light, reduce to the essense, deconstruct self to the true self.
  21. Multi-Orgasmic Man - Am I Doin' It Right?

    BIg misconception. If you do multi-orgasm, you'll soon find out that the correct way to do it is more in sync with your female conterpart arousal process than the "traditional mono" way. It separates the good feeling (orgasm) from ejaculation. Once a man realize that the ejucaltion is not the end game, they'd want to prolong the pleasure instead rushing to finish for nothing. It teaches man about Tao way of sex: enjoy the journey, not worry about ending. It defeat death (ejucalation). So that the end of one cycle (orgasm) is the beginning of a new cycle.
  22. Multi-Orgasmic Man - Am I Doin' It Right?

    Yep, I believe it could happen. But what the chance of that happening? I'd say very small. Yes, opening the orbit definitely is a good idea. But, it may take you longer to open the orbit (a few years?) than to know how to do multiple orgasm. Since sexual engery is very strong, why do you use it to open your orbit? Just an idea. I have no personal experience. However, this is I know. Love conquers all. The intent is very important. Please love your WHOLE body while practice, you should be fine. You can have a whole body orgasm. If you have this in mind, your Qi is unlikely to stuck in one location. When you pump the orgasm energy up to your head, you may have a head orgasm. Then you should be very careful not over do it. Actually don't do it until you have a whole body orgasm or know how to pull the energy down from head. Why don't you do it first? You may already give up the practice before you're good enough to hurt yourself.
  23. Secret of the Golden Flower

    Could you give us a solid daily life example please? What did you mean by "not going along"? If your coworkers ask you "would you like to join us for a couple of beer at 6:45 pm?" You say "no, I will go with you for two beers at a quarter to 7 pm." Or "no, you will buy me martini and drive me home." Or "no, I will drink pure water and watch you and watch me with my inner unborn mind." Or " no, I will go home and meditate." I at times have hard time understand plain English let alone descrypted hidden meanings.
  24. This topic is intended for computer engineers and programmers who's familiar with OS, kernel, process/task, and scheduling. I've been thinking how I died (ego-death) the second time a lot. The buddhaism seems to advocate to take total control of your mind process, one-pointed, passive observor, then order the mind to stop. It sounds simple. I don't think I have the time,patience and discipline to get it to work. In terms of my computer model, "I" is just an important process runing. The Buddhaism method is to train the kernel take control of the scheduling. Maybe it will create another kernel process and program that process to take control of the whole system step by step. Since nothing can be created in my theory, maybe it's a dormant process being activated. Since the new process exist in the kernel space, it won't be bond by regular rule in the user space. Everyone (including God) running the same operating system. And all the kernels are connected via the networks. The new kernel process can exist in different host other than the original host. That's a good method. But can we force a system reboot by other means? Spawn too many processes? Creat dead lock? Use up the memory? I think last time I tricked the system by convincing I was the most naive person, the cunningest person, the most stupid person, the most intelligent person, the most dedicated person, the most lazy person.... And I should treasure time because I should live every minutes as my last minutes and time is no issue because time was a creation of my mind. After that, I lost the ability to make decision, I could decide if I wanted to go or stay, to look left or right, to breath or not, I get out of my room, then I go back, I put on clothes then take it off, I lifted my arm then put it down, I looked left then right, I breathed hard then short. At the end I was totally frozen while my body "vibrating" at fast speed, because I didn't know what to do. I was contradiction myself. I think that state trigger the self protecting machenism of the OS. Effectively I killed my ego. It may soud like a diary of lunatic. Maybe I was and I am.
  25. Allan, could you give us a direct description of your practice, which singpost have you reached and your opinon of TSoGF? Do you really expect anyone spending hours to dig through your six hundred articles without knowing anything about you? I know I'd rather read the original one more time If I have more time. Are you here to teach us or share your knowledge?
