But this means "elixir" and "field". Nothing in common with contempoarary chakra ideas.
-
I have never heard about it. Can you give the link for this source where you got this information?
-
Yang style is very simplified one. But it may be good for health promotion. There is no neidan in it these days. Better to look somewhere else if you are really interested in "internal arts"
-
These ones are not chakras. For example, what "dan tien" means? What chakra does it relate to?
-
Alright. May be he teaches "northern" daoist path now. He is always looking practices from authentic schools trying to adopt it to his own goals. I can't say that everything he teaches these days is wrong, but from what i have seen in his books were completely wrong methods
-
Alright. It is good to believe something. Christians, muslim people believe in immortallity too. But may be your case is different. I only wonder how you create "immortal fetus" by work with imagination? How does it work with preheaven qi?
-
Legit for whom? How many immortals this "legit" method produced? And what is the goal of the daoist arts in your opinion?
-
I still have the question how it correlates with authentic daosit texts and authentic daoist schools?
-
What style he teaches?
-
You describe the effects from post heaven qi stimulation. This is akin to doing gym with heavy weights. Your muscles will grow and you will enjoy it for some time. But it creates blockages in preheven channels and preheaven qi depletes.
-
It depends on one's age and quantity of Ming (inborn preheaven qi). If one has a lot of it the negative effects will be postponed for some time. Every time when somebody is trying to use breath forcefully or uses vizualizations, or holds the breath with stomach pull ups etc, the person naturally depletes his Ming. But one might have some positive feelings from it temporary but in the long perspective it will deplete Ming and will create blockages in channels. It is not necessarily that that person will go mad straight away but after some time quite possible. When you see any "method" in a book try to find the correlations of this "method" with authentic daoist texts.
-
That's the point. His methods are very hazardous and they are not daoist. They were made up by himself.
-
But in Hindu "alchemy" Kundalini is Shakti which arises to Shiva (7th) chakra and there is nothing about Shakti descending back down. There are no chakras concepts in daoist system btw. And what sort of sexual energy you talk about? It would be just raw sexual energy which will make you crazy and sick if you have lifted it up. By no means this raw sexual energy should be lifted up
-
Kundalini awakening in daoist "internal arts"? May be yes, if you got a bang on the head with mantek chia' book
-
Yes, they are good at selling books. What sort of "mantak chia's transmittions " you mean? One must be really crazy to follow mantak chia' book instructions. Remember, please, no any book can transmit anything. This all mentioned above is simple qigong, some of it is good for health at least, but some of it is quite hazardous. I am not sure about Nathan Brine's methods but it seems to be Wang Liping's "northen" sitting methods of meditations. May be best out of all listed above but even this is quite risky path if done without qualified instructions. For they cultivate Xing by loosing Ming which has its own downsides along the way.
-
I would not recommend reading or doing anything from Damo's stuff or YJM for they teach very simplified versions of "internal arts". But it depends on what you are looking for.
-
Alright. The information in regard to what is De is not that much a secret. You can find it in texts. But Xing - Ming interaction is more the secret which is not disclosed to outsiders. One needs special methods for this and it is pointless just talking about it. I just wanted to clarify a little more on this subject because I see some people are in confusion about it. Just theory is useless information
-
I loughed. Write more nosenses please Yes, of course. But the matter is HOW MUCH. It can be low or high.
-
Alright. The excerpt from 仙佛合宗语录 The De is the piece of Dao within a person. So this is not just hun qualities and not mental thinking
-
I am sorry but I cant tell more. This is secret information
-
Yes, but this is just hun qualities. But de (vurtuous power) is something different from it
-
I totally disagree with you. It is nothing to do with any mental activity

Yes, I think No. Virtue is something different. But you are right partially. There are "internal " and "external" virtues but both interrelated. One feeds the other one. But "external" one is not enough for ascension
-
Alright. But what doest it mean? Is it meditation? Can you provide any quotations from his writings in regard to how become a virtuous person?
-
But where this idea comes from? What is cultivation of mind and how is this done practically?
