  1. I want a diploma.

    That's what teachers are for to help with, to either help you see the signposts and know you have progressed, or tell you you have your head up your behind in thinking you have already "made it". They have been there done that sort of thing.
  2. I want a diploma.

    Ebay.com or alibaba.com . The asian sellers never ask for any diplomas. Speaking of China; you can buy some very nice kung fu diplomas over there!!!
  3. I want a diploma.

    Order online .
  4. I want a diploma.

    I'm pretty sure there are some folks over in (the tourist sections thereof) wudang mountain who would be more than happy to help you out... though it wouldn't be free, and you would have to get out of your chair . Silk pajamas extra.
  5. Should Thunder_Gooch have been banned?

    Yes, there is something you missed, the fact that while he has awesome taste in members and can tell intelligence a mile away, he is most likely a sock puppet of another member.

    Anyone else notice that StrayDog liked this post?
  7. Allow Northern Avid Judo Ant to Return

    We have a 7 page thread about NAJA in the backroom detailing her past history on TTBs that will help I'm sure. PS if anyone is worried, I'm (obviously) staying out of any decision making on this one as I have a very obvious bias
  8. Difference between Qigong and Neigong?

    and an ip overlap...
  9. Allow Northern Avid Judo Ant to Return

    The powers of Bagua, rooting, grounding, Aksijaha, Zhang Zhuan, some extremely talented local counselors, and Bagua again!
  10. Allow Northern Avid Judo Ant to Return

    I was pretty amazed when I went down there this past weekend, how much her Bagua has improved! She practices lots, which is good, and it shows. I was also very amazed that every single time I told her not to talk during the lesson, or not to get distracted, and was extremely strict with her she took it very well and got back on focus. The powers of Bagua .
  11. Practice challenge! :)

    As I said in the thread, I'll take any excuse to get more Bagua in . Especially in the winter when it's cold out. Said by rainbowvein I'm really liking this idea. So every post after this one, I'll do 15 minutes of Bagua/Qigong or Neigong. The amount of posts I do on TTBs is either going to drastically increase, or decrease, I'm not sure which. I mean aside from my regular practice (just so I don't cheat and say well I'm going to do 2 hours later anyways lol).
  12. Practice challenge! :)

    What I mean is, when you have time, do the 15 mins per post. I tend to practice in the evening, even when I make posts in the morning. Also if you are say making posts from the lineup at the bank, I personally wouldn't count those as it isn't distracting from better things you could be doing .
  13. Allow Northern Avid Judo Ant to Return

    There is an actual reason for her ban, it was a good reason (though it was a two to one vote, not unanimous) at the time. See the NAJA thread in the healing section for how much she has changed though (I mean this for everyone), as noticed and mentioned by Ajikasha (sp?) who has been training her in Bagua all this time (as have I when I can make it down there). There has been a major improvement in her situation as well as how she handles herself. If you PM me, or open a thread in the backroom I can give details of why she was banned.
  14. Should Thunder_Gooch have been banned?

    The avatar came about because a few folks were making fun of the whole copper coil/wire on the perineum thing... In case anyone was curious.
  15. Should Thunder_Gooch have been banned?

    Is a public poll, other members will be able to see which option I choose. I think I'll pass on voting.
  16. Allow Northern Avid Judo Ant to Return

    I'm hanging out with NAJA this weekend actually. I'm torturing her with lower Bagua walking, and we are hanging out and having fun . So of course I'm all for it too. She has been much better adjusted lately and things have been going well.
  17. TTBs meetup! :)

    Anyone interested? I'd like to host one . I have hosted many events in the past (not TTBs obviously), and they can be quite fun. Since I travel quite a bit, the dates/places I'm available are quite limited though... and I have talked with a couple of others about which dates they might be free too.... So: April 11-14, Monterey, CA Monterey cause it has awesome beaches (and I know of some which are not used by others much, so good for any meditation/workings. Nice foresty parks too with also half decently secluded areas. Also it is within driving distance of at least a couple of important members (hint hint lol). We can book a block of rooms at a hotel or 2 (one 2 star and one 3-4 star). Basically the rooms are reserved at a group/discounted rate, then each person phones the hotel to get their spot and give their info. If interested please post here with preference of 2 or 3-4 star. 2 star $50-$60 usually, 3-4 star $100-120 usually. I stay in Monterey a LOT, so know some good hotels. Also perhaps house share for some folks if interested (cheaper, has kitchen too), PM me if that appeals to you.
  18. I wouldn't trust an online test, get it done properly (if you are really curious).
  19. Zhongyongdaoist, is there anything you would recommend for someone who has had such intense experiences so suddenly/all at once, to come to peace with it / integrate it?
  20. The "Like This" button!

    There is a firefox addon which underlines spelling errors .
  21. Deep Excavation and Brute Honesty

    Your life is what you make of it, and how you want it to be. This of course can take time to perfect things, but essentially you can take control of it if you wish and decide how things are going to be . It does take a lot of work and is more difficult than anything else, but very much worth it. It is basically making the decision that things are going to go how you desire/need.
  22. I still wanna know which one Dorian is .
  23. I was never quite sure how accurate those tests were, until I read this thread. Though the second set of images way more than the first (from my experience talking with TG). Also, ROFL, they made some of those with TG in mind ROFL.
  24. According to google it is why TG and I can stand each other... go figure! So which one are you Dorian?
