  1. Contraction Exercise

    Also tip of the tongue slightly touching the roof of the mouth connecting ascending and descending channel. Inhale contract, swallow energy, exhale expand emit energy. I find exhale with contraction is not effective. The proper compression including lifting the perineum floor during inhale tonifies area and massages the internal organs. Inhale contracting and lifting energy up the spine. Exhale expand and descend (or pressing down)energy to lower tan dian. This is a powerful practice for cultivation. Inhale to lift hands exhale to press hands down I don't understand why lifting and then pressing down one would only be inhaling. In my system the instructions given are incorrect. For proper body mechanics and using breath / energy as an efficient hydraulic system the movement corresponds the whole way thru as Inhale, lift or pullback, contract,rising, fire all corresponding. Exhale, expand, press down or forward,water, sinking and so on. When we stand up we inhale when we sit down we exhale yes it can be done the other way but is not natural.
  2. The Tao of Dying

    What if we are waiting to be born and what we call life is death so we hang out and self create things for entertainment. We could have happy lives and sad lives and all these lives could be intersecting and influencing each other. Parts of one life becomes part of another. lives with infinite realness bouncing from one extreme to the other. Then when the individual drop of water that has its own shape for just a moment and creates all these experiences crashes back into the sea again then we say this is life.
  3. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    Alwayson,That is awesome, I was playing with the "VS" thing, saw this thread come alive. For real I have much respect for all divine knowledge no matter what form it comes In. Have a good night
  4. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    You know way more of the hindu system you are living it. Can it = hindu buddhist be compared to christ coming out of the Hebrew system? Is it Enlightened or divine Humans responsible (Buddhas) or is a higher world responsible (Hindu) for the lower world. Is this not a true division in the two systems?
  5. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    This drew back buddhist ground at 600Ad, no grounds for conflict before that. We are getting lost in time current muslim territory was buddhist, blow that statue up.
  6. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    Alwayson tell me how it is. Do you know the history of buddhism in your own country? Hindu and buddhist understanding are light years apart if I offend you hindu root let me have it so I can learn wtf is up
  7. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    Buddhism went well into muslim territory Reason for conflict?
  8. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    As accepted by the government, the official religion, The Official religion has changed in China many times. India is Hindu and Hindu/buddhist there is a fusion or confusion there as well.
  9. Taoism Vs Buddhism

    For a balanced view one can look into the Complete Reality School of taoism a blend of what is similar and why buddhism fused with taoism and took root in china. Taoist is a classical system where men and women are equal, the only form on the planet where the sexes are both equal. Do not confuse confucius with taoist his intention was awesome as scholar and to bring the wealth of taoist thought to the people. confucius school was used and corrupted by the chinese government for social order. Hindu started the mess of two worlds higher and lower Buddha discovered hindu system was all crap. Hindu is the bases of western religion it is not an eastern understanding. Buddha is enlightened human chinese could relate to that even though it is a foreign external thing to china. Hello chinese buddhism fused with taoist understanding. Taoist predate buddhism arriving in 512 AD by thousands of years and well into pre history for that matter. The Chinese were in awe of this formal system of buddhism as in all written down and latter mimicked it. Buddhism lasted in its homeland India for sixty years. Buddhism spread out over an amazing amount of area in its peak.
  10. A few words on Tai Ji Quan

    To me it is directed at external forms of boxing. The verbiage of boxing and gestures, are from the generation that I have learned Tai Chi Chuan from. Then it goes on to direct attention to internal boxers using external strenght and not comprehending the art of softness. 13 36 and 108 has meaning, those numbers being changed loses the original intention and meaning of the forms. He is right from one perspective of Tai Chi Chuan losing its superior boxing method against strength and stiffness. Tai Chi Chuan wants to deal with strength, a lot of force and muscle binding to produce strikes so that the techniques are effective and useful. If we encounter emptiness, no resistance or softness BEWARE stick follow and redirect to another direction if they have not fallen for the original trap. The chess component of Tai Chi Chuan is crucial to success. Using a modern form of pinyin translation of taijiQuan does not match with the other words used in the dialogue, to me I find it odd. Yang Chen Fu is a latter addition that made Yang style famous mainly for teaching to the public and a good personality / lots of students. Yang lu Chan who learned from Chen family is just an amazing legacy. The health benefits of Tai Chi Chuan is immediately noticeable within three month of good practice but the martial skill if not required first as in Wudang system takes a long time and needs to be taught or it is just dancing. I learned in a Temple and it is frustrating in the west to see that Many teachers have no Gung Fu. Even if a student has no interest in martial arts they need to know why they are moving in such away, talk about scattered energy with no direction or purpose.
  11. Brain orgasm

    Right!!!! be gentile with the petals and they drip sweet dew.
  12. Brain orgasm

    I'm glad Brian had an orgasm. Positive results. positive practice. I would use different words to describe the experience. Like gathering at the mountain peak, the flower burst open, sweet dew dripped from the petals filling me with a sea of ecstasy.
  13. If this is a third party condition a patient there maybe too much yang or fire attention given to the elixir fields.Too much attention to a specific practice like breathing or trying to obtain something with your practice stagnates energy causing ill effects. vitality associated with lower field and energy associated with the middle field do not have a physical location. With Negative sensations the method being used should be stopped. Most times the person is trying to achieve something which causes ill effects. Sometimes to just be and lose the attention is difficult. Being a bad host and ignore mind can be a good thing in some cases.
  14. The Tao of Dying

    You are so right about that sree. If I say too much you will know who I am and could use what I say against me. Here comes silent mode.
  15. The Tao of Dying

    sree,I have none of the above issues. My health is beyond mortal, My finances make my neighbors in a multi million dollar neighborhood look poor, I have an exceptional relationship with all of existence and nonexistence and my emotions turned into pure virtue. Thank you for asking
  16. The Tao of Dying

    This is Mister Wu I am having a Before death experience. Inanimate objects can show me things. Living things do not all have brains, you should be able to relate to that sree. If not all living things have brains but do what they do naturally, Then every living thing has consciousness. Is there fire inside wood? Who discovered water? why does earth support everything? Why does metal cut wood. Why does fire boil water are they having sex? Is God gay, why is he not married? As I said before I'm having a before death experience. I hope this does not kill the thread or is it all ready dead? like beating a dead horse.
  17. The Tao of Dying

    I have been dieing to say something because it is so dead on. It may stop you dead in your tracks. You may die laughing after hearing or is it reading this. This mighty mud ball of a world burdens us with a body and people say life is a blessing. If life is a blessing then death must be a blessing too. After hearing the Tao I could die at any moment. I killed my self so there is nothing left to die and whose body is this? The Tao is to die for every one seeks it and it is in plain view. Plants have consciousness they turn to the sun. Where are plants brains? My brain is ridiculous and stupid so I gave up thinking so much because it exhausted my spirit. Now my spirit is tranquil, calm and loves life. My ego is pissed off after losing control, my ego loved making life difficult and death.
  18. Taoist proof that we can't ignore

    Immortal, mortal like water and ice one minute one can be mortal and the next immortal and then can change back again so many times in a single lifetime. Religion can be for mortals who have lost their own way. What Taoist call immortality, Buddhist call enlightenment. What makes a mortal, birth and death, beginning and end. What makes an immortal, no birth or death, no beginning or end. What is born and dies is the false self, self created. What does not die is the true self that can not be created or destroyed. How can one not be an immortal? Everything is in reach if mind allows for it. Longevity is to live out one's natural years in comfort long or short life does not matter again that is mind ununified. Living in our temporary bodies forever as many think when they hear the word immortality is unnatural. Proof is valid within our own selves. Just because we are discussing knowledge that comes from pre history, beginning before the I ching and before Lao Tzu wrote Tao Te Ching is amazing but not proof of anything. Taoism is a living system not dead words.
  19. Animal Flesh and the Fall of Man.

    Which came first wilderness or civilization? With out one we do not know the difference. We are Gods to a shadow a two dimensional entity. We are responsible for each other and all living things or we could have someone or thing be responsible so we do not have to be. I take full responsibility for the fall and rise, the expansion and contraction, the growth and decay, the liked and the disliked. We cant have one with out the other.
  20. Animal Flesh and the Fall of Man.

    I eat plants so I am better than meat eaters. I eat meat so I am better than plant eaters. I don't eat so I am better than people that eat. I think the fall of man has to do with mind / thinking. When a society is cruel to animals they are cruel to each other, it seems to be a transferable energy. The real fall of man related to food is our centralized, profit not for people's health attitude. When a natural organic living system (our bodies) is given artificial and single extractions of food chemically altered the organic system is injured and the society is poisoned by the energy that creates the unnatural products in the first place. Monsanto can patent modified seeds. The FDA approves food from corporations that produce the food not an independent source. If we want to save man from the fall here is a great place to begin or time travel back in time for "the one" and only reason for The Fall Of Man.
  21. An Altar for Sree

    My Taoist altar has real money from around the world. If anyone needs money they use it. To visually see money in the home symbolizes abundance.I find money around the house and put it on the alter. On Wudang Shan the temples have money all over the place. At Dragon Head incense burner there is a Wishing Bell, you throw coins thru a large chinese coin to hit the bell and make a wish. Tao, yin and yang have many symbolic names the three pure ones is just another symbolic incarnation. Many taoist stories are symbolic in meaning even kids know they are fairy tales. Is a rabbit (yin) really pounding the elixir on the moon (Yin) in the Moon Goddess (female) story That interacts with the archer (male) and can never met? Yin and Yang become separated but are in love in our own bodies / minds and it is tragic if they do not met or are separated. Western interpretation of religious taoism uses its own religious understanding (that is suppose to be real not a fairy tale to explain the system. There are many twisted side roads of taoism which happens when you write stuff down and mimic Buddhist religion.
  22. Chi Gung energy work. vitality, energy, spirit, vitality creates the body (pre birth parents / post birth our own fusion) energy moves body (pre birth the original battery / post birth air, food, water) spirit moves energy. The three treasures do not have a physical location but by association we have the three elixir fields. Here is something wild micro cosmic orbit and brain cell migration in the fetus. brain cell formation / 1st cell is location then each cell after knows the other cells function. cells start to form and travel from the kidney region Ming Men Gate and the last brain cells to arrive are formed near upper lip( the beginning of the descending channel).Our higher functions of the brain are located in the front of the brain (third eye in some, the bright hall in others) The Taoist have a science that makes the west look like kindergarten because of Chi / energy and observing and investigating what is beyond physical manifestation using no technology. This is mind blowing in todays day and age. In the west science has no unification and the unseen is quickly given to god / left out of the equation. Breathing Chi / 90% of our pre birth chi comes from breathing 10% food and water that is why there is plenty of food available or we would have run out a long time ago based on population. The fear spinners want us to believe there is not enough resources to maintain our population for control and profit purposes. If the body does not have sufficient oxygen to power the muscles sugar is then converted into energy which creates metabolic waste which we then must get rid of. Chi is a very general term and specific in application. Chi is the uniting force of Taoist science and why all branches of Taoist science including martial arts speaks the same language. Quantum physics seems to have many similarities to Old Taoist knowledge. Re-discovering things I find the whole thing fascinating, the amount of knowledge known to the Taoist well before any modern technology. Just some thoughts
  23. The Tao of Dying

    Seek answers from the quiet one always present within yourself. Believe wisdom can be found within your self. Do not listen to the fool within yourself. Is all the hatred and pure negative energy of the outside world really you? Is your mind you? Is your body you? Is hate you? Is war you? Is death you? There are many lives here now. What world do you want to live in now? It all has to do with what you identify yourself with. What do you identify yourself with? What makes you, you? Did the outside world make you this Way? Did your gender make you this way? Did your country and society make you his way? When you were six was that you or are you more you now at different age? Death is just as natural as birth deal with things at that time. Why waste time with speculation of a future event that we have no idea of the timing or circumstance which is all mind generated BS in my opinion. Think of something. Mind generates how that is but when we are LIVING it, it is not even close to being as the mind generated thoughts / applied to good or bad event.
  24. The Tao of Dying

    Wanted to mention that time is relative. biological time, clock time, seasonal time, before time, after time, no time. The eternal now transcends time. The mind struggles in the net.Time flies, time is moving so slow.. The mind should be the first thing to get over. The brain wants to think, the stomach wants to digest, the lungs want to breath even our organs have consciousness beyond intellectual thinking. The spirit lives outside of time and yin and yang. Those dimensions affected by time and the laws of yin and yang have been born and have a physical form. So much to this magical time and space we are moving through but I am on Vacation so I'm out of here> until next TIME.
  25. The Tao of Dying

    This is Mister Wu, please pardon my crazy Engrish typing. I love that the lights are out and no one knows me here.I happen to be a very successful business owner. I don't want to be rich or "try" to be rich but Rich I am. There are people that make me look poor like Bill Gates but Bill is poor compared to a number of Saudi Arabians, so its all relative. There is so much more than the intellectual mind.,/' tHat mind is like a filter or a governor on a car so it can not reach its full potential. I seriously do not agree with sree on that point. Farmers represent independent and self sufficient people not needing a centralized system. Health, wealth and happiness. Being Rich in spirit one is not spiritually bankrupt and does not need "things" outside of themselves for some kind of satisfaction. When I walk into a non food store (or don't caPitaliZe a letter) there is nothing I need or want. Ok my car maybe worth as much as a cozy little house and my yacht might be a worth a very nice house and 1 of my houses well I won't go there, I think you get my point of having a full life being spiritual and wealthy. Thank you aMerica and all the other countries and the universe for opening up your treasure house. Its open to all 24/7 and it gives so much more than MONEY It gives what MoNeY cAn nOt Buy.
