nicholas Posted May 26, 2006 Hi everyone, I'm from Malaysia (a small multi cultured country in south east asia) and have been visiting this forum for the past 8-10 months. ....in terms of practice, I am like WAAAAY behind most of you guys here . I envy the amount of time that you guys have to do your practices, not that I am giving any excuse but I leave for work at about 7am and comes home after 7pm.....survival y'know. ...as for my knowledge in chi cultivation etc.....the more i read the forums here, it seems that the less i know. I seldom post on the internet and my English is not very good, so the above might seem a bit dry. That's all for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I spent much of Jan and Feb this year in Penang. And yesterday, back in UK, I finally managed to get hold of some durian to feed my addiction. Only de-odoured Thai durian, but better than nothing. Hope you enjoy the forum. Don't be shy. Ian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian Thanks Ian, I'm from Kuala Lumpur. Read that you were learning from Master Yap, maybe one day I'll try to meet him. Funny that i only learned about master Yap from this forum and there's another master Wong Kiew Kit who is also from Malaysia but is more well known overseas. As for durians.. I don't really fancy them, Funny right , maybe it's because nowadays you can get them all year round. You guys are lucky as there's meditation retreat, chi kung classes ,"ThaPath" scott sonnon thing that you can go to. Here, they think you're out of your mind..tai chi is for old folks and yoga is for weightloss. I don't think i'll ever meet tao crazy people like Sean or Yoda here in malaysia........But there's always thetaobums to go to...... Bye Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrandTrinity Posted May 28, 2006 Could you elaborate on how yoga is for weightloss? I hate to see my parents draining their vital chi reserves when they could do yoga for weightloss instead!? Wong Kiew Kit is a very nice qigong master! Do you plan to attend on of his seminars? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
