LittlePie Posted May 21, 2011 LP - I'll bet your left brain is extended about just as far as it can be....you appear to be tremendously educated. My guess is that the trick for you now is to find a way to switch to the right brain; to be able to embrace things that don't follow logic. This was extremely hard for me - I have been a left-brain detective my whole adult life. Â The way to go in is different for everybody. Mine came through crisis, through alcoholism. Yours may be more of a conscious decision, because you can sense that you are as far as you can get with the left brain. If nothing else, consider working the 12 steps of recovery - that's a quick and dirty way to start the self-realization process. There are also many other ways described on previous threads. Please just be open minded about the stuff that doesn't 'follow' the logical philosophical reading..... Â Very best wishes to you - you're in great company here and many of us are real serious about the inner journey. It will lead to self-realization or actualization, which may be what you're looking for. This is the other half of the coin of being a master of anything. Â To be honest, I am right-brain dominant. You are seeing far more of my creativity than logic. I can only utilize my full logical capacity when I take prescription stimulants for ADHD, like Adderrall. I am taking a hiatus from that medication. I hope to cultivate enough energy through my nei kung practices that I will never need prescription ampehtamines again. I wish to be my own source of energy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cat Pillar Posted May 22, 2011 All right, I recommend to you to read the following thread carefully: http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?/topic/18350-mo-pai-and-immortality/ and then contact Waysun Liao to become his student https://taichitaocenter.com/index.php or his student Gregory James (for learning in Europe) http://www.sevensunstaichi.org/ or his student Gary J. Clyman http://www.chikung.com/ and buy his Nei Kung stuff http://www.chikung.com/nei-kung/ Â This system is the original taoist way to the TAO and has not the dangers of the Mo Pai system...but all or even more of it's power! Â Â Edit: When you decide to buy Gary J. Clyman's Nei Kung, complement it with the informations that templetao shared with us in the thread of the first link above! Â I think this would be a good way to go, LittlePie. I'm saving up right now for Clyman's NeiKung system. I'm going for the DVDs and the Bible...maybe even a weekend of private lessons. I've talked with Clyman on the phone, the guy's a dynamo. Pretty intense and brutally honest. Â Also...you can try out his condensing breathing for free, he's got videos up on his site and youtube that teach the technique. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wells Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) For your info: I ordered the energy cleansing DVD from Liao that templetao mentioned in the "Mo Pai and Immortality" thread. Clyman did not include these exercises in his system but templetao persists in the thread that they are extremely important. templetao doesn't post here or answer my PM's anymore thanks to h.uriahr interference (at least, that's my guess!) so we have to figure things out ourselves. The exercises seem to be there for getting rid of negative outside energy that clings to you. Because maybe there is the possibility to suck this negative energies into your system whith "condensing breathing" (EEEEWWWW!! ). I will give a review in the "Mo Pai and Immortality" thread after recieving...when the DVD finally found it's way through the german customs!
