Vanir Thunder Dojo Tan Posted January 8, 2013 hey, i am all with you, however, i have an attachment of sorts to the social aspect of the forum, that we may share with one another our practices and experiences; not yet ready to let go of it myself. Almost, but still learning Not ready for applying new practices as consistently... not that my own are that consistent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff Posted January 8, 2013 Hi Thetaoiseasy, Your stopping to post will be a great loss to the forum. IMHO you are the best and most natural teacher on this forum. Many members try to "point the way", but you give useful and practical advice from a place of true understanding. On teaching in general... Consider that the teacher learns much about them self in the teaching process. Interaction is a two way lesson/learning process. Consider what the "frustration" of teaching your students (and all of us ) have taught you about yourself. >3 + Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Lin Posted January 8, 2013 Porn is highly insidious. I also recommend refraining from masturbating as well as viewing it, as there are so many subliminal embeds contained in the scenes. Its hyper stimulation that is focused on soley the lower three chakras, keeps your ass in the lower nature... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike 134 Posted January 8, 2013 Its hyper stimulation that is focused on soley the lower three chakras, keeps your ass in the lower nature... i can't speak for other ppl but I watch porn regularly. I do it intentionally in order to fight against "kundalini." I figure that the more "energy" I give to the lower areas, the less "energy" is available to go up to my head, causing all my nasty overload symptoms.

ChiDragon Posted January 8, 2013 They felt their "porn practice" was not only harmless, but beneficial. They felt they were tapping and transmuting large amounts of jing to qi with this practice. Yes, this was the worse misleading fallacy for all. It's advisable not the believe such nonsense. However, for those who had done the damage already may practice Chi Kung, the ultimate method of breathing, to cure it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tung Posted January 8, 2013 The qigong I practice is information qigong. The idea is that everything in the universe is a message in the form of qi We are constantly receiving messages from the sky, earth, sun, moon and stars -- as well as our macbooks, that hamburger you ate for lunch, the customer rep you just spoke to, and the new house you bought last month. Furthermore, we are constantly creating our own messages with our thoughts, posture, and emotions. The sum of all these messages is our own internal universe. The goal is cultivate and align our internal universe with the external universe. And the way to do this is living normally and communing with the beautiful messages of nature. I like that part, I was thinking just last weak that when doing pushhands you are exchanging information and the one who has the best perception will have the most information to acct on. And i guess that goes whit every thing around us to. Sure gives me some thing to think about, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clarity Posted January 9, 2013 i can't speak for other ppl but I watch porn regularly. I do it intentionally in order to fight against "kundalini." I figure that the more "energy" I give to the lower areas, the less "energy" is available to go up to my head, causing all my nasty overload symptoms. "Fighting" against kundalini is like trying to drain the ocean with a coffee cup. Your physical and spiritual intelligence is trying to to get you wake up, instead you complain about it and insult your own intelligence. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrandmasterP Posted January 9, 2013 Well each to his own. Whatever floats anyone's boat floats their boat. For me looking at porn (have done in the distant past found what I saw of it to be all a bit 'samey' and repetitive) is a bit like phoning up a restaurant and asking them to read the menu out over the phone and then not going there for a meal. Gotta be more fun making your own rather than watching someone else's performance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydog Posted January 9, 2013 actually I am being a little misunderstanding If I didnt have thew view that spirituality was "good" I would probably be saying EXACTLY the same things as Mike 134, things he has been saying has been resonating with me, just Ive had a relaxed life recently with "a lot of time" to cultivate...so yeh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clarity Posted January 9, 2013 I hope this clarifies my position a bit. Thank you. Awesome, thank you, it does. And not that it really matters, but I agree with your assessment about young men and retention. Cultivating non-attachment, awareness, and perception—you can't really go wrong there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrandmasterP Posted January 10, 2013 Serious question addressed to those doing this cultivation. I have an abiding suspicion that much that passes for celibacy discourse etc stems from either lack of opportunity or repression. I would like to be wrong, hence the question. Not a few male cultivators here are relatively young and most of us are men. Call me old fashioned but I have noticed that men do tend to take a healthy interest in sex. It's part of life, natural and we'd be snookered as a species if that wasn't the case. I'll attempt to rephrase the Q a bit and elsewhere so as not to derail this thread.

skydog Posted January 11, 2013 Thanks again for this post, it is a helpful thought to think that porn creates negative entities in you (even if you did say it was conceptual) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
i am Posted January 11, 2013 I won't be discouraged by that, even though it's my same age... My path has always been parallel, in a way, to a path of cultivation, but never actively engaged in it until now. I'm off to a late start, but not so late as some, I'm sure, and beyond that, I'm sure there's a reason, for me, why "now" instead of "earlier", so no regrets.

Birch Posted January 11, 2013 How old are the women that these 'dinosaurs' are having sex with? I got very upset at that Meditation mastery link that mentioned the selection of the women. And some of the 'misunderstood' practices relative to very young Thai women/girls. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
