BaguaKicksAss Posted August 17, 2014 Retreats not run by the lineage head for 2/3rd the price of those run by the lineage head? This might be a bit of a hard sell... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bamboo Posted August 19, 2014 BaguaKicksAss, Although the tuition is similar in price, the cost of learning the fundamentals of the system would not be anywhere near the price of going to see Master Wang. The idea is to make it affordable for those who cannot find the $9,000 to go to a 20 day fasting retreat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MooNiNite Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) wang's 10 day retreats are about 2,000 euros for tuition this 9 day retreat is 999 euros so half the price source: http://longmenpai.eu/forums/topic/european-seminar-2014-held-in-romania/#post-2714 Edited August 21, 2014 by MooNiNite Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jox Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Not all!! Many just got some methods. Visitor, student, disciple and successor. The four stages of interacting with a master. Only the successors get the whole teaching. Interesting ... What are main requirements to go trough stages of visitor to student, student to disciple, disciple to sucessor? Probably there is going to be only one or two successors ... Peace, Jox Edited August 22, 2014 by Jox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamboo Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Hey Jox, It is fairly basic information, nothing esoteric. Visitor - is the stage when you first go to see a master. If you never return and stop practicing you were just a visitor. Student - is the stage when you repeatedly return to practice with that master. Now you are studying with them consistently. Disciple - is the stage when you are formally accepted into that school or lineage. Either by requesting or being offered. Successor - you are chosen by the master to be the school or lineage successor. With Master Wang most of us are at the level of student, I am not aware of anyone who has been formally accepted as a disciple within this branch of the LMP. I must hold up my hands and say that my knowledge of the upper echelons of this lineage is far from exhaustive though.
