Thanks for having me....

This forum is a real find. My name is Bob, from Seattle. I've been a serious zen student for 40 years, went to Chinese Medical School for a couple of years, and practiced both Yang and Chen style Taijiquan. Also pretty widely read in the Taoist traditions, and practice Qigong. So I imagine I'll find a lot that will interest me on this site, and perhaps can contribute something useful from time to time. I'm glad that you exist....

Hello merwin64, and welcome.

 

Your membership is approved and we're happy you found your way to us. We look forward to accompanying you on some of the way that you still have to go.

 

Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started.

 

For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day.

 

Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you,

 

Marblehead and the TDB team

 

 

Hi Bob,

 

Fair amount of background, I think.  Yes, you will find many areas for discussion, I'm sure.

 

You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started.

 

May you enjoy your time here.
