Enchanted Garden Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Hello Forum, Feeling blessed to partake in the quest of so many like-minded individuals. My name is Olga, a 30 year old female. I have been reading this forum for a few months, received insights and guidance to questions that have long been awaiting resolution. Now I've decided to register in order to participate in the "Flying Phoenix Chi Kung" discussion thread; something I've picked up recently hoping that this could become my path. My background is in: Christianity (Orthodox and Protestant), Vedic teachings and principles, Russian folklore, some Buddhism, some Taoism, reverence for traditional spiritual texts, lots of prayer (finding God in my heart, nature, great Saints), "Anastasia", Meditation, silent retreats, Falun Dafa, some Tai Chi, Sun-gazing, Flying Phoenix Chi Kung. Special appreciation to people like "Cihan" on this forum - you are a precious testimony that practice of qigong CAN be combined with humility, selflessness, and sincere generosity. Thank you all for your attention. Wish everyone the best on your spiritual journeys! Edited April 27, 2017 by Enchanted Garden 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted April 27, 2017 Hello Enchanted Garden, 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 Olga, Excellent introduction. I was impressed. 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. Marblehead 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
