aapclark9 Posted September 14, 2017 Hello everybody, I have been studying Montak Chia's work Healing Light of the Tao and have been practicing the microcosmic orbit meditation for a few months now. It has kicked up many emotional blockages and has been quite an intense journey so far. I am looking forward to going deeper into the Tao. I have begun reading The Secret of the Golden Flower and will continue reading the classic texts. Here i am most interested in finding more information on different Tao lineages and systems as well as seeing others practice journals. Nice to meet all of you, Aaron 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi aapclark9, I can figure what you meant by "emotional blockages". I had similar moments at the nascent stages and I was reduced to tears. Believe their clearances are positive. Move on humbly ... 20 hours ago, aapclark9 said: I have begun reading The Secret of the Golden Flower and will continue reading the classic texts. I have bought a copy of the "Golden Flower" and I have not made any progress with it. However I have scanned its rich resources at TDB. Will do justice to these resources soon. 20 hours ago, aapclark9 said: Here i am most interested in finding more information on different Tao lineages and systems ... So am I ... learning with humility and an open mind. A good weekend. - LimA Edited September 15, 2017 by Limahong Enhancement of sentence. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
