Pcl Posted April 1, 2018 Greetings from pcl in North Carolina.....I studied a hard external Kung fu style for many years and moved to the internal as I got older. I now practice and teach both tai chi and qigong. I have no questions, I don’t think there are any. I have no answers, only you do. I am simply honored to be among those who smile at the face of the Tao. peace pcl 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted April 1, 2018 Hello, Pcl 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 post 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 Pcl, A rare find - a man with no questions and no answers. I think of myself that way sometimes. But I won't deny that I have lots of opinions. I'm sure you will find many to talk with here. 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 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted April 1, 2018 Welcome, the Carolinas' seem an unlikely place to find the dao, but somehow it's found some fertile soil there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Dada-da, That is why you are 'The Wondering Taoist' - an opinionated one though? - LimA Edited April 4, 2018 by Limahong 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pcl Posted April 4, 2018 Thank you Lima. I once had many questions, demanded many answers, sought after reason, knowledge and truth. With a monkey mind and a puffed ego I travelled the world to destroy what I saw as deception and falsehood. Sword in hand and fire in my eyes, I was scary indeed. It took a band of angels to shake me free of this world. It shook me to the depth of despair but after this I saw connection not separation, I saw a cosmic order in chaos, in ignorance and hate I saw hope. I came to understand that we are the immortals, all wisdom is already ours, all truths are already known. Why ask why, We must simply remember. I have no questions, no concern for answers, I simply walk this path admiring the world and smile at this secret. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi PcL, I will smile with you secretly. Are there many others joining us silently? Be simple, compassionate, indivisible yin-yang wholesome... - LimA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
