XAB Posted October 20, 2019 After a few years researching other methods (mainly Bruce Frantzis and hakka methods), I want to give a chance to the 4th and 5th DVD of the flying phoenix. Especially to sitting meditations. I was surprised to see that now the blog has no access ... or it is restricted (what happened?).  I would like to have access to the instructions of Sifu Dunn, they have been useful for the previous DVDs. And I haven't read the other forums for a long time (although I was never registered until now). I'm sure I'll find interesting news ...  Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thelerner Posted October 22, 2019 I wonder if there could be a locked thread where it used to be, with a link to the PPD? In case others are looking for it in the wrong spot. @sean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was an issue addressed by the previous admin to get rid of the scammers and spammers, but it was never a permanent solution due to the fact that it is in the PPJ, it can't be found in public web searches the way that the old thread once was. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the features I envision is everyone being basically a mod of every topic they start, with the ability to add new mods to any of their topics as well (e.g. for this exact scenario, where someone would like trusted help moderating one of their popular, longstanding topics).  Sean  2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
