Gerhard Posted April 4, 2020 Hi there, My name is Gerhard. I have practiced various martial arts since my teenage years. I have also practiced various spiritual traditions over my lifetime (both Eastern and Western). I 'm well into Middle age and these days I practice mostly Taijiquan and Southern Mantis styles. I learned some basic qigong and Neigong (health and martial) over the years. In recent years I have been spending more and more time doing Tibetan Buddhist and Daoist practices and meditation (both sitting, standing and moving). I'd like to use the forum to supplement my practice, learn and discuss some of the finer details of practice, and learn from others. Best wishes, Gerhard 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thelerner Posted April 14, 2020 Welcome, Gerhard 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. Though it boils down to be respectful. No name calling or trolling. Post as if your mom's looking over your shoulder. 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, Michael and the TDB team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
