sifu wolf Posted April 29, 2008 Hello to the rest of the tao. This bit has been an ordained taoist monk (mystic) living in monasteries deep in the mountains of Tibet, northern China and northern Thailand for over 35 years. This skinbag is now head trainer at Tao Wu Shin Temple in Australia. Unfortunatly this is the first computer these fingers have touched, so its all one finger typing for now and bad spelling. Please bear with. My students call me wolf. As my computer skills improve i hope to be able to chat with other liberated minds. Till then.

Taiji Bum Posted April 29, 2008 Welcome to da Bums. I dont know how liberated I am but this bit looks foreward to chatting with your skin bag. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shontonga Posted May 8, 2008 Hi sifu Wolf, My name is Shon Tonga ='s grey wolf : ) It is nice to meet you. i don't know very much about the "religious" role of taoism (sorry i don't know how to word that better!). It will be nice to hear what you have to share. The computer skills will come quickly with interesting conversation, am thinking! Enjoy! Â Nice to meet another who's been given a fuzzy sort of name. Have been told many times that we're all just bags of skin filled with dirty water... till we dry out to dust! Kinda seems true ? Â Stay well, Shon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick Brown Posted May 8, 2008 I have a video of a master doing Tai Chi which I watch at least once a day as I lay on my couch. Â Honest! Â Actually I just walk up and down stairs all day long. Â Look forward to sharing insights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shontonga Posted May 8, 2008 I have a video of a master doing Tai Chi which I watch at least once a day as I lay on my couch.  Honest!  Actually I just walk up and down stairs all day long.  Look forward to sharing insights.    love it! LOL. was wondering if practice was a wasting of time! ... have had intense homework on walking stairs. good meditation to "see" all the actions to direct sink and to then see rise and so much more   Rather lay on the couch though!!!   would be so nice...yawn!

Shon Hello Shon. The solution is to watch your skinbag on the couch. Theres more in that than stairs. Weight, temperature, thoughts, feelings, breathing just to mention a few. theres a million more. Actually move over, sounds like a nice couch. you got cable? lol Wolf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sifu wolf Posted May 9, 2008 Hey Wolf- You look like Kevin Spacey had he been in THE MATRIX! Â Glad to see you got unplugged Neo! Hello Son. Thank you for your response. This skinbag is thinking the matrix was a documentary. The parallel to actuality is remarkable. Kevin Spacey? Taaa. Regards Wolf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taiji Bum Posted May 9, 2008 Do you always refer to yourself in the third person? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shontonga Posted May 9, 2008 Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?    This tired old child Has had training of sorts at times in this strange life both when young and then re repeated periodically later in life that it was not part of the language used to say I/you/etc. or make distinctions between  plays with ones head/ego/your word here  ( *I* Like playing with distinctions and "separations" because of it )  It's always fun to see others that leave out or don't bother to use those words.  Sweet!  also have had training not using adjectives Love to use sparkling adjectives! or dirty dingy scuffed up ones ?  and also to not use punctuation!!!!  ... I am a happily confused Rebel!!??!!  See you! Shon  was courious also, though, if it was a part of "training" ? always wonder about folks stories. Stay well all!

shontonga Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) Hello Shon. The solution is to watch your skinbag on the couch. Theres more in that than stairs.

sifu wolf Posted May 20, 2008 Do you always refer to yourself in the third person? Hello Darin. Yes. The Tao, as you no doubt realize, is one. All that there is. The so called self is a bunch of thoughts and concepts. Every me, my or i only serves to separate from the one even further. Its a lie. If you can sit back and watch the self, then you are not it. You are the watcher. Your questions are refreshingly direct and unassuming. love real curiosity it shows selflessness. nice talking to you. Wolf 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
