Long Yun

What's up with those pictures?

Recommended Posts

Now people like Spectrum and Dizzydazzle have issues with stuff I wrote.

It's fine. I have issues. We all have issues :lol:

Here is the thing..I don't care what your opinion is of me or what I have written. I don't know you.

 

Listen baby sunshine. When you type words that come out of your wiggling fingertips, speak responsibly. "not caring" doesn't cut it. Threaten someone w/ text and see what a judge says. What you type sticks.

 

Like in that moment that you are ever seeking, those moments that change peoples lives, small things count, words count, the small ones, those words you go back on are the ones you learn from. Those words you can't take back are the ones. Make them count.

 

Those moments where you know something is about to change, and your brother is next to you to help you... to sweat with you, to move or be moved with you by you through you.

 

Every time you type, people take what you say less and less seriously. Does this happen to you when you speak? Is that why you do it here? It's While you get a drink using Maxies wet and wild sprinkler head there are those like Jenny who at the very least demonstrate to you that there is a bigger irrigation system at work.

 

Now someone like Specrum essentially get's upset because Kunlun practitioners don't put up videos of themselves practicing Kunlun which I found deeply offensive [/u] at the time since we were told by our teachers not to do this.

 

I didn't get upset because you don't want to shoot kunlun porn, I got aggitated (yes stirred up) when I took the tyme to type lengthy thoughtful (passionate)replies to your posts and you deleted all your dialog. That really hurt my feelings. That's what it comes down to. Especially after you feign interest with a phone call. I really do care. You don't. You just said it.

 

I don't care what your opinion is of me or what I have written.

 

What a sucker statement. Have some self respect. Mean what you say.

 

I have an entire thread devoted to spontaneous videos. I have posted many examples I have sought and found, I've held dialog for months, I've posted my own practice reels.

 

You're inability to manage to express yourself in a way everyone can go back and read speaks for itself. You can go back and read mine. Really. I'm proud of what comes out of me. Thats because I believe what I write here makes a difference, and I work towards speaking intelligently and concisely the first time around, even if I am annoyed. Which I am right now. With you. Specifically.

 

Then has the arrogance to question our teachers wishes. Teachers who have devoted every day of their lives to practice and I get a little upset realizing I am in a community that is not full of friends and say I won't post anymore.

 

Arrogance. Good work. Expose yourself then. I have. You're afraid and hide behind your adopted "tradition". I show little clips of my work to everyone, for their enjoyment. I work towards highlighting aspects in my practice reels that I don't like about my form so i will remember to work on next time.

 

If I show up face to face to you and your teachers who have devoted "everyday of their lives" to practice, then maybe they will have something "practical" to demonstrate to me in real here nowness. Eye to eye changes everything.

 

As of this very moment you have demonstrated nothing but empti words paper tiger. Every time you speak and delete and speak and delete it means less and less... Wouldn't it be nice if life had a delete button like you use it? But it doesn't because someday we're going to meet face to face. Do you think you can delete your words and "not care"? Nope. Reality is not like that Camelmeal. Now you have to spontaneously problem solve. Thats Life.

 

Then after a moment of reflection I realize I do have many friends here. You can't be best friends with everyone. That's how it goes sometimes. But since I do like most people here I changed my mind and will keep posting.

 

After spamming my thread on spontaneous movement with a "notice on rules of filming" and then deleting all your dialog, I'll keep reminding you until you care enough to coorespond through the medium, instead of manipulate it to your personal advantage.

 

Please go ahead and qoute me before you regurgitate my words. They'll be here for everyone to see.

 

I'll keep reminding you until you care enough to coorespond through the medium, instead of manipulate it to your personal advantage.

 

So to repeat,

"We do Kunlun. We like Kunlun. For proper instruction you owe it to yourself to see teacher "a" or teacher "b" once. If it doesn't feel right to you then don't go".

 

A or B or Repeat B B A B B A B B A L

In my youth I was constantly aware of auras...

 

Thank you for this rare personal account. I treasure it, especially considering how rarely people are willing to describe events like these in public. Again, thanks for sharing.

 

The right question is why do we not see energy all of our lives? and how do we get back our god given right to see?

 

I disagree with this. We have a choice of many different ways of seeing the universe and life. I think none of these choices are more inherently true than the other. Seeing energy is a valid possibility and not seeing it is also equally valid. I think it's far better to learn to transition freely between these different realities than to become permanently entrenched in one of them. Wouldn't it be nice if you could turn on and off the energy sight at will? Wouldn't it be nice if you could move to a different universe with different rules and then back? I think so. Why should reality only be this or only be that way? Why can't there be some free movement between more alternatives?

 

That's how I think on that subject. I like various possibilities, but I don't like the idea of becoming permanently committed to any one of them.

Hey, Cam is a great guy, and I will stand up for him any time. I may have some issues with Kunlun website and how they market things, but people that run it are genuine. So is Santiago.

 

 

 

Muchas Gracias : ) :D

Ok now everyone..let's breathe.

 

Back to basic Taoism. You know the reason you got interested in posting in this lovely discussion board in the first place :)

 

 

Deep inhalation and you belly expands. Deep exhalation it contracts. Feel the love, energy, fullness in your tan tien.

 

Relax..relax..relax.

 

Ok, now picture for a moment that we are all fine just as we are. There is no problem. There isn't anything to argue about. You and me are equally loved and accepted by the universe. Feel it in your heart.

 

All of the parts of ourselves that aren't loving and caring. Feel those parts. breathe and smile into them. Actually feel what is there. See if you can feel it without the mind interupting with dialogue.

 

If the mind interupts with dialogue breathe and smile into that to. It's all good. Everything is fine. We are all cherished and loved in the Tao.

 

We may stray from our original intention. That's OK. Things happen. There is no judge or executioner here.

 

Every single problem here is self created and is an illusion. Can you feel it? Who is anybody getting angry at words on the computer screen?

 

Let's all breathe, relax, forgive and start anew. We all have something positive to offer. Why not explore the positive we can share instead of the negative?

 

It begins with forgiveness. And letting go of our little self imposed version of reality. Speak your mind. Don't hold back. I am fine with it.

 

It's OK :)

Perfectly articulated Spectrum.

 

Nothing to add.

 

Cameron, may you have the humility to recognize your failings in the personal accountability and courage departments as articulated in Spectrum's words and understand the opportunity for advancement in those areas that's contained within that recognition.

 

And know that I Love you. S'pec Spec does too :)

And then "farmerjoe" is creating some dramatic story about Max based on the little that he knows, to justify his fears.

 

Max has a dramatic story but I certainly didn't create it:

QUOTE(lockpaw @ Oct 15 2007, 07:12 AM) *

 

Here seems to be the story so far: Max says some crazy things (reptilian races, immortality) but people are having actual reactions to him.

I would like some one to explain about these reptilian races!

 

http://www.thetaobums.com/index.php?showto...kunlun&st=0

 

As to the reptilian stuff, what people are experiencing is only what is already there. Google "nagas" and you will find info on these beings. At the deepest levels of all mystery schools on earth, these are some of the teachers that come when you are ready.

 

Actually, many forms of beings come to you when you start to open up. Some are very human some are quite different. This is very shocking to some people, but it is what is, so there it is.

 

People from all over the world experience these things and they always have.

 

Exploring the Tao gets weird. The truth is much different than people have been led to believe.

I used to have the impression that Kunlun would be a great addition to most people's practice. I no longer think that. Definitely follow your intuition about it.

 

Keep checking back I'll add more links as I find them again. Joe.

By the way, Max hasn't certified any teachers of Kunlun.
Was he himself certified to teach Kunlun?

 

Other questions to ask:

Is Kunlun a new entity, considering there are plenty of other systems that teach similar methods as a part of their programs?

If the method he learned from has a different name, what authority is there to change it?

And another question I had, is it called Kunlun because it comes from ther Kunlun mountains? My understanding is that that area has many different MA and Qigong practices.

No, the methods are not from Kunlun. They are Maoshan.

 

Max likes the name Kunlun for other reasons. I agree it could be confusing to other's. But I don't have a problem with the name. It's just a name after all. My understanding is he likes using the name since it is like the Taoist Shamballah and represents the top of the crown and the highest point.

 

The original name for the practice is Yi Gong. So if you prefer to use the original name Sifu Jenny uses that's what it is.

the kunlun point is a good point to clear and descend excess wind, fire & yang from the upper body...so just about any pain in the head, really..aside from being a labor-promoting point. :)
