FallingMoon Posted October 1, 2005 Hi, my name is Ed, i'm from London uk. I'm 25 (26 on the 19th oct) and single. I'm a relative newcomer to the Eastern arts. I've allways done martial arts but wasn't into the spiritual side till a few years back. I meditate everyday which i've done now for two years. It's a simple counting breaths mind focusing one as well as a heart centre compassion practise my bagua teacher described to me. I do bagua at the moment and chi kung i've learnt from a wong kiew kit book. I'd like to start alchemy but don't know where to begin really. I'm hoping to go to Thailand in Febuary to my bagua teacher Alex Kozma's retreat centre where he is teaching a two week butter from the air training course. This is Tibetan buddhist qigong and meditation spiritual alchemy training. Look forward to talking with you guys and girls Peace Ed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sean Posted October 7, 2005 Hey, Ed. Somehow overlooked your intro here. More English blokes. This is great. I'd say you are already doing some very powerful alchemy by just simply meditating every day, following the breath, bringing compassion into the heart. The foundation of all cultivation IMO. As far as Taoist alchemy, I second freeform in recommending Winn's Fundamentals 1-4. And you can borrow many, if not all of these from The Tao Bums Library. Welcome! Sean.
