    Yeah I was sort of thinking the same thing. Do you see any ways to improve the current banner (the one in my sig)?
  2. LoL it's cool.

  3. Nei Gong Forum?

    KenBrace replied to KenBrace's topic in General Discussion

    That's why I have a mod team.
  4. I say I am level 0 because I haven't finished completing level 1. That doesn't mean that I know nothing about neigong or have no experience with the meditation though.

    Thanks!
  6. Mo Tzu ... Zhang Sen Feng ... Bodhidharma ... May Yung Chen Pa Lok Nen Liao Tsu Tong John Chang That's about as much as I know about the Mo Pai lineage history.
  7. I agree.
  8. The reason he didn't try to heal him was because Chang doesn't heal cancer. He CAN heal it but he risks killing the person on the spot when doing so. I can't remember exactly but I think he tried it on like 10 people in the past and ended up immediately healing 3 and killing the other 7 on the spot. Numbers might be a little off but I remember that he killed most of them. Not only did the people loose their live but it also probably gave Chang bad karma.
  9. The only difference between western and eastern Mo pai that I am aware of is the fact that they have access to all 72 levels while the west only has the first 3.
  10. Levels 1-3 aren't closed and I am sure that doors would open for a level 3 that aren't possible for a level 0 like me at the moment and pretty much everyone else on this forum. Level 3 Mo Pai takes you a heck of a lot farther than most other systems which do nothing period.

    Neigong Forum www.neigongforum.com

  12. A lot of questions

    KenBrace replied to RookieIAm's topic in Daoist Discussion

    I've always wondered where shen and jing come to play in neigong and specifically Mo Pai.

    Yeah mostly me, Leo, Dorian, and MPG right now. The forum has a total of 10 members at the moment and is receiving an average of one new member per day.

    Hillarious banner MPG came up with.

  15. Are you a Left Brain or Right Brain Bum?

    KenBrace replied to GrandmasterP's topic in The Rabbit Hole

    I was 69% left brained and 31% right brained.
  16. I sort of joined your forum on a whim. Haven't actually been on it since I joined.
  17. You can't do a days work and get a quality training session in all in the same day. In fact if you're like Chang a training session can last several days at a time. Boss isn't going to like it if you don't show up for 3 days. Best to work hard now and retire early so that I'm able to devote hours and days at a time for deep quality training. Twenty hours of training per week isn't bad especially when you consider the quality of training. Also I currently do and plan to continue daily meditation but it won't be the quality that I get when I can devote an entire day. When I say that I'll only be able to train on weekends I mean that I'll only be able to get QUALITY training on weekends.
  18. I'm not attached to my body. I simply wish for death to become a transition rather than the end. Death will be like moving out of an old house.
  19. Good for this life but useless after your death. I got my ideas about the afterlife from the one man on Earth that is extremely advanced and came forward to prove it. Mo Pai isn't a religion. It is a technology and a practice. One that I practice with the greatest effort whenever I have the time. Just yesterday I broke through a problem that I had been having during meditation and made it deeper than I've ever gone. I'm not just a dude sitting around on the computer all day preaching my gospel. I practice whenever I get the chance, and I practice hard. You know why? Because even though I believe that what Chang says is true and I believe that Mo Pai is a valid system that will end rebirth, I still won't know for sure until I experience things for myself. My greatest fear is that I will die before completing a high enough level to preserve myself after death. This is why I work hard on finishing school and studying for a Cisco exam I plan to take at the end of this summer. I need to establish a solid financial life so as to retire early and train 10+ hours a day for the rest of my life. Until I retire I will only be able to train during the weekends. Chang said that after death spirits go through a stage that the either gives them what they were denied during life or gives what they deserved for the evil during life. After this stage he believes that all spirits return to God for a time but eventually are reborn. I can find the quotes from The Magus of Java that talk about this if you want me to. I have no problem with the above view, but as always unless I experience this for myself I won't truly believe it.
  20. Humility won't do you any good after your death, but if you're not conscerned about that then go right ahead and keep cultivating humility, patience, etc. If attaining good character traits is your goal in life then I wish you the best of luck.
  21. I see. It's good that you've created the life you wanted. I plan to work hard and retire at 40 as well. If you're completely satisfied with living your life and dying not worried about the afterlife then more power to you. This argument will get no where. Our goals and ideas about life are as different as night from day. I feel that in the grand scheme of things you have gained nothing in your 33 years of practce. It really is just a form of entertainment for you. Like a hobby. None of you people seem to be conserned with the big picture and what comes after your death. That's cool though. Good luck on your path.
  22. 33 years isn't a short time. I am sure you invested many hours in practice. But what exactly do you have to show for all of it? What have you gained?
  23. No need. I am aware of May Yung Chen, westerners being expelled, etc. I don't believe they had anything to do with Jim's prostate cancer however. May I ask how long you have been in this (your years of experience)?
  24. joebalst, I suspect that after completing the fusion of yin and yang you are able to work with chi directly. After the fusion it is my understanding that you become a new being and can work with both yin and yang aspects of reality directly. The higher level you are from that point the more clearly you can feel chi. I could be wrong on this but it's what I've gathered from reading Jim and Kosta's books. I would presume that a level 40 Mo Pai could cultivate more chi during a waking state then a level 1 could in the borderline state. Once again this is just a theory though. I do know however that during the early levels a person cannot feel chi during a waking state. And just because you don't practice Mo Pai doesn't mean that your spirit is somehow different. You still need to be at a certain level of developement to begin to be able to experience chi directly while in a waking state of consciousness. The system you practice is irrelevant.
  25. You (yes that includes me) can't quote personal experience because to others it doesnt hold water. Lots of people claim to experience lots of things but most of it is fake. A boy claims to have went to heaven and back, another claims to remember his past life. Apostolics claim to speak in tongues and experience the holy spirit while Green Tiger thinks his shaking is due to Lomaxs chi power. Deluded morons on YouTube claim to feel chi in 20 minutes and make chi balls or whatever. The list just keeps going. Peoples personal experiences dont hold much water with me unless I have seen my own experiences replicate theirs or I have seen external evidence for their validity (Chang for example). I believe the stories that John Chang tells because his abilities can be seen externally and tested. Since I cant demonstrate any outward abilities my personal experiences mean nothing to anyone besides myself. I therefore do not have the right to state facts based on my own experience. This is why I quote Chang & what he taught his students. Dont think of it as my word against Spotless. Think of it as Changs word against Spotless, yours, MooNiNites, etc. You people tell me I am arrogant and in the same breath tell me to back up things with my own personal experience. The Magus of Java isnt my neigong Bible. It was written by a student of Chang who has demonstrated under controlled conditions that his abilities are real. Yahweh hasnt come forth and demonstrated the fact that he is God. The Bible therefore is taken by faith. Chang did however come forward and demonstrate his abilities, so what he says isnt taken by faith. If you, Spotless, or anyone else stepped forward and demonstrated Chang like abilities then I would take your experiences and what you say as relevant and very possibly true.
