I thought Damo/Bodhidharma would be common knowledge here and not need an explanation

Who knows Damo is actually a nickname for Damian in the UK, so can’t criticise him for that. But calling yourself Damo and then constantly badmouthing Buddhism is not a good look.

Funnily enough, he used to be on this forum until people started calling him out on his credentials. Some students of the master he claimed to be a lineage holder from came in and said he’s lying about being a lineage holder and never learned long term from their master. Even a friend of his uncle came in and said that he lied about training as a child with his uncle, and that his uncle never met him until he was 23 year old. To top it all off Damo’s mum also joined in to defend him from other posters. Such a bizarre thread:

Personally for me it is the lack of respect for the cultures in Asia that he is making a profit from. I believe if you are using someone else’s traditions and cultures, and especially making money from it, treat it with respect at the very least, not constantly make fun of or insult it. Here is one example: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDaoOfDaoDeJing/s/W31g75fSfM

Yes. Although I would say even 1-2 hours is fine.

I am very interested to hear

If you want to go straight to the real deal like what those stories are inspired by, sign up for this: https://authenticneigong.com/ Here is a sample of what you will eventually develop from these practices:

Yes, in the neigong system I do there is a foundational exercise that is done to work on your channels to develop them. It doesn’t need to be done for hours daily too, or for 5 to 8 years. https://authenticneigong.com/

Yup, it’s not something unique

How so? The thread is asking about people who are doing the course, and he is someone that is doing the course

Try this:

I don’t understand why people will pay for literally everything except this. Do teachers not have bills to pay and food to buy?

Bending the Bows is the most intense practice of the system I reckon, just keep doing it and it will go away eventually.

Selamat datang 🙏

Enjoy! Try asking in the FP thread if there are any SoCal people who can meet up

Thank you @Turnip I can recommend some people if you are willing to travel to South East Asia

The only way to find out is to try for yourself

You can email Rudi to ask

I’m doing authentic neigong too, depending on what kind of therapy you are doing, you might have to hold off on that too

You can join their discord for free to ask questions

No, not Bagus Sifu Luo Kanqi and his students use a machine, I think it’s a modified variac machine that anyone can buy

This actually exists btw

I don’t see why he would post here from the way everyone is acting. If anyone is actually interested, just join their discord and ask there.

I haven’t tried it myself but one of my friends did a foundation course that they used to offer. He said the meditation was very powerful. In the future I would like to learn from them properly, when I’m further along in my current practices and more developed.

Yup, those are other masters that Rudi has learned from and worked with, they requested not to have their faces shown on video.
