Chicken is the most glorious of birds The most wise of all sages does not even spend his time in this thread Old man sacrifices eyesight for a healthy prostate

Yet the bird soared great heights and travelled across continents while the ant toils its entire life as a slave in the matrix of the hive. I know which life I would rather have

Even if an ant eats a bald eagle, it will never achieve the greatness of a street pigeon

Wishful thinking because the ant and it’s extended family are already digesting in the bird’s stomach

White ant only marry high level cultivator

White ant has trained very hard

An ant telling a bird that flying is overrated

So sorry for your loss Steve

Latest interview by Rudi:

Welcome!

Why don’t you have access to Sifu Terry? You can easily tag him in the Flying Phoenix thread or send him an email to ask

What system do you practice? I do Authentic Neigong by Rudi, and also do Flying Phoenix Qigong by Sifu Terry Dunn and some Tan Tao Pai qigong. Outside of this I don’t really have any time for more neigong practices. Soon I will be starting wing chun and the instructor also teaches some of Damo Mitchell’s neigong. I’m gonna try them out of curiosity to see how it compares with what I’m already doing, but probably won’t make it a part of regular practice outside these classes.

Check out this video he does three systems! I haven’t watched yet but I do one of the same neigong systems that he does.

It depends on the systems. Some can be practiced with others, some can’t.

Not purely from qigong, but I believe qigong helped me get much better results from laser surgery than if I didn’t do it. Basically my eyesight was so bad (-11.25) that after surgery I would still have a prescription of around -2 and still need glasses, but after surgery my eyesight was perfect or as close to perfect as can be. The eye surgeon couldn’t explain how or why. These posts here go into more detail and with screenshots of the eye tests etc: Now I don’t believe I could have gone from -11.25 to 0 purely with qigong, but maybe improve it by 2. Usually after doing qigong my vision is much clearer and sharper.

Yes

Hence this entire thread

Let’s just discard all terminology used for thousands of years and call them whatever we feel like 👍 I’m typing this comment with my toes

The irony here is amazing

I would love to see a YouTube channel where you do this

Yes, something similar to it

And are the legs and arms in a certain position according to him, or can they be done in different positions?

First, you must define Zhan Zhuang. If you are 3 different people, you will get 3 different answers, and each of them are convinced that their version is the proper one. Some Zhan Zhuang will be appropriate for beginners, some won’t be. All depends on the exact practice and how it fits into the lineage.

They know, and they are watching
