Breathe and think about things. This is the consequence of disrespect. I am sorry you were kicked out but you disrespected two schools. Two schools that helped you from what I gather. Rudi from clearing you of any blocks and providing proper practice and Brother Wu who gave you exposure to demonstrate any ability in the first place. Give respect to the groups of people that helped you. Maybe you will find another lineage that can help you with your education. But right now, please be respectful.

Iâve been around the block for about 25 or 30 years and I have seen major western schools come up and many western schools close down (some legitimate, others not so legitimate). From the days of the wenwunkan (and the foundation training school opened by David Verdesi in 06) to other ancillary schools that hope to teach eager westerners for whatever reason (usually a gateway to GMP or other TLD or what not). Thereâs always a few people who tend to steal the teachings of another and try to market it to either teach or make some extra money. Or to become special Regardless I do agree that the behaviour of neigongdisciple isnât making the opinion very good. It seems like it is validating almost everything Rudi has said. It also completes a picture of his/her journey of sorts too - one that excluded the person that put you in contact with the healers in the first place. Whether it is martial arts, learning to cook, or even schooling, it is important to give respect and thanks to where you learned from (even if it was a pretty bad place). My large concern with what neigongdisciple has said is I donât think respect is monetary actually. Iâm not sure where this message indicated that a simple I learned from these teachers would require a financial recompense. This does create a large misconception from the messages you have shared of what Rudi asked for. That being to be honest about where you learned from. You were honest that you learned from Wu, correct? You referenced Brother Wu, did he pay you? Did you ask for that level of agreement? I would imagine if you did he wouldâve laughed or asked one of the senior students to handle you. Perhaps the sentence here is something you didnât mean when you typed it which if thatâs the case it is fair and a misunderstanding of things. However, it not only makes you seem like the person that is money hungry, but it also makes you seem like your journey is for monetary recompense (and thatâs ignoring the other major issues discussed by lineage heads and their tudi). Another troubling aspect of the post is: I watched a few of your videos surprisingly enough and you called the dan tians the same as chakras. That may have been an innocent mistake perhaps but theyâre not the same. But it would appear in some of your videos youâre combining things in ways that shouldnât be combined especially from gengmen pai. We are told to never sit in full lotus (for instance) because the channels in legs arenât fully opened (for instance). There are several other misconceptions and inconsistencies I see in your videos. Are you sure the statement you are arguing in response to Rudi isnât telling on yourself? True you may not be opening up a school, but you do have a small following of people who want to learn what you know and do what you can do (or at least get to the point to where they feel like they can). By being intellectually dishonest about some of these things and other aspects (e.g. not thanking other teachers and what not), arenât you being a bit insincere and selfish? Especially in a place where everyone helps each other? I sadly see this going down a very dangerous path. One I have seen countless times in fact. A person with a bit of skill branches out and is not transparent concerning the how they got the skill teach others practices that will do very little beyond getting a bit of foundation. Anyone who was involved in the early 00s knows what I am talking about. Before any of that happens, try to actually make amends and show the proper respect because from what I gather without Rudi you wouldnât even be connect to GMP or other healers. And it shouldnât have to take such a public outing for it to happen. There should be something inside of you that wants to be thankful for what you have and the people who have helped you along the way. We are never really doing this work alone. And we have people that help us out. Even if we have bad experiences, we are still thankful for what they have done. Be thankful for what Rudi has done for your development because it seems like he did a great job. Other GMP guys in our Romanian/Greek group also are thankful for what Rudi has done too

Training with a mysterious master - journeys beyond the known book?
diggorydogood replied to diggorydogood's topic in Daoist Discussion
I definitely agree. The story also expands your thought processes to what is possible and the world itself is really REALLY small. True Rudi isnât my teacher but he made a damn good book thatâs an excellent read if you are cultivating with any lineage. -
Training with a mysterious master - journeys beyond the known book?
diggorydogood posted a topic in Daoist Discussion
Hi everyone I have very little exposure to Rudi or authentic nei gong (as I have different teachers) but I noticed that Rudi published a book on amazon. Itâs called Training with a mysterious master - journeys beyond the known. I think the book was a brilliant read and tbh I havenât had chills like this since the magus of java and I frankly couldnât put it down. It would be insane if the experiences Rudi described actually happened. Has anyone read it? Apparently it has some practice stuff as well as secret methods coded in the book and I was wondering if anyone found anything about it.. Thanks
