  1. Pencak Silat

    Excellent. I know that the Fillipino Arts were influenced by Spanish Fencing, and I'd always wondered if the same was true of Silat. Interesting similarities and differences. Fascinating history. http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:s6QzX...lient=firefox-a http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:LZTlf...lient=firefox-a <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
  2. Pencak Silat

    Great clips. How does Geometry factor into Pencak Silat? Foundational, Abstract, Theoretical, Principal Angles, Freeflow? Silat looks very exact, and yet at the same time, it has an intuitive quality to it. How does Spanish Fencing influence Silat?

  5. David Verdesi's (David Shen's) Early Training

    All those practices, no matter how bizarre, exist in many semi-esoteric schools all around the world. I'm not saying they yield any insight but perhaps insight yields the practices? Anyway it depends on your spiritual motives and what you expect to find once you get to the top of the mountain. As for ancient teachers, well, who knows? Probably better to be remain sceptical but for those that have realised the truth of reincarnation... it's the form of communication that always brings the biggest doubts. I personally don't buy channelling although I can't rule out masters teaching through dreams or OBE's. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well said. Open minds find the Summit of the Mountain.

    If you click the reply button you will see the method. Damn, this was a good idea. Thanks Xienkula1. Beautiful finds.Thanks for posting.

  18. Taoist Music

    Magnificent. Sublime. Well chosen. Thanks for posting. We could have an opera thread itself for that matter. ________________________________________________________________________________ "Not sure if this qualifies as Taoist, but then again, why not, if magnificent and sublime are involved." Did you mean magnificent or sublime in reference to the John Denver and Clannad songs (As in, if those songs can be here, why not this.) Or to the magnificent and sublime qualities in general for this topic thread, or to the opera link you posted. Just curious. (Sometimes people feel nervous sharing what they like, I wanted to give a wide scope, hopefully some people would post some great things, that have gone unnoticed. All's well. Take care.
  19. Scroll down to "Sean Denty" and "3rdlevelMopai". (At the wongkiewkit.com link) 3rdlevelMopai posts here under the name "mopaistudent" (his name is Jim). He and Sean have been very forthcoming with there experiences Hopefully Jim and Sean will share more in the future. http://www.wongkiewkit.com/forum/archive/i....php/t-289.html http://www.thetaobums.com/search.html&...sult_type=posts http://www.thetaobums.com/John-Changs-1st-...dent-t5393.html <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKuXuDCPfds&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKuXuDCPfds&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKuXuDCPfds&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
  20. How To Embed Video 101

    Go to youtube, or wherever and highlight "embed", then click copy. At message space click paste. (No need to click "LINK ICON" at top of message space unless you want to put a link to page, and if you do want to , just place it under copyed text.) In front of pasted text type youtube and at end of text type youtube. (youtube before this "<object" and /youtube after this "object>" Most importantly, place large brackets around youtube at the beginning (and at the end youtube) and in the end youtube put a forward slash / before the youtube. (in the brackets). Only place large brackets around the word youtube. At the beginning youtube and at the end youtube. Remember: Large brackets...not this ( ) or { }...(just click the keys next to "P" without using shift) That's it. You're all set. Take care.
  21. How To Embed Video 101

    Don't worry. I'll explain. (Theres nothing worse then that I've just had something shown to me and I still don't get it feeling. LOL) All you have to do is minimize taobums, click your desktop search engine icon (like Firefox) go to google, then youtube, find video, then look to the right hand side where it says embed, then right click to highlight, then left click to copy, return to taobums, (maximize) then just paste (no linking necessary) in the message space. Put (youtube) in front of text and (/youtube) after. Just remember to use large brackets, and not ((( or ))) or {{{ or }}}. You'll see. If you still don't, don't worry in the slightest, I'll walk you through it.
