Yeah every year we go to a place called storm moutain center for a family reunion. This year I did some taichi under some trees and meditated in an old abandoned mine.

I am a grnad total of 19 years young.

I was trying to be serious but I am keeping it there just for the joke aspect of it. In the future I will try and make a way way way way way way better looking video.

Oh btw how old do i look?

So I made my first video and put it on youtube, I was wondering if you guys thought i looked burdened or if anything looks wrong with me?

Please ignore the words they are on yogameditation and i was trying to show my view of him but it turned more into a rant.

Anyone know of any books/dvds on this martial art? my google fu is not working right now.

Ps an urumi is an awsome weapon.

It is sad to hear this, do you think the shaolin monastery in china might do something for him?

I meen no disrespect in posting this but this was one of my favorite clips of him

RIP David Carradine

Anyone else ever feel a special connection with this movie?

I know it has helped me feel better when i have been depressed and such

Anymore i wana see more. It looked like a good kids self defece show type thing.

I would not like this thread to go this way but is there anyting we can do about him being a conman? that has repercutions for him.

Now I know this guy is not big here, and I dont beleive him to be a true master either but he does know sometings about chi and such. I am just wondering where you guys think he learned all his stuff you think he has real masters or did he just learn it all from books? I would ask him myself but he does not answer your questions if ask stuff about his life.

Oh and incase anyone new sees this

When i first got into the martial arts i had some good teachers but my last couple of teachers have not been certieifed to teach, but now it looks like i am in the same boat. I would like to teach taichi but i dont have a certificate or teachers permision. My one question in this post is does one need a certification to teach meditation?

thanks for being there when i needed you everyone, i am just feeling depressed right now. cause i have lived in the same town my whole life and i have not been able to do the things i wanted to do i have always had to settle fro dvds or such when it came to stuff i wanted to do like the martial arts cause we dont have instructors in my town who teach xingyi or bagua. We had one instructor he was very good he taught me tai chi but he moved away. and his student he said could teach did not keep up the tai chi. and we had another tai chi teacher in town but he was not certified to teach and in my oppinion not ready to teach.

I guess i am just sayiong thanks. I hope the second paragraph makes scence.

wow that was like my second post here this thread.

So basically I live in the United States and here certain drugs are illegal like marijuana, I got to thinking well i know they were used in chinese medicine for a while. So do you think that if they were legalized that they would be used in traditional medicines?

Remeber post your thoughts to dont just vote.

PS my first poll.

I just got back from a personal retreat thing, I rented a motel room in town and stayed there for the week. I did taichi and stuff and also meditated for 2 hours each day. I found out some things about myself. I also learned some pacience.

Alright I have been brainstorming and in the town I live in there are alot of hotels and I was thinking about using one of them, wether buying one or just renting rooms in one. The hotel I am thinking of useing is a holiday inn and it has a restruant so we would be set for food. I have yet to talk to anyone in the hotel about this so this may be a dead end.

If this does work out we may be able to have retreats on my friends land.

Some basic rules I have hashed out may change

People must have private medical insurance.

No alchol tobacco or illegal drugs.

During the week of the sturgis rally would be a week off.

All in all try and be polite.

Basic daily schedule again may change.

7-8 am get up

8-9 am breakfast

9-10 am private meditation

10-1030 am group taichi

1030-11 private martial art/yoga/exercise of your choice

11-12 "open for right now not sure what to do here"

12-1pm lunch

1-4 pm work around place

4-445 meditation group

5-6 dinner

6-7 group disscution

7-10 free time

10 bed

So over the last couple of days I have been giving the idea of a commune some thought. I was wondering who would seriously move out to south dakota to live in one? It would be a commune for cultivators, we would have a daily schedule like do taichi at a certain time and meditate at another time. The people staying there may need to pay around 500 dollars a month may go down may go up, I am guessing here cause I have not asked how much the property with the building would be.

Now I also need some feedback from you guys on other things I would need to do in order to start a commune. I am basically new to all this, so I need your guyses help. Right now i have the following on a to do list

1 buy property

2 get people together

3 hash out rules

Now I know that it has to be more compicated than that to start a commune so like I said I need your help.

Thanks, hopefully something will come of this.

So I was wondering are temples alowed to ordain monks in buddhism or is it just monasteries? And if one is a monk can they have other jobs to like being a cook?

I don't really understand this, it is just people who enjoy animals? In sort of a... I dunno. What does this has to do with you feeling like a lion in a human body?

 

Wowee! I'm confused!

Well for some of us it is spiritual and I feel sort of like there is a lion inside of me, but also that I am a reincarnated lion.

Remeber to hit the hd button.

So I decided to check around and it turns out we have a yoga class in the town where I live. I just got done with my first class, it was nice I sweated more than I ever have doing taichi and qigong. So my question for you guys is if the instructer is not cerified to teach sould I continue to take classes from her? She just has been doing yoga for a while and kind of picked it up along the way.

So I found an old yoga documentary and I wana know what you guys think of it.

So last night aournd this time I was watching a how to video on yoga and something in me clicked. It felt like I got it all, that I truely understood that we are one. This feeling lasted for about 2 hours then it went away.

Did I awaken to my buddhanature for a short period of time?

What happened to me?

I play go I love the game.

So like probably 10 years ago my dads friend went to japan with the boy scouts and he brought back some souveniers for us and one of them was a wierd game that i had never seen before, so we put in somewhere and did not think about it for a while then i was watching hikaru no go "japanese anime about go" and i thought about this game so i went to our basement amd found it and sure enough it was a travel version of go.
