  1. The Kae Chi Society?

    Sure I know about it. It falls under one the following categories: 1. Cult 2. BS 3. Both
  2. Turmeric

    It's a moving substance. Love it in the curries I cook weekly. Well, turmeric is a very common ingredient in Indian cuisine. Herb properties here: https://www.americandragon.com/Individualherbsupdate/JiangHuang.html
  3. Really? No, not really. This does: "The earth is very thick. Lowly, below all else, it bears everything and nurtures all beings. It can bear even the weight of the great mountains, and it can endure even the erosive force of great waters. It tolerates being pierced by plants and trees, and it submits to the tread of birds and beasts. It does not mind being cheapened by pollution." Awakening to the Tao (Liu I-ming) Earth corresponds to Spleen and Stomach. A strong and healthy Earth will result in developing strong limbs. This is gong fu. For example: He Jinghan's channel is LITTERED with PRACTICAL WISDOM. All his drills will give you a STRONG EARTH, the key to good health and longevity. TCM and Ancient Chinese (Taoist) wisdom.
  4. I would disagree with that. To answer that and what you wrote below: You do what I do and MCO not only becomes dust in the wind but the last of your concerns. As I always state in these matters: Find out for yourself.
  5. The whole thing is a "scam" using common terminology. Qi is constantly moving across a vast network of meridians due to the action of the Wu Xing (Five Forces/Elements/Agents). There is no need to 'move' anything as things are already in motion. A different story is blocked meridian flow, and to correct that forget about breathing and still meditation as a sole method, they won't do jack. For that you need to do serious Daoyin exercises and IMA work; loosening joints will open blocked meridians.
