Sri Nisargadatta a Buddhist? hahahahahaha Spare me your ignorance.

"If you seek reality you must set yourself free of all backgrounds, of all cultures, of all patterns of thinking and feeling. Even the idea of being man or woman, or even human, should be discarded. The ocean of life contains all, not only humans. So, first of all, abandon all self-identification, stop thinking of yourself as such-and-such, so-and-so, this or that. Abandon all self-concern, worry not about your welfare, material or spiritual, abandon every desire, gross or subtle, stop thinking of achievement of any kind. You are complete here and now, you need absolutely nothing." Sri Nisargadatta This is what's meant by "decreasing". Think of the uncarved block.

That's a big question, difficult to answer. You may want to go thru many of the old threads in Tao Bums to see if anything catches your eye and start there. I Am That Meditation/Spiritual Practice Audio Spring Forest Qigong How to Meditate Chu Nei Kung Equanimity

The dogs played briefly, then separated. But when Bear-Bear approached again, Putzi said, the situation changed. "This dog was trying to get the dog down by the neck, the jaws of the husky were around the German shepherd's neck," the lawyer said. When the couple tried to intervene, the dog became aggressive toward them as well, Putzi said. When Rettaliata's brother did not take control of the husky, Putzi's client shot the dog, the attorney said. In responding to the officer's account, Rachel Rettaliata said, "If I were in his shoes, I probably would tell them the same thing." Her pet, also a rescue dog, has a history of being friendly, she said. Her brother told her that the dogs began to play roughly and that the off-duty officer asked him to call off the dog. But before he could move, the officer shot Bear-Bear, she said.

Don't even get me started, man.

Funny that you post this. I first watched it about a year ago, but in the last few days I've watched it 5 or 6 times. There is a bit of an emotional impact to this video. The music is great.

I think you're right. I did the practices back to back for a few days and the chi flow was excellent. However, that was a while ago and I can't remember which one I did first. I think it was Nei Kung followed by SFQ. Usually I do a set of dynamic breathing exercises before Nei Kung. They work well together. neigong.net/SFQ

Shit starter!!!! haha just kidding.

Blasto, Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Master Chu suggests putting the weight on the heels and outer ridges of the feet.

Speaking of Francesco Garripoli, here's a good lecture by him. I agree with Hundun about Spring Forest Qigong and JAJ's dvd. Both are excellent. Stand still be fitis excellent too.

The importance of St 36 "Mi Bing" is closely related to the idea of longevity and moxibustion on the acupuncture point St 36 (stomach 36: Zu San Li in Chinese, Ashi-no-san-ri in Japanese). A Japanese folk tale from the Edo era (1603-1867) about Farmer Manpei tells that when Manpei was asked whether he had any secret to maintaining long life, he answered that he had no secret other than burning moxa on St 36 every day, just as his ancestors had done. It is recorded that Manpei lived 243 years; his wife, Taku, lived 242 and their son, Mankichi, lived 196 years. In recent records, it is well known that Doctor Shimetaro Hara (deceased) used to burn moxa on his St 36 every day and he lived to be over 100 years of age.
