  1. Medicine Buddha

    My experience is you can get it from youtube recordings (eg Garchen Buddhist Institute) but maybe better live from a lama.
  2. Arrested Development and Martial Artists

    The light gets attacked by the dark all the time. There is no choice involved. If one has the awareness one can stop the attack and progress to a higher level of peace.
  3. Pangu Advanced Form

    Why not just wait? There is no rush getting to where you already are. The impatience is part of the self that wants results right now but that actually has to go to see what is already the case.
  4. Emotions are the path

    Eliminate desire is a bad strategy, without desire you are dead and have no energy due to shutting down your own system, suppression and repression. Eliminate grasping instead. Desire is natural, just look at life changing all the time. Edit: See what Buddhism says about desire https://www.buddhanet.net/4noble13.htm
  5. Emotions are the path

    Energy healing can do it. One of energies I have access to is a energy / consciousness that make it feel safe / more open to feel emotions, as if you are much bigger than the emotion, so no matter the intensity of the emotion you are always capable of containing it. Thus you can release it so easily compared to all the various meditation techniques I have tried. Basically you are accessing a higher state of consciousness than the state your current system can handle, so basically you are upgrading yourself that way.
  6. Level two and three are in the first Kunlun book.
  7. The shadow self

    Could be, let's say suppressed sexuality, healing that makes you like a wild animal. My experience.
  8. The shadow self

    Shadow self is just an energetic block, heal it and it becomes integrated. We don't need a philosophy on top of it IMHO.
  9. Is Buddhism a complete path?

    Buddhism for some seems like a cult 'don't criticize the leader, don't think for yourself' The endless spamming of non Buddhist threads on how wonderful buddhism is is like watching Christians advocate Christianity? For me there is more to life. Relationships, male identity, passions like interests, hobbies some of which can help overcome suffering not just what Buddhism thinks of suffering. Eg say having no career that fullfills you can generate lots of suffering and steering you towards a more fulfilling life where you use your skills will decrease suffering and increase life satisfaction. The philosophy tends to attract people who think like kids, that life is just about Buddhism, like kids thinking life is just about playing games. Very shallow? Too much pop psychology and too little using your own intelligence and internal compass.
  10. Reflecting on TDB

    Something for me and most likely others here https://www.shinzen.org/how-to-be-comfortable-with-everyone/
  11. Can jing be replenished?

    Says a person with zero interest or experience.
  12. Can jing be replenished?

    In terms of efficiency and cost psychotherapy is pretty bad. 150 eur per hour and how many hours do you need? 10-20? Compared to cheap energetic transmissions for healing methods I have already provided a few times, approx 10 eur for a lifetime of healing.
  13. Can jing be replenished?

    Bak Fu Sunn Yee Gong level 1 can replenish jing and is authentic and very easy compared to neidan methods in my humble opinion.
  14. Your Experience of Standing Meditation

    I did approx a year of standing an hour a day. I farted a lot 😊
  15. Breath % in BFP meditations

    There's also the fact that other systems use breathing sequences also, eg Bak fu Sunn yee gong. A breathing sequence can look like a fp breathing sequence but the energy will be something different. Very mysterious 😊
  16. Breath % in BFP meditations

    If it were that simple there would not be specific static or moving meditations linked to each breathing sequence. For example monk gazing at moon can also be done with eyes closed using another breathing sequence from level 17. How to explain it? No idea 😊
  17. Your Experience of Standing Meditation

    See https://www.amazon.com/Internal-Alchemy-Everyone-Chungtao-Ho-ebook/dp/B07JC96GVR/ref=sr_1_3?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vtVRZxGNrBR-HTwEOiqCWznK81b6PHP7_BRqdyYG-3Yw1pmLNvm1Lcm2MSoACpkDap82XjkOvQCXOdPSAeI5CxnPEMKUfdHaiYvLWtullhwOzOtDobK9M-BIQ9OgtQqR7Yn-OVpeTtjkUJoC2ix2Yw.wH2IiXW0TL8d9-xPryjeA2FntZBxOrqxAtc8JX-HS6U&dib_tag=se&keywords=inner+alchemy+for+everyone&sr=8-3 My own opinion is the foundation for any practice is stillness and that building qi in your dantian too early can lead to big qi deviations and psychological issues due to traumas in your system (which nearly everyone has). So stillness and trauma-clearing before any qi building exercises. Lots of qi can also inflate your ego like air inflates a ballon. So another thing to look out for.
  18. Does Taoism use "direct pointing"

    I think the following quote from The Secret of the Golden Flower, Wilhelm translation is a direct pointing Good for contemplation.
  19. Can jing be replenished?

    Please provide an example of non attached romantic relationship. Real life, not in theory. Even Eckhart Tolle says it is not possible to have relationships without attachments. There is more to life than Buddhism. Do you get that humans evolve?
  20. Inner Journey with Greg Friedman & Mogen Roshi

    Where did Max get the Red Phoenix practice from?
  21. Can jing be replenished?

    I don't feel any effect of arousal that compares to the effect of ejaculation. Most likely it is hearsay rather than actual happening. The need to lessen your desire to reach enlightenment is not needed anymore in my humble opinion. I would say sex with love will actually open your heart more than someone who just meditates. It is real rather than fake and dry.
  22. Rudi Authentic Neigong

    Will Rudi do the diaphragmatic breathing workshop again?
  23. I am slowly resolving birth trauma using flying phoenix. Just by going into a meditation and having your intention of the issue will unravel it. Why do it? That particular issue has been causing me breathing issues, anxiety and energy imbalances for at least 10 years. I’ve tried many other healing methods but they never worked but this one does. Another experience since starting the level 17 meditations: I think I sensed GM Doo Wai the other night giving me a healing of a stomach issue. Interesting times 😊
  24. I think I bought them at a white tiger web site years ago but it is not avaliable anymore. Pic of DVD cover https://ibb.co/MD31KW8 Three standing, moving meditations and one sitting.
  25. What you say is true. I have the Golden Lotus Flying phoenix meditation DVDs (level 17 according to GM Doo Wai) and he seems to fall asleep due to the deep relaxation caused by the meditations. He also mentions this in the video. I prefer now to learn from GM Doo Wai because it is better to learn from the source. The deep relaxation the system offers is very helpful and is the only system I have encountered so far that can provide that.
