    I did this form today for the first time at qigong center 1 on 1 with an instructor, first time doing this type of qigong i thought it was silly at first and wierd that I was the only one who showed up but i kept an open mind and by the end of it I was in deep stillness and balanced and clean energy. I have anxiety/depression on a regular basis and this allieviated it almost completely and i felt some deep peace and happiness, affects still going hours afterwords, I really enjoyed it. The guy I learned it from has been doing Tai chi and qi gong for 36 years and studied directly a few times with Wu. I will be doing it every saturday morning and am definitely looking forward to it, I have the book as well I downloaded it from theoccult.bz, this is a really old post but thought I would throw this out there. Wu seems to be endorsed by a lot of the big name tai chi and qi gong people.

    Adyashanti: Emptiness Dancing

    Amazon.com

     

    I have to tell you, this is one of the most surprising books I've ever read on the topic of spirituality. It clearly outlines problems that spiritual seekers face but no one really talks about. It asks and answers important questions, it helps to deal with things that are unsure or uncertain in many of us.

    Adyashanti is not from the far-east, he was born and grown up in the western culture, so he has a unique perspective, and a much greater understanding of the problems of western seekers.

     

    A part of the description:

     

    "From the first stages of realization to its evolutionary implications, Adyashanti shares a treasure trove of insights into the challenges of the inner life, offering lucid, down-to-earth advice on topics ranging from the ego, illusion, and "spiritual addiction" to compassion, letting go, the eternal now, and more."

     

    I recommend this book for everyone who is seeking something in the realm of spirituality, and for those who aren't :)

     

    Very good book, its an ego detanator he is a very clear teacher that cuts right to the truth without any extra fluff, his insight and teachings are great.

    I just wanted to check in and say hello, this forum seems to be a very interesting place... very glad I have found it. I am very interested in Qi gong, and Taoist practices but as of right now I am pretty unfamiliar with it all. I have practiced some standing meditation Zhaung Zang I believe it is called after reading Lam Kam Chuen's book the way of power, I have tried doing inner smile practices and semen retention but so far havent had much success at either. I frequented bluelight.ru for the past few years and have been looking for something more on the spiritual and less on the drug side and have found it. Currently I practice Hatha yoga, and attend a Tibetan Buddhist temple started by Garchen Rinpoche I am a psychology student at WSU.

     

    I tried to access the personal cultivation board and it gives me this error:
