  11. Carlos Castaneda and Don Juan

    mm Tantra, how much i would like to see one of these very old Classics in English. And better in Spanish if possible Well Castaneda reminds me about Master Kwan Saihung book Chronicles of Tao: The Secret Life of a Taoist Master, there the pics had been taken from other books and the history it looks like own summary of books like Water Margin and the Book of Five Rings. ( or maybe have some true pieces of histories told to him, when he went to these Mountains, but made after by Kwan Saihung, in his own way.)

    Good Day o dear friends, is so good to always see the goodness and not the negative that first came in mind, but of course to protect your body is a must, life is all. Yes i train only 2 exercises: Carrying the Moon Lifting the Sky I had been directly learn and get "hearth to heart trasmition" of these 2 exercises from my ex Sifu (teacher), Grand Master Wong Kiew Kit. These are parts of the Lohan Hands, i belive Carry the moon have Taoist roots. These are just beginning exercises to get the energy flow so, you can then go on advanced levels like abdominal breathing, small universe and big universe to get enlightenment. That is what i mean with high Qi Gong (though I don't know exactly how Master Wong Kiew Kit learned all these Qi Gong exercises, but some were from books other from his Shaolin Sifu's, Great Grand Masters. Regards PS. Any questions about these 2 exercises are welcome if you want! Bye, bye.
  15. Xing Shen Zhuang Levels 1-3

    PS. I have not train Xing Shen Zhuang and sure never do ( i ready train genuine Qi Gong, there i feel the energi in my body) so it may be that Xing Shen Zhuang is genuine, but like i said Qi Gong with very high aim there meditation etc is include, i don't think Xing Shen Zhuang is! Regards
  16. Xing Shen Zhuang Levels 1-3

    What i mean with high Qi Gong is Qi Gong there the programme and exercises have one aim only Taoist:TAO, Zen Buddhism: Enlightened differents path but the same final goal.

  19. Biographies of Immortals

    From Wuzhen pian (Awakening to Reality)by Fabrizio Pregadio: "There are five degrees of Immortals, namely, the demon immortals (guixian), the human immortals (renxian), the earthly immortals (dixian), the spirit immortals (shenxian), and the celestial immortals (tianxian)." I understand, thanks for the good info Taijiphoenix
