Just Another Person

Recommended Posts

I'm here to discuss and learn more about Eastern practices which typically consist of cultivation practices and daoist wizardry, but not limited to these. I am a practicing magician, greeting to all fellows and ladies who practice too - a nod towards you all.

 

I am learning Chinese and can follow basic conversations, and with enough time and a dictionary, I can understand passages, though it's better if I have a native speaker sit next to me and point out my glaring mistakes. I will probably ask many questions so that I can delve closer to the source Chinese texts than just being satisfied with translations in which some meaning is lost.

 

Currently, I'm reading Taoist Master Chuang, and finding myself liking it. There is some pieces missing, but that is intentional - the key must either be transmitted or created. I find myself interested in the Chou I and the Ling Chi Ching too.

Hello Radiant, and welcome.

 

Your membership is approved and we're happy you found your way to us. We look forward to accompanying you on some of the way that you still have to go.

 

Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started.

 

For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day.

 

Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you,

Hi Radiant,

 

Sounds like you have some serious learning going on.  I'm sure you will find many to speak with.

 

You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started.

 

May you enjoy your time here.

Glad to have you on board.  I admire that you're not just discussing what you want, but the work, such as learning Chinese that goes along with it.
