Mehmet Posted Wednesday at 09:17 AM Hello! My name is Mehmet. I’m from Sweden and have been exploring Taoist practices for many years, including qigong, meditation, and internal energy work. I’m here to learn more and deepen my understanding of Taoism through shared experiences. Looking forward to being part of the community. – Mehmet 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommy Posted Wednesday at 01:20 PM Welcome to the forum, Nice to meet new members. I have not developed an interest in Taoism. Please, may I ask how you became interested in Taoism? I like Zen and Zen Buddhism. Also, auto mechanics. Have owned several cars over the years. All used and all with issues. So got an interest in auto mechanics. Found Zen Buddhism to be interesting as it seemed like a handbook of the human soul. Of course, opinions change over time. Would be interested to know what you like about Taoism??

Along the way, I came in contact with Taoism and qigong, and noticed that qigong helped me regulate and understand those energies. Taoism felt like one of the natural paths for me.

Welcome Mehmet i think you are exactly in the right place with your experiences. i can relate to your experience in childhood. i am glad that you found qigong and because of this, now all your childhood experiences make sense. at least i hope this is or will be the case for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
