Nei Gong systems

[TomBrad]

I'm curious - can different Nei Gong systems be trained in concurrently?  e.g. can Damo Mitchell's system be studied at the same time as Wang Liping's?

It depends on the systems. Some can be practiced with others, some can’t.

I'm curious, who has the time to delve deeply into two systems?

And that's another thing I'm also curious about.  I'm additionally curious about why you're so curious?

Check out this video he does three systems! I haven’t watched yet but I do one of the same neigong systems that he does.

Thank you, I'll have a look at it.

I practice one system, and I d not have time to practice that to perfection. Doing two or three, I would either have to skip actually absorbing into the methods I know quite well, or skip work.

I'm also curious, do you practice a neigong system currently or in the past?

What system do you practice?

 

I do Authentic Neigong by Rudi, and also do Flying Phoenix Qigong by Sifu Terry Dunn and some Tan Tao Pai qigong. Outside of this I don’t really have any time for more neigong practices.

 

Soon I will be starting wing chun and the instructor also teaches some of Damo Mitchell’s neigong. I’m gonna try them out of curiosity to see how it compares with what I’m already doing, but probably won’t make it a part of regular practice outside these classes.

I would do only one of these systems, Wang Liping system contains the Three Spaces practice which would dissolve boundaries of body into space. 

 

See Nathan Brine book vol 3. 

 

I doubt Damo Mitchell has reached that stage.

If I had to guess, if you asked either Damo or Nathan Brine about it, they would advise choosing one or the other. But the actual answer would be to ask the teacher IMO. 

[Master Logray]

This question is quite unanswerable.   Whether 2 systems are compatible can only be answered by the teachers of the 2 systems.  But seldom does a teacher happen to know another system in depth.   In the old days when the very original system has been taught, undiluted and unadulterated for centuries.   Then another teacher may have sufficient knowledge on that system.  But these days many system are recent inventions, or significantly altered, then outsiders would have no idea on what is going on.

In the past and present, normally, the teacher or master does not want their students to learn other systems. Period.

 

PS If you want to learn more than one system at one time, then, you are not serious about learning any system at all.

Sure, like this guy:

Definitely not serious!

Haha, scholars are exceptional.
Nan_Huai-Chin I have one of his books on Yijing(易經). I had gotten some misguided information from him.
