The universal concept of 性命雙修 is cultivation of the mind and body. The esoteric term to a Taoist for the mind is 性 as 性格 and 品牲. And for the for body is 命。These terms are universal to a Taoist. Even a native person cannot be understood as such without guidance or proper explanation. 

100% wrong.

Yes, psychosomatic.  

You are right about 性, 性格, 品性, same goes for 人性, 人格, 人品.

 

At this point i may disapear, i feel the FaceBookImmortals agents are on their way and as a 芻狗 i can only surrender to the Nature's authority. :ph34r:

It is a reminder to myself to strive to live by this way. 

 

So far it eased my heart from a lot of burden, improved my health, clarified my mind, pacified internal conflicts, harmonized my human relationships...all this is very real, so i can say that the principles of dynamic equilibrium applied to individual psychosomatic system and very ordinary daily life activities and interactions have great meaning and value.

Yes, I figured that there was something hidden in the username.  Without any explanation, I see 性命雙修 is taken place in your daily life. What a coincidence, Wu Wei helps me to do the same. 


So far it eased my heart from a lot of burden, improved my health, clarified my mind, pacified internal conflicts, harmonized my human relationships...all this is very real for sure.  You've said it all. The mutual resonance on our part 可算得是知己知彼. No wonder the friendly gesture is unavoidable.

I think the  qi  CD experiences is part of the  “visible Tao” (as in CD’s DDJ ch. 1), while 

the  qi  Pak Satrio experiences is part of the  “invisible Tao”.

Because I think the visible Tao is the external world; and the invisible Tao is the internal world.

I think what Pak Satrio talks about is also called 靈氣 (ling2 qi4)

Tao is either visible or invisible for us to grok in our world. One world.

I think all “grokking” is done internally, that’s what I call the internal world; it’s not a separate physical world.

Practicing nei dan from whatever you read on tdb will lead you to hell, a quite personal hell, because you are practicing wrong.

 

Find a realized teacher.
