Maybe it's too late in the TDB day for quality control. It was being controlled for something else for too long, through no fault of the current mod team I should add, not their fault at all. I think people who know serious things, if I can put it that way, are nervous about posting their ideas and being greeted with ridicule or low IQ takes. It’s a frustrating and depressing experience. As is immediate derailment into the world of slop. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knowing nothing about how a discussion forum is managed i have a real question, is there a member in charge of justice in the administration team? If the set of rules applied to the subsection can insure the peaceful atmosphere of the environnement, shy people may be more incline to say something, and stubbornly overreacting people like me would have a chance to strenghten their self-control abilities.

A few masters of Daoist lineages escaped to Taiwan and elsewhere before being "re-educated" by the cultural revolution. Of course, this does not mean that "pure original Neidan" exists, whatever that may be or however that may be assessed. But a few Daoist lineages and their practices have survived the cultural revolution without being "re-constructed" by the CPC, mostly in Taiwan. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a frustrating and depressing experience. As is immediate derailment into the world of slop. Another factor is that those "serious things" are often quite secretive, sometimes for good reason, perhaps sometimes not. I know that I feel uncomfortable sharing things my teacher asked us to keep to ourselves, be that personal experiences and insights from practice, specific information, or practical instruction. In part this is because certain information can be useless, misinterpreted, or even harmful when pursued before the student is prepared. Not saying a focused and well--moderated neidan forum would necessarily be a bad idea but I do think there will be challenges. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DynamicEquilibrium Posted 17 hours ago (edited) 32 minutes ago, Apech said: Have you tried a martial art? Yes, i've practiced quite a lot, too much even, i've tried Taoist meditation, Qigong, psychological counselling...Neidan too even, and some others therapies, but still i was always doing something that ruined a lot of things in my life, so i felt terrible, with a lot of bitterness and regrets in my heart. Fortunately ten years ago i've found something that slowly begun to effect from the core and it is still a real struggle to strenghten it. So far i can say that i have a much better sustainable development in my life with a lot of meaningful things coming back in the whole picture. Before i was really toooo serious, always calculating and if i didn't smile i looked like a silent killer. But fortunately i've found my Master on my internal internet amazon and he gave me a medecine to release the pressure and heal my psychic digestive system. Let me introduce him in this discussion : Spoiler https://share.google/4mxdYf9hIf35bAz6i Sorry couldn't resist, very poor self-control abilities at this stage 😁 Edited 17 hours ago by DynamicEquilibrium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Before going into spirituality which i love, i need to practice some more of our Taoist medecine joint cultivation of Xing and Ming 道醫性命雙修 to heal and maintain a healthy ordinary life. Can't say i do Neidan at the moment because it won't be true. You got me loud and clear in the poor joke message, but i feel responsability to make my position clearer and clearer little by little anyways.

Yes, 道醫 is therapeutic. Only those who knows the concept of 性命雙修. Then it would be therapeutic. Edited 13 hours ago by ChiDragon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
