Hi Fajin:

Can you explain what you mean by consciousness, both in a macro way and for humanity.

thanks,

Hi faj:

The fundametal difference is, I believe humanity/creation and the creator are one, and each person has the capicity to experience their inseparable relationship to the whole; we can directly experience both the collective and individual Qi fields.

The methods of dealing with conditioning, habits and patterns vary, whether Taoist or…[Read more]

Hi SO:

You are really singing tonight.

I will not allow you all to slip and slide.

Please confirm if this is an accurate understanding of MW post.

1. Heaven and Eath have never been in harmony or integrated?
If yes this is in contradiction to every taoist teaching.

2. Where in the classics does it say Heaven and Earth are…[Read more]

Hi Fajin:

Of course I missed you.

Live your life and if a woman (assuming thats your choice) enters your life you want to spend time, friendship and fun, go for it, otherwise enjoy your life dont think about it. If you meet someone special, OH you will know it, its transcendental and unlike anything else.

Please review MW theory on how…[Read more]

Hi Alexander:

Please read michale’s post and his explanation for the ‘Cause of the Human conditon”, my questions related only to that.

Hi Brian:

No need to edit them, and please continue particpating.

I think this forum offers something quite unique, a deep dialogue of people with all kinds of experience, practice and theory with taoism. We are trying to get to some of the crtical issues in the cosmology and alchemy, which I have spent a few decades playing with, as have…[Read more]

Hi SO:

I will try to be clearer.

According to MW:

Wu Ji created heaven and earth and gave them free will, they did not harmonize themselves and created “extreme polarity”, they then created humanity to find harmony and soul completion? Is this correct, I will assume yes.

Why would all the classics advise us to follow the way of “heaven…[Read more]

Hello Michael:

Thanks for the profundly insighful post.

There are many things you mentioned, I just picked one to focus on.

“The cause of suffering then is in the agency that creates the binary soul, i.e. heaven and earth, formless and form. It does NOT originate in any flaw or sin of humans, although we may aggravate it out of fear…[Read more]

Can you post the corect link?

Hi:

It was others that set the discussion: Taoism vs Buddhism. This is something I do not support, I promote the integration of the two, where they are the same. I would like more who share this view to speak up and share their exeperiences and views.

It is not my interpretation, it is the author’s.

Following the taoist way of life decreases much of human made suffering.

“Secret of Everlasting Life/Zhou Yi Can Tong Qi and the author is Richard Bertschinger, published by Element Book of England. An extract here might interest you…

“The idea of everlasting life has nothing to do with hankering after life. The truth is that actually there is no death.

How can there be no death? Because actually there is…[Read more]

Not only are there mutliple shen, I thing there are mutliple writers on this list, possibly fragmented aspects of their shen. So there may be one person writing under numerous names, its hard to disguise the writing style too much. That is why I asked the question.

Maybe you should add this service to your vast product store!!!!

Hi SO:

Well I agree.

can you tell me why you ignore referencing Mantak Chia, you say White Cloud/M. Winn’s alchemy? Chia braught them here, why eliminate his name, he is the one to bring them here?

thanks,

Hi Max:

There are so many variations of Marrow Washing. I do not think the method Chia and Dr. Yang, Ming-Jing taught were the original methods, the are modifications of centuries. I think the original ones were very gentle postures and movements, if its true Da Mo creted them, it is most likely his Yoga background that guided its…[Read more]

Now ya talking!!!!!

i know what you mean about saying that the Hun and Po are total and not partial. About what Michael says in regards to Novak, I agree with him that the split occurs at death, and we need to do something in this lifetime. Daoists attempt to achieve immortality, Buddhists attempt to achieve enlightnment. They both try to do…[Read more]

Hi Fajin:

Faj
Let me ask you, why should we practice the microcosmic orbit, are we trying to adjust this cycle? The same goes for birth and death with Hun and Po. If you also practice the microcosmic orbit, then why not work on another cycle like birth-death?
******************************
orbit is sea of yin and sea of yang, this is…[Read more]

Hi dog:

Well said.

If one can see what you say in the Tao Cosmology, then its all worthwhile.
