The Symbolic Meaning behind the 108 moves in Taoist Tai Chi:
Taoist Tai Chi is built on a rich heritage of Taoist beliefs which
traces its source
back to Chang San Feng, the 11th Century Taoist monk who systematized Tai Chi
Chuan. The Taoist Tai Chi set has 108 moves because the number 108 represents
the 36 Celestial Deities and 72…[Read more]

The Tao Te Ching is an amazing book. It was written by Lao Tsu about 600 years before birth of Jesus and is next most translated book in the world next to the Bible. It has given rise to a religion, Taoism, and is a book rich in wisdom, insight and clarity. Why then, is restatement needed?

It never occurs to most people that might be able to “read” tracks like words on page. Yet tracks are just as telling as words and sentences. Each one contains the story of it’s creation, and each one is a window into the actions and thoughts of it’s creator. That is the true spirit of tracking, and nothing embodies that spirit more completely…[Read more]

Many of the scientists of the nineteenth century believed that what is now considered to be empty space was actually occupied by a “substance” called ether, which was the medium through which light waves traveled. The famous chemist Lord Kelvin (William Thomson, 1824-1907)…[Read more]

“This guy at Pelican Bay told me that he and his cellmate would exercise up to four or five hours a day,” says Jessner. “It stayed with me sort of as a vision of Hell: They are in these tiny little concrete cells; one of them is running vigorously in place while the other one’s doing ‘burpees’-sort of like jumping jacks mixed with push-ups -for…[Read more]

They do not functionin the event of natural death. When you finish your earthly career, your body remains on this planet. Your Thought Adjuster proceeds to the bosom of Father,…[Read more]

In my opinion maybe one of the best objects of study taken with Daoist practices is Carlos Castaneda. I just have recently read several times ‘The Fire From Within.’ It’s so strange because I have impression that I start to understand most of the ideas like what is meant with Assenblage Point, Rolling Force, Tumbler and so on. Maybe I have started…[Read more]
