I apologize, I’m afraid I didn’t understand much about that post.
> a cupla years ago i had the same problem and standing practice did wonders.
I take it cupla = couple? What’s the standing practice? (I’m still trying to go through the excersizes to get to the microcosmic orbit, if that’s what you’re talking about. I’ve got a problem with being a perfectionist… I can’t stand moving ahead if I think I have one of the preperation exercises wrong.)
> 30 minutes a day. followed it with 8 extra vessels qigong to circulate qi and ensure it didnt stagnate.
What’s the 8 extra vessels qigong? I had a teacher that said something about qigong (boy, I wish I’d paid attention now =) but he moving on to bagua… Of course, that was for martial arts and I’m not sure if it’s the same thing as what’s taught here.
> the other thing to bear in mind is that qigong can often release deep seated, hidden fatigue. you just have to work thru it.
I guess my only problem is ignorance in relation to qigong. I’m not sure what you’re referring to…
Thank you for the reply! I appreciate the advise eminsley (oh, and I hope I didn’t offend with the mistype… as you can see I can’t spell =).
Sincerely,

Thank you for that post. About the whether it’s merit with self-interest or not. I never thought about it that way.
I personally have caught myself doing good for someone else just to see a smile of appretiation… that in and of itself could be considered self-interest.
When you think about it that way, it’s kind of hard to find a time in which doing something good for someone (merit) could ever be for anything other than self-interest.
Thanks again for the observation!

Why would you want immortality? I know high goals help everyone, but just leading a happy and meaningfull life is a big goal for anyone, whether it be 100 or 30 years.
Maybe I’m missing the context, as I don’t even really consider myself adequate in any form of meditation. However, saying you want immortality of body is the same to me as saying you are afraid of death.
Don’t get me wrong, I have no claim to Mr. Winn or anything about the community other than I’m interested in schooling my mind to a calm. I have kept an open mind and approached many religions, philosophies, and medical sources with equal fairness. It would be my opinion that your point could have been made with far more elegance than it actually held.
I apologize if this reply is out of context or insulting. Neither was my goal. I am interested in your side of the story, however, I would find it easier to understand and accept if it wasn’t decorated with mud.
Sincerely,
Jason
P.S.
There is always more than one way to accomplish something on a computer. Whether your hacking at something you don’t know or going through the motions of a pro in his own system.
