it was correct; i.e. did it reach you? S -

Steven replied to the topic Bill Moyers on Faith and Reason with Pema Chodron in the forum Philosophy 15 years, 5 months ago
He certainly had some reckless extravagant excesses in his life,
that’s to be sure . . . and it IS an interesting question as to
why a good number of “spiritually advanced” people go off kilter,
BUTPema Chodron has not been a student of his in 23+ years due to his death,
and she is a spiritual teacher in her own right, so any judgments…[Read more] -

Hi Wendy,
Have you formulated any ideas for what you will do
in the October day-long class? Mainly just curious here.Or maybe it is still too early, and you’ll play it by ear?
At the very least, let us know how it goes after the fact 🙂

Steven replied to the topic how do i get it to work in daily life? in the forum General 15 years, 6 months ago
Personally, I find it too artificial and forced to
coordinate the orbit with my breathing; in particular,
there are usually some parts of the orbit where the
energy seems to be more stuck & slower moving and
other parts where it is flowing faster. So I tend
to coordinate the speed of the orbit flow with the
natural flow speed of the…[Read more] -

To this, I would ask, “what do you mean by effort?”
If you have your hands out from your body, ala Iron Shirt,
and keeping them in one position for a good length of time
creates physical discomfort, then there is nothing wrong
with altering hand positions. In fact, a sequence of
differing positions is typically how one does an I-Chuan…[Read more] -

Suppose you set aside 30 minutes, but in that time you
zip through 2 forms and 4-5 meditations. What are you
really accomplishing? Are you really going to an “altered
place” to help change your…[Read more] -

I would recommend you focus on the process, not so much
on “how much you can accomplish” in a short time. In other
words, I suggest slowing your practice down considerably and
devoting more time to it.Part of the problem of everyday life is the “running around
like a chicken with its head cut off”, fast frenetic pace

Steven replied to the topic sorgenfri – free of sorrow in the forum General 15 years, 6 months ago
I hope the epidemic has passed.
Going to a place called “Free of Sorrows” is
quite appropriate given a disease that affects the
skin, and skin being ruled by the Lung Spirit.
Even more appropriate that it is the start of fall 😉S
