>What is this energy you speak of?
Qi, ki, aether, orgone, archeus, etheric energy, vital life-essence, prana, chi, mana, vital energy, Vril, life force, Nen (joke) and quintessence
(Or whatever you call it.)
Is the forgotten (not so forgotten) Energy which radiates within every life form. small or big, "weak and strong".
>Why cultivate it
Improved... Physical/joint Health, Mental health, Spiritual health/development, Mental clarity, perception, creativity, mood, companion, strength/mobility, etc
>Ok I'm sold, where do I start

A funny thought occurred to me. I was hiking and twisted my ankle. Now as a response I send a large amount of prana to my ankle and I realized it feels real good when you use prana to heal.Now this makes me feel like I understand the "masochistic knight" trope in fantasy. It can feel real good when you get hurt and then you heal from it. So why not throw yourself into the front lines and put yourself in a position where u can get hurt?Suffice to say, energy cultivation is fun and its awesome when u get to use it for cool stuff. The skys the limit.

Keeping your spine straight is extremely important, your whole spine not just segments of it.
My energy practices have skyrocketed once I began training my posture more, I would even spent whole 30 minute sits with just focusing on keeping my spine straight.Just wanted to share this,

i have an issue with embryonic breathing by dr. yang jwing ming and i could use some help.
im at page 68 in the section of breathing methods.
im practicing the second method where you do abdominal breathing at the part where you are supposed to contract the middle part where your anus and penis are (perineum) and i understand that i have to follow the instructions step by step.
so im supposed to follow with reverse abdominal breathing ok i get it....but then it jumps to embryonic breathing and in the same page talks about marrow breathing but it never dwells on any of the two because it says they will be talk about in more detail later in the book.., ok i get it.
BUT then on page74 it talks about five gates breathing and page 75, 76 and 77 it stars talking about exercise that you are supposed to do there's even some images of the author doing the exercises.
i have 2 questions:
1-im i supposed to change my daily day to day life way of breathing according to the hierarchy of the breathing methods in the book (normal breathing, abdominal breathing etc.) so that i do them only in my qigong practices while meditating or im supposed to do it all the time everywhere i go for the rest of my life.?
2-the exercises where the author of the book appears in pages 75 76 and 77 im i free to do them once i dominate reverse abdominal breathing or im supposed to do them at a later date when i already learn about embryonic breathing?...its a little confusing.
sorry if my question is stupid and i hope somebody could have the time to help me i would really appreciate it.
thanks in advance.

I’ve finally found my thread. I didn’t know it was called energy cultivation but I started being able to feel this energy after having acupuncture done for chronic pain. It felt like a buzzing feeling criss crossing throughout my body and I’ve since come to learn that the buzzing was the energy moving through the meridians. I’ve made a lot of progress since then like the microcosmic orbit to store energy every day in the lower energy centre and now am also learning the macrocosmic orbit too. It’s crazy how once you get the sensation of being able to physically feel the energy it makes following all these practices and exercises so much easier. When I go to sacred places or nice natural places like waterfalls it also activates the feeling and I reckon it’s as these places contain a high concentration of energy that can then be used too.

Other people are joyous,
As though they were at a spring festival.
I alone am unconcerned and expressionless,
Like an infant before it has learned to smile.
Other people have more than they need;
I alone seem to possess nothing.
I am lost and drift about with no place to go.
I am like a fool, my mind is in chaos.Ordinary people are bright;
I alone am dark.
Ordinary people are clever;
I alone am dull.
Ordinary people seem discriminating;
I alone am muddled and confused.
I drift on the waves on the ocean,
Blown at the mercy of the wind.
Other people have their goals,
I alone am dull and uncouth.I am different from ordinary people.
I nurse from the Great Mother's breasts.

Those who know others are intelligent;
Those who know themselves are truly wise.
Those who master others are strong;
Those who master themselves have true power.Those who know they have enough are truly wealthy.Those who persist will reach their goal.Those who keep their course have a strong will.
Those who embrace death will not perish,
But have life everlasting.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my doubt Sir.
OK ill stick with abdominal breathing method and make it mine as you instruct.
i have to ask and please forgive my retardation but... what do you mean by:
1-I always tell people the rote method is best to make these achievements (would you mind explaining what that is in detail)
2-it was joked here a while back that I brute force cracked samahdi (what is samahdi?)
sorry if this are basic things but honest to god im new here (both in this thread and also in energy cultivation practice)
Thanks in advance good Sir.

The Tao is nameless and unchanging.
Although it appears insignificant,
Nothing in the world can contain it.If a ruler abides by its principles,
Then his people will willingly follow.
Heaven would then reign on earth,
Like sweet rain falling on paradise.
People would have no need for laws,
Because the law would be written on their hearts.Naming is a necessity for order,
But naming can not order all things.
Naming often makes things impersonal,
So we should know when naming should end.
Knowing when to stop naming,
You can avoid the pitfall it brings.All things end in the Tao
Just as the small streams and the largest rivers
Flow through valleys to the sea.

>immortals/gods/devas help you move and purify your qi
>doing good deeds and being a skilled, honest, moral person is required to become an immortal and get help from higher beings
Is this true? Also heard immortals make the process painful and scary to wash the yin qi of the person and so those who are not worthy back off.

The Master has no mind of her own.
She understands the mind of the people.Those who are good she treats as good.
Those who aren't good she also treats as good.
This is how she attains true goodness.She trusts people who are trustworthy.
She also trusts people who aren't trustworthy.
This is how she gains true trust.The Master's mind is shut off from the world.
Only for the sake of the people does she muddle her mind.
They look to her in anticipation. Yet she treats them all as her children.

Any tips on kidney jing restoration maxing? I was on adderall for ten years, also took testosterone for a couple. Have been off all drugs (including lust and self abuse) for a longer time now than I see most people talking about, and feel fully recovered including from lingering attachment to that stuff. However, I still exhibit lingering signs of kidney deficiency. I will be continuing with my celibacy and develop more stillness, but I feel that my kidneys need extra help restoring the amount of jing I have squandered.Should I drop coffee too? Should I take weird herbs and find a sagely Chinese doctor to stick me with needles?

So it appears that catastrophic failure at the higher stages of this path is quite horrifying, and it is far preferable to instead have been delusional. The latter is merely humbling.If I understood only one thing,
I would want to use it to follow the Tao.
My only fear would be one of pride.
The Tao goes in the level places,
But people prefer to take the short cuts.If too much time is spent cleaning the house
The land will become neglected and full of weeds,
And the granaries will soon become empty
Because there is no one out working the fields.
To wear fancy clothes and ornaments,
To have your fill of food and drink
And to waste all your money buying possessions
Is called the crime of excess.
Oh, how these things go against the ways of the Tao!
