I did a very small amount of shaolin kung fu as part of my training (only one form and I can't remember it all- lots of horse stance and long armwork). I'm going to the chinese state circus tommorow to see a kung fu display. |

i was in tae kwon do for about 8-9 years. i wish kung fu was taught in my town. i usually just rent jeet kune do books written by bruce lee from the library. |

lucky bastard. were you any good at shaolin kungfu? i enjoy standing in the horse-riding stance meditating upon a square for hours at a time - i find it lifts my spirit higher than the 10,000,000th decimal place of pi |

wow... that's pretty high! |

do you practice it? |

I've thought of getting into some form of Martial Arts but I don't know which one. What would be a good form if I was looking for the spirtual and meditative side of it? Also I am old and brittle so my body can't take much of a beating. |

thankyou trevor - i once reached the seventh silver gate of Nyarlethotep, and ate from the CozmiQ Orrange seated on the Yogic Platter of Baphomet. but i was so much older then |

Yep I do a lot of horse stance mainly for the "Iron Shirt" form. |

what about the philosophical aspect? do you adhere to that at all? have you given up all material things 'cepting a gown and a bowl of rice? |

ohmmmmm - just listening to a nice bit of buddhist flute drum bell playing. most conducive to interstellar travel |

i have some tibetan chant with some great throat singing that you might like, can't think of it right now but if you want ill find out the title. its available on audiogalaxy and is incredible. i am going to start learning tai chi. this is something that is more aimed at physical health and spiritual balance through balance of the body. the self defense is only an aplication of it, which works well with me since i dont plan on getting in any fights. as for meditation, i dont adhere to any religoius or dogmatic practice, but just learn from all the sources and let my heart tell me what needs be done. |
||||||||
|

|
|
yeah if you find the title i'd be very appreciative. i too, don't adhere to any one belief system/dogma - that would just be a trap |

The Gyuto Monks - Tibetan Tantric Choir there's two tracks, one straight vocals and one with some traditional instumental too. i've not been able to obtain a complete copy of the second track. i think i'll buy it actually. i think the album Freedom Chants from the Roof of the World is by the same people, but the Gyuto Tantric order is 500 years old accoarding to amazon so there are recordings from different gyuto folks other than these. |

and fuck the traps! we've been setting those for ourselves since the beggining. |

Marlowe, did you see this yet? Just thought I'd bring it to the top while you're here. Very good stuff! |

i'd love to get a balance of physique and psyche myself |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's attainable. just realize that they are one. the entire system is integrated into one single body, every part dependent on every other. not that i myself have attained balance and kept it, but all in good time. |

i hope it's not the "wheel of life" demo... it bites!!!! only the kids are good, and mostly in the aspect that they have that ability at such an early age. |
