Book Super Neigong of Ancient Monks

Download or read book Super Neigong of Ancient Monks written by David Teng and published by David Teng. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drastically Upgrade Your Internal Body... More Effective Than Yoga, Exercise, QiGong, Taichi, Weights, Meditation, Hypnosis... A Monk's Quest for Enlightenment There was a Monk hoping to reach enlightenment (he was already close) who also heard about the Walking Meditation and is ready to start. He set up a pole that span across a temple and hooked his hair onto the pole. He would then walk back and forth within the temple and would not be able to lie down or sit down. When he got sleepy, he would nap only a little by resting against the walls of the temple. A Devotion Beyond Measure He did this for 30 continuous days. During the process, his legs and feet swelled beyond imagination. Puss and blood started to come out from lumps on the swollen feet and legs. No doubt it was painful. But people from the ancient times had a simple mind and their drive to achieve enlightenment was none like others. So it is really us that have deteriorated in the modern times. He didn’t really think much about the pain and just pushed on. If it were someone in modern times, a little pus would send him/her into a frenzy of fear and into the hospital to ask for treatment. The Ancient Wisdom Unveiled Eventually, the puss and blood stopped, and the swelling went away. The legs and feet returned to normal. But the legs are now like never before. The skins are like those of new-born babies. And not just the feet. The rest of the body too. His hair and face have also rejuvenated. It turns out the body was just casting out the toxins long stored within his body – even the toxins he was born with. The Moment of Enlightenment After a month of walk, he thought to himself, “I think I’ve done enough, and I really do need a good sleep”. So he untied his hair and start to lay down on a pillow. Just as he head touched the pillow, he did it. He attained enlightenment. So he attained enlightenment and got a much better-looking physical body. Pretty good deal, right? The Core Inner Energy Method When you practice the core inner energy method of Neigong, the inner energy generated is hard and hammer-like. It breaks down the major energy/physical blockages in your body. This is because Neigong is at the center of Qi cultivation. The Order of Qi Cultivation The important order of your Qi cultivation. The order is Wu-Gong (武功) Qi-Gong (氣功) Nei-Gong (內功) Tao-Gong (道功) Zen-Gong (禪功) The latter two, Tao- and Zen-Gong, are more geared toward spiritual enlightenment, which comes naturally after Neigong… Everyone is trying to do "Zen-Gong" (禪功) before all of those previous 4 steps. The reversal of this order dramatically slows their cultivation development. Nei-Gong: The Gateway to True Health Once the Neigong step is complete, one will progress into the four Levels of Zen meditative states easily. The hammer-like practices (no, it's not intense exercise) are the basis of "Nei-Gong" or "Internal Kung Fu". This will give back a truly healthy body. This cannot be done with Wu-Gong (sports, exercises, or muscle workouts) that strengthens your physique and Qi, but not focused on clearing the internal blockages. Only after all the blockages in your body are cleared can you be called a truly healthy person.

Book Nei Gong  the Authentic Classic

Download or read book Nei Gong the Authentic Classic written by Tom Bisio and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic, (Nei Gong Zhen Chuan) is an obscure text of unknown origin, yet it stands alone as the definitive text on internal energy and the generation of internal power. Hand copied, and passed from teacher to student, it is one of the "secret transmissions" of Chinese martial arts. Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic, is a practical manual on internal energy development and its fundamental importance in the martial arts and fa jin (emitting force). It draws heavily on Daoist meditation and alchemical practices which are said to promote health and longevity. The text is divided into four sections: 1. Nei Gong Jing (Internal Energy Classic); 2. Na Gua Jing (Received Trigram Classic); 3. Shen Yun Jing (Transported Spirit Classic); 4. Di Long Jing (Earth Dragon Classic), which are meant to be read in order. In this way the reader is guided step by step through the details of Nei Gong practice, and in the Di Long Jing, its application to self-defense. Translated by a team of experts, the text is accompanied by extensive footnotes and diagrams that clarify the more obscure passages which otherwise pre-suppose a knowledge of Daoist texts and imagery from the I-Ching (Book of Changes). The appendices further explicate the relationship of Nei Gong: The Authentic Classic to the internal martial art Xing Yi Quan.

  • Author : Kosta Danaos
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2002-02-01
  • ISBN : 1594776091
  • Pages : 248 pages

Download or read book Nei Kung written by Kosta Danaos and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explains the science behind the practice of nei kung, the elemental nature of yin and yang energy--the two components of ch'i, and how learning to control the yang energy in our ch'i can result in the release of dynamic energy. • Establishes the existence and understanding of nei kung in the practices of many of the world's ancient cultures. • Includes a step-by-step guide to the meditation that forms the basis of the practice of nei kung. • By Kosta Danaos, author of The Magus of Java and apprentice to an immortal of the Mo-Pai tradition. In 1994 Kosta Danaos was accepted as a student by John Chang, a Chinese-Javanese Taoist in the Mo-Pai tradition and a master of nei kung, the practice of harnessing and controlling our body's bioenergy, or ch'i. Nei Kung: The Secret Teachings of the Warrior Sages describes the practice of nei kung and how learning to control our ch'i can result in the release of dynamic energy that can be used for healing, pyrogenesis, telekinesis, levitation, telepathy, and more. Danaos suggests that both components of ch'i--yin and yang energy--are fundamental to the earth and to life and were recognized and used in many of the world's ancient cultures. Though we have forgotten how to access them, these components are in fact elemental parts of us. The author explains that we first must open our minds to the fact that the power of ch'i is real. Next, in learning to control our ch'i as a whole, we must learn to channel our yang energy in productive ways--a potential we all possess. To help readers understand their capacity to connect with this inner elemental power, the author offers a fascinating blend of teachings that include sound scientific theories explaining much of the "magic" of nei kung. He also offers historical, linguistic, artistic, and literary proof of the presence and understanding of nei kung throughout the ages and a step-by-step introduction to several types of simple meditation--fundamental to directing one's ch'i. With his engaging storytelling and disarming humor, his physics-based explanations for seemingly mystical phenomena, and his reassurances that he's really no different from the rest of us, Kosta Danaos shows us that once we remember our capacity to harness our yang energy, we can change ourselves and our world.

  • Author : Phillip Starr
  • Publisher : Blue Snake Books
  • Release : 2010-11-23
  • ISBN : 1583942432
  • Pages : 250 pages

Download or read book Hidden Hands written by Phillip Starr and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solo forms or sets of a martial art may appear to be merely flashy performances or rote exercises for conditioning, and because of this many students disregard this aspect of their training. True martial arts masters, however, know that the forms of a system actually contain all of the techniques and secrets of that system—if one knows how to look for them. Often called the “great books” of martial arts, forms are crucial for a deeper understanding of the art one practices. In Hidden Hands, Phillip Starr provides detailed instruction in the art of reading martial arts forms: by first mastering rudimentary “words” (individual techniques) and then moving on to simple “sentences” (combinations of techniques), the student will come to understand forms as ancient documents that contain the true essence of their art. Starr discusses different aspects of forms practice such as rhythm, timing, spirit, and performance, and presents specific guidelines for interpreting the movements of various forms. The book ends with the dissection and interpretation of a complete form. Containing examples from Chinese, Japanese, Okinawan, and Korean martial arts, Hidden Hands shows serious practitioners how to improve in any art and style.

Book Internal Martial Arts Nei gong

Download or read book Internal Martial Arts Nei gong written by Bill Bodri and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many old martial arts films you often see a master capable of extraordinary supernormal feats such as being able to move with the speed of wind, throw incredibly heavy objects, destroy them with a strike, stride over water, or even fly through the air. Are such things possible? The Chinese Taoists say "yes" if the master practiced special exercises to cultivate their inner energy, or yang chi (qi). These practices to cultivate inner power are called nei-gong, or the internal martial arts, and are related to the mastery of the kundalini energies cited in Indian yogic and Buddhist literature, which also explains the various superpowers that become possible with its cultivation. Many people today want to be able to attain such supernormal skills, or they simply want to understand why and how these skills were cultivated so they might be duplicated as best possible. Some practitioners of Tai Chi Chuan, Hsing-Yi, Ba Gua Zhang, Five Animals, Aikido, Karate, Judo, Northern Shaolin, and other Kung Fu Wushu traditions have alternatively damaged their bodies from their practice, or have reached a training plateau, and want some sure methods to break their current limits and bring their martial arts skills to the next level. This book explains the major practices on how to properly cultivate nei-gong safely to achieve all these objectives. The information provided, because of its advance nature, was usually considered the high "secrets" of martial arts lineages made available only to the top students who also practiced breathing methods and meditation. It explains how to cultivate the mythical martial arts through the initial practice of qi-gong, and then inner nei-gong exercises involving anapana, pranayama, one-pointed visualization, kasina meditations, and sexual cultivation. It provides training information applicable to Iron Palm, Iron Shirt or Dim Mak techniques, which though incredible in themselves still fall far short of the special supernormal achievements possible after a martial arts student successfully opens up their chakras and chi channels, in particular their sushumna central channel and the macrocosmic chi circulation within the body. This is the only book in English offering detailed instructions on how to cultivate the Taoist concept of shen, which is the stage of awareness attained after cultivating your chi to a high level. For purposes of attaining inner gong-fu (kung fu), it also teaches how to cultivate the Six Yogas of Naropa and the Tibetan tantric mantras for opening up the body's central chi channel. In terms of specific long term nei-gong methods, it stresses visualization and anapana practices which are explained in conjunction with more advanced techniques for dissolving inner energy blockages. Rather than just focusing on internal martial arts kung fu, the authors go even a step further also bring forth many rarely discussed modern training principles for peak athletic performance that can be applied to martial arts, and provide practical information on various vitamin-mineral supplements, detoxification routines, and bodywork therapies that can help heal martial arts injuries and lead to improved skills even if the nei-gong route of internal martial arts energies and gong-fu is not mastered. This is a truly unique book, quite different than what's normally available for the martial arts tradition, because it provides full materials on topics raely covered elsewehre, and reveals not one, two or three but a plethora of inner training practices, even for qi-gong, along with what are normally considered their secret training details.
