Hi Why did you delete my message which I wrote to katsujinkin60 here? I gave him my email so we can come into contact. Can you leave my message please? I enjoy your content, though
When my wife was one month pregnant with my son, we went to the doctors office and got a scan of him. I could not believe what I saw! He looked like a tiny peanut with a pulse! You could actually see his pulse on the scan! It was the most exciting and awe inspiring moment of my life. When you said a new life begins with the heart, I literally witnessed this with my son. I have a very strange feeling that I have been looking for your academy for most of my life and just did not know it. Thank you very much Master Gu!
Realy awesome I study Qu Gong and chinese Medicin in Switzerland and we see this picture lots of times. Full of meaning and yet so abstract. Love your chanel master gu, and yours also Mr. Tompson
@@kesivan Oh i dont realy know Basel that well. I study chinese medicine in lucern in a school called "HPS -HeilPraktilerSchule" and train kung fu also in lucern in a shaolin Tempel. But you realy should be fluent in german for those schools :/. And yet I know a verry good therapist in Chinese Medicine that lives in Basel. He was my teacher and is (in my opinion) one of the best in Switzerland. His name is Lukas Zimmermann. Could I help you out in some way? :/
Translation note for English speakers: Jing is also literally, and usually, translated as Essence. By referring only to semen and not ovum (female egg), a supreme and harmonious joining of Yin and Yang leaves out Yin entirely when translating 精 as semen. Ancestral Jing refers to parents more than semen. Thank you, Master Gu.
@@RyderChampouillon I appreciate your commenting. Good point, however, doesn't this make my point? Why not make a balanced statement initially? This is from a woman who has spent her entire life being expected to believe that every time I read the word "man" I was supposed to believe that, Oh, Yes, we mean women, too, except for the people who didn't. I love qigong and TCM and I do not want to have to do contortions in my mind to feel the feminine is included/represented/respected. Balance! I am delighted that you cared enough to comment. I am going to listen again.
I think a little more slack needs to be given to the man for doing his best to translate such a deep and secretive set of practices... yes he is only explaining the basic premise of the nei Jing to, but this internal mapping is so complex its hard to understand to native speakers. Different lineages have different understandings within their own language and underd standing. Considering the ancient culture producing the teachings and the language barrier, it may be better to be grateful for the teaching rather than asking for more in a way that could be better accepted by you and take it for what it is, a gift of knowledge and u derstanding. As it is said the Dao is unknowable and unnamable, it is the same through and through yet we each have a unique vantage point upon it.
Ryder Champouillon it is not being ungrateful that pushes women to be their own beings in the journey of life... quite literary the sacred essence and alchemy of youth and life lies in >>right understanding>I
Thank you so much for going through the immense effort of translating your sacred arts to an international audience - appreciate your effort my good friend
This is a study worthy of many lifetimes. I tried to follow it as much as possible. There is so much. I saw this video some time ago, but it touched me different the second time I watched it. Thank you Master Gu!!...
I thought of making a sculpture to represent the movement of the breath. It was a sheet of water falling into a bed of rock, and behind the water fall a visible fire.
When I was young, me and my friends would intentionally prank each other and talk meanly to each other in a friendly way. Now that I am older, I see that we were practicing Taoism and were teaching each other to become like water and allow insults to roll off of our backs. Nobody taught us to do that, it came naturally. Many of pitfalls in the modern world come from ignoring our natural behavior. The lies that society is built on do not need to be your limitations.
Thank you Master Gu. We looked at this picture at my tai chi club. Your explanation added some interesting points. I really like how it connects to Chinese medicine.
Thank you for such a great kindness to make this for us❤ even in the middle of dinner prep haha. I had a recent dream of a master. You have a similarity to him and I’ve never seen you talk before so it must of been premonition. It happens often. He told me to connect the heart mind channel. Helping me with acupressure to do that. and then he gave me lotus seed tea. He also told me to find some watermelon tourmaline to complete the spiritual part of the remedy.
Thank you so much, Sifu! This is a fascinating subject. I will soon be 70 years old, and I have lost much of my faith in Western medicine. I find myself turning more and more to the ancient wisdoms for relief and a more healthy lifestyle. Although I consider myself a Zen Buddhist, I am drawn more and more to the teachings of Taoism. I like the fact that it provides not only spiritual guidance, but also very practical physical advice and exercises for health and wellbeing.
@@nickname7860 I will be 70 years old tomorrow. I am right in the middle of a forced move. My hip is disintegrating. I am fighting like hell not to give in to depression. You're damn right I'll take a free tip. I still need all the help I can get!
So if I understand correctly, the two main channels or meridians would be first the sacrum, spine, spinal fluid and nerves associated with the spine and the head as the main channel or meridian for heat or chi to travel upward, and the sacrum, C7, and base of the skull are pumps so to say for the chi to rise into the skull. And the second channel is activated by touching the tongue to the roof of the mouth to connect the two channels, now the water channel or front meridian starts with the saliva and you chew the saliva to activate it, then swallow the saliva and follow it with your mind down the throat and down the front meridian through all the organs until you get to the base of the spine again, and that is where you would use this cool water energy from the front meridian to cool the heat in the spine, thus completing the micro cosmic orbit. I know there is a lot more to it but the way I see it is the basic two meridians IMO are the spine, back(heat) and organs, front(water).
Bless you both. By 'water' he does not mean saliva. There is no chewing at all. Your tongue stays at the roof of your mouth during the whole meditation. Your chi is the 'water' and its pressure is the 'heat'. You should consult a teacher to lead you through the proper visualizations and breath work.
Greetings Sifu. Im excited to find this. Life is change and i really need to change which im in the process of doing. I have to visit China and your training centre. Many thanks 🙏
Master Gu.. thank you for making this video..It was Awesome to see the Taoist microcosmic orbit Qi cultivation symbolized in this painting.. You may be surprised at how many westerners cultivate in a Taoist fashion. I've been practicing this method for some time, and over the last 10 years as a Reiki master I have been utilizing that "Heaven Qi' into the circulation as well.
This is right on and it's a story that is told in very many places. I believe the Great Pyramid tells the same story and it is the story of Life. Thank you very much for presenting the story today. Namaste
Thanks just what I needed to hear it all makes so much sense to me the bigger the fire the more wood can be put on to make bigger but it's inportant to control the fire to heat the right size room that's were and what I'm feeling to stay confored in my body you have and are helping me your transition was very clear to me and you didn't get distracted with the noise next to you VERY IMPRESSED. 😊🙏♋
The chart is called Nei Jing Tui, which is usually translated as "The Chart of Inner Luminosity". For a good description of what it represents see "The Way of Qigong" by Kenneth S. Cohen, pp.152-55.
Master Gu, thank you for your “rough introduction” of internal realization. Because of George, i found your wellness academy channel. What a brilliant collection of thoughts and philosophy, expressions, and actualization. Your background, your initial role in life, has served you very well! Your language skills are obviously quite polished, but your tone, your pattern, serve to lull the listener into a deeper, slower consideration of your material creating a very mystical sense of your topics: just absolutely impressive, and insightful. Thank you, kind soul! If but a few minutes away from the hectic rigors of life!
Thank you a lot! It was much information. We also have a training room with this picture where I come from. (Leipzig, Germany) So I knew it, but never did someone explain it to me. I really like explaining pictures. :)
Jīng qì shén (精氣神) can be translated to "essence, energy, spirit." Knowing this helped me better understand when I first learned about The Three Treasures of Daoism. Take note I've taken university courses on Daoism and am familiar with its teachings on a basic level, but felt this could be helpful for others just beginning their journey. I am only a beginner myself spiritually. :)
i read taoistic book of secret of the golden flower. but appart from that i do not have had oportunity to hear or read nothing from profound wisdom of taoism. tao te ting of course but not when it comes to body and spirit and taoist way of grasping this subject. video is great.
This is very useful and enriching. I am so grateful that you are sharing your knowledge with us on RUclips. I have become familiar with some of these ideas through Mantak Chia and many of his methods work very well for me. But I am curious about whether or not his methods are considered true to Taoism or if it is his own innovation or "branch" of Taoism that he is creating. Perhaps it does not matter, just as long as it is useful.
Thank you Master Gu. Question how does the microcosmic breathing differ from the Embryotic breathing? should one of these practice take precedence over the other? Does this chart bring in all five elements ?
Hello master Gu, such an amazing content you deliver here, may i know the name of the breathing exercise that you mention? And about inhalation and exhalation, micro cosmos breathing, (9.13) where is our focus when we want to make our breathing "go up"? I am sorry for my dumb question.. Thankyou master Gu..
I read the Tao Te Ching and saw truth in every sentence. Then I read parts of the Zhuangzi and found unspeakable wisdom. Still I do not see the connection between those texts and this talk.
I do breathing exercises irregularly for more than an year, in some periods I do regularly, but I have not come to feel my lower dantian nor my energy yet and I'm feeling frustrated, I'd like to know how much time you took to start feeling those?
Thank you so much for introducing me to this image! It's there a transcript available for this video? I'm having terrible understanding your accent. It sounded like you said "the three chairs" but I don't think I heard correctly. 😆
