    No - it was just a general question - just to see where people go if they need some info on this topic etc.

    I was just interested to see what people may use from time to time -apart from this great forum of course...and if there was anything out there I had not come across. Im always on the lookout for anything new.

    No. My only resource is my teacher. I used books and forums and websites before I came to him, but that only further confused my progress. YMAA books were good on details, and to help after you already knew, but not to learn from. So I wouldnt suggest looking for websites... But thats up to you.

    Yes that goes without saying - this was just from the perspective of what is available online.

    Sorry then if I misunderstood the purpose. When I was first learning I would visit the www.ymaa.com forum a lot. sometimes they would clear up my confusion... sometimes they would make me further confused. I practice a little Kun Lun so I hit up thier site. thats about it online. I read The books Root of Chinese Qigong; Qigong, the Secret of Youth; Qigong Meditation, Embryonic Breathing from Yang Jwing Ming, I read Health Sex and Longevity and Qigong and Traditional Chinese Medicine by Daniel Reed, and a Qigong book by William Cohen. Now the only recourse I use is the charts of the meridians in Root of Chinese Qigong...

    some various versions of my teacher's website; as a Daoist, he can b sumwhat chaotic, so there is overlap between them to varying degrees and things are not "organized", but there are interesting nuggets buried throughout

    We free-spirited Taoists prefer to think of it as free-form, or free-from-form!

    What appears as chaotic to some is spontaneous organization to others!

    Of course it appears to the "form-bound" that nothing ever gets done that way, but to the "free-from-form" person everything is already as it should be and therefore is complete from the beginning!
