cultural transformation and ecological sustainability among the dai people in xishuangbanna

Posted on 26. Mar, 2012 by James Miller in BUDDHISM, BUDDHISM, BUDDHISM, BUDDHISM, conservation, dai, Fieldwork, holy hills, xishuangbanna

A conservation biologist by training, I first arrived in Xishuangbanna because of my interest in the ecological value of sacred groves called “holy hills,” fragments of old-growth rainforest that remain protected by indigenous Dai people despite rapid deforestation due to the proliferation of rubber plantations.

2012 the 5th Daoist Qigong Breathing Retreat

Posted on 06. Mar, 2012 by Jane X. Jin in Conference Notice, 2012, breathing, Daoist Qigong, Fasting, healing, Retreat, vitality
4th Daoist Qigong Breathing Worshop at the Mandala Retreat Center

The 5th in a series of annual retreats on Daoist Qigong practices, this follows a tradition that began in Montreal (2008) and continued through Shambala Center & San Diego (2009), San Diego (2010), and New Mexico (2011).

The core practice is the newly introduced revolutionary Breathing Meditation that is rooted from Daoist Yin Yang Tuna(阴阳吐纳法)，combined with wind-breathing (风呼吸) and natural abdomen breathing methods to ignite the Dantian fire(丹田点火).
