Want to Join the Mo Pai?

To the people have contacted me privately, hoping for an introduction or invitation to join the esoteric nei kung (internal energy) school of Mo Tzu: sorry, folks. It is, by all accounts, extremely difficult to become a disciple of the Mo Pai—and joining is actually the easy part!

Although I can’t hook you up with a membership, I am still interested in hearing your story. What are your reasons for wanting to join the Mo Pai?

    I’m not going to post my motivations so everyone here can read, but I will tell you that I am seriously committed and already train meditation and chi from various sources (especially tips I attained from Kosta’s books on John Chang). If you can help me become a student in anyway please email me on jiyasa@hotmail.com

    I find John Chang an inspiration to all of us. He is a great man and even though the possibility of becoming a student of his has become a somewhat impossibility. I would still like to have the privalige of meeting someone that is further along the path. Just being in his presence would keep me motivated on carrying on and help to raise my state of conciousness and understanding. If there is any way for me to meet him and just have a talk with him, it would be greatly appreciate, thank you for your time,
    Kind regards,
    Nicolas

    Hello, I hope you are well!
    I am interested in more information about this practice because I see and experience the necessity to use these energies to heal. I recognize them within myself.

    If it is possible I would like to meet or speak with someone about it.
    Thanks : ) Take care!

    I think John Chang is the only person that is part of a real practise and decided to go public. I think 98% of the Qigong practitioners are very ineficient in their practice because the system their are practicing is incomplete and even wrong. For example John Chang emphasises the difference between Yin chi and Yang chi - and the importance for learning both, while the rest of the world just tries to feel the chi. I asked a taiji master what is the difference and he bluntly replied that to him “it’s just chi” and it’s the same.
    Of course I would be very interested in studing with John Chang but he is all about hiding his school. I guess he doesn’t understand how much more he could help the world if he had a lot of trained personnel under his guidance. He could really make a difference in the world.

    Hi,
    As an acupuncturist, herbalist, and Tui Na practitioner as well as a student of Chen style Taiji, I am very interested in these paractices. I have also studied Medical Qigong for several yrs and have always been amazed by the videos of John Chang ( I first saw him over 10 yrs ago in the Ring of Fire video). I’ve meant to find out more about him, but seeing things online, I never knew where to turn to short of going to Indonesia. I would like to find out how to study any of these practices, be it with Kosta Danaos, or David Verdesi. If you know of any way for me to get in contact with anyon to study I would be very grateful. I live in San Ferancisco…

    I wish to find inner peace and balance within myself.

  • 10 Evangelos Lathopolous // Jun 8, 2008

    To open my faculties completely. As a tool for further development. To honour the gift as a gift from God the creator and source of all things. To bring peace to all in my path, and annihilation of obscurities and falsities within that will be reflected without. All is one, so the inner world is reflected in the outer world. It is my sword and shield, my path to the inner world and path to the creator. The stone and the pond, the two in one where the cause and effect come together. One in the same. Beginning and the End. Alpha and omega.

    It teaches me more of myself as the creation and myself as a god, transcending limits, and understanding and being.

    I beleive that there is a lot can be done with this, and is very very useful for the great plan and rise of order that is in all chaos.

    I truly feel sorry for the masters, and the burden that this is to carry, for it is indeed a gift, and a curse, as is the whole of existence. I expect that there is a lot of Karma and damage that can result with this system.

    Reality is relative as is the truth, and this experience would be incredible for everyone in their time, when mine is I cannot say, and even less for others. Some things in life are preordained, some are not.

    Whoever spins the wheel of fortune must have an idea of where it will land for all of us.

    Whoever forces things will take the consequence fairly upon their imprudence, for all things have their time.

    I can only make myself available and make it known I am interested.

    I trust the teachers and know that god willing they will pick the right student and I let go of the desire to move without a sign. I can only await like a virgin in the night.

    This stuff is always frought with worms, as the good and the bad play out for a divine purpose, however the lessons are without value if people “can’t get it”.

    May we all find our life purpose. peace and clarity to all.

    at http://www.chutaichi.com/onlinestore/bookofneikung.html there is a book explaining what this art is and how to replicate it. YOU MUST KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!!

    I myself have practiced this a while ago and had a pencil almost stab me in the eye due to the lack of ability to control the force behind the pulling force. At the time i had no idea what i was doing, but since i was about 11. I have been trying to find out how to replicate this event. REMEMBER! This is a respected art. There are great and horrible consiquences for those who use it without thinking and for harm.

    Please contact me if you need to find out information. my e-mail is dillon.summerlin@knology.net

    Do not use my e-mail for spam! This is a serious matter. Thank you.

    I wish to join because I feel it is my destiny the path will follow.

  • 13 Brett // Jul 13, 2008

    i want to know and understand what we as human beings are capable; especially on the verge of an evolution of consciousness

    i want to strengthen myself to help save others. we are in a state of trying times and i believe this training is necessary for the survival of our world.

  • 14 Ahsan Gill // Jul 18, 2008

    I want to learn this art because I feel so drwn to everything clairvoyant. I have no teacher and ive been learning to manifest and control chi for the past year, I am 14 years old. I didn’t even tell my parents when I had my first obe, but after the OBE I felt drawn to learn about the ancient arts. In other words I need a teacher to guide me through this.

    When I was young, I always thought there was more to this world then what we know, as I grew up, I was beginning to lose faith on that. I was just about to give up and hope that the next life I would learn more, and then I found this video as well many other information. Then I came into contact with a Genbukan dojo in my city, there are only 7 dojos in canada, and Soke had trained with this man “john chang”… I want to learn this because my soul is craving it, and I feel it has been craving this knowledge for more then this life time…I know in this life I will learn this, and I hope that any attempt I make, will bring me closer to this knowledge

  • 16 Tommy // Jul 28, 2008

    I am a student in the martial arts of Kyusho Jitsu, Ryukyu kempo, small circle ju-jitsu, and modern arnis. I am interested in expanding my knowledge not only of self defense, but the knowledge to heal. These art forms will survive only if those of us take the time t learn them, make good use of them, and pass them on to those who carry the humility and honor to pass them forward. I want to reach the full potential God has granted me and give back to the world before my time here comes to pass.

    Thanks so much,

    Hey,

    well, a late answer to this I guess, but I want to learn the mo-pai neikung to further my ability as a doctor and to get stronger as an individual. Naturally I would love any way of getting a chance to get in touch with someone who practices and get some tips or so to get started. I live in Sweden, so I am far away from where the action about all this is. If I got a lead and an opportunity to get started I’d jump on a flight pretty much anywhere though… who wouldn’t?

    My own knowledge of martial arts is limited, but I have in the past practiced Bagua, and am now practicing wudang taichi chuan with it’s version of neikung techniques.

    If anyone has any information, or just wants to discuss taoist philosophy or homebrewn neigong techniques, throw me an email; joakimhagstrom@hotmail.com

    First of all I’m really faszinated of John Chang he is a very great master.
    I figured always that we humans can do a lot of incredible things.
    I have red the book NEIKUNG by Kosta Danaos and it was overcoming for me.
    I practice Tai chi yang and I stand every day one hour to collect my yang chi. Besides I meditate too.

    When everyone understand yang chi and yin chi and work with this energies than can this change the world and everyone can live in harmony.

    My dream is to lern Mo Pai NEIKUNG.

    I seek people who help me to lern NEIKUNG . Besides I seek people who think like me and also faszinated of John Chang.

    Please contact me.

    I am really new to this. But since a young age have always felt my breathing was more important then just processing oxygen. I feel pulses when I inhale and feel there is something more to life that I was meant to discover. For whatever reason I always knew the human body had secrets that I know is there and achievable, but cannot grasp. John Chang has helped me feel more proud of my ideas. I dont want to be a martial artist. Just enlightened, and in some control of my chi. I am a very peaceful person. And whatever anger I have I try to control and deal with within myself. I feel whatever path I am aimed toward has to do with qigong teachings. If anyone can direct and assist me I will be sincerely appreciative. Thank you

  • 20 T // Aug 4, 2008

    “Life without risk…” First, I love all of you. You are all martial artist and are all looking and hoping for direction and to become better… I hope it helps to say that we must look inward and to the lessons that we’ve read but paid little attention to. I would love to be a student too, but I have chosen my path just like many others. But how can I learn without being a student? Look back to Kosta’s works and see if anything sticks out. Mr. Lim??? Here, is the most evil man next to Lucifer himself. Both blinded by rage of revenge and physically. Who taught him? No one taught him. He made his life of one single purpose and focused his existence, every emotion, and every minute of every hour he focused like a laser beam… And nothing stood in the way of his training. Learning by yourself IS extremely dangerous and can kill you. But it is not impossible. And the one or two thing I’ve done so far have both frightened and exhilarated me… And even if I fail, like most martial artist, I have no fear of death… Every day I get up and I risk my life for stuff that I could care less about, for other people’s causes and wars… Why not risk it for my causes? Fear is our greatest enemy. Not trying at all because you’re afraid is our greatest failure. At the end of everything, I’d like to stand before The Creator and say that for at least one lifetime, and for at least one moment, I figured it all out. I think I may get a smile out of The Creator for that. Maybe enough of us can make it to create more schools for the vast amounts who want to learn and change the face of the planet… In any case, I HAVE CHOSEN MY PATH! Good luck to all of you… Don’t walk in fear.

    i have always wanted to learn this internal style not to harm or to impress just so i can be that much closer to the world around us im sure this sounds hilarious to some people but when i first saw the original movie when john chang was introduced to the world i have just felt if he could do such an amazing and wonderful thing i wanted to be able to do the same or even surpass his abilities to help people the way he does is just amazing he inspires and opens peoples minds to what we could accomplish in our own lives if we just try

  • 26 Sora // Aug 13, 2008

    I simply aim to become the greatest bujin of all time.That is my ambition,also i must become stronger,more powerful for my sake of keeping a promise to THAT precious person in my life.I swore to her that i’d always protect her no matter what.So me as a martial warrior intend to keep my promise.

  • 27 Houston // Aug 13, 2008

    John Chang is awesome. I studied Southern Praying Mantis (Juk Lum Tong Long) for a while, and was told quite a bit about Qi Gung. But at the time, I just wanted to kick butt so I could not have cared less about the “Qi stuff” as I called it. But what John does is simply amazing - it reaffirmed my faith in the unseen - that there is more to this universe we can be connected, and can commune with. It would be an honor to be touched by the man, so much more an honor to be his student. I think realistically, I would just like to get a healing session from him. A mentorship is just too much to request from this caliber of individual. After all, a Master picks his students. In this world of bull****, in the business of Truth, its a sellers market. Lots of love John, and thanks so much for your revelations.

  • 28 Stephen L // Aug 14, 2008

    I would first heal myself and then return to helping others.

    It feels like this is the thing I’ve been searching for my whole life.

    All I need now is to find a true Master to show my dedication to.

    in case anyone can help sly191@hotmail.com
