My "Daoist Talisman for FS and Blessing" class was held in Mexico City last weekend. The date has
clashed the Mexican National Soccer Team's World Cup appearance in Munich.
Soccer is the national religion of Mexico, even their on-going presidential election has to avoid clashing
these soccer match dates.
Then I've some "concerned" or "worry-some" individuals on different lists expressing some "nice" and "not so
nice" comments about me and the class.
I thank all of these concerned people--- my class is a sold out and have to add another class in September or
October.
To alleviate the fear sown intentionally or unintentionally by some "concerned" individuals, I've
taught the class two non-Daoist techniques of cleansing and securing a building and also setting up
protection shield for the practitioner. These techniques are also applicable for FS audits.
We have done a class meditation. Two psychics in the class can "see" Daoist and Buddhist deities in the
classroom filled with golden light.
But this class is not about religion or focus on just one religion. It is more than just doodling. It is
about building up strong will-power, sincerity, good intention and living a righteous life-- if you want
your talismans to be powerful.
I've stressed that Daoist talisman is only ONE of the ways to draw talismans and there are over 5+ different
Daoist schools that have different ways of drawing. If anyone claims his way is the best way or only way
to draw, the person is a nut.
In fact, there are more similarities than differences when comparing Eastern and Western ways of drawing
talisman. Both involving pretty much the same processes... purification of materials, meditate,
invocation of deities or natural power, charging or empowering.....
Students are required to design and draw a talisman to get the class certificate.
Even to my surprise, this class has generated the most laughs compare to ALL of my classes. It is rare to
see a class laughs at least one third of the time.
But I guess just the Feng Shui section on how to handle Grand Duke alone worths the price of the
course.
The next Talisman class will be in Mexico City again (in English and Spanish) and then in Poland (Wroclaw,
in English and Polish).
