How to correctly practice the Zhan Zhuang posture with hands in the LDT area?

Are the hands facing the LDT or facing upwards?

I've seen people doing both.

In the famous Lam Kam Chuen's book "The Way of Energy" his second ZZ posture(LDT focus) has the hands facing upward(to the sky) and not the body(LDT area).

If, according to Damo Mitchell, Zhan Zhuang is not good as a static posture to build Qi, then what should I use? Help please I'm lost

In this video in the end he says that ZZ is not that efficient for building Qi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXlxAw6EkBA

Then what should I do, I only know Zhan Zhuang, what other static postures or techniques can I use???

What is the purpose of Small Universe practice from Spring Forest Qigong?

I always hear people talking about it and how it's one of the greatest techniques, etc...

But I really don't understand it, I mean, why is it so good?

Does it build Qi? Then I could understand it's use. Besides that I think it's just another "Qi circulation practice".

Found this in another forum about this type of karma, is this true? I never heard of it before, can someone explain more about this?

Quote:

"suppressing sexual desires is a karma related to swadhishtan chakra ( sex chakra) so this karma stored in the chakra may explode in future life times. So that's why teacher is very important in learning cultivation arts"

How does the "Names of the Deities" relate to it's main deity? I'll explain below

I know the title seems confusing I'll try to explain:

What I'm trying to know is, for example, one of the names of Lord Shiva is "Mahakala", if we practice Mahakala are we also worshipping Lord Shiva?

In the same way, one of the 1000 names of Lalita Tripurasundari is "Kurukulle", if we practice Kurukulle are we also worshipping Lalita in some way?

This game should have only 20 classes max and prioritize skill trees inside them to change effects, anything above 20 classes will be just another variant or something super unbalanced just to say they have something "new"

How to practice the mantras I have initiation daily without going through the whole sadhanas of each one?

Can I just do them to keep the "connection" with the deity?

For example, I like Medicine Buddha, Kurukulle, Chenrezig, but if I add these sadhanas to my daily sadhanas I would spend like 4h daily with practices which is impossible for me.

So I was wondering if Tibetans have a lot of initiations and don't practice the majority of them, or if they simply recite the mantras 108x or 21x daily if they don't have the time to do the sadhana.

How does this work?

And if it's possible to do this, I would like to do it before my daily sadhanas so I would recite one mala of each. To do this do I need to do any visualization? Should I visualize myself as the deity if I don't go through the sadhana generation process?

Is it true that tantric deities protect the practitioner when someone does harm to them by giving it back in the same proportion?

Is it true for all tantric initiates?

I heard Devi protects Sri Vidya initiates, but what about other tantric paths?

What is this "karma acceleration" thing? How long can it last?

I was reading a post and I think this is what is happening to me...

Almost 10 years ago I did some mantras without Guru Diksha nor supervision, they were:

Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha 108x

Om Namah Shivaya 108x

Kleem 108x

But then my life just went completely wrong and I just stopped any mantra practice until like 1 year ago when I came back to it.

Can this "karma acceleration" thing happen for like 7 YEARS???

I think I hit a wall almost 7 years ago when I started naam jaap, maybe I had like TOO MUCH karma to be cleansed, is it possible??

To be honest I'm still lost in life, 7 years later.

Is it true that tantric practitioners have something like a "shield" which sends back someones evil deeds if they do something bad to us? Like an amplifier that send back a heavier karma

And is this officially written somewhere?

I heard that whoever does bad things, even wishing bad things for a Tantric Practitioner will become "cursed", I mean not literally cursed, but I mean in a way that these bad intentions and when they try to harm us it will be sent back to them in some way.

But I'm not talking of ordinady bad karma, I heard that for tantrikas it's like a deity protection, it's something more deep than just "bad karma going back to them".

Is it true that Hindu tantric practitioners have something like a "shield" which increases someones bad karma if they do something bad to us or even if they have the intention of harming a tantric practitioner?

And is this officially written somewhere?

I heard that whoever does bad things, even wishing bad things for a Tantric Practitioner will become "cursed" for many of his/her next lifes.

Is this true?
