thank you for your interest in the scholarly details of the Taoist cucumber cleanse!
I appreciate your detailed viewing of the video and for allowing me the opportunity to elaborate on my favorite subject matters - martial arts, Taoist practices and myself.
While Hegre Sex Ed videos are designed mostly for visual pleasure, we keep the lengthy shots of clothed women giving long winded diatribes to a minimum. And so, I will elaborate here. I want to preface by saying that I consider myself a practitioner of many arts integrating modalities and offering them with the intention of benefitting all people and do not consider myself a scholar. With this in mind, I would love to elaborate on the details of the practices here and respond to each of your concerns. Let’s dig in:
J: "Yoni" is Sanskrit. Taoism is from Shandong Province, in the north east of China, nowhere near India, ( thousands of kms) and with zero Indian culture.
B: I find 'Yoni' more poetic than Vagina
Great observation! The reason I use the Yoni is because it is simply a more poetic word than vagina! If I say vagina, I know everyone will understand me, but I just feel that it is crass. If I use the Mandarin word for vagina, Yindao, although beautiful, I feel it would leave too many questioning. I settled on Yoni. The word Yoni, though Sanskrit, is fast becoming a modern synonym for vagina, hence the reason that I use it. I also use it in the title of my book that my Hegre Sex Ed videos are taken from:
The Yoni Care Handbook a 116 page manual on the care of vaginas and you can buy it on www.empoweredlover.com.
J: “I hold a Masters Degree in Asian Studies…Taoism is less than 2000 years old.”
B: Yes! Religions Taoism dates back 2,000 years, yet the Taoist tradition is said to date back at least 5,000 years Thousands of years can be gained by replacing the word 'religion' with 'tradition' or 'practice'. You may be speaking of religious Taoism and I am speaking of the Taoist tradition.
Derek Lin, Taoist historian has this to say: "Many people interested in the Tao are still under the impression that Lao Tzu founded Taoism about 2,500 years ago. There is some truth to this, as long as we are only talking about philosophical Taoism (Dao Jia) or religious Taoism (Dao Jiao). However, the one thing that most people do not realize is that both variants of Taoism came from a much older tradition, known to the Chinese simply as the Tao. It is not possible for Lao Tzu to be the founder of this ancient tradition for the simple reason that it began at least 2,300 years before his time." Fu Hsi, the originator of ancient China is reported to have been the originator of the Tao concept 5,000 years ago. Fu Hsi taught that the Tao was the underlying pattern of the cosmos and it explores the wisdom of understanding the way things are and letting life unfold without interference. (1)
The reason I say the Taoist lineage is 4,000 years old is because one of my Taoist Grandmasters is the lineage holder of a 4,000 year old Taoist Sect.
More interesting than the dates of the origin of the Taoism is the actual world view itself!
A Taoist
“TAOIST are self-motivated spiritual seekers who follow and respect the way of the TAO. They promote the concept of taking more personal responsibility for their actions and being more pro-active in their own healing, health maintenance and spiritual evolution, through their unique practices of QIGONG and MEDITATION. They tend to avoid extremes and don’t believe in relying on large groups of people for moral support nor would they strictly follow any one single person or figurehead for total spiritual understanding. Rather, they prefer to keep the company and advice of a few good friends, but mostly seek guidance and inspiration directly from Nature, by quietly observing her truth in action.
For example, one Taoist approach towards dealing with heavy or volatile emotions such as guilt, fear, sadness, anger, etc, would be to cleanse the body, mind and spirit with periodic fasting from foods, negative thoughts, environments and or people. And, wherever possible, they would also immerse themselves into more natural surroundings and elements such as clean flowing water, clean air, beautiful plants and trees, sunshine and moonlight, and then simply begin to practice deep abdominal breathing.” (2)

J: “Shaolin Master? The Shaolin are not Taoists, they are Buddhists. Wrong religion.”
B: Who says a Shaolin Master cannot study Taoist wisdom?
Being a historian, I’m sure you can understand when I wanted to know about sex, I couldn’t find any Shaolin sexual tradition, as they were celibate, so I found a Taoist sect. The White Tigress Taoist Sect to be exact. My teacher, world renown Chinese historian, Hsi Lai, was the first to bring the teachings of the White Tigress sect to the West. He wrote "The Sexual Teachings of the White Tigress", an intriguing book I think you may enjoy. The cucumber cleanse comes from this White Tigress Taoist tradition.
J: “There is no way you have a 4000 year old "Taoist" technique.”
B: I don’t really know how long women have been using cucumbers to cleanse their yonis... or vaginas. All I know is that I was taught this practice from The White Tigress teachings which are Taoist. (3)
J: "Why are you totally bullshitting people? You assume that all of your subscribers are illiterate."
B: Better than assuming you are celibate and just showing me sitting there fully clothed talking about history!
We do feel that Hegre Sex Ed viewers are illiterate though assume that most are here to look at pretty women. While I would love to sit there fully clothed and talk about history for hours, Pettre insists I have a naked model!
I am not available to speak directly to each response here thought anyone that is interested in further communications can contact me on empoweredlover.com
Thank you for being interested and I hope you continue to enjoy Hegre Sex Ed.
