Daoist Principles in Practice

Energy Cultivation, Self Refinement, Meditation

The great purpose of Taiji is the great purpose of life itself – internal evolution. All are born to this but most quickly forget why they are here.

Once enmeshed in the physical world, life serves merely the body's survival. Society's physical and social edifices, intended as forms within which humanity may evolve, become prisons.

Many dream of escape but few find the practical path to freedom.

Daoist Principles in Practice

True Taiji

There is only one true Taiji, one set of principles. Human deviation gave rise to family styles (Yang, Wu, Chen etc) which each has strengths and weaknesses. Their strengths are where they follow the principles and their weaknesses are where they deviate from the principles.

We emphasize the waist movement (twisting wave) of the Chen Style, the advancing (issuing transverse wave) power of the Yang Style, the borrowing of partners force (neutralising vertical pressure wave) of the Wu style. We follow my teachers advice: "Go back to the first principles before the styles diverged."

Meditation

waking up the inner mind,
then entering the Beyond.
