Great article, thanks.

I'd take the amount of time you have for stance training, divide it by the number of stances, and then trade some time between them based on how easy or hard different stances are. You can spend less...

That sounds tough. I'm glad rebuking it worked. That's the advice some of my born-again relatives would have given.

The advice I've heard, and that I believe is true, is to cultivate loving kindness (maitrî) and invite the spirit to nourish itself from your loving kindness. No matter how much it drinks your loving...

Thanks, that sounds like solid advice.

I don't usually feel anything in the channels as such, but distinct regions activate. Or when I activate a region there's often a sympathetic effect in an...

Thanks. Do you mean the movement is the same each time but that your attention is on different internal pathways? I'm pretty sure I was taught the first one of these, or something very similar, at a...

I'd like to hear about it.

Miso soup, qigong and a cat.

I totally believe in there being a natural flow to it. I preface the whole thing with just standing and then a ready stance. And after the eight movements I have another movement I took from...

I've assumed it was a cumulative sequence, but I wasn't taught the theory at all in the traditional learning setting. That makes it a much more exploratory process. In other learning situations...

Yeah, I think it's kind of like how they have many of the same food dishes all around the country but prepare them in the local style.

The version of that move that I learned not only is done...

If we're talking about the same thing, I wonder if the intent comes from a taichi application.

Thanks for the link. Always good to see Yan Lei's instructional stuff. Do you mean the hands during the transition or during the actual drawing of the bow?

I breathe out there. I was instructed to breath "naturally" on 7 of the movements, and only one movement had explicit breathing instructions. But by breathing naturally I ended up synching breathing...

The percussionist in this group died in Beijing police custody after being arrested in 2008 during the "clean-up" of the city ahead of the Olympic Games. Everyone who knew him says he was the most...

I will definitely never watch another movie with Donny Yen in it.

Master as in Master/Apprentice has a different meaning than Master as in Master/Slave.

But ok, in the code they could change it to Spartan/Helot.

I'm by no means a teacher but I've had some experiences similar to yours and been helped by some teachers with good suggestions. I still have so-so hamstrings but my hips are good now. So here's a...

That used to happen to me on one of my rigs. A weird redirect. I figured it was malware in the browser.

Also, I wish admin would make the site use https

Well said. :)

Yes, I think we'd both agree that the methods and aims of academic history are very different from those of Buddhist practice. I'm inclined not to worry if academics arrive at a different story than...
