    Demons and Martial Arts

    Has anyone else ever been confronted with this kind of problem?

    An instructor in my area is calling on the demons, according to some of his students he has them meditate away from the light and into the dark to bring the power of the demons to them. Telling them after a certain level of training that it is the only way they can continue their training under him and it is the only way of reaching their true potentials.

    When things like this get out, and it did in my comunity, it turns people away from Martial Arts thinking we all do the same things. The # of people who would inquire about class dropped off considerably when some of his students started talking about what was going on.

    well... demons eh?

    sounds pretty absurd, but then, I've heard more absurd stuff than that.

    Tell him to stuff his demons up his ass in the middle of a meditation session. Then attack him with sticks and beat him until he's all welted up. Then tar and feather him, then run him out of town on a rail. Then get some real karate into town.

    then start training martial arts without a speed addict with delusions.
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    Well, demons are pretty powerful. You really should have a protective circle down if you're going to summon them though.

    crack is wack.

    You must now go deep into the Norse mountains and find the ancient hammer Mjolnir, only this will protect you from the demons.

    When I was very young, Kung-Fu was associated with Devil worship, and many kids in my hood were not allowed to take it. Sounds all too familiar.

    So none of you have had idiots like this in your area I take it.

    Like the jokes though

    You sure you weren't watching a rerun of Buffy The Vampire Slayer?
    Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

    fortunately I live in a major metropolitan, so needless to say, hacks like that go down with a quickness. Cause i live here so everyone gets free demon away powder.

    ****, you guys act like you never heard of this freaky ****e before.

    It sounds like a version of the spirit possession meditations. The idea being that you invite a spirit of an ancestor to inhabit and empower you, naturally, a fearsome one, perhaps Uncle Lee the Eye Plucker, or even Gwan Gung himself. You work yourself into a kinda trance from what I've been told.

    This gives you added courage to launch into combat. It allegedly can drive you crazy as well... Again, I'm no expert, but I think it is more prevelent in Hakka arts.

    I'm not sure, but I think it was the kind of thing used in the boxer rebellion that made the rebels feel as if they were bullett proof. Naturally, it was an illustion.

    As for demons, well, all I can say is ,"don't go to the dark side, Luke."
