Do you Know where it is?

[hskwarrior]

Evidence of the Hung Society is found all over the Hung Sing Choy Lee Fut within our lineage. I didn't know this until I really started paying attention to the Hung Mun, although my sifu has been a member for something like 40 years, and is still a recognized elder within the hung mun. But after learning where the Hung Mun elements are, it has me interested in other systems.

This question qoes out to ALL southern systems. The Hung Society was majorly influential then, and most systems DO carry some indication of it.

Do you know where YOUR Hung influence is?

Do you know where YOUR Hung influence is?

Dude, you are making this too easy !
LOL !

On a serious note, I do Hung Kuen, its kind of obvious.

[hskwarrior]

See, I don't know Hung Gar, and I don't know how or if any of you know where your "Hung Mun Secret Society" elements were.

for instance what in Hung Gar will tell someone you are from the Hung Mun?

Im only asking because I don't know. I mean, i know where the Hung Mun elements are in my Hung Sing CLF, and since i don't know chan family clf, i don't know where theirs is.

so sanjuro ronin,

if i were to be watching you, what are the signals in your gung fu that would tell me you are Hung Mun?

I will have to get back to you because I am too bust LMAO off at what you just wrote !

[hskwarrior]

well thats cool, i did exactly as you did when you said you met Lau Bun with you father. Now, that was a real knee slapper. so i guess we're on the same page then.

but the question is.......are you going to skirt the question and keep laughing, acting as if you do KNOW something (kinda like the lau bun thing) or are you going to contribute to it?

i have a sneaky feeling you are like bowels ready to blow hot air.

[sanjuro_ronin]

Supposedly, legend has that Hung Ga/Kuen was the orginal MA of choice of the Hung Mun.
Thing like the low stances, certain hand formations and the "kim yueng ma" stance, are suppose to be "typical" of Hung Mun MA.
But I never paid much attention to that stuff to be truthful.

[hskwarrior]

anyways, I am speaking about what hand postures, not horse stances.

I will give a little, within our Hung Sing lineage is a crane's beak, and the cranes beak done in a certain way tells a Hung Mun member that you or your system is a Hung Mun related school.

Sanjuro, there are certain tell tale signs that we ALL over look, even me until i started doing my research. I was like, WTF? THAT'S a HUNG MUN THING? You mean i've been doing it all along?

[sanjuro_ronin]

Tell me, how, when you are a year younger than me, did you ever get to meet a man that died 2 years before you were born?

WHAT ???
Dude...are we talking about the same thing here??

I think you have me mistake for some one else.

[hskwarrior]

so, im confused now.

I asked you "what HUNG MUN elements" such as hand signals, or things we thought were techniques......but were actually a secret meaning within the form.

But, you mention horse stances.

What i mean is like the "1 finger to the sky" thing. or other postures.

for example, a downwards cross block with palms facing your body. we all may see it as a technique, but it is a call signal for the hung mun. its all there. i was just seeing if anyone was up to discussing it.

i wasn't out to make you bust out lmao or anything.

I never mentioned Lau Bun or meeting anyone with my father...
I really think you are mistaking me for someone else.

sanjuro, '

you're right, wrong RONIN.....it was once ronin i was speaking of. my bad.

but still, you aren't helping me out here bro.

ever since i found out what was Hung Mun in our stuff, now i want to see other southern systems and what theirs are.

we aren't in a revolution, so no need to hide this stuff.

[hskwarrior]

specifically,

what im looking for is YOUR SECRET CALL SIGNS that are located within your forms, that would tell a hung mun member that you too are of the Hung Mun.

I would tell more, but i don't want people all of a sudden inserting it then saying "oh yeah, we got THAT too."

No problem.
I never pais that much attention to the hand signs and stuff, kiu Sao and a few others are suppose to have hidden Hung Mun meanings, even our dragon claw is supposedly one too.
I take these things with a grain of salt when all is said and done...

[hskwarrior]

of course, it really has nothing to do with fighting.

but, since i've been heavily researching the Hung Mun, I've been noticing that secret call signs were all over my choy lee fut. I knew there was a connection, but not to how deep.

But since, i have been researching, many things have come to light. Our history is my passion, so in my freetime i trace our lineage, roots, and what not. bUT WHEN im training or training my guys, i focus on the fighting aspect of our gung fu.

as i said earlier, what i thought were just techniques, were actually secret call signs allowing another member gung fu or otherwise to recognize you as part of the family.
