Baji

[SPJ]

Thank you Omar for your kind reference.

Yep! Omar, I am always amused at that story--Ding ZiCheng--in his 40s knocking over a 20 something Liu with 10 years of baji training. LOL

I always wondered why the Wu Tan clan didn't become more fascinated with Ding ZiCheng and his 6 Harmony mantis and Wu style taiji and this "soft" approach instead of the obsessional quest of power via the baji system--I think it might have been the idea of killing someone with one shot--very efficient. LOL

Everyone seems to have become overly attached, in my opinion, to Li Shu Wen, who I think could possibly have had some pretty heavy sociopathic tendencies. LOL You have to wonder what the big draw is to baji on a deep psychological level--but that is for another time and place--I really do like the baji training beyond the xiao baji posture holding. LOL

If I remember correctly;

Zhang Xiang San was the first disciple of Ding.

He carried the school name and taught publicly 6 harmony mantis in Taiwan.

GM Liu never taught 6 harmony publicly.

only on a rare occasion that he showed his 6 harmony mantis.

It was out of respect of the school name and for the first disciple etc.

Correct me if I am wrong.
