Nonresistance doesnt neccessarily mean doing nothing. All it means is that any "doing" becomes nonreactive. Remember the deep wisdom underlying the practice of eastern martial arts: Dont resist the opponent's force. Yield to overcome.
... The real "doing nothing" implies inner nonresistance and intense alertness.

The ego believes that in your resistance lies your strength, whereas in truth resistance cuts you off from Being, the only place of true power. ........



End the delution of time. Time and mind are inseparable....
To be identified with your mind is to trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively throught memory and anticipation. This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future and an unwillingness to honor and acknowledge the present moment and allow it to be. The compulsion arises because the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, or fulfillment in whatever form. Both are illusion. ----- Eckhart Tolle


Eckhart can explain Leong Jan's No me No standard momements. no state.... very well while others missed the marks big time.

This has to do with facing SLT in Catagory 2.

Chan is not an empty words. Using silence to subdue action, Chi Dar..... are not empty concept. Without clearly understand them, there is no way to implement them.

True power comes from heart. Kuen comes from heart. which heart is that? the resisting? the Non resisting? the fighting? the believe that the past gives one an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, or fulfillment in whatever form, where trap oneself in the time and space?

when one calls oneself a sifu, a GM.., an identity.. there is where the time trapping started...

NOW or This instant never dies. Spring always great but it is always not the same spring.

"Always flow with it. hot or cold. - Hendrik"

We have this into four levels:

1. Beginning level: Keep or hold his power using the fundamental basics of crossing hands.

2. 2nd level: Let go of his power

3. 3rd level: Follow his action

4. 4th level: Natural fighting or shadow boxing where you just dance with whatever tunes he plays.

So our engine is continually upgraded by each new level that we achieve.

Sanford Strong's four rules of self defence:

1. Act immediately.

2. RESIST.

3. Crime scene #2 (don't let him move youelsewhere!)

4. Never give up.

Guess it depends on context or something.

Pual,


Nice catagolization.

care to post a little more specific into each?

[PaulH]

From what I understand of Gary's system, the 4 points above are the subdivisions of YM popular kuit: "Receive what comes (Keep & let go), escort what goes (Follow), and when hands free thrust forward (Attack his emptiness)"

Such WC skills require a calm and detached mind, a developed and conditioned body/mind/spirit, and a correct understanding of hand/body/leg works - its wrongs and rights (how to fix your wrong to make it right as well as how to make his right to be wrong).

The question is how do you go about to achieve these skills? As Gary put it, he had numerous students in HK, but those who actually got the system are less than the number of his fingers after many decades of teaching! The students somehow just "did not get it!" and stuck to more or less basic WC level years after years. To make a very long story mercifully short, please check out the current curriculum at his website. It contains the complete road map to these four mentioned skills. You'll find a fistful of drills for a few more skills. ZZZZZZZZZzzzz..... =)
