Overview

You probably already know, but there are two parts of the practical methods of martial arts and Qigong in Chinese Gongfu. In traditional Chinese martial arts, there are two kinds of styles: external and internal. There are four major classic schools in internal martial arts. They are Wudang, Taiji, Xinyi and Bagua, and each of the methods has many branches. Qigong also has so many sects and branches that nobody knows the exact number. I practiced some kind of external martial arts in high spirit to the age of twenty four. However, I soon transferred to the methods of internal style martial arts when I met Mr. Jing, an orthodox Gongfu master of Taoism when I was twenty three. He told me to practice the internal method and Qigong after twenty five, for the purpose of health and fitness, and accords from the rules of Taoist Gongfu cultivation. He then taught me Wudang style methods that had been lost in Taoism. I spent 7 years. During this time, I began to teach external methods, and learnt the methods of Xingyi and Bagua, the qi practice of healing, the acupuncture and Tuina (Chinses massage) from the great masters recommended by Mr. Jing. For the Taiji method, I practiced Wu style, learnt from Mr. Zhang, one of my neighbors and received real instruction of the method of the fast (big circle) and slow forms (small circle) . Two year after Taiji, I put my heart into the religious style Qigong method. From 1990's, I went into the biggest Qigong organization at the time and years after enrolled into the study of Qigong Science. This is the second book that I wrote. A Great Way is the first book, which describes and clarifies the relationship between Chinese Gongfu culture and Western science.

Author Information

The author practiced Chinese traditional Kungfu of the external and internal styles, learnt the Chinese traditional massage and practiced the Taoist and Buddhist Chigungunder the guide of the senior masters, before 1990's.So many years had spent, I still had not understood the purpose of kungfu practicing. At 1990's I started to practice ZNG (zhinen gong) that was the biggest chigung organization in China at the time. Three year later, I rolled into the study of the subject of Chigung Science. During the studying, I was clear about the truth of kungfu practicing, it is the Inner Practice, is one kind of the practical activities of man. Chinese chigung and traditional martial art, Indian Yoga, they are the forms of the inner practice. In the practice, the practitioners'mind must focus inward to regulate the internal force to link and connect with the natural force by the will power of his/her self to promote the health level and enhance the will power itself. To the inner practice, the most important doing for the practitioners is do to surmount actively the idea of the one-desire and stand the mind for the public in non-location.This is the real purpose to the practitioners of kungfu
