Tai chi chuan - One of the simplest ways of living
Among the problems experienced by new students to Taichi would be that they often complain they often not remember the moves. Because Tai chi chuan relaxes your body and dulls the thought processes, the moves are often easily forgotten however the essential advantage of Taiji quan i.e. the meditative experience is remembered. As it is made available to their being.Here is the beauty of Tai chi chuan. The inner experience outweighs the outer of the newcomer and it is really an unfamiliar experience, the imagination fights it as it doesn't understand and might not define the knowledge by looking at other experiences. The mind desires to understand to link to a past experience and also to commit that experience to memory. Now we have a big problem. Fresh student feels exceptional after the class but when attempting to relate their experience to others, witness it difficult to name it into words what that experience was, because essentially it was obviously an experience or perhaps a felt not deciphered by the mind.Your practice should refresh you; not burden you on more things to remember. True understanding in Taiji quan brings a deep wholeness for your essential being. Not another memory linked with the intellect. There will be no need to retain it - you will carry it...While you practise let thoughts come and make them pass through. Become the watcher. Be indifferent into the thoughts.
If you listen or read word of wisdom, don't make an effort to remember them or the meaning will probably be lost. Let them wash over you, cleaning your mind, emptying it. Don t let thoughts put together your mind as a strong wind ruffling the surface of water causing confusion and doubt, be still like a calm lake. The aim of meditation would be to throw out the mind. Tai chi chuan empties the mind. Don't burden yourself with more words or thought processes.See from a deep inner self, let that wisdom check out chose to change and empower your essential self, the important inner you. Forget of the moment your outer self, your conscious self or a born within your upbringing, your surroundings and moulded by others' expectation of your body and what it is best to become.Taiji because of the chance can change yourself, in case you ignore it. This is true, I do know over a shadow of doubt since i am living clue of that.Being of service to others by passing in the teaching I d been so privileged to obtain from my Master and spiritual mentor. We're living a life of happiness and satisfaction beyond my desires. We have found my home Dao.Perhaps I had been lucky however i really believe I actually had the sense to view Master while i met him and intuitively felt that this was what I should be doing. I didn't discover why, it just felt right but i didn't deny that, or subdue it with logic. I followed my heart despite the fact that the good and the bad times and allowed my inner self to flower.
