how many hours practice meditation on the deng feng gong fu schools?

[GeneChing]

...some a lot, some none at all. There are 80 registered schools in Dengfeng, and who knows how many unregistered. Each one is different.

You'd have to go to each school and ask about their curriculam. One of the big problems about students who are interested in studying Chan in China is language. You can study Kung Fu and not know Chinese, but meditation is a little more difficult. To be honest, I don't know the curriculam for the individual schools, but most would probably offer some sort of meditation program at your request - translation is the bigger problem. In fact, I don't even know what happens at my own master's school. Whenever I study with Shi Decheng, I get private lessons. He has taught me meditation techniques, so for me, it's been a big part of his teachings, but I don't know how he treats general students.

thnks,but i live in spain.there is any chance to read it?

[GeneChing]

...but I have no idea where. Besides the issue is long off the newsstand. You can order through www.MartialArtsMart.com, but I'll be honest and tell you that shipping is expensive, especially for on magazine. It would be cheaper to have a friend buy it for you in the states, then ship it to you themselves.
