Many years ago when I was fighting with my sensei in his backyard we were in the middle of throwing blows, he then put his arm up in the sky like a lightning rod and when I came at him I heard a crack sound and the bottom of his foot was touching my nose. I never saw it move and could not react, only to say stop wait a minute where did that come from? he said I dont know but I dont think I could do it again.
He later explained to me that when you are in your peak and you open up you allow the energy from past masters to pass through you like conducting electricity! I looked at him like yea right for I was young and naive and had no idea what he was talking about.
15 years later I am practicing tai chi and this feeling comes over me that made me hot , dizzy and lightheaded. I could not figure out what it was but when I looked at my shrfu she smlied and said you feel? I said what feel, she said moon and stars chi come touch… I have never felt that since but I am trying, and when I said that I was trying to my shrfu, she said that if I try I never feel again. She says no try it come again, try to own you never feel…
obviously very chinese and you know its rude to ask what they are talking about becuse they just answer keep practicing
