Hendrik You have understood because you already know…you know because you have experience it. what is experience stuff. it is nature. even in nature we have rock water and wind. Rock is strong an can break bones. But water can wear away rock and carry heavy rocks far away. Wind can also erode rocks and wear it away. But wind can also carry water far away even into the heavens. Wind can carry water across nations an rain down upon them in thunder and lighting and hurricans and toranados. Wind can carry rocks and water with in an use it as powerful force that can destroy even steel. So my friend be Wind. But also take note to harness the power of water flow like a river. But also take note of hardness of rocks. An add to wind water and stone. An become a cyclone force that can crush, smash, drown and uplift the greatest force.
You are right even if Jennifer says those not on that level no comprende. You must open your mind with out trying. relax with out relaxing, let your mind flow freely with out controlling or guiding ones thoughts. Now adapt this one chi sau. allow the feeling to be like wind. go where ever the wind carries you. the force you feel is the wind. It carries you across the air like a speck of dust floating through the air. It lands when there is no force an floats away when force is propelled towards it. Be like a speck of dust hendrik when thou embarks on Sil Lim Tao. Practice form as if you are fighting and fight as if you are doing a form.
This rambling what is this stuff. what is Zen. Let your will go and become nothing become with out desire or will. Become like a speck an allow your will and desire to flow with energy that is unleashed on you. Deep with in search for an empty space. For the empty space is where action is. Then occupy the empty space an strike deep with in the conceptual meridan. Strike with out striking but use your opponents force. Let him strike himself with your fist. What is lightness what is it root. But Gravity. Gravity also effects a strong foundation that cyclones force to the earth. The weak overcomes the strong, The moving overcomes the still, the light in movement overcomes the heavy in steps.
When you attack be forceful like a Roaring Typhon. Like a Sunami. Strike hard like a Rushing a River and Hurricane. Strike continously like water rushing all around and wind filling up space. When your opponent attacks be like a speck of dust. Understand the dust. For it is smaller than you. It is weaker than you. It can not inflict pain upon you because its not like wind or water but because it is lighter than wind you can not hurt it. Punch a speck of dust. Try to slice it in half with a broadsword. You can not punch the dust an hurt it. your kicks can not hurt the dust. No matter how much chi you have you can not kill the dust. You can not break or cut the dust with your knife or kali stick. The dust can endure any attack. when you strike it is not there it dissipaites your force. It neutralizes your energy. Like White Lotus it floats away. So Offense is like Water and Wind. Defense is like a speck of dust! You can not hurt the dust. If you become a speck of dust no one can hurt you!
Learn to be these three with out trying. second nature. Do with out doing. Think with out thinking. Then you will be unbeatable.
Make your Way simple. For that which is easily understood is superior to complicated. Two fight. One with complex art the other with a simple art. The complex art has many avenues that it must take before reaching its destination where as the simple fighter has few options thus he strikes down the center an ends conflicts quickly. The simple defeats the complex. The simple is faster and complex takes longer…What is this stuff? Use softness to over come hardess. Use speed to overcome strenght. The small defeats the big. the weaker defeats the stronger. The Simple strike internally. While the complex must take an external route. The simple is linear while the complex is a series of ellipitcal spirals that take many paths before reaching its goal. Strive to be wind my friend! Also be like Water!
[QUOTE=Hendrik;935294]I speak Zen because I am a Zen follower.
You see, if one can do it, then one dont need to ask me.
If one cant do it or not at the level; no matter what or who says, it simply doesnt matter.
this is because even if Miss Wing Chun shows it in front of one eyes, one will not recognized it.
and so does your description above describe Jennifer in the following clip?
