Go back to the beginning and read it again. This time, don’t chase mudballs.

Thanks for the compliment, though I am hardly a poet.
I take it you are not a Chan practitioner?
[QUOTE=Errant108;841236]Ch’an focuses on the Dharma which is passed directly from teacher to student through means other than sutra study, but rather by attaining the Buddhamind. Chan teachers can trace their lineage directly back to Bodhidharma, and aprocyphally, Shakyamuni himself.
Absolutely nothing. Kigong is to ensure that your body remains healthy, to enable you to practice Chan. The above quote from Bodhidharma would advise you not to put too much emphasis on such things. They are just exercises. Use them to serve your Chan practice. Do not make false idols of them.[/QUOTE]
Thank you so much for the reply! BUT, doesn’t transmission have to do with chi? And isn’t chi kung about chi cultivation? Health for practice, yes, maybe breaking bricks is for show, yes, but abolutely nothing?
