How are your thoughts formed. Know Yourself , to know Others If you can understand yourself, you will be able to understand others better. If you know how you think or how your thoughts come about, you can have a better knowledge of why the others think that way. As a martial artist, don't you think it is important to know what your opponent is thinking? Let's "trace" the thought process.

This may be necessary for our survival, but at the same time "program" our auto response mode, instinctively. We are automatically attached to certain assumptions, presuming certain outcome and therefore react base on that, bypassing "reality" of that moment, caused by our "untrained" limited consciousness. That is, the "Present Mind" is overshadowed by the "Past Mind". &qu

Dialogue between Samurai and Zen Master From the 35 Posts, these basically should be able to lay the foundation and understanding of the requirement and preparation of Kung Fu training. Let's wrap up this series with a "Dialogue between Samurai and Zen Master". Samurai: Master, how does "awareness" affect the realm of a martial artist? Zen Master: First "aware" your body (movements). When you are practicing, keep watching, be alert, and be aware the generation and change pf power of each movement. Zen Master: Next, it is the awareness of mind, awareness of thoughts, imagination, mind projection, and other brain activities, feeling the fluctuation of power generated by the mind, and you will be surprised by the existence of the "exhalation power" from the mind.
