      Author’s Preface

      When martial artists train their bodies, although there are not that many techniques, the principles behind them are inexhaustible. Those who train martial arts must refine their essence to transform their energy/power, in order for this energy to transform their spirit. They view mastery as the ability to use this internal energy and hold as a goal its constant flow without impediment, so seek out techniques that enable their acquired qi to supplement their original qi. The storage of the original qi is of primary importance, and enables the kidney fluid (jing) to be sufficient. To train this, breathe the pure air in through the nose and take it straight to the belly. From the belly it absorbs into the tailbone then turns in the midriff to store in the kidneys, which are in the body core. Then it goes up the Governing Vessel to the brain and returns through the nasal passage to connect by the tongue, which draws the kidney qi so that it descends. When it descends to the abdomen it solidifies and enters the cinnabar field [dantian]. This is the requirement for a complete cycle.

      All martial arts regard internal energy as the root and outer power as proficiency. To train to be accomplished you must train every day over a long period without a break so that your qi becomes full. The ancients said, When heaven (the head) becomes clear and the earth (body) becomes serene, then man has one spirit. Those who train for a long time gain the ingenious spirit of heaven and earth – they are naturally agile, they are completely centered and this shows in their form. They can extend and contract agilely, use a perfect balance of hard and soft, enter and withdraw as
