  • All those in the West who denies the existence of Chi and calling the Chinese to be "stupid" for believing in Chi needs to seriously investigate into their claims.

  • @tantienbreather I can't figure out what you are referring to because I haven't commented for 3 months. If you are referring to what I said 3 months ago, I didn't learn that in a class but through personal experience. It is also what is taught in the Indian Philosophy of Advaita Vedanta. I like your comments by the way, I find them helpful.

  • @almagore1 You're late for your philosophy class! LOL

  • RIP Robert Smith

  • Mr. Smith<3 My dad and I love and miss you RIP<3

  • Unfortunately, Bob Smith passed away two days ago. This segment is from our film, MARTIAL ARTS: THE REAL STORY, which was produced for the The Learning Channel in 2002. More information available on our web site, Pacific Street Films...

  • @smr144 - when you are engaged in a fight, what does it matter if it's a punch, kick, elbow, knee, joint lock, throw, or yes- EVEN A PUSH!! A technique is just that, a technique....... there's an old saying in our school: "sometimes you just have to hit people". Simply meaning apply what you need to save yourself or a loved one. Techniques are just a means to an end- push or not!!!

  • #1: @smr144 - First, Thank You for the Bare Knucklehead handle!! :-) Next, I was referring to the Push-Hands EXERCISE, not simply a physical push. I agree that in the footage the first push looks simply like a straight push relying solely on muscle, but as the clip fades that launch is anything but a physical push. I don't think he had that much muscle by the time he was that age. As for Yang Lu-Chang, you tell me, why would he spend so much time doing it if it was worthless??

  • @ContinuosChange Dear Bare Knucklehead, Then, what is the end of physically shoveling another man? Since when is that an application of an internal principle(s)??

  • @smr144 - you missed it knucklehead; it's an EXERCISE - a means to an end, NOT A FIGHTING TECHNIQUE!!!!

  • @almagore1 - aghhhhh, OK........
