Product Information
The outer practice of T'ai Chi movements has become popular in the West, but the inner techniques are rarely taught. According to Master Liao, without knowing the inner meaning the great power of these practices cannot be realized. This book presents three classic texts in which the inner meaning and practices of T'ai Chi is presented. The texts are accompanied by detailed commentary and three introductory chapters explaining the essence of T'ai Chi, how to increase inner energy, or Chi, how to transform this into inner power, and how this inner power can be projected out to perform amazing feats such as holding an opponent to the ground or forcing him to jump backwards without physically touching him. Master Liao explains the breathing techinques for concentrating Chi and storing inner power, and describes a variety of ways in which to subjugate an opponent using inner power without physical force. Finally Master Liao provides a description of the entire sequence of T'ai Chi meditative movement practice, with commentary on each form.Product Identifiers
