Profound - In Depth - Taijiquan Theory.
In the last seven centuries, many songs and poems have been composed about Taijiquan. These have played a major role in preserving the knowledge and wisdom of the masters, although in many cases, the identity of the authors and the dates of origin have been lost.
As lifelong pursuit, Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming has translated many of these documents and according to him, believes many are incomplete for reasons relating to: forgotten oral secrets, the original authors personal understanding being too narrowly focused, and many documents that have gone missing could help unify Taijiquan theory.
In response, his book Taijiquan Theory of Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming is an attempt to join the various theories on Taijiquan in one complete text.
What is Taijiquan? It is a martial Qigong study. Its training procedures are not different from those of other general Qigong (practice) and must follow the (same training) theory. These training procedures are nothing else but: regulating the body, regulating the breathing, regulating the mind, regulating the Qì, and regulating the spirit—five regulatings.
Taijiquan was created in Daoist monasteries and is a Qigong practice for enlightenment cultivation. The only difference is that this Qigong practice can also be applied in martial arts. Since Taijiquan is a Qigong, its training procedures and principles are no different from those of general Qigong practice. These training procedures and principles are: learning to regulate the body (Tiaoshen), breathing (Tiaoxi), mind (Tiaoxin), Qì (Tiaoqì), and finally spirit (Tiaoshen).
This book is structured with treaties, songs, and poems, followed by the original Chinese text and interpretations of the passages.
Contents include:
Regulating the body, breath, mind, Qi & spirit
Analysis of Jin, pushing hands and sparring
Taijiquan’s long range and short range fighting strategies
The relationship of Jin and Qi
The unification of the internal Qi and external physical manifestations of Qi
"Based upon my personal background and understanding, I have tried my best to compile the Taijiquan Theory and practice concepts in this book. I have attempted to make this effort as complete as possible”. - Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming
