What is sinking Qi to the Dantian?

What is Sinking Qi to the Dantian?

Watch a Baby breath and you might understand

No positives, no negatives

May be only Yin and Yang

May be just not

All that happens upstairs

Is a passing cloud of different shapes

Or a color seen when little oil happens on water

Sometimes very serious as a raging storm

Or calm as a seed making its way into a shoot

This will pass and another take its place

Meanwhile as one ponders

As to what is – sinking ones' Qi to the Dantian

Watch a Baby breath and you might understand

On expression

Any human expression is an act of being constantly reminded that one 'is'.

On Knowledge

Knowledge is light, wisdom is being a light onto oneself

Meditation

Humility is being rooted, being rooted is humility

Meditation

To prevail in a fight you must know the adversary. Every thing. Whats he good at, bad at. But then the paradox is that if one knows so much then one begins to empathize and then it ends- The reason to fight. One prevails ignorance and with it violence.

To Muhammed Ali

Oh! Poet of Brawls
Your count has ended
1, 2, ...and 10
You are a poet no more
A fighter no more
There is no sting
and there is no flight
no more
Your count has ended
1,2 ...and 10
No more spunk
no more attitude
no more trash talk
That may be
but something else
will always be
That the counts will not take away
Your count may have ended
1,2 ... and 10
But you are
Immortal if anything that can be
That's what you are
Your count may have ended
1,2 ...and 10
You are a Champion
Stand over death and let the count go
1,2 ...and 10

Yang Chengfu on valuing Taiji

One must distinguish the pure from the motley. Many practice taiji nowadays but it is not the real taiji. The real has a different taste, and is easily distinguished. With real taiji, your arm is like iron wrapped with cotton. It is soft and yet feels heavy to someone trying to support it. You can feel this in push-hands practice. When you touch an opponent, your hands are soft and light but he cannot get rid of them. When you attack, it is like a bullet penetrating cleanly and sharply (gan cui), yet without using any force. When he is pushed ten feet away, he feels a little movement, but no strength and no pain. In touching him, you don't grab him. Instead you lightly adhere to him so that he can't escape. Soon his two arms become so sore he can't stand it. This is real taiji. If you use force, you may move him. But it will not be clean and sharp. If he tries to use force to hold or control you, it is like trying to catch the wind or shadows. Everywhere is EMPTY. It can be likened to walking on gourds on the water. You cannot get to where the substantial is. Put simply, the real taiji is marvelous.
