Hi Rozz,

 

My experiences are very similar to yours.

Yes, I agree. Should a person actually attain these skills, it would

probably be the type of person who would not see the reason to show

it. I see this skill being developed from softness and " nothingness "

(as Guigen suggests), and at this point the concept of " showing off "

would seem to be counter-intuitive. At least it would seem to be. :-)

Of course, there are those nasty paradoxes of Life.

I am slowly learning this. Guigen has also indicated that this is a

" high level " of practice.

Yes, I can say that I have experienced very similar situations.

 

Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences with me.
