I really appreciated reading folks' thoughts about the meaning of this phrase...so much so that I'd like to pose a general question regarding the relationship of the principles of tai4 ji2 to the practice of Chinese medicine. How do people look at this? Does such a relationship exist? How can it be defined? described? taught? studied? These are not idle questions on my part as I'm now completing the first draft of a manuscript for a book about the relationship of tai4 ji2 and tui1 na2. Thanks, Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We invest in loss of ego, loss of the one who has something at risk? Is this the gateway to Wu Wei? Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
