Universal Tao Newsletter July 2007
The Universal Tao System offers many types of practices, many of which can be practiced individually. However, it is most beneficial to the practitioner to realize that all are interrelated and practicing them all will bring the best results.
If one attempts to practice Tai Chi Chi Kung, for example, before having first cultivated internal energy through Iron Shirt, it might be compared to entering high school without having learned the alphabet.
Iron Shirt is the foundation of Tai Chi which uses structural alignment as a basis for exercise. To practice Tai Chi Chi Kung properly, it is necessary that your meditation practice takes you at least to the levels of the Fusion of the Five Elements or to Lesser Enlightenment of Kan & Li.
Since the basic approaches of the Microcosmic Orbit, Iron Shirt Chi Kung, Seminal or Ovaran Kung Fu, and Tai Chi Chi Kung deal with some aspect of coaxing energy out of the deepest and outermost reaches of the body, it is wise for the practitioner who is interested in developing fully his/her physical, emotional and spiritual potential to consider the Universal Tao System in its entirety.

The main focus of this retreat will be on the practice of a Tai-chi shortform in 24 movements. With this form, the Taoists emphasize the inner movement of chi. As the Tao is associated with an easy-flowing stream, the Taoist way of Tai-chi encourages you to feel the flow and flow with the feeling. In Taoism, unmediated feeling is knowing. Tai-chi allows you to cultivate the immediacy of feeling, wuchin, and so to harmonize the body-mind with the flow of the life-force. read more... contact: info@tao-garden.com |
