Re: [taichi_phil] Ilocos Norte is a nice place for Tai Chi practitioners

There is a saying that a devote Tai-Chi practioner and energy cultivator is always "AT HOME" wherever they go because the whole universe is theirs and in them. Thus serenity and joy is always at hand whenever they practice, and these become second nature to the person.
I believe this. It is the same thing when you totally give up to GOD. Let go let GOD. In Tai-Chi, always yield, remain calm and relax but focus. Never aggressive, living at the moment and resolve whatever comes with wisdom, not with violence.
My simple opinion on Tai-Chi practice.

Now this is something different - to experience "chi" from a certain locale.  From what I know,  tai chi is experienced from within one's self (thru mind and body) irregardless of where one practices.  Perhaps further explanation will help broaden my understanding?  Thanks!

Try coming to Ilocos Norte at least once a year to experience the Chi!
At Paoay Lake, Pagudpud beach, at the windmills, at the sand dunes and
even to our mountainous areas such as Dingras and Solsona area. Just
contact me if you wanted to come in our place. Mabuhay Pilipinas!

A clever combatant does good in generating the force in a good terrain. When a Qi is generated and is continuously flowing within the range of concentration,...

I agree with the statements made below by kaze_jin14. One uses their own internal Qi to create Jing when in combat. But for the sake of practicing, and the...

Qi is a potential energy. Unless there is no motion applied, it is not circulated. It is likened to a power producing windmill. The electricity is potential....
