How To Have Internal Power Through Six Simple Steps!

How To Have Internal Power Through Six Simple Steps!

By:


Well, it was quite famous, a couple millennium ago, when immortals walked the earth and chi power was common. Of course, things aren't so fantastic in these modern times. Of course, if one understood that one could have the intrinsic power of chi in six easy steps, then things might go back to the way they were.

The first step in this sequence isn't a step at all, it is a lack of knowledge. This is when a person doesn't use his hips at all in a technique. Oddly, one can see the lack of knowledge because the student has a bad case of butt wiggle when he lunges forward and does a front punch.

When I found classical karate I found out how to slam the hips into a strike. We would pivot front stances, slamming the hips, at the beginning of every class. This put the weight of the body into the move, and created all sorts of power.

The third step came when I realized that I could just move the hips into the technique without the slam. This was a subtle motion, sometimes just an in and out of alignment motion, but it worked, was efficient, and was my first step into what we call internal power. This motion, developed in classical karate such as shotokan, is often called hip vibration.

The fourth step was when I realized that you could roll the whole body like a pipe half filled with sand. The object was to make all the sand on the inside of the pipe collide with the inside of the pipe at the same moment one struck an opponent. I was heavily involved in the development of internal power now, and one can see this type of movement in properly done forms such as Sanchin.

The fifth step I realized when I had done Tai Chi for a number of years. Instead of slamming the hips, or rolling the arm or body like a pipe, I simply moved the body or body part in a subtle motion so that the tan tien was like a cup of tea, and the chi was sloshing on the inside of the cup. This caused energy to swell up inside the body cavity, and this energy could be used.

The energy of the fifth step can be used when one learns to Let Go of themselves. People always hold back a little obviously not wanting to hurt somebody, but, unobviously, withholding their internal power. The sixth step is to learn to relax enough that you don't hold back, and then the energy you have cultivated by the previous methods becomes real and usable.

In conclusion, the path seems long, but once you understand the pieces, it is short. The problem is that arts don't present all the pieces, and one must study a variety of arts to get everything, and this sometimes leads to seeming contradictions. Still, it is possible to learn how to develop and use internal power quickly and easily if one can find the right technology.
