I really wanna join..

[@helmutlang8528]

Just finished the 6 month course with Wang, paid 700 Euros. On the positive side, he is a master who knows his craft. On the negative side, he repeated his knowledge every week: "sink your weight, align your body, open your fascia, send your energy, bypass the contact point, and MAGIC will happen" I have no doubt this is the true knowledge, but there is no more details. Yes he repeated this every class but there is no details: how to sink your weight? how to align your body? how to open your fascia? etc.. If you know what I have written here, you have saved your 700 Euros (I think he upped the price to 800 now). If you don't know what I am talking about, you will learn nothing more from his classes.

We are incredibly fortunate to have access to the high-level teachings of Master Howard and the traditional internal arts freely presented to the public in this manner. The positive impact (butterfly effect) these videos will have on the martial arts community in the future will be tremendous. Keep up the excellent work martial man.

Next level energy assimilation, I guess you could call it. I could pick up the vibe from this guy in those 20 minutes, no problem. Very helpful.

Pure Nectar. thank you.

[@kwaishiu6460]

Thank you for your clear and exact rendition of the tai chi principles which many of us are confused with it's hidden meaning and by those who they think they know it but not really know it

[@natmodugno2343]

This guy is Amazing...

I learned this same teachings in Gnosis. Amazing when all things intersect into one truth. Blessings everyone on your journey.

The commentary on Lao Tzu's Chapter 42 is thrilling and eye-opening. Thank you for sharing beyond dogma and calcification. 🙏

[@meditationamsterdam]

This is a well known principle, jing, chi and shen all refined is the essence of the art. A beautiful process and he's very clear about it.

[@ilyaolshanetskiy7421]

Thank you so much for publishing these videos. Master Huai Hsiang Wang is an amazing person with immense knowledge who is willing and knows how to share it with whoever has the right intention. I sincerely wish him to publish the book!

[@romedbucher2854]

I like that guy! And I never cease to be amazed how many words people will use trying to explain things they have agreed cannot be explained with words ;-) But what he says makes much sense and I learnt a lot just by listening to one interview.

[@montelile850]

Ah Master I was wondering where the master was. 🙏

[@adrianbrice]

YES. Thank you so much!

[@Dan53196]

This guy is fantastic 🙏

[@mathieud.9391]

Very interesting! Thanks!

[@Sulayman.786]

SubhanAllah! So rooting is sensing and/or using the primal energy before the ego mind captures it (to think ego-based thoughts). Makes perfect sense, especially when you think about how the mind has evolved to make use and translate that prime energy. Humans are unique from the unthinking specifically because we can harness Prana and convert it into mental processes, but that process itself is what reduces or limits our ability to utilize that same prana on a physical level (as opposed to the mental level of the ego mind). One cannot create or destroy energy, only convert it into different forms.

[@Sulayman.786]

Does this mean that the subconscious mind can be in harmony with the physical use of prana? So, in other words, can we do Qi Gong and think subconsciously at the same time?

[@Sulayman.786]

Makes me realize that the ego mind can dominate the body's ability to access Prana: when we watch a movie our bodies slump and we lose track or perception of our physical surroundings.

[@bajuszpal172]

Yes, Rooting is alignement of Heaven-Man-Earth axis and letting things happen. Is it true that internal peace is the source to internal energy? Many thanks, Gentlemen, and all the best. Paul,67

[@gongfutaijimy]

He seems more interested in the internal alchemy aspect that the martial aspect. Which is fine and dandy and all, but probably irrelevant for most people.

[@romedbucher2854]

I dare say the martial aspect is certainly irrelevant for most people 😀 and fail to see how the internal aspects could be irrelevant for anybody. But of course, we never stop learning. Perhaps I have missed out on some deeper wisdom about the relevance of martial arts for most people...

[@VictorMartinsPT]

😮 wow 😮

[@Sulayman.786]

SubhanAllah! Yes, ether theory has charged and not charged, but modern physics calls it positive and negative (which is an incorrect description according to the scientists who believe in ether). Some say this misunderstanding is the reason for the lack of scientific progression or discovery over the last 100 years.

[@Sulayman.786]

SubhanAllah! Rooting is alignment with the energy of the earth? Let's find out.. inshaAllah..

[@Jenjak]

The purpose of internal martial arts is not fighting. They only evolved from it. And there are real perks to those practices (like self development, understanding your body and mind relationship, sensitivity, beauty, harmonious social behaviors etc..) I have nothing against non fighting martial arts, except if someone claims stuff that they are not really able to do, or teach "fighting applications" when they have clearly no fighting experience so far. (FYI: I'm not pointing at anyone here, make your own assumptions) Experience should come first, then people are free to practice whatever they enjoy as long as they don't manipulate or hurt anyone or claim stuff that aren't true.

[@Gieszkanne]

That is not true!

[@Jenjak]

@@Gieszkanne You're free to disagree.

[@Gieszkanne]

@@Jenjak That is not about any opinion its just wrong. You can tell it by facts. XingYi was teached to the military. Also Yang Luchan teached the imperial guards and disciples of Dong Hai Chuan (Bagua) Fu Zhensong teached guards and was a General himself and many other internal masters where famous for their fighting/combat skills.

[@Jenjak]

@@Gieszkanne Moint point is experience comes first. If you have no fighting experience, practicing internal ma won't make you fighter. I'm sure they used to do physical training and spar a lot, they surely didn't just do forms and meditation.

[@ilyaolshanetskiy7421]

"The purpose of internal martial arts is not fighting." - who says it is?? Physical "Fighting" is just one of many potential applications here and clearly not the goal. It seems that you talk about sports fighting which reflects only limited abilitites and performance bound by various rules etc. Social rules and norms have been differrent in different parts of the world through history so it is a bit naive to compare Chinese traditional martial arts to modern day MMA and claim that TMA are not valid/inferior to MMA. At the end it is an individual decision what to look/strive for in life and then find means and methods to achieve your goals.

[@Gieszkanne]

I disagree with him that this Kung Fu /energy work/ internal skill necessarily makes you spiritual or a better person. For example Yang Chenfu and his uncle Banhou had a reputation of beeing cruel and brutal. Both only make it into their 50ies but both had a very high internal skill. Also posture training was no invention of Wang XiangZhai. It was already part of his training in Xing Yi how it was teached by Guo Yunshen.And it was practized in the Yang family Taiji.

[@ytb460]

It goes back further than that I think.

[@frbud]

Thanks for clear explanation, but i cannot capture mr Wang explanation about earth, could you please ask him? And how to make heaven man and earth become one. Please kindly eloborate this question in separate section?

[@THEMARTIALMAN]

"The heaven element in you is your mental energy. The earth element is of your physical body. The man is the ego. So traditionally, in ancient Chinese, there is body energy, there is mental energy. They are exactly the same pronunciation but different in character. They all pronounce chi but in character they are different. So the body energy is composed of two parts. It is called rice energy, food energy. And the mental energy is composed of two parts, so literally means no flame. Your ego-mind is the mental energy on flame. Once you de-flame your ego-mind energy, you are just pure mental energy." - Howard Wang.

[@frbud]

He totally skipped from heaven to man to rooting... oops! He forgot earth... (9:06 in: "Heaven, earth & oneness: rooting") in short, he didn't answer the question, at least not then. Still, an interesting few minutes.

we hear this argument all the time and its soooo fucking boring already, go find him yourself and see how you get on dipshit.

The Master say Kung Fu is not fichting , you must listen what he told ,why fighting ? And who are you for judge the Master? i suggest go to a seminar with Master Howard Wang. He is a very kind and really Master.

if you need a professional fighter to beat this old man, it means that MMA are really a little thing..

So to understand rooting I must understand a whole lot of Chinese philosophy, new age theory, recite Laozi and know about astral animation? ... ??? ... This was the absolute worst and most confused explanation of "rooting" I've ever heard. :/
