Nungali

yes, it was 'sufficient enough' but also , not so tai chi ( depending on one's definition - is ducking under a wild swinging punch and going into a low front stance while you elbow someone in Solar Plexus with full body rotation Tai Chi ? If so, the 'effects' where a series of expanding concentric shock waves going trough the guys blubber, originating on the strike zone, a shocked look on his face , then I existed left off side to avod any vomit that might fountain out - none did - a general wobbling followed by a collapse on to his knees . ) . I suppose overall, the more tai chi like stuff was during melee and close quarters ( the other stuff I did wasnt really tai chi like ) where I was able to push and fling and throw mostly by staying low and adapting to what was coming at me ... melting out the way, turning etc . I domt have the tai chi terminology to describe what happened there . But the most effective of techniques where 'taking advantage of what is offered to you ' . Then I saw 3 rednecks wailing on this one guy, well, thats a bit unfair , so went to help him, pulling guys off (one by his neck tendons ) , which made more come in and try to jump me , it got more like aikido then . next thing I knew I am now back to back with this guy I helped. covering each other, then it sorta went to boxing , after we cleaned them up ( he was pretty good too ! ) I realised he was a Police rescue guy , white overalls with Police insignia ... I had been fighting alongside the police as the drunken rednecks attacked them, without me knowing it ! So they got arrested and I didnt . Ha har! In short , Tai chi techniques can be very effective , if you know when and how to use them properly in a fight situation , but one should not be restricted to one 'style', unless its a good one and has all sorts of different stuff under one name. I trained with a guy recently that did tai chi for years , he was absolutely hopeless in an application situation, I could push him over with one hand . I asked and he admitted he had never felt the 'pressure' of anything against his techniques but air . The I did all this stuff to him as he tried different attacks a lot of it I could show him where in some of the moves he actually did himself in practising his solo form . Another guy who is in my club is a tai chi instructor , he can well hold his own with me and the instructor , he knows the applications and knows how to fight ... I am respectfully wary of him So I dont feel it is actually the 'Tai Chi ' at question here , more the 'Tai Chi practitioner' .

So much of this is familiar with what I practice , but mine isnt known as Tai Chi . I'd love to analyse this more but dont want to derail further . Earl, could you move these to a new thread for discussion ? Cloud Hands , I have some experience in what you asked about , but cant really describe what I did as 'Tai Chi' . My situation was, I was on a forest protest and we got invaded by a bunch of redneck drunks from one direction and a bunch of loggers from the other . What stood out for me in this thread , in relation to that was what Earl Grey said ; "There's a certain point that all your skills become one and it's hard to see where one style ends and another begins. " and also your ;

Ooooo - I imagine all sorts of things play out in that basement !

Okay folks, its the fight you have been waiting for ; Nungali Vs (Iron Palm ) Starjumper We get underway at 2 10 .... Starjumper looks a lot older than we are used to, but that s probably because he advertises himself with a picture from years ago - we can see he has lost all his hair, but still retains the grey beard . Starjumoer starts with a series of attempts at Iron Palm strikes, which Nungali easily avoids . Then Nungali gives him a little pattycake in the mouth . Starjumper looks incredulous 'Where did THAT come from ! " ( @ 2:30 ... and yes, I suppose tooth did hurty { a little commentating humour there } ) Nungali is 'You okay Bro ? Wanna keep going or finish now ? " Starjumper wants to go on, but just stands there with his 'magic' palm out . Nungali advances and punches him in the head a few times and then kicks him , Starjumper seems to be unable to do anything about that and collapses outside the ring , goes down and covers up his head with his arms . ref awards to Nungers and he but then @ 3:10 Nungali realizes Starjumper cant get up ! he rushes in to help ; 'You guys, get the first aid kit ... you guys get a stretcher ... someone call an ambulance .... what the F I thought that guy said he could fight ! "

In your " underground basement " and you said I lied about you being Basement Boy ! " I will do this ... I will do that .... I will hold my breath ...... basement Boy worm , with no power ! You lie ! I have surpassing wisdom ! Just read this ; Nothing is impossible. Today, science tells us that the essence of nature is choice. This life is nothing short of a maturing vector of primordial wisdom. Humankind has nothing to lose. Although you may not realize it, you are archetypal. The dreamtime is calling to you via chaos-driven reactions. Can you hear it? If you have never experienced this network on a cosmic scale, it can be difficult to exist.

NEVER ! And there isnt a thing in the world ... or in your so called magical arsenal or your self imagined 'powers' that you can do about it ! Its clear to anyone who cares to look https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ We can no longer afford to live with dogma. The complexity of the present time seems to demand a deepening of our essences if we are going to survive. You may be ruled by bondage without realizing it. Where there is materialism, stardust cannot thrive. Without peace, one cannot dream. Yearning is the antithesis of rejuvenation. The totality is calling to you via ultrasonic energy. Can you hear it? Although you may not realize it, you are unrestricted. If you have never experienced this lightning bolt of the creative act, it can be difficult to dream. Throughout history, humans have been interacting with the galaxy via electromagnetic resonance. Humankind has nothing to lose. Our conversations with other seekers have led to a blossoming of pseudo-infinite consciousness. We are in the midst of an advanced awakening of spacetime that will clear a path toward the quantum matrix itself. https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

I see what you mean ... as time goes on ... I am kinda thinking of becoming a BSMaster disciple myself

Did you fight him with your doggy avatar ?

What actually happened was, you tried to embarrass me by saying I had no knowledge of physics and while trying to write that 'embarrassment ' ... it totally backfired on you ! PS This is how magic works on those that try to contend with ... The Nungali Master ! .

Fata Morgana is looking at you .... and disapproving .

because she is an American white girl ?

he isnt spot on as HE didnt write it . he lifted it from here ; https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ EG, Today, science tells us that the essence of nature is knowledge. You and I are dreamers of the infinite. By summoning, we dream. If you have never experienced this source through non-local interactions, it can be difficult to heal. Our conversations with other beings have led to a maturing of ultra-angelic consciousness. We are in the midst of a Vedic refining of faith that will align us with the quantum soup itself. Reality has always been full of lifeforms whose hearts are opened by inspiration. Who are we? Where on the great circuit will we be reborn? We are at a crossroads of potentiality and turbulence. Throughout history, humans have been interacting with the quantum cycle via bio-feedback. You may be ruled by illusion without realizing it. Do not let it sabotage the truth of your circuit. Stagnation is born in the gap where complexity has been excluded. Where there is desire, intuition cannot thrive. Imagine a condensing of what could be. We exist as bio-feedback. The goal of supercharged waveforms is to plant the seeds of aspiration rather than dogma. To wander the vision quest is to become one with it. https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ .... and so on .

I suppose it makes sense that BSMaster quotes from BS generator

So, what is the Seb Pierce ' New Age Bullshit Generator' for ? Well, according to Seb ; " So, what is this for? Put it on your website as placeholder text. Print it out as a speech for your yoga class and see if anyone can guess a computer wrote it. Use it to write the hottest new bestseller in the self-help section, or give false hope to depressed friends and family members. " https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

Now compare MY post that I wrote to clear things up with this ^ response by Starjumper to that post . The comparison says it all ! YET AGAIN , he does a better job of revealing his true nature than I ever could !

But it is not up to you to make the comparison , it is for anyone else that wants to see where you steal lame 'wisdom' from , since you have non of your own, except empty boasting about yourself If you had a brain, you would be able to read and understand how to get off that intro page - You need to 're ionize electrons ' . If you really didnt copy from there it just means you copied of someone else that copied from there ... which is twice as bad ! BSMaster exposed ! Child, look within and beckon yourself. It can be difficult to know where to begin. How should you navigate this higher totality https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

You are a troll Sean, can you ban BSMaster .

The quantum matrix is approaching a tipping point. We must learn how to lead heroic lives in the face of desire. The future will be an angelic refining of transcendence. You and I are travellers of the multiverse. To navigate the journey is to become one with it. This life is nothing short of a refining quantum leap of eternal flow. https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

And you calling me a liar GSMaster will not stop people from going to https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ and discovering the truth , by simple comparison . .

Its well clear now that what you are trying to pass of as your wisdom (and isnt it interesting that several people challenged you on NOT posting any wisdom , just hollow chest thumping ... that 'all of a sudden' you have decided to make posts of your 'wisdom' Which is clearly nothing but copy and paste , including the pictures from https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ But dont believe me people , go to the site yourself and see the offerings there , now compare it to the OP in this thread .

... science again tsk tsk ...
