dawei Posted June 21, 2011 Hehehe. I guess I am one of few who use the word "Tzujan" instead of "Ziran". The only difference between the two words that I can see is that Tzujan is normally used in a universal sense whereas Ziran is used mostly in an individual sense. Perhaps there is a more distinctive difference but I am not aware of it. Tzujuan is Wades-Gile notation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wade-Giles Ziran is Chinese notation called Pinyin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinyin They are exactly the same meaning just the former is outdated now.

Harmonious Emptiness Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Actually I agree very much with this. For this reason I have devoted several years correlating measurements of Phi with the traditional Yang family Taijichuan. The revelations have been quite astounding and have correspondingly improved both my form and my capacity to teach my students. I think you wrote something about this once before. Is there a topic with more info on it? Also, what is the measurement of phi? .. something to do with chaos theory?
