[KoHsuan]

just curious maybe somebody has experienced the same? I have been doing k1 for last 7 months nearly every day... last month or two i have developed strange feeling in knee cap area..

they are constantly burning .. no pain, no discomfort ... like temperature in the area 5 degree higher than the rest of the body...

From what I've gleened from the fellow members of the forum is that one of the first Kunlun practices is to rock forward and up (like standing tip toe) onto K1? If I am wrong please correct me...

 

For kicks and giggles do a tigers hand (contract fingers and thumb keeping the base of the fingers and palm open), while "holding" a posture on K1... inhale contract-exhale relax-align. Hands and feet at the same time?

 

What I'm getting at is to balance how high you go w/ deepening stance work. What goes up must come down. Stillness is one way to neutralize and ground, but when obvious (especially localized) physical sensations happen it's best to align the body energetically with foundational work. In case no-one has told you never 'hold' a stance w/ your knee going beyond the tip of your big toe.

 

Begin to feel the bottom of your feet and what the differences are between rocking forward and up, and sinking backwards and down.

This may inspire some answers through perspiration. Real answers are a process of inner discovery, it is difficult to read so many personal opinions/experiences and arrive at truth. It's like describing in words how to punch. There are many ways to make contact and release, but only one connection from center to edge.

 

Face to face is the Way.
