Internal Power Classic - Breathing and Fa Jin

[lineofintent]

This is episode 33 of the Zen Mind Martial Power audio series, one of many in the series presenting new translations and detailed commentaries on the Nei Gong Si Jing (Four Classics of Internal Power), and many other tales and teachings of the internal fighting masters.

I can't really summarize the range and depth of material that Alex covers in this audio series that is both a spiritual and martial arts biography, and a distillation of his years of searching and diligent training in the internal arts. "Zen Mind Martial Power" offers clear, practical training protocols; deeply insightful anecdotes; rare translation and references to a wide variety of masters in the arts Alex has studied; and a nicely refined and subtle sense of humor at just the right moments to leaven the seriousness of the pursuit. I've been through the whole series twice, listening on long drives, on practice breaks in the park, walking up forested trails through mountain mists, and in pubs while intensively studying the brief lives of bubbles in my beer. The time spent in listening to, thinking about and practicing from the material in this collection will be well worth your while.

Thanks Alex (and Tom, for the recommendation) - I'll have a listen

Thanks for that review Tom, as I read it I pictured you in full Yamabushi garb, walking a misty mountain trail, whilst headphones delivered the arcane secrets of ...well, everything. And that made me smile.

Thanks Finny and everyone else who has supported my work.
