Why are you participating in an online forum dedicated to them?
So, please, tell me, why do you devote your time and energy to the study and practice of your art?

To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women!
Damn you Azura.
Dr Paul Lam wrote:The Final Stage of Tai Chi Training For Martial Art
Now we move to the ultimate purpose of martial art: total control of your opponent. This could mean severely injuring him or her. While tai chi is based on the philosophy of yin-yang harmony and balance of nature, it was, after all, designed to be an effective martial art. Most tai chi movements show martial intention and have the potential to hurt someone. For example Golden Guard Stamping Foot aims at hitting the chin, top of the head and punching the abdomen with internal force. Such thoughts send shivers down my spine. I, as well as most of my tai chi friends when we practice, certainly don’t want to think about hurting anyone. Naturally, there are different levels of control. Ideally a high-level tai chi practitioner can control his opponent without hurting him.

If anyone here actually believes that, I own a gorgeous seaside property in Oklahoma which I would gladly sell to you for the right price. Lol
