Putting this together with my own knowledge of
acupuncture and that of many of the world’s leading authorities, I
have put together what I believe to be the original points from Chang
San-feng.
BASIC APPLICATIONS AND, SECRET APPLICATIONS.
Most people know about many of the basic applications from the
T’ai Chi forms. For instance many know that the postures from
‘double p’eng’ through to ‘pull back’ are to block an on-coming attack,
lock the wrist and pull the opponent downward. However,
there is a much more sinister application for this and all of the other
postures. For instance, when we go into ‘double p’eng’, we arc actually
striking to a dim-mak point in the neck called ‘stomach 9’. This
in itself is a death point and works medically by severely lowering
the blood pressure of the body by restricting heart activity through
the carotid sinus. When struck with the right amount of force and
more importantly, in the correct direction, we have heart stoppage.
Now, combine this with the next part of that posture, when we roll
the palms over and we continue. The left finger further attack to S.9
while the palm of the right hand attacks to a point known as ‘gall
bladder 14’. The gall bladder, when it is struck, or any of the major
G.B. points, medically also causes knock out to occur by causing the
heart to stop. Now, as the person is falling down we further attack to
a G.B. point on the side of the rib cage called G.B. 24!
