This is how T’ai Chi works in the secret martial arts area and indeed
why it is called, ‘the supreme ultimate.
Every move you make in your T’ai Chi form is indicative of a very
dangerous dim-mak point strike. No matter how insignificant the
move, it means something! That is why the movements are there and
in the correct direction. We do not have to know the correct direction
or pressure because they are all there in our T’ai Chi forms, provided
of course that these forms have been learnt correctly and from a
competent teacher. For instance, the posture known as ‘Step Back
And Repulse Monkey’must be performed by the attacking palm in a
definite downward strike while the other palm comes slightly across
the body and down to the hip. This indicates that the palm on the hip
has attacked to important heart and lung points on the forearm while
the other attacking palm has attacked to a point called CV 17. This
ensures that the direction of the strike is going against the flow of energy
or Qi. Sometimes we just move one palm half an inch but this
too has a reason. This is to attack the flow of energy to other parts of
the body so that certain limbs will become weakened to a more devastating
kick or punch.
