While I was wishing for a thread to exist on Kung Fu, Qi Gong, Falungong, Tai Chi and every other analogy of the same concept; surprise caught me with respect to the title of the thread ^^.
I've studied martial arts and for the latter 6 years or so only Kung Fu. This has always been a deep passion of mine and I study/train even when I have breaks from monitored training.
As per somewhat usual I've fallen outside the systematic hierarchy for my specific club which I believe is, at some level, negative for the development of Kung Fu or what understanding this form of training brings.
This aside I've always wanted someone to ask some of our metaphysical buddies exactly what relation this type of training has with the Law of One.
My preconceptions are that exploring your physical limits of exhaustion and pain (in addition to trimming of the body vessel) helps our minds to become clear/empty of the trivial.
The sets through which you learn techniques are fairly varied and extensive, requiring absolute focus to be performed right and thus learned to the core of ones musculature and therefore take up residence in our conciousness/mind. Repetition is encouraged till this becomes instinctive and instantly brings clarity and helps visualization on an at-will basis. The knowledge gained just through our physical instills the choice of helping/dominance as you can more and more easily help/destroy due to a larger understand of self and other (still on a pure physical level).
This I believe advances the spiritual choices for each person making more available the polarization.
For the spiritually advanced training would harmonize the body by instilling a surety to our and others behaviour in physical form. It does not, to my knowledge, cement illusion unless you want to.
If anyone would like to fill in more; please do!
EDIT: Sorry about the rather disorganized post. Time is not always with me .
