Profound - In Depth - Taijiquan Theory In the last seven centuries,
many songs and poems have been composed about Taijiquan. These have
played a major role in preserving the knowledge and wisdom of the
masters, although in many cases, the identity of the authors and
the dates of origin have been lost. As lifelong pursuit, Dr. Yang,
Jwing-Ming has translated many of these documents and according to
him, believes many are incomplete for reasons relating to:
forgotten oral secrets, the original authors personal understanding
being too narrowly focused, and many documents that have gone
missing could help unify Taijiquan theory. In response, his book
Taijiquan Theory of Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming is an attempt to join the
various theories on Taijiquan in one complete text. This book is
structured with treaties, songs, and poems, followed by the
original Chinese text and interpretations of the passages. Contents
include Regulating the body, breath, mind, Qi & spirit Analysis
of Jin, pushing hands and sparring Taijiquan's long range and short
range fighting strategies The relationship of Jin and Qi The
unification of the internal Qi and external physical manifestations
of Qi "Based upon my personal background and understanding, I have
tried my best to compile the Taijiquan Theory and practice concepts
in this book. I have attempted to make this effort as complete as
possible". -Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming This second edition includes
Updated pinyin that includes diacritical tonal marks (for proper
pronunciation of Chinese words). Updated Chinese text character
font (providing better readability).
