      Master Gu's graceful moves, the snow capped environment, and the music -- all while daily life is going on around him. Beautiful!

    • @captainp.2721
      @captainp.2721 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would dub it the " waterfowl dance" for it is very smooth and graceful. But I'm sure it already has a name in Chinese culture.

    As Sifu has aged his swordsmanship has tempered, the visual spectacle replaced with refined pure natural swordsmanship, nothing moving independently ,everything pure. Finally, this is not a taiji sword form, it is taiji sword.
    Respect.

    @jaylinn416 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    The position of the deadly sword, the body's stability, and the constant smooth motion are truly remarkable!!!

  • @captainp.2721

    Quite mesmerizing to watch.
    I've been searching for the answers that I've failed to find for a decade. How to overcome deep depression, daily high stress, how to deal with external negativity directed towards you.... Ive tried everything i could think of...nothing worked. Until i listened to a progressive rock music where there was a segment of bruce lee saying " be water my friend". It stuck with me, and through him, i found Daoism. The wisdom presented is incredible, and it translates incredibly well to even modern life.
    Some concepts are very hard to grasp, especially for ESL, but through masters Gu, ive understood them better.
    China is such an amazing place with incredible history. I hope ill have the chance to see it in my lifetime.
    Thank yo for this wonderful video. Much love from Europe.

    紫霄宫, many good memories there ❤
    We were there in the evening for a training in the building at the top of the Monk's quarters, a clear starry night.
    I walked outside with a beautiful gal I loved, and we saw what was most certainly a UFO. . . something that moved across the sky in horizontal and vertical lines, much too quickly to be anything known-to-laypeople technology.

    I was under the impression that Qi Gong was quite under fire in the China. Is this not so?
    If so. Do be careful. I have no doubt you and master Gu know what you are doing.
    I pray for your safety.
    I believe Christians and Taoist have much the share, and much to learn from each other.

    Don't know why Chinese always want to use those old martial arts to compete against modern mma in a bare hand fight while all of them need to use weapon like sword, dao, spear, etc...
