这次的讲座官贵中及吴素真老师将会介绍太极相关的知识,也会带着大家实际练习太极拳的招数,同时也增进自己的英文语言能力和知识。我以前修过他们的太极拳课,所以这次再见面老师们,很高兴。

我极力推荐元门太极拳,对身体跟精神健康很好。养身方面动作上,透过俯仰、屈伸、搂坳、绞转、虚实开合与重心交替变换。以畅通经络血管、淋巴及循环系统。增加神经系统之灵敏性。提高各关节肌力与肌耐力的柔韧度。加上 深、长、细、缓、匀的腹式逆式深层呼吸,横隔膜的上下升降,提升心肺功能。此外,对肠的蠕动也有正面的刺激作用。

养心方面行拳时。练习中正安舒,心静体松,精神内守。精神上追求恬淡虚无,宁静致远的境界,同时能调节身心和谐平衡,以达养心定性。

我对太极拳拳理的认识,以前的太极拳是怎样的我不知道,也没有考证过,但根据现在我们练的东西,我认为太极拳拳理在格斗中最直接的应用环境类似摔跤+擒拿,是贴身缠斗的一种。太极拳拳理的精华在控制重心,初学者控制自己的重心让自己不容易被摔倒,再进一阶可以控制对方重心,让对方摔倒,最后达到对重心运行规律极为熟悉并通过本能反应控制重心的境界,缠斗中不经过思考就可以摔倒对手。我觉得这就是太极拳理论的「见自己、见众生、见天地」,也是「由招熟而渐悟懂劲,由渐悟懂劲而阶及神明」。 

最后,再说到太极拳的文化。一句至理名言这么说:「人只有两只手两只脚,所以天下所有的格斗技都大同小异」,那么区分不同拳法的关键是什么呢?我认为是文化,太极拳能够申遗,我认为其文化成分佔多数,他结合了中国的道家的阴阳中庸思想、融合了上善若水的理念,而正是这个思想理念让它有了中国特色,所以学习太极拳不可以不学习太极文化。

今天是十一月而二日的云水书院第五场讲座,这次的讲座是请官贵中及吴素真老师,来谈及教导太极相关健康知识,带着我们实际练习太极拳,同时也增进我们的英文语言能力。

因为这些太极拳的内容我们并不太了解,只能就印象中的记忆来写心得。

我觉得这场讲座非常好,带给我们很多不懂或错误的观念的改正的帮助。如果只是会打太极拳,只是套路,还要会练功的心法,才能回到道家的逆修养生,而且是要点滴累积,从低频到高频,是需要时间养成,无法跳跃。身体本身的修行,有动力~即接受,有阻力是即执着。大致上身体是夏放,秋收冬藏,春天是释放能量,节气时令有出场与进场,应吃当季本土的食物,今冬北风,是有邪风,会偏头痛。最后教我们练站

马桩,即气功的导引,很精彩,却觉得时间过很快,意犹未尽,很期待下次再相逢。很感恩。

Actually I learned Tai Chi Chuan a long time ago, but I have never practiced that. I think every teacher has his or her own style of teaching, they can teach the same thing but in different ways. 

This teacher started to explain the history of Tai Chi Chuan. That is kind of interesting to me. Before I usually thought Tai Chi Chuan history was about two hundred years old only, however, it was way longer than that. Moreover, the teacher also explains some theory of Tai Chi Chuan, and the mind's connection with environment and food. That is also an interesting part for me. It seems Tai Chi Chuan uses a lot of Taoism thought and philosophy. He explained that food is an important part of our body, we should take the local food, local food is something most fit for local people. The tomato from the local area can help to clean your body’s poison. In fact, those imported foods from overseas created lots of carbon footprints and despicable plastic trash. People should try to eat local food as much as they can, which is better for the environment and body. 

In conclusion, this is a good course to learn about the theory of Tai Chi Chuan. Although I did not have much time to practice in class.

I remembered when I was around 10, my mom brought me to learn Tai Chi Quan, the traditional Taoist martial arts.

At that time, I only managed to practice the  movements but not the regulating of qi in the inner body as I didn't understand its principles on how to combine the two. I quit after taking several lessons.

As time goes by, my body is getting weaker. I started to pay attention to information about fitness, eg.Tai Chi and Yoga.

 

Last Wednesday, my classmates and I attended this talk about Tai Chi Chuan: An ancient wisdom on exercise and health promotion from the East. 

 

The speaker, master Kuan and his wife, explained slowly and carefully on the acupuncture points, the theories of how the physical movements, breathing and mind focusing that could lead to the qi flow in the inner body, channel and activate the meridians, open the closed acupuncture points in order to help gather essence in our five viscera and six internal organs.

We paid full attention to the theories and practiced the movements almost towards the end of the talk. It's really fun.

 

Although there was insufficient time, we still benefit a lot.

In my opinion, no matter what type of martial arts that we choose to practice, most importantly is our willingness to embrace the changes forced on us by aging and injury. Through practicing, we develop greater mindfulness and self-awareness, inner self-cultivation and health. Looking forward to attending more similar talks in the future.

元门太极是太极的其中一种,很幸运能够在学校里面有一个初步的体验。其实太极是一种适合不同年纪的人来学习,这可以让身体有活动的机会,太极能对应着身体的五脏六腑,能疏通经络,能强化身体机能及补足亏损。除了可以伸展肌肉,又可以通经脉,调和身体的阴阳。

其实,是次的讲座时间很短,只能感受到太极一些很初步的概念,跟穴道、精、气、神的关系。而站椿更加是一种甚深的学问,如果能天天站椿,身体一定会非常好。

太极亦跟印度的三脉七轮学说有很相似之处。如果以七轮学说来说,站椿就好像七轮中的强化底轮,而百会穴就好像七轮中的顶轮。

Tai Chi, an ancient Martial Arts, which is active since the Ming/Ching Dynasty. Traditional Martial Arts are usually focused on your body movement with high speed and powerful strength, however, Tai Chi advocates slowing down your movement and breath, relaxing the joints and tendons, and focusing your mind, some parts are totally different from traditional martial arts’ concept.

 

In this lecture, Master Kuan focus on Qi practice which is very useful to our inner body health. I’m surprised the pattern form of Yuanmen Tai Chi is very beautiful. It’s good for performance and presentation.

第一次看到有太极主题的讲座。一开始因为英文讲座,差一点要退缩不想要聼,但是还好我有坚持去聼因为原来是有中文的。讲到太极我就会很开心是因为我觉得太极也是可以定心和健康身体的。在讲座上有教我们各个穴位。也有教我们各个穴位的功能,就像有几个穴位是用来驱寒也有驱湿。

在讲座的PPT有很仔细的叫我们怎么做太极的时候应该有的动作或者心境。老师和翻译老师有用「例子」让我们更了解太极所说的收和放。因为太极很注重收和放,为什么注重呢?是因为练太极有时候会只是练「放」。那「放」什么呢?老师说练太极有时候是在放我们的元气,而如果我们只是会「放」不会「收」,那我们会短命。如果我们会「放」和「收」的话,我们可以强健身体是因为我们有「放」我们体内的元气,但是我们也有「收」天地的元气(气)。「天气」是很难要被身体所用,我们需要用「地气」来锁住「天气「让「天气」能为我们所用。老师也有带领我们做三个太极的「式」。很希望下一次还有这个主题的讲座。

这次的元门太极讲座,之前实在演讲前就对这个主题非常有兴趣,因为周遭的亲朋好友有人学过,以及正在学习的。刚好这次的演讲又是特别为英文组的同学所举办的,没想到那天竟然来了超多的人,看来大家都对于太极这门功夫非常感兴趣。

讲师大概在前一个半小时都在讲解关于我们中国道家是如何养「气」的,所以我很希望多听一点,但他们光是整个粗略的讲完一遍后,时间也差不多不够了,讲师还很热心想要继续往下补充,我当然是很乐意想要多听一点,不过最后还是做了一些实作的练习,来当作带给大家的体验。后来也听说原来他们元门太极原来在我们佛光大学已经开课开了非常多年,这学期的时间是在礼拜一的早上,不过碍于这学期我刚好在那个时段有课,所以如果想学的话可能就要等下学期了。
