Secrets of Shaolin Internal Kung Fu.

- H. C. Chao.

"...Whoever train himself for various kinds of pugilism must train also in the Gong Fu (Internal Training) for increasing his capability in fighting skill. The pugilism gives us the necessary methods for countering the enemy while the Gong Fu training prepare us to gain a victory over the enemy under any circumstances. Some people who are good in pugilism without the foundation of Gong Fu training, may sometimes get the worst in the battle. A Chinese proverb says: To train in the pugilism without Gong Fu will take you nowhere when reaching an old age..."

"...The great Shaolin Master named Hung Huea once said:

"The function of breathing is to enable the Chi (Qi) to travel to the whole body. When the Chi (Qi) is traveled to the parts of chest, ribs, belly and head you will not feel pain if somebody hit you with hard stick or iron rod on that particular portion."

This is because the part of your body is filled up with Chi (Qi), which protect you as a buckler to withstand the outer blow..."

SECRETS OF SHAOLIN INTERNAL KUNG FU

FROM THE BOOK:

"...The emphasis of the Internal Exercise is to set the Chi (Qi) in motion and to have it traversed to any part of the body you so desire, for example, the arms, the palms, the back and the elbows. The point of difficulty is that the Chi (Qi) is not ready to receive the command particularly from a beginner. Frankly speaking, such thing seems difficult because according to our experience nobody can do that when one just starts the first lesson without the foundation of such art s before. Therefore, we recommend the following method as a medium to attain the purpose..." (Ch.: The Key of the Training of the Internal Exercise.)
