I love Tai Chi Chuan. I love its beauty, its relaxation and tranquility, and the way it reflects the Tao.
Recently, Master instructed a martial arts expert to come and teach us Tai Chi Chuan again. The instructor gave us a hint: while practicing Tai Chi Chuan, by shifting the center of gravity alternately between the two legs, the strength of the legs will increase invisibly.
I am so grateful to Master, because once Master was trying to drive up a steep slope. As the road was rough, steep and slippery, and made further impassable by pebbles, She could not drive up. Everyone rushed forward to push the golf cart but I never managed to touch and push the cart -- I ran very hard but was a little bit too slow. I was mad at my incompetent legs which failed me when I tried to serve Master by pushing Her golf cart. Now unexpectedly, my weakness can be improved through practicing Tai Chi Chuan.
A fellow brother told us: "M"Master instructed us to play some light music while practicing Tai Chi Chuan." To improve our health so that we can meditate diligently, Master has already appointed a "martial art expert" to teach us. Master, Your disciples are already very contented. Further knowing that You are so concerned about the practical conditions of our training, our hearts are filled with an even deeper warmth.
Practicing the martial art seriously, the fellow brothers were originally very rigid, and there was no laughter at all. Observing our stern expressions, the instructor was also tense. Now, with the music drifting in the background, wow! it is a unique sensation. Master's love seems to have dissolve into the music, pouring forth incessantly. Everyone now laughs cheerfully. When the mind is relaxed, the body becomes nimble, and the actions are more loose and gentle. Consequently, we can better appreciate the profound wonders of Tai Chi Chuan.
Master! You can always grasp the vital points of the difficulties in life, and with Your gentle touch, make everything become easy and wonderful. Bestowed with the heavenly grace of living here and savoring Your infinite sacred love that soothes us, we are truly a blessed group of children.
