I'm in tai chi currently and have done training in gong fu, I was wondering if anyone else is doing REAL tai chi or gong fu, i really dont care about the dbz type stuff. I want to talk to the real tai chi/gong fu students who actually KNOW something.

THE DAMN TRUTH IS THAT WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR PSYCHIC CENTERS YOU ARE ABLE TO "PULL" AND "PUSH" ENERGY.

Imagine a string is pulling your head up from the crown point. Breath into your dan tien.  Imagination is key unless you want to die(almost die) to get your psychic centers to open.  Other ways are through tai chi/meditative movement/breathing excercises.  I find that "breathing through your skin" helps in finding the energy.

I have read that shen is spirit energy but also the mind...

I have the same feeling, only in my feet.  It usually starts on days when i push energy through my feet and mostly when im in bed. I've learned to ignore it usually.  I'll ask my tai chi instructor on thursday about it because i also would like to know about it.

My tai chi instructor says its etiher a pulse of energy or a wave.  A pulse being a short wave.  He says its normal.

i get that too...i'll ask my tai chi instructor next time i see him...tommorow...mine kinda feels like a pulse...possibly a wave

Right now im just feeling the energy and removing blockages.  I'm also learning new things about the form and about my dan tien...i know about the micro and macro orbital orbits, condensing breathing, meditation...and some other stuff...all i did in gong fu training was the gong part...force really...faster punches and kicks...fundamentals...
