Martial arts and AP

[NeoSaturn]

is anybody else here in any martial arts?

because i am a black belt in taekwondo, and i found tha AP and taekwondo support each other, i mean when you AP you relax, whick you need for martial arts, and martial arts teach discipline, and i meditate to focus.

in my oppinion, they go together like chocolate and bar.  

[NeoSaturn]

nobody cares, do they?

[Andali27]

they support it to a degree, by that I mean, teaching you basic fundemental skills for AP, but it's not a necessity for AP.

[NeoSaturn]

oh, i agree, its just that i was stating how two of the most important things in my life work together.

[Smilodon29A]

Yeah I agree.

I train Thai box and you need to be relaxed there too, you can't hit good if you are not relaxed

Apparently the shaolin monks are able to leave theyre bodys.

They dedicate theyre whole lifes to martial arts.

Yeah actually my previous kung fu teacher actually was taught metaphysics and AP by his old teacher.  And the would also use their energy and what not to get rid of bad spirits and negs.  

I still pretty much taught myself but he used to answer questions I had.  I wish I could find another school that taught that, but oh well.

I think energy work goes with martial arts SO well.  To me, when you do energy work you're purifying your body, which goes hand in hand with martial arts which puts that purification to work.  Say you do a lot of work on your hips, your kicks will improve.  Work on your shoulders, they'll have more snap.  Try this:  every time you do energy work, exercise afterward.  Do a typical warm up, then do whatever the heck feels right.  I'm really glad you've found this, man.

Whats a NEG?

[NeoSaturn]

Nobody?

[Smilodon29A]

I think negs are negative entities right ?

And also martial arts or any kind of sport purifies your physical body, and
AP, energy work and the like purify you spiritually.

Heh. New martial art AP method: Get somebody to hit you so hard your astral body is knocked loose

Well I think its diffrent with every martial art but yea they do combine ( would also with normal sports btw ). anyway. I am thinking about joining KI-Aikido and that has to do with quite alot (ki being life energy, as you will already know    )
They use the body awareness a lot (although its called one point). Really Great, feeling very positive since my first lesson yesterday!! (also relaxed).
