the heart of taiji
at the heart of our martial Art is Peace,
which also is Truth
at the heart of peace is Self defence,
which also is being at one with our own Ground
at the heart of self defence is regular Practice,
which also is Meditation
at whose heart lies our return to the Source
Thus we tread the paths of tradition, the Old and wandering Way,
to find ourselves on misted Ascents that climb to the Pass of enlightenment
I have used the pinyin taiji here, in the title.
In lower case in particular it has a pleasing balance that, even
given my desire for consitencey, I find occasionally impossible to resist.
