Baguazhang has some of the most effective Medical chi kung available, however, it is not easy to learn. It requires an education
of your body for what it is, energy and vortexes in transformation and change or in resistance to change....
The Vajra Transmission
A seed of illumination is given to provide light where one is blind. A foot hold as well as a foot in the door. Spiritual
practices run more efficiantly with spiritual energy flowing through it... These empowerments or transmissions are given through
a ceremony, , laying of hands, through the eyes such as during a lecture or through a strike. It is a science whithin itself.
Vajra Transmissions are sometimes offered in private sessions during the Sifu's seminar visits.
Originally, vajra transmissions were given from shaman to shaman and from monk to monk to preserve a body of awakened
beings during a dark period ... Kali yuga. This period still exists and still requires this seed of illumination, for learning,
for healing, for kung fu, for transformation

Transmission & Empowerment
As read in most classics, 'One cannot fully master or comprehend the art without true
transmission from the Master.' This statement is true for the arts that we practice. Empowerments are given to pass abilities,
lineage, energy, etc. from the master to student. This directly affects the students ability to absorb, comprehend and demonstrate
the art. Several years ago this aspect of taoism was contraversial, but it is a widely accepted knowledge presently, so i
feel no need to explain further.
In the days of the original shaman, the environment, food and the body was pure.
Energy flow was obvious. People were more in tune. They knew when their energy was disturbed before it became mental or physical...
The shaman transformed this energy.

Based on Tibetan Tantric origins Forms are elemental in nature and open psychic channels and
corresponding energy centers that relate to the shape of the tantric temple of Nepal and Tibet. There are mudras called Kuji
Kiri for each form or Katachi. The forms evolve from lines to angles to curves and circular and spiral forces. Each consecutive
form influences the ones before it. Each form manipulates the matching element in yourself and the opponent. The forms teach
the practitioner about the elements of the body and how they work individually, and combined. The path is Self Mastery through
