I visited a chinese book fair today to see are there any new Chen Taiji titles. There was one by Chen XiaoWang with a nice hardcover binding but poor quality printing and papers in it.  This keeps me thinking..how many of us doing a nice Taiji routine form but no “substance” beneath it? How many of us has been caught by the aesthetic factor of the form  that we have neglect the inner qi and jing development?
We often said we must cultivate both externally and internally. External will be the form …
