„Zhong Yun Long: ‘Here Tai chi is not just a set of forms but a complete system. The system of Tai chi chuan includes Wuji … Tai chi and Liangyi. The sequence is set from one low level to the next higher level. At the very beginning, everybody should start with Kungfu practice since the Taoist Martial Arts, like traditional Kungfu, all start with Kungfu practice. This is especially true of the internal kungfu of Taoism as it relies on the chi and blood relies on the essence, the chi and the spirit. The practice starts from the practice of chi and spirit. Chi comes from the essence, or we say essence is converted to chi. Only after we have chi we can have energy. In the beginning we practice standing meditation to release chi. This step of refining the essence and converting it into chi is called Wuji. When the practitioners get sufficient chi and the wisdom reaches a certain level they will start to use some movements to bring out their internal kungfu. This is Tai chi chuan.’“

„To combine Yin and Yang is Tai chi and to separate Yin and Yang is Liangyi. It combines the dynamic and static together… the soft and hard together. This is Tai chi – it combines the mind and the movements together. “

„As for Martial Arts, I am a professional Martial Arts practitioner and I have been practicing for many years. The highest level of Martial Arts in Taoism is health – preservation. The highest level of Martial Arts is to achieve quietness. From Liangyi to Tai chi to Wuji – the highest level is Wuji or quietness. The principle is to refine essence into chi and the chi to nourish the spirit. The spirit returns to nothing and the nothingness corresponds to Tao… so the highest level is the Tao.“

„Everyone knows that the movements of Tai chi are slow. Why are these movements slow? In Martial Arts the practitioner always fights with fast movements, and the speed of the movements is very important. Yet Tai chi chuan is slow and soft and looks like you are floating. Actually when you practice the movements of Tai chi chuan it is for circulating the chi in our bodies, or we can call it the energy in our bodies. So when the practitioners make the Tai chi movements the mind and the chi move together. It is the combination of mind and chi, the combination of the three internal elements – the mind, the chi and the power. When the mind moves, the chi will follow and then the power will come out. “
