A happy spiritual traveller

A synthesis of Master Yap Boh Heong’s teachings on authentic Southern Shaolin Nei Gong and Yan Shou Gong 延壽功 — the lineage, the roadmap, the Six Levels of Internal Energy, and the operational role of the myofascial “strings” — drawn from his interviews and course previews on The Martial Man.

A deep dive into Ziranmen — Natural Boxing — its Taoist roots, legendary lineage from Dwarf Xu through Du Xinwu and Wan Laisheng, and a complete condensation of its philosophy and training methods.

A complete translation of 西域羅漢得道真詮 (Wisdom of the Luohans of the Western Regions) by the Daoist Shengxiao (circa 1800), from 少林衣缽真傳 Authentic Teachings of Shaolin. Translated by Paul Brennan.

International law, treaty obligations, and the hard-won lessons of the twentieth century. I. A Civilisation Built on Law Modern democratic civilisation did not emerge by accident. It was constructed, deliberately and painstakingly, on the ruins of two world wars, the Holocaust, colonial atrocity, and totalitarian catastrophe. The founding architects of the post-1945 international order made a…

On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury against Iran. No congressional authorization. No UN Security Council approval. Active peace negotiations were underway. A deal was described as “within reach” by Oman’s foreign minister — the day before the bombs fell. This is not spin. This is the record. The Supreme International Crime The Nuremberg Tribunal,…

Most discussions of Yiquan (意拳) and Dachengquan (大成拳) rightly begin with zhan zhuang — the standing post from which everything flows. But once a practitioner has spent serious time in the post, a question arises that reveals whether they understand the system or only admire it: How do you move? Wang Xiangzhai was unambiguous on this point. According to the Dachengquan training curriculum…

The most pivotal — and most misunderstood — instruction in all of Taijiquan: Yi (意, intent) leads Qi (氣, vital energy), and Qi moves the body. This post explores what that means in practice, how the classics explain it, and the developmental stages every serious practitioner must pass through.

The square and the circle are T’ai Chi boxing’s fundamental geometries — and both must always be present. Discover how the circular outer form conceals a square inner structure, and why this principle is the direct physical expression of Yin and Yang in martial practice.

Dr. Ma Hai Long, son of Grand Master Ma Yue Liang, is the living guardian of Shanghai Wu-style Taijiquan. Drawing on his MADDECODE interviews and the classical teachings of his lineage, this post explores the five training principles, the four root principles of the Taiji Treatise, and how to apply them in daily practice.

Wang Huai Hsiang distilled a lifetime of Chinese Kung Fu and internal alchemy into Prana Dynamics — a radical, empirical science of reverse self-engineering. His core insight: you are not a body with energy. You are the conscious awareness through which the body temporarily exists.

Yang Chengfu’s Ten Essential Points (太極拳十要) are the foundational principles of Yang-style Taijiquan, orally transmitted to Chen Weiming and first published in 1925. Adam Mizner offers a layered, embodied commentary on each point — from the suspension of the crown to the stillness at the heart of movement.

Somewhere in Columbia University’s rare book library, a clay tablet has been sitting largely misunderstood for nearly a century. It is small enough to hold in one hand. Its edges are chipped, one corner missing entirely. It was made in Babylon around 1800 BCE — roughly 3,800 years ago. And according to a 2017 paper published in Historia Mathematica, it contains a trigonometric system that is, in…
