Zhang Sanfeng and Tai Ji Chuan Theory
Zhang Sanfeng's Life and the Creation of Boxing School.
There are different legends about Zhang Sanfeng. According to "Biography of Zhang Sanfeng in Ming Dynasty", he was born in Yizhou, Liaodong (now Yixian, Liaoning), named Quan Yi, whose real name is Junbao, whose real name is Sanfeng and whose real name is Xuanxuanzi. My ancestral home is Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi. Appearance? He is tall and powerful, with a turtle-shaped crane back, big ears and round eyes. He must be as tall as a halberd.
Usually untidy, the only one that withers in hot and cold weather is called? Zhang Wei? . His whereabouts are erratic, his behavior is weird, his books are unforgettable, he is good at playing, and he is harmonious. I have been to Wudang Mountain many times. On the mountain? Create grass and live in it? , an alchemist, boxing. Later, he went to Qingcheng and heming in Sichuan to seek the truth.
Zhang Sanfeng wrote many works in his life, among which the most credible works handed down from generation to generation are On the Avenue, Talking about Mystery, and Mystery Brief. Zhang Sanfeng and his disciples practiced monasticism in Wudang Mountain, and Ming Chengzu built his martial arts as an official, so his Dan method was handed down from generation to generation, saying? Wudang Taoism? .
It has five characteristics.
1, bye? Zhenwu the Great? Serve Zhenwu the Great like a father.
Zhenwu Emperor is the God of the Seven Nights in the North, whose image is tortoise and snake, and he is a great northern god believed by Taoism. Wudang Mountain has been the Dojo where Taoism worships the God of Zhenwu since ancient times.
2. with what? Tai Chi? Theory is fundamentalism.
Zhang Sanfeng's thought of Dan Dao originated from Chen Tuan School. Promise and Tai Chi? Li said. In the article "On the Avenue", he systematically expounded the idea that Tai Chi can be divided into Yin and Yang, and Yin and Yang can be used in reverse, so that people can be born if they go with it and become immortal if they go against it. He believes that heaven and earth are full of Tai Chi, and the human body is also the spirit of Artest. If you know Tai Chi in heaven and earth and Tai Chi in human body, you can practice boxing and alchemy to prove Daoguo.
3. The cultivation process of double cultivation before inner alchemy.
Zhang Sanfeng's Dan method belongs to the double cultivation system of Inner Dan, represented by Xuan Ji's blood, mysterious pills and rootless trees. Its refining method is called. Immortal grafting? , with double mining? External use? , in order to repair? Internal medicine? . External medicine is produced in the caves of nature, and internal medicine is produced in Guanyuan's own air bag. Internal medicine is refined and external medicine is smoked. Internal medicine is sexual, external medicine is life-saving, and life is double-cultivation, which is in line with the way of becoming immortal. After the mid-Jiaodai period, Wudang Taoism was merged into Quanzhen Longmen Sect, and the double cultivation method was lost because it did not conform to the purpose of Quanzhen Beizong Sect. Since then, cleaning has replaced double repair.
4. Chuang? Wudang Neijia Boxing? , forming a Taoist martial arts school.
There are many people who practice martial arts in Taoism, such as Taoist Wang Zhongyang and Bai Yuchan Ren Xia, who is good at martial arts. However, it was not until the rise of Wudang Taoism that the Taoist martial arts school was formed. Wudang Neijia Boxing is one of the stunts in the history of Taoism, and its first achievement is to popularize Zhang Sanfeng, a Taoist priest in Wudang in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Zhang Sanfeng's understanding was suddenly aroused when he saw a fight between a magpie and a snake, so he made it a biography of Tai Chi. In the Qing Dynasty, Huang Baijia's Neijia Boxing Law, Wang Zhengnan's epitaph, and the Annals of Ningbo-Zhang Songxi's Biography all believed that Zhang Sanfeng was the founder of Wudang Neijia Boxing.
