Intrested in nature from young age and the ways or the native americans.

I was always in the forest and had a frend who did kiokishinkai karate.

I was non violent but was intersted in the mysticism surouning the martial arst. And asked him if he could find a scool where i could learn that. And startid training traditional kung fu when i was 16. in our scool we al had our speciality mine was double tigerhook swords. the thing i liked most about them is that you could form a hart with them when crossing them. the style tought at the scool was liu he. I always saw forms as examples of what people could do when they were masters of the basics. When playing a form i had the ideer that i did a dance with made me look like i was good but actualy i was nothing. The basics of the figer hook was flowering and the basics of lie he was wansau. I once asked my teatcher what was first the sword or the fist in the context of the art. And he said the sword. These 3 things are the basics of the eternal flower system. When flowering with my swords i once asked my teacher if it was possible to flower with two hands twisting in oposite direction and he said no. In my imatgination it would be possible. So i startid breaking my floweing in to peacis to learn to understand it better. Finaly i managed to flower with my weapons turning oposite directions. Then i managed to flower behind my back. But then i wanted to learn how to change the direction of the rotation of one weapon while the other keeps its course. And a whole lot of other stuf that i found out while digging. trying to master what i had imagined was to mutch for my brain to cope with at the speed i was used to at the time. but it seemed so simple so i kept on going. until my counsiosnes startid to fal away while training seeing onley red light with me eyes open. I startid to change and i had to work on everything trying to understand life but that does not do to the piont. I had to stop training the double weapon. But the system i could not let go i used the system to cultivate the energy inside and outside my body. And strartid training it with my hands in stead of my weapons. Out of this training i found a new respect for the training system. I am a pasifist and condaim every type of violence. But some one told me kung fu was the art of luring people with violence to teatch them peace and with out the fichting element people dont understand what they are doing. But it is a qi gong system. Internal and external.
