The Art of Flowing
Those warriors are fierce, clinging to their weapons and their pride. But the old man in front of them do not have any weapon and his calm is his strength.
The warriors attacked with fast, violent and aggressive movements. The old man seemed not to get around, everyone thought that he would be defeated. After a few seconds the fierce warriors have been defeated, the old man remains calm, the warriors will never get up .
How did the old man win? How did the warriors lost? They asked the old man: " What techniques did you use?"
The old man smiled and said: " No techniques."
"But how can this be?" They insisted
And the old man answered: " Techniques are used only at the beginning of the game but then, the forms disappear, the combat disappears, everything turns silent, the battle is finished." And they asked one more question: " Where is your strength?"
And he only said: " In the wind." And then left.
And I asked myself: " What happened to the warriors? Why they did not survive?"
And the answer is :" The Art of the Wind is united to the Art of the Water, it is powerful as Fire but even more powerful than Fire.

Who are You, the Drop of Water or the Ocean?
Ki arises when truth expresses itself as fortitude, work, harmony. That's why Ki is naturally present in the whole nature. And the whole nature has an order and a movement.
Look at the flowing of the wind, feel it. Look at the bird flying in the wind, in the space, watch how the bird returns to its nest. Look how the big birds rise. Look at the foam of the sea how softly it comes to the shore and although the wave may be giant and explosive, the foam is delicate and abundant .
Listen to the wind in the sea: Can you separate them, perhaps?
Look how the wood crackles in the fire, look how the fire becomes wood and the wood becomes fire. And in this way, contemplating nature and contemplating yourself, then you will see that the universe is not separated but joined as a small stone tied to a mountain, as a drop of water to the ocean.
Who are you, the drop of water or the ocean? Where are the limits? Where is the beginning? Where is the end?
Now, reflect, go over the words, cut them using discernment, live the moment.
Discover who you are and discover the unveiled truth. Ki flows, eternally flows.

Ki. Fundamental Essence.
Time, space, science, values, are aspects of life, difficult to define in a few words but if we try to define something essential and fundamental as Ki, then we need more than words, we need the experience.
Can we embrace the sea, the wind? Can we fly as the bird or shine as the sun?
Perhaps, it would be much better to allow to be taken, to flow and to contemplate.And after doing this for the whole life, then, we will know something about our own reality and about Ki as the fundamental essence.

Fortitude. Inner Peace.
Fortitude is acquired by practicing, since only by being steadfast, we manage to overcome the limits. Improvement must never be expected in a hurry.
Difficulties come to be the most important teachings since not everything is as easy as we want; it is possible that the sacrifice of today is the success of tomorrow.
Nevertheless, work and discipline begin in our thought and heart, then as it is natural, the body obeys and the skill is achieved that always should be humble, because if we would spoil it by being arrogant, then, it would become an obstacle that would prevent us from reaching the real goals.
The art consists in flowing in the universe, overcoming the violence, the aggressiveness and reaching inner peace.

The Wind and the Sea
The wind and the sea flow and flow in a constant and perfect romance. Everything in life has its place and nobody has more nor less, since we all have a perfect place there.
The wind flows over the sea lifting the wave. The wind flows over the sea bringing the light that makes out of the sky, a kiss to the surface of sand, in order to start all over again...

The Perfect Balance
The whole universe flows toward a perfect balance. The art of this expansion -until the culmination of the perfect harmony- represents in man, the power to express and to liberate all the energy, that as a potential state, culminates his development as the conscious awakening to true love.
Certainly, all that exists is energy and it constantly flows. However, there is only one way that this energy have the correct sense of equilibrium.
We can understand the magnitude of this knowledge when is revealed to our heart, the true intention toward the communion with the integral and absolute good.
The art of flowing which is the art of living and finally the art of been, integrates all in existence in one cosmic consciousness, which exalts the personal vision to an integral and unitary vision, respecting the individuality, but at the same time, integrating everything in the deepest expression of unconditional love.
