影武者言 (6)   The Shadow Warrior (6)
即學即用 ,孤軍作戰式的 :
[絕境求生自衛術!-- 

"Life-o-Death Self-Defence 4 Dummies !
('Dummies' here refer to those non-martially trained righteous media workers.) 

敬獻給對自衛武術毫無認識 ,手無寸鐵 ,可能被迫至無路可逃 ,又不曉得如何作自衛反擊的 媒體介每一位正義自由鬥士 。

上兩回 影武(4)  (5) 是開叉筆 ,現在先行重溫 影武 (2) (3) 回所提之 --

學武初手須知

[1] [武]字何解 ?武 = "止二弋"!以正義之超卓武功武力 ,制止二人(兩國)舞動弋矛(兵戎)相鬥相爭 ,防止侵害 。此之所謂[止戈為武]。

[2]  學武以德為本 。

[3]  心理百份百武裝 ,信念積極堅強 !煩躁不安 ,或者心慌意亂 :都會令你心亂如麻 ,心亂則氣散 !你又怎樣可以集中意念 ,智力 ,勇力 ,潛能 ,在瞬間聚焦 ,作雷霆萬鈞之反擊呢 ?千萬要保持鎮定 ,不憂不懼 !

[4]  當陷險境 ,面對強徒 ,孰退孰降孰戰 ?暴侵在即 ,命懸一線 !附近求救無門 ,你又不能全身而退 ,自衛武術就是你唯一可利用的最後手段了 !決意自衛而戰 ,必須狠下決心 :全心全身全靈 ,奮戰到底 !不擊倒兇徒決不停手 !
毋忘深長呼吸 ,全身放鬆 ,置之死地而後生 ,作背水一戰 ,出手快狠凖巧靈 ,招招辣勁 ,貫穿敵體(46) ,反擊不停 ,狂擊休停 !無隙予敵 ,你停敵攻 !絕不留情 !心意既決 ,從而心安神寧 ,思路敏銳 ,明察秋毫 ,使身心從先前的[警覺態],快速進入[危機態],心如止水,盡釋潛能!要集中意念 ,爆發潛能 ! 先決條件是 "心靜神寜 處變不驚" ! 

[5]  不一樣的時空感知能耐 ,速度節奏 :要以極強意念 ,全心全意相信 ,自覺"自身觀感動作反超快極速!" 心志為先 ,決戰心勁 !

[6]  心靜神寜 ,集中意念 :爆發自身潛能! 動作自然流暢 ,要快要準要有力 ,威力極其強大 ! 要先扭腰向前挺胯 ,串連帶動肩肘拳快速 ,大喝一聲 ,迅速穿過目標 ,中間沒有半點阻滯停留 ,然後拳頭依照原來的軌跡 ,繼續往前打 "follow-through!" 完成好像打網球 ,壘球和高爾夫球的手法一樣 。

[7]  慎防外敵 "心靈" 偷襲 !

言歸正傳,現在續談談
 
[8] 武術初學者 應該採用的 最安全,又不會自傷指掌或腕關節的 拳掌式手型

因為若果未受過訓練 謬謬然學人掄起拳頭 , 就用 標拳' --  也叫直拳立拳  沖拳: 詠春 "日字沖拳’'  (出右手者 ,拳心向左,拳輪向下) ,或者用陰拳,也叫 平拳  (拳心向下)猛力擊打強敵 結果多半是[殺敵一千 ,自損八百!]另外,大多數職埸女士們 Office Ladies 都留著又修長又尖利的指甲 ,不適宜緊握拳頭 。順便介紹好書:釋德掦編著 少林羅漢拳(附有 DVD 光盤;HK$68)

現在,在下誠意要向各位 武學新手 推薦採用安全有效,簡易實用的手型 :

第一手型: 槍掌 Spear Hand or Fingers Thrust,也叫 仰掌 ,或 昭(招)陽掌(掌心向上)

(正因為 Office Ladies 都留著又修長又尖利的指甲 槍掌就是 利刃刃尖也比餘下種拳式長了整整半個手掌的長度!)
 
槍掌 擊出後掌指向前 ,掌心向上 ,四指間微留縫隙 ,拇指內扣。 (是為)仰掌主要用於搶擊對方咽喉部位或眼睛這些部位是少林功夫中慎言不打的部位,不到情況危機 ,不能輕易攻擊這些人體脆弱部位。(圖見該書第15)
當然,仰掌 可以隨意變成 反掌 (掌心向下),也叫 撲掌(也是 詠春 之 '標指': Fingers Jab)掌出後 ,掌心向下 主要用於偷襲對方面部… 讓其猝不及防。

第二掌式

八字掌,'虎口叉牚' Web Strike or Y-Hand Strike (掌心向下)猛力直線擊打對方咽喉 。
The first two pictures below, showing the same right-hand Web Strike through the throat, are found on pages 90 and 91 of "STREET SMARTS -- A Personal Safety Guide for Women' by Louise Rafkin.                

For the black-and-white picture below, another Web Strike through the throat using the left hand, see page 68 of "SELF-DEFENSE -- Steps to Success" by Joan M. Nelson.  
(A: Attacker;  D: Defender)

第三掌式: 掌根 Palm Heel,也叫 正立掌 (掌心向前)


即四指並攏 ,伸直 大拇指內屈 ,掌尖向上 ,掌心向前 用掌根猛力擊打對方咽喉 ,下顎 ,鼻子,太陽穴等部位。(圖見該書第14)

The first pic above, a left-hand Palm Strike through the chin, is found on page 86 of "Fighting Karate" by Hideyuke Ashihara. The second, a right-hand Palm Strike through the nose, page 64 of Joan Nelson's book.   
The photo below, showing the use of the right Palm Heel, appears on page 127 of "Karate Breaking Techniques" by Jack Hibbard.


 
拳式: 砸拳 Hammer Fist (出右手者 ,拳心向左)--
屈肘舉拳 ,拳底(即拳輪)向下 ,用肩臂帶動上肢力量 ,由上向下發力砸擊 ,或者由胸前向側(拳心向下),或向上斜飛擊打(拳心向下),直擊要害 猛力瘋狂反擊兇徒頭面額(太陽穴) ,眼耳鼻喉! (圖見該書第19)

The above picture of a right Hammer-Fist strike through the temple is shown on page 92 of "STREET SMARTS -- A Personal Safety Guide for Women' by Louise Rafkin.

Never under-estimate the power of a Hammer Fist strike! 仿如"鐵擂槌"! (See page 131 of Jack Hibbard's book.)

影武者言 (5) 來!感受一下你自身的真氣如何? S Warrior 5 Come, Feel your own Qi!

影武者言 (5) 來!感受一下你自身的真氣如何? 
The Shadow Warrior (5)  Come, Feel your own Qi or Life-Energy!

首先,何謂真氣? 真氣何來?

何謂 "氣"?

以字論字,"氣" 字部首出於"气",字尾添上"米",所謂"氣"者: 即意指由煮米而生出之"米气"或 "水蒸氣"本意謂於人体是由食物而來之 "能量動力" ! 
( 亦可伸引為一種特有的 "氣体狀態",如自然界的水蒸氣, 天氣,氧氣,氣候等,又或者是指某埸合或某人之 "特有精神面貌,剛正的氣節",如 氣勢,人氣,氣焰等。)

"氣" 字古字寫法是 "炁":
'旡' = 無; '四點' = 火。"炁" 意指 "無火", 意謂是宇宙中存在的能量,像空中的太陽"沒有明火",但是能像核爆炸所產生的極高温烈 "火" 一樣地遙距發放輻射光能熱能,幫助大地生物生存生長 !    

何謂 "真氣"?

真氣又叫元氣, 或原氣,正氣,是由母胎帶來的"先天之氣"。
真氣是"人體內存在的能量,以供人體活動所需"。
真氣是人生命之泉源,是人生命之動力,是一種流動的精微物質,由精,氣,津,液,血等物質組成。

人體內的"氣",主要除了由母胎帶來的"先天之氣"之外,還有從空氣中呼吸得來的"清氣",和從飲食中攝取得來的"水谷之氣",從而做出"渾元氣",後三者都稱為"後天之氣"。

黃帝內經。素問刺法論》:「正氣存內,邪不可干。之所湊,其氣必虛

來!一起感受一下你自身的真氣如何?

常理而言,人通常是看不到,摸不到,和感受不到這種中医所謂人體內 "真氣" 的。所以,不相信有"真氣"這一回事的人,大有人在,這也是理所當然。

當然啦,對"氣"異常敏感之人士(大約十人中會有一二位),或者在習練氣功(包括靜坐,站樁,太極拳等)而已"得氣",或 指掌間已有 "氣感"者,則作別論。

為什麽會這樣呢?原因非常簡單: 很可憐地,人類雙眼只能夠看到整個 電磁波頻譜 中一點點的東西而已!(這"一點點的東西" 正是下圖粉紅色的小格﹗左下角橙色小格是人類腦電波频率。 "Brain wave frequencies ranging from 0.5 to 35 cycles/second." See page 21 of "THE UNSEEN SELF -- Kirlian Photography Explained" by Brian Snellgrove.)
   

[以上該書封面是用 "克里安(高频高壓電場)照相術" 所拍出來的一名健康正常人的右掌照片,淺藍色如閃電狀物體就是人體內存的 "真氣" 影象! 這是時刻轉變的,因為人是活的。]

普通人通常都可以感受到自身雙手的 "氣",做法如下:
安靜地坐著,全身放鬆,自然呼吸,大力搓熱雙掌掌心 (這是打開你雙掌中心之內勞宮穴,大大增加指掌間的氣血運行),把雙手輕輕放在胸前,雙掌掌心相對,兩掌間留著約二至三吋空位,然後慢慢把雙掌拉開至四吋空間,再慢慢合攏,(但是不可令雙掌相碰,柤碰的話,你掌心的氣自然地又從另一隻手跑回你体內,你就不會感受到氣的輻射!)  你只管用心靜静地去感受你自身的氣,不需用腦去想。再做多幾次,你會發覺雙掌間不但有熱能感覺 (這是正常物理現象:磨擦生熱),也好像微微有壓力感和磁性! 記得在下說過 "氣主要是電磁波嗎?" (哈哈,你找到了!)

另外,根據本人體現, 練氣習武有小成之人,知曉發送內氣(例如在下),經過訓練,是可以約略地看到和感受到自身和他人部份真氣,即便是"人体生物氣埸" : the body's "aura" or auric surround '慧光' 或者 '輝光',or the "bio-energetic fields"。The Soviets called this the "bio-plasma".  

想看看自身真氣,可在沒有外間光線照射之暗室內,(當然,伸手不見五指的話,就什麽都看不到了。) 在可以朦朧地看到自己雙手的情況下,運氣到雙掌,或者大力搓熱掌心 (打開雙掌之勞宮穴),把雙手放在胸前,雙手手指相對,雙手間留著約八吋空位,然後慢慢把雙掌拉合至四,五吋空間,再慢慢拉開,你只管用心靜静地去感受你自身指掌間的氣,你會發覺雙掌或者只是一掌一指有"針刺"感,或者是有"痺,麻,痒,熱"等感覺,或者你可能看到掌指間發出微微淡綠色的 "霧氣"
         
(page 33, ibid.)
"This is an experiment which can be performed by anyone. Sit quietly in a chair. Place your hands about 20 cm. (8 inches) apart. Move your hands towards each other and then slightly from side to side. Do not 'think' about this action but concentrate on any feelings. You may feel prickles in the fingers of one or both hands. They will vary as you move your hands."
                                                   
"The reality of the energy field. An experiment anyone can perform."

"Sit down with a friend. Get them to remove rings, watches, etc. and place their left palm upwards, in front of them, supported if necessary by a cushion. Place your right hand, palm upwards, beneath their hand; your left hand on top. Move your hands slowly towards the hand of your partner. It is important to suspend any judgemental activity and try to keep the mind blank. Simply 'listen' to your hands.Take notice of any tingles, warmth, images, body impressions, impulses. ... Imagine that there is going to be an electrical dialogue -- or silent talking -- between your hands and the hand of the other." (page 108, ibid.)
 
"克里安(高频高壓電場)照相術" -- Kirlian photography was named after Semyon and Valentina Kirilan, a Russian (Ukrainian, to be exact) husband-and-wife team. Semyon was an electrical and mechanical jack of all trades. In 1939 whilst repairing a high-voltage machine he noticed a spark jump between the machine and his hand. Putting a sheet of photo-sensitive material in the path of this spark, he obtained a streamer-like pattern now found in Kirlian photographs, samples of which are reproduced below to show there is indeed qi "氣" or "energy" in living and non-living things. The colour photo below is a slice of fresh wholewheat bread that is full of nutritious energy.

This is the same piece, as a control, shown in black-and-white in the second photo. Now, the third photo below shows the piece of wholewheat bread "after being touched for a few seconds by a healer." (page 44, ibid.)
(A healer is simply a trained person with good intentions sending loving and healing energy to someone in need. I consider myself a qualified "healer" as I had learned (twice) all three levels of "Therapeutic Touch" or TT. This is a kind of 'energy work' developed jointly in the 1970s in North America by Dr. Delores Krieger, a professor of nursing at New York University and Dora Kunz, a natural healer. No physical contact is required; TT is based on the belief that because the patient's energy field is out of whack, this causes illness and pain, and that the energy field can be unruffled and rebalanced by a healer's excess energy. Just open your mind to 'new' things that may have escaped your notice, and you can probably use the new-found knowledge to your own advantage, especially in self-health care, martial art and for a fitter, healthier and happier YOU! More on this later, if I have the time and patience.)
  
  

Examples of Kirlian photographs of:
(A) "An apple cut in half. The gaps in the corona were not understood until a few days later when the relevant areas were seen to be bruised. (page 95, ibid.)


(B) "Feet before (on left below, lower photo) and after (right) acupuncture treatment. Note the marked change in configuration and extent of energy."  (page 101, ibid.)

(C) "The hand being used to detect the radiations (of another person's bio-energy)." (page 112, ibid.)  This simple technique is also being used in Therapeutic Touch.
