Huang Zongxi Neijiaquan's Enlightenment to Taiji Practitioners: "Nei"

350 years ago, Huang Zongxi first named the fist that was handed down in the Siming Generation as "NeijiaQuan" in the "Epitaph of Wang Zhengnan", which seems to be different from the Taijiquan system, but Taiji, Shape, and Bagua are called Neijia, and the three schools are all prominent in form, so Kung Fu must come out of the human physiological system. Huang Zongxi's "Epitaph of Nan Lei Wending Wang Zhengnan": "Shaolin is famous for its fist and courage in the world, but the lord is in the fight, and people can also take advantage of it." There are so-called inner families, with static braking, and the offender should be a servant, so don't make Shaolin the inner family. "Just a glimpse of it.

Huang Zongxi "fine stabbing", "good fist method", Qing soldiers went south, resisted the Qing defeat and returned to Yuyao, and was invited to ningbo Baiyunzhuang to give a lecture. After the defeat of the army, Wang Zhengnan returned to Tong'ao in Baozhu, Ningbo, and lived in seclusion in the countryside, hoeing the ground all day long to collect dung. After Huang Zongxi and Wang Zhengnan got acquainted, they had "narrated their origins". This shows that Wang Zhengnan has a lineage.

Wang Zhengnan lives in Ningbo Baodong Tong'ao Village, Houshan Tiefo Temple for more than 700 years of history, for Wang Yinglin's family temple, Wang Zhengnan's boxing to "static braking, the offender should be a servant", "all beaters are their death pits", indicating that this system is extremely close to the Chinese medicine system, following the strict yin and yang five elements and the law of spirit and spirit, which is both the mechanism of "inside". That is to say, Wang's Inner Fist pays more attention to "Inner". It is different from the various "fists and weapons" that followed. The mechanism of "internal strength" and "internal strength" is completely reflected in the internal mechanism of the spirit of Chinese medicine when it comes to the god of "internal reaction".

1, the stage of internal martial arts - therefore, in the cultivation system, neijiaquan appeared to be almost exactly the same as taijiquan method, of course, the fitness foundation of taijiquan is suitable for ordinary people, in the later stage of neijiaquan, taijiquan is more like neijiaquan, but the shape is moving towards "fierceness", "bagua" to "fighting", taijiquan experts begin to enter the waist vertical ridge, qi into the bone (bagua is also the same), began to guard the dantian (the shape of the meaning also enters the inner family, otherwise go to the grid), to this stage, Dantian Kung Fu is to produce a Ren pulse cycle with the cerebellum, and then begin to stand on the pile into the fixed inner strength of the fist - "virtual collar top strength, qi sink Dantian", into the first layer of kung fu in the inner family - the seven styles of harmony gong. Tai Chi Chuan here many people stagnated, lack of spirit, health care is important. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to select materials for neijiaquan.

2, the stage of internal strength martial arts - in the second stage, it is precisely the "internal force" that the taijiquan master says is "not focused". The internal force comes from the kung fu accumulated in Dantian, the dantian internal qi gradually rises, along the two ear sides, the three lines of the spine converge to the brain, some people call it "three flowers gathering the top", the five qi chaoyang, in fact, is the full pulse, the body is soft, the inner fist of the middle power and the five elements of plum blossom pile, forming a "deep, long, thin, slow, uniform, soft" breath, Dantian "belly solid chest width" state, requiring "domination of the waist". Kung Fu has reached the point of "attacking is what should be done, and keeping it is without gaps." Strength through the four branches", however, at this stage, the most taboo fight, avoid alcohol, and even need drug assistance. Many animals are raised in dantian, and they will fight hard at the moment of life and death.

"Stand by and wait for the opportunity", be calm and calm when dealing with the enemy, and be not afraid of danger. For example, the "Ningbo Fuzhi Zhang Songxi Biography" said: "Songxi sits with his hands in his sleeve, a monk jumps to kick, Songxi slightly sideways, raises his hand to send it, and his monks are like flying pills, falling downstairs, killing several times, and the monks are shocked." One of the moves used by Zhang Songxi here is the "discarded object throwing first" of Neijia Fist.

However, the folk inheritance of power has a fixed step force, a back forehand force, a step forward force, a step forward force, a live step force, etc., and then gradually transition to walking at any time to exert force, the body turns at will, and should be hit by hand. The inner family boxing training is a phase of three months, and within one period, through the training, the power above the waist is reached, and ordinary students can split a red brick with their bare hands. After six months of reaching above the knee, you can split half a red brick with your bare hands. With the increasing strength of the power, the power is also more and more free, short distance strong explosion, strong use of strength. (Ningbo Xiamen Heritage) This place seems to be similar to the Shape Yi Fist. It is very different from Zhang Songxi's record and is debatable.

3. The stage of inner cultivation of martial arts - this stage is the deity, which is close to Zen Buddhism. This stage is the "middle pulse" pass, kung fu begins to sense heaven and earth, and the kung fu at this stage is the real home. The changes in the body are completely natural and smooth, and there is no reaction to the loss of kung fu until death, and it can even have intelligence beyond ordinary people. Huang Zongxi wrote in his epitaph that Wang Zhengnan looked like a rough person on the outside, but he was very principled in doing things and acted low-key: "After being passed on, he will never show his horns, and he will not send it unless he is in great difficulty." The ancient tradition of the Inner Family Boxing Beginner's Entry says: "To learn boxing, we must first behave in virtue, respect and humility in everything and do not argue with others, and we are upright and gentlemen." Learning boxing should not be easily revealed to others. It is advisable to learn boxing to work hard in the quiet place, and it is not appropriate to show off the exquisite and exaggerated skills in front of people in order to spur efforts. ”

Therefore, today, when Taijiquan reaches the level of internal cultivation, there are many external and external paths, and the inheritance of internal families is difficult, which is the article again and again, which combines taijiquan and inner family. Today, it seems that the Taijiquan system is the closest to the system of Neijia Kung Fu, and the "Five Styles of Taiji", the five schools of Taijiquan, have each explored their own internal traditions, and Taijiquan should widely absorb traditional culture and create a great revival of our national essence, which Wang Zhengnan and Huang Zongxi expect is exactly such a inheritance.
