interrogation of silence
Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,
Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.

Shakespeare

Let there be light. The light of the heart. This is the start of any work – a change of mind and heart – a change from mind to heart. From an open loving heart shines a light that illuminates other hearts.
a body is less an extended mass ruled by laws of gravity and displacement than a field of happenings in which one event can overtake another

An ethic of love and excess
Nothing more stifling than safety

Heart is divine
Passion – spirit – life – intensity – movement – spontaneity – excess
Extend out of life's misery and into life's mystery
Grace fills empty spaces

Simone Weil
Tai Chi opens and explores the world of energy. It provides principles of balance, and the spirit to engage sources of energy: the Earth, the Heavens, the Other, Time, etc. It is learnt through a "Transmission of Energy" from qualified master to dedicated student. This dedication is expressed in the student's daily practice of Tai Chi, a practice that slowly gathers power and understanding.

Practice happiness

Passionately out of control
