Stold Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 Breakdancer is correct. The shaolin "Fa Jing" strike is performed in a manner corresponding with the article. Jing is very basically translated as "moving energy."
Drunken Monkey Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 you say 'fa jing' it is well known enough (and has been mentioned on here many times before). if you look again , he is talking about something he calls 'jeng' in any case, he still is making a convincing point about anything. he says that kick boxing isn't kung fu but then no one ever said it was. unfortunately, he uses some half arsed argument as to why it isn't that actually points to the conclusion that kick boxing is indeed kung fu. me, being a reasonable little boy, am aware that there are often little confusions between how a word is spoken and the word is 'best' spelt in english. that is why i have asked for a simple image of the charater he is talking about. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
Stold Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 Er, Fa Jing is the name of the strike. Jing and Jeng are the same thing, phonetic spelling changing on whether you're cantonese or mandarin.
Drunken Monkey Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 er, no. fa jing = release/expenditure of energy. it isn't the name of a strike. are you trying to argue about the chinese language with a chinese guy? post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
Breakdancer Posted December 7, 2003 Author Posted December 7, 2003 ok so your chinese than huh? if your chinese than why dont you know anything about kung fu? Fa jing means explosive power, i say jeng because thats how i pronounce it, english spelling doesn't matter, like saying wutang and wutan and wudang, theres no dif. Anyways that movement or strike is jing! yes it described a a strike but that strike, how it was issued described jing, if your so chinese you should knwo something about authentic kung fu
Drunken Monkey Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 actually in cantonese, it's 'mo dong'. and if you're going on about how it's pronouced then it's more like 'ging' (g as in get) no. 'fa jing' means release/expenditure of energy/strength/force. explsove power would be 'bao ja lik'. just because i'm chinese does not mean i know anything about kung fu. in fact i know absolutely nothing about the subject. which still seems to be more than you know. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
Stold Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 Man, I already got to ask a monk these questions. Fa Jing isn't a strike, but shaolin monks use a certain posture and movement to attain fa jing, hence my "fa jing" strike simplization. What kind of chinese do you speak Drunken Monkey?
Drunken Monkey Posted December 7, 2003 Posted December 7, 2003 born and raised on cantonese. a bit of mandarin cos the guys in my aunt's kitchen only speaks mandarin. and a few things in hokien (from one of my floor mates in uni but mostly it's how to curse at people...) as for 'fa jing'. it is a complicated thing, how chinese works i mean. technically, 'fa jing' isn't the name for a movement, it's more like a name for A WAY of moving. or if you like it is the name of the result of a way of moving. make sense? in case you're interested, the second section of the sil lim tao is called 'fa jing' post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
Breakdancer Posted December 8, 2003 Author Posted December 8, 2003 i dont care you dont know anything about kung fu, fa jing is explosive power, of course its a certain way of moving, its a certain way to issue energy, in the article he described a move with fa jing, your such a dumbass, you just stated you dont kno anything about kung fu so why are you trying to tell me you kno about jing, its a kung fu principle i'm not even going to listen to you because i already know your wrong. my teacher pronounces it as Jeng thats how i would spell it, hes from taiwain,
Breakdancer Posted December 8, 2003 Author Posted December 8, 2003 screw what i just wrote, ok, nomatter what you tell me jeng or jing or fa jing means explosive power, its not a move, its a technique in which you apply to any move, kung fu has to have it or its not kung fu
