One of the best, and most frustrating, things that I have been realizing is that I have to STOP DOING this stuff to approximate the models. It's also that most liberating things. This is not some amazing insight that I have had. This is simply the teaching as given by sifu. But, I am hard headed and overly ambitiousto try to produce some effect. I thought that was the thing because other systems use that approach. This is the very thing that sifu is pointing at that makes any system with that approach are "dead ends". Not that they don't produce skills. But that they are still in the realm of voluntary movement. It's a skill. It's not the wholesale reordering your "unconcious" posture. The UCB is a program that, if followed as prescribed, does reorient us to posture that is not imposed upon by our culture, personality, or social cues. That's powerful. It makes sense that this will take YEARS as opposed 100 days of training to get to a certain accomplishment. What an endeavor!
