Anyway, back on topic.

I didn't know how far into the discipline of Psychiatry these concepts had penetrated. The author's wife has apparently written a book on the most common variations of the techniques. I'll look for a torrent. Also, now that we have the label that Psychiatry assigns this phenomena ("Energy Psychology"), we can look for more sources.

But this is honestly only one part of the whole thing. Energy Psychology only covers this one technique. It doesn't delve into the rest of psychosomatics.

Somebody PM me around thanksgiving, and I'll get my brothers university password out of him so I can go trolling through psychinfo for stuff on Psychosomatics.

The ideas are good. Sometimes it's hard to create personal methods and techniques from such ideas.

Isao Machii - Cutting BB pellet with Iaigiri (Sheathed Draw Cut)


They've got a specialist in perception on to view the slow motion footage, and she says something that really jumped out at me.

"This is about processing at an entirely different sensory level, because he's not visually processing. This is... this is a different level of... Anticipatory Proccessing, something so procedural... so fluid for him..."

And that's where they cut her off.

This has gotten my head wrapped around some more of the Chi experience... I have to integrate this with the previous material, tho. More later.

Isn't that an airsoft pellet? Aren't airsoft pellets fired a lower velocity?
In any case, to me, it seems that he is indeed anticipating where it is going to be and would presumably already be in motion when the pellet reaches where his sword will be. It is an impressive feat.

It occurs to me that if swordsmanship = magickque > bullets, then that explains why Perry was unable to make any headway in Japan, which is why they're still a feudal state.

:lulz:
Only if Perry had been armed with airsoft pistols.
This reminds me of that show that fired an M2 at a fixed katana, and using highspeed photography were WOWED that a piece of hardened steel cut pieces of lead traveling at highspeed.
I mean him cutting a pellet out of the air is impressive, but he knew where the pellet was coming from, and it was only one pellet, and is traveling at drastically slower velocities than firearms. This is like the videos of the man catching arrows out of the air, or cutting them out of the air.

Well, we've talked quite a bit in this thread about the involvement of muscle memory in muscle control. I think, if this stuff isn't doctored, that it fits in quite nicely with this idea.
