Good technique includes quick changes, great variety and speed. It may be a system of reversals much like a concept of God and the Devil. In the speed of events, which one is really in charge?

Bruce LeeI'm moving and not moving at all. I'm like the moon underneath the waves that ever go on rolling and rocking.

The consciousness of self is the greatest hindrance to the proper execution of all physical action.
