Tai Chi as the ultimate life force.
"in the imagery of the moon and sun, the two are brought together, since the light of the moon is but solar light refelcted. By analogy, our body's life is eternal life, reflected, and our body's consciousness, eternal consciousness, only modified by the limitations of our mind's logical manner of dualistic thinking..."
--Joseph Campbell
The moon doesn't shed its own light--it just reflects light. And we as individuals are like the moon because we reflect the ultimate life force, the combined life force of the universe. This ultimate life force is also known as the Tai Chi.
As Joseph Campbell implies, you may not be aware of this unity, but we are all ultimately connected to this life force whether we know it or not.
Mindful, meditative practice of the Tai Chi form can help you gain awareness of your connection to the Ultimate Oneness.
