*laughs in Cyrillic* Are you actually strong? Always wanted to ask if you or people you know irl have been training. https://media.tenor.com/images/6ccc3f64d6257e0f426f53633c456d36/tenor.gif Martial arts and strong techniques are my childhood love~

12 Kingdoms huh. I've never heard of it but the artstyle is very interesting. But yeah, I'm not a digital artist(I should probably learn more digital art soon) but I enjoy sketching various things ranging from story concepts, stuff from anime, or video games especially the Fire Emblem series. I need to draw from life more often though... In any case, there's threads about art too? Sweet I'll check em out!

I really like this chant but I can't find a full version. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Durga_Puja_Dhak.ogg

Durga is a fierce warrior deity. I like to think Krishna and her get along well. I find it fun to believe in all the religions so I make that my belief. I wasn't raised religiously even though we come from a Muslim backround most of my family are atheists. My family came from the city so they had a more secular mindset. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4b/a8/8e/4ba88e35db845ea8259c5f723f6f355f.jpg

I would practice exercises like these a lot when I was doing pugilism. I'd perform them slowly with a focus on breathing. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xWMZvuryHd8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sHuZUhmR_gw

I practiced wing chun with a Chinese teacher who grew up in Indonesia. He was a tough instructor but I learned a lot. I was ill for the last several years so I lost a lot of my strength. Since I've been getting better I want to practice qigong again. There is a nice teacher near me originally from Shanghai. Who teaches qigong mostly based on Master Wang Xiang Zhai's zhan zhuang and his uncle's qigong that's based on Tibetan meditation. I still like pugilism but I'm more interested in meditation these days. Mentioning soft arts is for the elderly makes me think of a master's book I read on Ba Gua Zhang lamenting how younger generations see his art as an old pastime. TwT I don't know much about Peng zu except that he lived a long time. It seemstto have some sexual energy practices like Mantak Chia teaches. Five animals is really nice, very popular. I like the crane cause it's graceful. Master Yang Jwing Ming explains the difference of soft and hard arts really well in this video at 1:36. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IkdSuCgQ98E&t=188s
