Bounded Learning

[Cang Long]

CSP,
According to the great philospher Zhu Xi, Li or "principle" exists in all things. Further he taught, the only way to understand this principle was through focused study. To focus, one must define boundaries of the investigation and then learn all there is to learn within those bounds. The key is to define boundaries that truly reflect what is important and filter out what is not essential to learning. Zhu called his focus or bounds "greater learning." MKF p.50 - 56

This gives insight to both the bounds of the wing chun formula and also those of the six gate theory.

CSP,
I take it you are busy and will reply when you get a chance. In the meantime I would like to hear from some non HFY practitioners if they understand the wing chun formula. Most people mistakenly think that when speaking of the formula it would have a tendency to inhibit free flow but it does not and lau is just as much a part of HFY as any other art you may encounter. It there are non HFY members that have read about the wing chun formula and would care to share their interpretation it would be very much appreciated if they would share that here.
