S2 E1 - The "True" Method
The Taichi and Qigong Podcast - A podcast by The Taichi and Qigong Podcast

Many people seem to believe that there is a "true" method, be it in Internal Arts or Martial Arts or Meditation as well. This idea would hint at a reality were past (often very past) Masters would have discovered a true method, and that our goal is to gain access to that true method via the relation with a correct lineage knowledgeable master. Tradition and access to it is a key factor in traditional practices, but for good or for bad, there is not such thing as a true method, no less than there is a true hip-hop. The idea of a true method always serves the purpose of disqualifying other schools or teachers, and is a delusional idea based on Ego.
