Awesome! Thank you.
I don't get the impression Graham would mind...and I apologize if I am mistaken, Graham, but in the name of science...
Short "In Thread" Survey:
Q1: Do you believe it when people associated with the I.P. (Internal Power) and "Aiki" phenomenon on this forum claim "it has to be felt" (IHTBF) in order to understand it?
Yes
...but I want to qualify that I believe "IHTBF" in order to have a
functional understanding...amazing flukes of genius notwithstanding.
Q2: Can you prove one way or the other if they are right or wrong about their claim that IHTBF?
Yes
Q3: Regardless of your answer to the previous question, please indicate how you can prove IHTBF right or wrong one way or the other:
(select any that apply in order of preference -- delete any that do not apply)
- Direct hands on training (feeling)
- Indirect training (e.g.:training with someone who has trained directly with them)
Q5. Do you have any other comments?
Indirect training can prove it has to be felt, but I presume whatever they're developing is less developed than who ever they're training with, so the proof is less pronounced.
