But yeah, you go with the flow. Every part of your movement flows continuously nonstop. Never stopping.

Even though I like Jet Li, I really wouldn't use a movie as a reference to a meditation technique or specific martial art. It's best to go to a dojo/school and learn from masters.

yeah i know referring to movies are not the best but it did give me a glimpse
of what tai chai is.. But when it comes to meditation you also have to do that on your own time not just the time when you are at martial arts class. I'm not sure how long you're suppose to meditate but try to reach enlightenment think of nothing and be nothing while you are at it, I'm pretty sure you heard that. When you reach enlightenment you can go deeper and you can experience great stuff not sure what it is but I heard this from other people.

yeah because it's kinda like lucid dreaming, you get into a state of innate consciousness

As far as I'm concerned, I've been meditating my own way since I was a preteen. lol. I never liked the times we took to meditate. It wasn't that often though, actually kinda rare. Weirdly, enlightenment is not a priority at all for me now. I could care less for it. o.O

I know em... some of my friend's have been to it... but I wouldn't say Sufi, Sufi its a spiritual style of practicing Islam that can be applied to both Shia, Sunni, Ibadi etc etc etc... It came from this bro in Turkey 1000 years back who ment that Islam shouldn't only be something you practice, but also meditate over, get on spiritual level with it and so on... just putting it out there...
