Message Creator	Topic: MAGNIFICATION AND CLASSICAL MEDITATION
Chee Gay Wong Registered on 7/10/2005 8:27:58 AM	Dear Instructors, I have always practice magnification immediately after classical meditation. As I understand it, magnification is meant to supplement classical meditation so I was wondering whether it is best to practice magnification before or after classical meditation as I practice both in one session. Thanks for your time and attention. Message was created on 11/28/2005 7:50:15 PM

When we say the magnification is supplemental to classic meditation, which implies classic meditation is the core of Taiji Five-element qigong, practitioner should focus on this form and repeat it, while magnification is just a supplementary, one a day or twice a day before classic meditation should be enough. Remeber, you need only close once at the end if you practice multiple forms continuously. Hope this helps. Have a great holiday season! Message was created on 12/23/2005 12:31:41 AM
