Hatred
How does one overcome hatred? By non-hatred. One does not put out fire with fire. Yin overcomes yang and yang overcomes yin. Hatred is like drinking salt water in that our thirst only becomes worse. What can be gained by hating something or someone?

As the student progresses through the phases of Tai Chi, he will find Tai Chi has many detailed areas of study that assist in understanding the lessons. For example, there are many different ways to breathe according to the desired result. The student will learn to use different parts of the body, some apparently unrelated to breathing at all, during breathing cycles. During all of these phases the student will experience improved health in the form of increased energy and sense of well being.
