Man Scouts of America

“The Scout goes by compass, both morally and navigationally and ventures only to glean the best of the whole. Mankind is dependent on The Scout. Information is The Holy Grail. Clarity is the Treasure! In our Scouts, our Rangers, the young men of the old, Mankind instills its faith.”

-Christopher Van Hassel

Non Nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed Nomini Tuo da gloriam


“In arrogance, there is great ruin and great instability. In idleness, there is loss and dire poverty, for idleness is the mother of famine.”

Book of Tobit 4:13

“Do not keep with you overnight the wages of those who have worked for you, but pay them at once. … Be on guard, son, in everything you do; be wise in all that you say, and discipline yourself in all your conduct. Do to no man or woman what you hate yourself.”

Book of Tobit 4:14-15

A Leveled-Up Experience

There are moments when an athlete experiences this:

Not “Doing” it:

… the feeling of floating-

watching it all happen as
from the outside,
looking-in;

(Like watching a movie)

… not doing it,

but watching your body do it

and learning from it.
Chip Van Hassel

Look the Part To Be the Part

When You are pretending to be, “that”, you are, indeed, that character which you play!
While the scene is being filmed, the only reality which exists is what the camera sees.

“Look the part.
Act the part.
Be the part.

Circular Connection

Breathe-In
Moderately-Controlled

Make the aura around you flow of purple water-
It’s current- Strong,
Revolutionary of itself.
When you notice that your focus has been lost
Breathe-In
Moderately-Controlled
down through your Sacral Chakra,
Circulating the inside of the chakra;
condensing it’s
outer physical membrane.

Of a poor brotherhood, who walk the earth
Pitied.”

Mike Tyson on Fear

“’Cus used to get turned on when I told him that I was afraid and I might be a coward. He loved that. He knew that would feed into my fear base and he worked everything off fear. Cus wanted you to react like a robot so that when he said something, you’d do it on command. Cus showed me the difference between fear and intimidation. Being intimidated prevents you from performing at the highest level you’re capable of. But fear can help you ascend to great heights. ‘Be afraid of your opponent personally but don’t be afraid to hurt him,’ he told me. What people don’t realize is that when controlled properly fear can take you to a level of euphoria where you believe you’re invincible. Very few people can get to that level. But when you do, a weird aberration of nature takes place and you’re sent to a level of invincible proportion.’”

Mike Tyson

“Chakra” Definition

“Inhibition and freedom, tension and relaxation, are the tides of the orange chakra.”
-Christopher Penczak

“Chakra is Sanskrit for “spinning wheel,”
referring to the spinning wheels of light within the energy body.”

Christopher Penczak; The Inner Temple of Witchcraft (page 205)

What is Dynamic Tension?

“Dynamic Tension is the iron wire of Kung Fu, retaining the flow of Tao, as rocks give way to water, but only over time.”
-Chip Van Hassel

Dynamic Tension is a self-resistance exercise,
(or method,) which pits muscle against muscle.

The practitioner tenses the muscles of a given body part
and then
moves the body part against the tension
as if a heavy weight were being lifted

Never-Ending-River of Breath

“No need to block beyond the shoulders.”
—Master Brian Gray

“Always thinking about the River-
The unchangeable, the constant, not-judging-
forever-force.”

Dakkuan

Exercise:

Watch breath right now,
visualizing pushing the Chi down
Constantly.

This dynamic tension
is centered.
(Iron Palm,) Pushing down on the Upward chi of Earth.

Breathing is the never-ending river that orchestrates chi wherever it is instantaneously needed.

“Make the entire body solid and reactive.”

“No need to block beyond shoulders.”

Shaolin Monks’ Celibacy

As the Monk chooses celibacy,
his focus shifts.

His eyes are no longer
clouded-over
by selfish yearnings
of lust.

His newly-found perception
differs from that of the laymen’s’;

for the monk is removed from selfish ambition.
{Therefore,}

The Monk’s frequency is non-combative.

Non-combativeness
nullifies the natural,
aggressive
synapses
by which most men
are predisposed

Neuro-Muscle Memory

Mental processes induce physical processes.
Example:
Being annoyed tenses muscles.
Allowing yourself to stew in annoyance creates muscle memory which becomes physically stressful.

A Dent of Deed

…”the body, the mind, the spirit,
flows as does water.”…

It starts with the in-breath and begins in the out-breath.
The continuous cycle is it’s own revolution,
it’s own change.
Hardened by it’s own hardness,
the body, the mind, the spirit,
flows as does water.
Water can wear rock away
even though rock can stop water.
Perserverence of the flow
proves phusical changd-
Maybe just a dent,
of deed.

Chip Van Hassel

The Answer Pits Itself In The Apple.

“…If you ask for Wisdom,
God’s words are Silence…”

If you ask for strength,

He will give it to you by weakening you.
If you ask for guidance,

His guidance is usually wrought through confusion.
{DISCHORD}

If you ask for Wisdom,
His words are Silence.

Use Your Hands; Not Your Mind.

“You don’t get paid for having the idea;
you get paid for producing the Result.”
-Chip Van Hassel

“Culture is missing the Grand Power of Motivation towards the unknown-
that physical action of advancing towards fear,
pushing ourselves to our limits,
so we may therefore push ourselves beyond those limits
to create more advantageous precipices from which, thereupon, we may elevate our efforts;
for we are rewarded
with the strength, courage and some wisdom
which allows us to experience
the Great Power of Motivation
which operates the Sun and the Moon.”

Chip Van Hassel

“You don’t get paid for having the idea;
you get paid for producing the Result.”

Where Are Fellow Poor Young Soldiers Of Christ?

…However, the Poor FellowSoldiers Of Christ are not young; they are all old men with grey beards.
-Enter: The Young Tyler.
He calls himself a, P.F.S.C.,” yet he has zero poverty; he has food on his plate, shoes on his feet and a roof over his head.
Neither is nor.
They Young Tyler is Apprenticed into Entership- the state of arriving to an unfamiliar environment, thought paradigm and yet-to-be (if ever) -seen set of circumstances.
This “Entership,” is an internship into the realm of: “Void of Ego and Personal Gain,” therefore, is the most honorably practice!

Open Fist

“If your mind is like an open hand,

you will adapt quickly.

If your mind is closed like a fist,

you can only punch,

and you cannot climb the cliffs.

Train the mind as you train your fists:

condition them so they are not easily injured upon striking,

however, allow them to be open quickly

in order to grapple your opponent.”

Dakkuan

From An Old Notebook

I don’t remember who I wrote this one about:

 I remember breathing in my boots
on your barn floor.

Each suspended moment lasted more and more;
so I use that education to smell and feel right now,
this moment,
more and longer right now more.

In between the beats of a measure of the heart which never ends nor begun.
