拙作「騎馬步要領」（以下簡稱「騎文」）在2001年發表於「台灣武林」第六期，四年來輾轉流傳，引起一些注意和討論，有些同好反應：「此文偏重在下半身襠的筋路連結，那麼上半身如何呢？」，事實上上半身的筋路系統比下半身複雜多多，不容易說明白，但是既然有人不恥下問，我只好野人獻曝，略提一下個人的心得，一來對求知者做個交代，二來也算是增補「騎文」的續集吧。

Image and action are two separate things
When in earlier times I studied ‘Later stage Bagua Quan’ my master often said “Image and action are two separate things ”. For a long time I didn’t understand. Afterwards I gradually caught some of the meaning and then passed over the threshold of ‘Later stage Bagua Quan’.
