WHAT 10 RULES DO YOU LIVE BY?
There has been considerable talk in some circles of the relevance of Yang Chen Fu's 10 Essential Principles. Some people argue that they embody the essence of living fully in the moment, whilst others put forward the theory that they are nothing but pure gobbledegook. No-one, however, has yet contributed to the debate in a way that has moved the discussion into a contemporary setting. That is, until the discovery last week of a treasure, unearthed in the forgotten dusty cellars of the teapot temple. Recorded on an old VHS tape, and now digitalised for the very first time, this new, ground-shaking perspective offers us all, the chance to reevaluate where we are going, the means of getting there, and whether by making the destination so important, we miss out on being where we are Right Now.  

FIRST EVER PUBLIC SHOWING
As the appointed archiver for the mOnks archive during his absence from the world of dust, I have taken it upon myself to release to the general public, for the first time this waist-wiggling message. As the mOnk would often say, 'tis not our role to only interpret the word, but preferably to change it.' 
So, here I present for the first time: Yang's Top 10 Tips (as re-defined by the mOnk). Enjoy and share as widely as possible. 
Yang 10 Points

  1. Stay in the back seat:
  2. Hide in Plain Site
  3. Dress with style
  4. Do Less
  5. Find a balance
  6. Look for circles
  7. Yield to Shadows
  8. Sink the Chest
  9. Keep the head up
  10. Use mind, not force
