		Nanquan said, “Oh, it’s too bad that you were not here at that time; you would have saved that poor cat.” So, that’s the story.

	Dharma Talk: Cease and Desist by Geoffrey Shugen Arnold Sensei (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		One of Nanquan’s students was a layman, Luxuan, who was very sincere and dedicated to his study of the dharma.
		Nanquan, hearing his student recount this dharma — which is true, but wasn’t his own truth — tries to reveal that which is real by using something real.
		He pointed at a flower in the garden and called to the officer, saying, ‘People these days see this flower as though it were a dream.’ This is like leading a man to the edge of a ten-thousand fathom cliff and giving him a push, causing his life to be cut off.

		The men's and women's Nanquan were won by competitors from China (CHEN, SHUAI and HUANG, CHUNNI respectively).
		Once again, for some frustrating reason, the Changquan had competitions in all three related events but the Nanquan was by itself (no Nandao and Nangun).
		I can't guarantee that the video is any good, but the fact that they even sell Nanquan videos is enough to warrant a mention.

		I've always felt that it was a disservice to the wide diversity of southern styles to claim to distill it down to nanquan.
		On the flip side, I don't think that any of the southern styles are in the least bit worried about nanquan overshadowing their traditional forms.
		Wing Chun is potentially bigger than all of modern wushu combined, at least outside of China.

		It used to be that the yelling in Nanquan seemed related to harnessing power, but now it seems like bad theater (=NASKA).
		anyway...it's the current wave of nanquan to have loud-***, drawn out, freaky yells.
