Bibliography, Links, Quotes, Notes, List of Movements
Research by Mike Garofalo
This Qigong form is one long continuous sequence of movements, much like a Taiji form. There are many aspects of the Wild Goose Qigong system as presented by Dr. Bingkun Hu of San Francisco.
I was practicing this Dayan form one winter morning in my Sacred Circle Garden when a flock of Canadian Geese flew overhead. The North Sacramento Valley is the winter home of birds from Canada. Behold ... 'everything is holy now':

"A second Grandfather, he of the North, spoke again:
"Take
courage, younger brother," he said, "on earth a nation you shall make
live, for yours shall be the power of the white giant's wing, the
cleansing wing."
Then
he got up very tall and started running toward the north; and when he
turned toward me, it was a white goose wheeling. I looked about me
now, and the horses in the west were thunders and the horses of the
north where geese.
And the second Grandfather sang two songs that were like this:
"They are appearing, may you behold!
They are appearing , may you behold!
The thunder nation is appearing, behold!
They are appearing , may you behold!
The thunder nation is appearing, behold!
They are appearing, may you behold!
They are appearing, may you behold!
The white geese nation is appearing, behold!"
They are appearing, may you behold!
The white geese nation is appearing, behold!"
- Black Elk Speaks, 1932, p. 22, as told to John G. Neihardt.
