Just one Chinese character is missing: \u635e (l\u0101o): to scoop.<\/p>\n<p>I wondered: is the move really about something impossible to find?

None of them mentioned the Chinese saying, but I found three different stories.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A magic staff the size of a needle<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3V6duzD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Anatomy of Fitness<\/a>* mentions an old Chinese story about a magical staff that could be made as small as a needle. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4AxXCGe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">How to Grasp the Bird\u2019s Tail<\/a>* tells the full story. It comes from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Journey_to_the_West\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Journey to the West<\/a> (X\u012b Y\u00f3u J\u00ec), where the Monkey King finds his perfect weapon at the bottom of the Eastern Sea:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Monkey found this to be the perfect weapon because he could use his magic powers to shrink it from its twenty foot length to two feet for fighting, and then to the size of a needle to stick behind his ear.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4AxXCGe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">How to Grasp the Bird\u2019s Tail if You Don\u2019t Speak Chinese by Jane Schorre, page 60<\/a>*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I like the idea of a staff that can change its size. But honestly, I am not sure how it connects to the move itself.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sea bottom as a place on the body<\/h3>\n<p>The second story is a martial one. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3V6duzD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Anatomy of Fitness<\/a>* mentions that \u201csea bottom\u201d refers to the lower part of the opponent\u2019s body. The intent must be strong enough to pick up a needle even from the depths of the sea. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4yXkRHZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Tai-Chi Postures<\/a>* goes into more detail:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>This cavity-point can only be reached by poking deeply into the bladder, which is considered to be the ocean, in that it is full of water. The hand is the needle, which inserts until the bottom of the ocean is reached.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4yXkRHZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Tai-Chi Postures &amp; Internal Power Enhancement by Xu Yu-Sheng and Bradford Tyrey, pages 51-53<\/a>*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Chinese name of the move is H\u01cei D\u01d0 Zh\u0113n. And H\u01cei D\u01d0 is actually also an alternative name for the acupuncture point Hu\u00ec Y\u012bn. H\u01cei D\u01d0 means sea bottom, and Hu\u00ec Y\u012bn means Meeting of Y\u012bn. The point sits at the perineum, at the very base of the torso. In Q\u00edn N\u00e1, the martial art of seizing and locking, it is even listed as a <a href=\"https:\/\/steve-woodley.co.uk\/Point+Notes?point=Ren-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cavity striking point (d\u01ce xu\u00e9)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A needle in the depths of the sea<\/h3>\n<p>The third story is very different and more poetic. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4AxXCGe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">How to Grasp the Bird\u2019s Tail<\/a>* tells a story about a very special needle:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>There was once an old Daoist monk who was known for his skill at embroidering. People who came to admire his work would often ask him to teach them the secret of his ability to create such beauty. He always told them, \u201cI can only show you what my hands do. I can not show you the Golden Needle that produces them. You must find that for yourself.\u201d The Golden Needle is found at the bottom of the sea \u2013 in the deep reservoir that is the source of all creativity.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4AxXCGe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">How to Grasp the Bird\u2019s Tail if You Don\u2019t Speak Chinese by Jane Schorre, page 60<\/a>*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I love the image of an embroidery needle. It is small and very precise. That\u2019s how the move feels to me: small and precise, because Needle at Sea Bottom is not the most flashy move in the form.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pricking, not stabbing<\/h2>\n<p>Actually, in the book <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4yXkRHZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Tai-Chi Postures<\/a>*, there is also a different take on the needle. The authors distinguish the different parts of the move, they named the second part \u6d77\u5e95\u9488\u523a (h\u01cei d\u01d0 zh\u0113n c\u00ec): Ocean Bottom Needle Stabs.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Ci refers to pricking something, as if with a needle. Stabbing is somewhat suitable in its meaning but, Master Fu [F\u00f9 Zh\u014dngw\u00e9n] explained that pricking is a penetrating action that is very precise, containing no brutish force.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4yXkRHZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">Tai-Chi Postures &amp; Internal Power Enhancement by Xu Yu-Sheng and Bradford Tyrey, pages 51-53<\/a>*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So again, Needle at Sea Bottom is not a big or stabbing move, but small and precise. Pricking also makes clearer that the fingers point toward the bottom. Very precise, but still powerful and pushing through.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What I learned without finding the answer<\/h2>\n<p>So basically, I am still not sure where the name Needle at Sea Bottom comes from. But it was fascinating to learn about the Chinese phrases and stories. Maybe you know more about it?
