Fā (发), or Issuing/Emitting, is the final, decisive action in the framework—the moment power is released to complete the neutralization of the opponent.

As an iconoclast, it's essential to state the truth of : While it is the visible action, it is merely the culmination that proves the skill achieved in the prior steps.

The Sustained Internal Connection

The structural integrity of the entire sequence is maintained by the practitioner's internal connection—their own Jìn Lù (Power Line). This connection, which gives rise to the Zero Point, must be sustained without interruption from the moment Dǒng is achieved through to the final Fā.

• The Zero Point is the fundamental structural ideal established in Huà and actively exploited first for Nà (Control) and then for Fā (Power). It is this continuity of internal connection that allows the Zero Point to be held and utilized.

The Test of True Power: Zero Feedback

The efficacy of is measured by the principle of Zero Force Feedback.

• Ineffective Power: If you feel a reactionary force coming back to you when you , it means the energy was not completely transferred to the opponent. The opponent's structure resisted, and the principle of action-reaction returned a portion of your own force, confirming a waste of energy and a structural weakness in your Nà state.

• True Power: True power feels like nothing to the practitioner. This sensation of effortlessness signifies that the energy has been completely and cleanly transferred into the opponent's compromised structure.

Fā: The Decisive Exploitation

The only way to ensure this complete energy transfer is to maintain the conditions established by the preceding steps:

• Control Must Precede Power: must be issued only after Nà has secured complete control.

• The Continued Suí: Even during the explosive release of power, the practitioner must keep the Zero Point and Suí (Follow) the whole way. The force is released not by meeting resistance, but by moving through the opponent's neutralized structure.

• The Culmination: The is the final, decisive exploitation of the Zero Point condition. If the Zero Point condition is perfectly maintained, the opponent's structure has nowhere to absorb the energy, and they are sent flying.

The true test of your is its efficiency: If your power release feels like a hard push, it is proof that Tīng, Dǒng, Huà, or Nà failed and you resorted to external strength.
