008: Fa Jin from the 100 important points on Taijiquan pushing hands

放劲时，手动幅度不过五寸，然后由大收小，惟意要愈长，眼神要愈看得远，久练之，其劲自足，不必手长足长也。露禅大师发人仅用分毫劲，故时不见其手动，而对手已跌出。

When releasing your Jin (Fa Jin), don’t move your hands more than 5 inches – start with a lengthy posture and work your way down to a short one. However, you must cast your gaze far away. After a long period of training, your Jin will be full, and you will not need to make any large movements with your hands and feet.
