Goa Tse (寡啧 gua3 ze2, Pinyin: Guá Zě, Wade Giles: Koa Tze) was a Taoist monk in the line of Chuang Tse (Tzu), active in the Chinese province of Yuguanzi around 455 BC. Famous for writing an early I Ching lecture book, Goa Tse was to become a key figure within Chinese philosophical thinking, and although many of the tales surrounding him are more mythological than historical, a number of facts about his life have survived.[1]

Early Life

Little is known of Goa Tse's early life. He first comes into prominence as a courtier during the reign of the Zhou Ophile Dynasty. China during the 4th Century BCE was a time of transition, with invaders from both the west and east infringing upon the kingdom's territory. It was into this maelstrom of activity that the young Goa Tse began to expound a new approach to life. Whilst meditating on the First Noble Truth of the Buddha: "Existence is suffering", Goa Tse attempted the complicated Yoga maneuver "Rabbit digs the burrow", and discovered his personal path to enlightenment.

Expansion as a Martial Artform

The Sacred Temple of Goa Tse is rumored to be somewhere in the secret, underground city of Q'ake Tu

Goa Tse realised the potential chi energy in his meditative practices could be harnessed and used for defence as well as meditation. Thus did he develop the martial art now known as Goa Tse Do or "Way of the Expanding Ring".

Goa Tse realised that energy was needlessly wasted performing the complicated forms that traditional Kung Fu training focused on. He believed that just one manoeuvre, performed correctly, could prevent a confrontation before it occurred. For the next eight years, he meditated silently on the issue of how this ultimate move could be executed, all the while performing the stretching exercises that helped to purify his thoughts.

In his eighth year of meditation, Goa Tse was disturbed by bandits who came to raid his temple. As they approached, Goa Tse calmly walked out of the front gate, turned his back to them, and lifted his ceremonial robes. The bandits apparently laughed but for a second, until Goa Tse expanded himself to his fullest extent. The story has it that the bandit leader dropped dead on the spot, whilst the others recoiled in horror and rode off vomiting profusely as have many after him.

Few Goa Tse Do practitioners are thought to exist today; however, if you really want to go there, you could probably find a few of them on the Internet. But don't say we didn't warn you.

Goa Tse Fortune Telling Methodology

Goa Tse's method for solving the fortune telling hexagram was to try to press down six coloured sticks into a narrow bottle. The number of sticks that broke told him the answer. Over time changes were incorporated into the system, first eight sticks, then ten sticks, then large projectile plugs, each having a specific meaning to the practitioner.

School of Wang

A number of schools of Goa Tse sprang up throughout Asia during the first centuries of the Current Era, but none have had as lasting an incontinent incomparable [2] effect upon the discipline as the School of Wang. Named after the Goa Tse Master Wang G'rth, the first was opened in Taiwang, and quickly spread throughout both China and the Indian Subcontinent. Soon openings to join the schools expanded, stretching from coast to canyon, enabling the study of Goa Tse to overtake Buddhism, Shinto and Fascism as the main religion of Asia.

Teh Innertubes

Testaments to Goa Tse are increasingly popular with the spread of wiki-based social networking sites such as Wikipedia, where members seeking other members post "userboxes" featuring popular adepts of Goa Tse Do. Indeed those of Conservapedia have preferred the Goa Tse style of martial art to their accustommed Christianity on at least one occasion.

Truely Goatsewin's Law states that: "As the number of edits on a wiki page increases, the probability of a Goa Tse being placed at the top approaches one."

Extract from the Goa Tse Bible

Although the original Goa Tse Bible was buried by followers of Meatspinism who are morally opposed to Goa Tse's teachings, this extract remained embedded on the wall of the Goa Tse Temple:

"AND GOA TSE DID SUMMON FORTH THE HANDS OF GOD,

THE HANDS OF GOD DID RECEIVE HIS CALL AND REACHED DEEP WITHIN HIM

AND THEY DID OPEN HIM WIDE, REVEALING THE PATH TO TRUTH AND INNER SPIRITUALITY."
