歌訣二十七

剛柔相濟是何言，
剛柔相輔總無難。
剛柔當用乾坤手，
掀天揭地海波瀾。

"What does the mutual supporting of hard and soft mean?
There is no difficulty in the complementarity of hard and soft.
When hard and soft are used in the Qian and Kun hands,
It stirs heaven, exposes earth, and creates great waves in the ocean."

Based on the translations by 楊俊敏 Yang Jwing Ming and 梁守渝 Liang Shou You in 峨嵋八卦掌 "Baguazhang - Theory and Applications" and by Frank Allen and Tina Chunna Zhang in "The Whirling Circles of Ba Gua Zhang"
