   * The prostrating walk in Chine Buddhism. The monk enters a concentration or one pint-state as much as possible, faces in the direction he wishes to traverse, and lies flat on his face on the ground; when he gets up he plants his feet where his face had been when he was lying down, gathers his concentration again, and so on. It's much like the movement of an inch-worm, except that with each prostration he advances about five feet. For centuries Buddhist monks developing their vipassana concentration, or one-point attention to the present moment, would vow do to this excersice for a year, usually circumambulating a mountain with prostrations.One famous monk did this for forty years, then became a teacher of the dharma in his old age.
-The Graeta Wll Walk was based in the idea of the artists walking towards each other, in theirr early work, the pair walked toward each other over and over again with great physical concentration across a small space. in the great wall the while they converged across a fast distance, their walking invoved perhaps even more mental than physical effort.
+The Great Wall Walk (1988) was based in the idea of the artists walking towards each other, in theirr early work, the pair walked toward each other over and over again with great physical concentration across a small space. in the great wall the while they converged across a fast distance, their walking invoved perhaps even more mental than physical effort.

 their experience from the state of walking and also of being in China resulted in works which were exhibited:
-Boat Emptying, Stream Entering ; White Dragon : Standing, Red Dragon : Sitting, Green Dragon : Lying
+Boat Emptying, Stream Entering; 3 objects which the audience is asked to use until the energy is transmitted: White Dragon: stand, head resting on a quartz pillow, looking down; Red Dragon: sitting, head resting on a quartz pillow, looking straight ahead; Green Dragon: lie down, head resting on a quartz pillow, looking up.
+ The public is invited to experience physically, with their head resting on a quartz or obsidian cushion and their body in contact with the copper, the degree of energetic emanation conveyed by the materials. Starting from two opposite points, they advanced towards each other for ninety days before coming together. Entitled The Lovers , this action marked not only the end of his relationship and artistic collaboration with Ulay, but also an emotional and creative rebirth. The artist considers The Lovers not as a performance, but rather as the 'conditioning' necessary to create a new work. Boat Emptying, Stream Entering... , comes out of the  experience undergone during this journey. The legends were always about the different dragons: Green dragons/Black dragons/White dragons/Red dragons." Thus, the materials used here are  energy-laden intercessors intended to convey to the audience experience.
