The "bump" is the body reaction (the effect) to the pulling (or pushing) of the hands against the "lag" (the cause) driven by the pivot turn, a "hands-controlled pivot".

If you "bump" it (the cause) with the hip (instead of pulling by the hands), you get "pivot-controlled hands" (the effect).

YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.
