Qi (Chi) Training

The teaching style we are familiar with in our
Western civilization is based on books and lectures and laboratory work that
teach our brains facts about the things that make up our world. Our Science
rejects as “Quackery” any talent it cannot analyze and perform itself regardless
of whether someone else can make it work. Science cannot imagine awareness
independent of the brain in the head.
(8) Eastern teaching style focuses on training the
student how to “work the system as a whole” to accomplish the desired results.
It is like learning to get music from a piano without bothering to know details
of its construction. Eastern based religions like Christianity teach that there
are other centers of awareness besides the brain and many westerners accept that
in religion.

Qi (Chi) Training is taught
in the Eastern style like an art of doing! Traditional teachers never answer
questions which encourage brain activity. Instead they teach meditation
techniques which bypass brain chatter and brain involvement while still keeping
their student awake and aware. This quieting is necessary to help the student
shift awareness to engage the subtle chi-genome mind. Traditional moving
exercises have been perfected by master teachers to help students begin moving
in harmony with this mind which is always in motion. This is a form of
experiencing something new by induction. Moving and meditation must be practiced
simultaneously, so the technique is called Moving
Meditation.
Most
importantly, genuine teachers use Qi (Chi) to induce the ”knowing” in their students.
They generate strong Qi (Chi) fields that they project into the students when the
students have done their work to make themselves open. The inducted experience
is what the student is trying to learn to feel, so the trained teacher saves the
student a lot of time and effort. As the feeling becomes more clearly “known”,
the student can begin to invoke it himself by intention.

Meditation is an eastern skill. One technique is to become disinterested and
emotionally unattached to any thought your brain presents to you as it flows in,
through, and out of awareness. Also practice to leave a very small token part of
your awareness there as a quiet shadow witness to keep your brain from falling
asleep or into a trance. Then most of your awareness is free to explore
expansion.
(11) Remember to entirely forget this “mental paper”
when “Doing Qi (Chi) Training”. Persistently pay complete awareness to your immediate
experience and to your teacher. Only this helps you
progress.
(12) The persistent training is the price to pay.
Gradual accomplishment empowers better health and a longer better life and that
is the worthwhile goal for most people. The collective subconscious is also
large enough to offer many additional amazing but natural human abilities that
can be developed by almost anyone who makes sufficient
effort.
