Is Qigong real?

[weiwuxian]

As Ma Baoguo...

 

[endo5x5]

Same like geomancy and astrology. Must believe 100%, then will be real.

 

[Song Bro]

because not everyone can practice. need talent.

and not everyone can advance far enough

to know if you have talent. breathe in through your nose slowly and steadily over 10 seconds. do you feel the flow of qi through your body to the dantian?

i can since young .but most are unable to pick up and feel this flow. perhaps they once could but lost this innate ability as they grow up.

especially if they smoke their lungs away

Agree, even with manuals like 太乙金华宗旨， people nowadays wouldnt even bother practising the methods inside. I suppose not only need talent 资质 but also 信念. Unfortunately, the last revolution saw many of the ancient texts being destroyed on the pretense of wiping out superstition / old thoughts. I always think the good parts of tradition should pass on to the next generation.

It is sad that most of the Chinese insights are being explored in the democratic world than the country of its origin. i.e The thousands year old meridian system is slowly being proven by the West. Very soon I believe they would made use of the understanding to revitalise traditional medicine. In the past, to be an accomplished martial artist, one needs to understand the body, the meridians before going into qigong then its application to martial arts. With the advancement in AI, the process might be shortened and angmos could well be on their path into qigong masters. Then the Chinese will as usual attempt to reclaim their heritage by stealing their efforts.

As in can use the Qi heal body etc.

Not Qigong but....

When I was 15, my stomach was in pain, my mum chanted in Japanese with her palm hovering over my naval and I can feel the heat ,suddenly there was some smelly fluid oozing out of the naval
Of course the pain was gone

Guy transfer qi to girl yes. Guy transfer to guy no need. I watch TV is like that.

when young i always play around with this inner flow of energy or qi.

also sent it flowing around my body when i took up meditation during Buddhism classes too.

but no one could teach me how to channel it properly. tried searching online but like you mentioned, the real teachings are destroyed or hidden.

nothing i can do liao. now much older le. even if some shifu come by teach me also too late liao. i guess.

Soka or something. Buddhism?

 

[jimboyboy]

Soka or something. Buddhism?

Soka is not recognized as a mainstream Buddhism group. So it can be classified a cult, even though it is not something evil.

Try reading the Pali Nikaya, it is relatively well preserved. Information are expressed directly and clearly unlike Chinese Taoist texts with secret jargons. 太乙金华has many interpretations because of that.
