"Qigong" has been circulating in China for thousands of years, and it has been circulating ever since. In recent years, it has been widely popularized, mastered by most people and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It can be said that it is well known to women and children.

Although "Qigong" has been widely popularized, more and more people practice it and know it, but not many people really know it.

At present, there are many schools of Qigong in the society, and various techniques have mushroomed. Although there are thousands of schools in summary, there are no more than two schools, Buddhism and Taoism, and of course a few can be attributed to Confucianism. As far as its refinement effect is concerned, the Spring and Autumn Period is also different. So he drew a picture of "Qigong" for people. No matter in the park, in the yard, or even on the sidewalk, people practice in the morning and evening everywhere. Everyone knows at a glance that this is practicing "Qigong". It seems that this is Qigong. This is the general concept of "Qigong".

What is Qigong?

What is "Qigong" seems to have been recognized by people, and there is no longer the question of what is "Qigong". Actually, it is not, as people understand "health". Generally speaking, people think that they are strong and have no pain. This is called "health". However, medical professionals have a deeper understanding of "health". Strong muscles and strong bones and muscles are only signs of health, and they are also the least or most obvious signs.

But the whole meaning of "health" is not limited to this, it also includes psychological and intellectual health.

"Qigong" people have a deeper understanding of health: a sound mind, a strong maintenance system and a strong resistance function are even more important signs of "health". The ancients called these aspects "foundation" or "Ji Xian and Gu Dao". This is an invisible health signal, but it can be reflected in many ways.

The word "Qigong" is a modern general term, which is different from gymnastics. This word first appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty. After liberation, Mr. Liu wrote a pamphlet "How to Practice Qigong", which introduced the basic theory and common sense of Qigong to the public in popular language for the first time. The use of the word "Qigong" has played an advocacy role in the popularization of "Qigong" and made immortal contributions to the popularization and development of "Qigong" in China.

The word "Qigong" appeared because the ancients always called the internal parts of the human body, the operation of meridians and the functions of viscera "Qi". The practice of "Qigong" is to mobilize the operation of the "true" system of the human body, make it strengthen the circulation of qi and blood, balance the functions of yin and yang and viscera, and realize the function of eliminating diseases and prolonging life. What's more, it is called "Qigong" because people who practice Qigong can do some kung fu (including special functions).

The word "Qigong" was once quoted as a proper noun by the martial arts community. Because Wushu pays attention to luck, it is called Qigong.

The word "qigong" covers the luck of martial arts and the cultivation method of "internal strength", which is a recent thing. This term is both vivid and easy to understand, so it is widely used.

In order to distinguish it from the breath of the nose and mouth, the word "true qi" was later renamed "true".

What is Qigong? Many people have different understandings. To sum up, its * * * is nothing more than the same characteristics. It is a skill that is started by adjusting shape, heart and qi, and is called "Qigong".

Looking at China's Qigong, there are not only routine exercises with complete movements, but also the guidance of spontaneous movements, as well as static exercises of sitting and guarding (including sitting cross-legged, sitting still, standing still and lying still), as well as luck, breathing and breathing techniques. So the achievement method is divided into different ways:

First, from the dynamic and static situation of modeling, it can be divided into "dynamic work" and "static work".

Second, according to the law of action, it can be divided into conventional power work and self-starting work.

Third, exhalation-exhalation is different from pranayama, and pranayama is characterized by both mouth and nose.

Four, viscera function-heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, stomach and so on. , the achievement method of each division.

Fifth, the idea work-guiding the meridian operation with ideas.

Six, China has had Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism since ancient times. These skills are in the hands of a few people, namely Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. So qigong is divided into Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

Seven, because the martial arts world pays attention to the external training of bones and muscles and the internal training of spirit, its main feature is endless strength, which can break gold and stone. So it is also called hard qigong, or external work. And static work is called internal work, or soft qigong. So from the inside out, the difference between soft and hard is divided into:

(1) Hard Qigong (External Skill)

(2) Soft Qigong (internal strength)

With the above classification, it also reflects everyone's understanding of "Qigong". Has it explained what "Qigong" is? Don't!

Some people think that Tai Ji Chuan should belong to boxing, not to Qigong routine practice, and should not be included in routine practice.

Some people think that the luck of Wushu can only be enhanced by luck. It is different from the movement of mobilizing the "true qi" to run in the body. It is also different from internal skill, and it should only be called martial arts.

Of course, this is the opinion of a few people, not enough to represent the majority. But at least it shows that people have different views on what is the standard of "Qigong" and indirectly reflects that there are different understandings of the connotation of "Qigong". This problem still exists.

There are many objections from Buddhists and Taoists, who think that it is not appropriate to include it in "Qigong". Practice is different from Qigong, which is more profound and mysterious than Qigong. It seems that the practice is called "Qigong", which reduces the purpose of the practice. In their eyes, "Qigong" is just a trivial gymnastics activity. Put forward the problem that practicing Qigong is different from practicing Qigong.

It seems that to understand this problem, we must first start with what is the standard for measuring "Qigong". Analyze from the following aspects:

First, the method of exercise.

At present, in many methods, there is a problem of shape, heart and breath at the beginning of exercise, which is also the basic feature of "Qigong" different from general gymnastics exercise.

Many exercises are to exercise the posture of the body, or to stand, sit, cross-legged, lie on your back, lie on your side, or even do a certain hand posture with your hands. This is called handprint. Then calm down and start to adjust your breathing luck. Some people don't follow this procedure, but carry out shape modulation, heart modulation and atmosphere modulation at the same time or cross. That is, informal, and the body shape of pranayama has also changed. In the process of body shape change, the mood tends to be calm. After pranayama, you will enter the state of fetal interest and automatically enter silence. Gu belongs to this kind of achievement method.

In the process of starting to work, I started to work standing, and then I spontaneously changed to sitting position instead of being dominated by people's subjective will. Or this is a free cross-legged, and gradually transformed into a single cross-legged, or double cross-legged.

Gymnastics, on the other hand, uses movements to change breathing, not breathing to change movements. Action requires no thought or effort, just routine.

Martial arts (boxing) also means that breathing changes with movements, and pronunciation exerts strength. Sometimes, the mind sinks the abdomen, sucks the wind to the roots, or sucks the wind to a certain part. This is the difference between martial arts and gymnastics. Armor training in gymnastics only uses strength, not strength.

However, in recent years, in sports, martial arts training methods and "Qigong" cooling methods have been cited. It's not exactly the same as qigong. Many people who practice martial arts practice Qigong at the same time. However, most of them are refined by breathing and breathing, and less by internal work.

Judging from the characteristics of shape adjustment, heart adjustment and qi adjustment, it should be listed as one of the symbols of "Qigong" and the most basic symbol.

Second, the dynamic-static relationship.

"Qigong" has a method of meditation and meditation that gymnastics and martial arts do not have. But in Wushu, standing piles are built on the basis of standing well. Italian boxing is the representative of this kind of achievement method. The standing posture in qigong is the starting posture of dynamic work. In the self-starting work, sometimes there will be a standing posture, which will last for a certain time. Italian boxing is classified as internal boxing because it is not based on external skills, but on internal skills.

Any exercise method with internal exercises is also called "internal exercises". Relatively speaking, hard qigong in martial arts is also called external work.

It seems that static kung fu is characterized by internal movement, which should be regarded as one of the signs of "Qigong".

So should routine exercises and self-starting exercises be included in the category of "Qigong"? I am afraid this can only be distinguished from whether it is "internal movement".

Third, "internal movement"

What kind of exercise is called "internal movement"?

The meridians of the human body are constantly moving in the body. No matter what you do, the internal movement of meridians will not change. This kind of external action is no different from gymnastics and boxing. It can only be called "internal movement".

Self-priming work is different from ordinary external movement, and it is not a variety of actions made by people's subjective consciousness. It is an external action caused by "real" operation and obstacles in the body. It is completely different from the actions made by the brain (that is, subjective consciousness) and has essential differences.

It can be seen that "internal strength" should be listed as the symbol of "Qigong".

Fourth, "truth" and "truth" operation.

Internal movement refers to the dynamic movement produced by the "true" operation in the body. What is the "truth" of human body? This is a question that must be answered.

Is "truth" the same as human meridians? What's the difference? "Truth" is a colored line ejected from the body "Yuan" after the differentiation of Yin and Yang into Taiji. This line is radioactive, and it contains "yuan" and various genes in the essence of diet.

The development of a baby in a mother's body is an innate process of human development. During this period, the essence of diet shifted from the mother to the baby's Tai Chi center, thus being included in the "truth". After the baby is born, he suckles himself, and the delicate diet transformed from other foods is transported to the Taiji Center to supplement the "truth".

An accomplished qigong master can observe the whole process of human development in the functional state of qigong.

A baby starts from one point of the embryo (i.e. the primordial qi), and under the influence of the mother's gestation, the primordial qi sends out two spirals of yin and yang (i.e. yin and yang), which converge in the center of the abdomen and change into a Taiji diagram. For the formation process of Taiji, please refer to the book Yi Cong Physiological Image.

"Truth" refers to the emission of two different kinds of rays from the embryo point to the Tai Chi center (with

Yin and Yang are not exactly the same). Then meet at the "five-center point" and send out many rays respectively. At the end of these rays, important organs such as internal organs and internal organs develop and form.

Judging from this, "truth" is composed of substances needed to generate viscera. In other words, "truth" is the lifeline that provides the generated matter. "Truth" can not only generate viscera, but also maintain viscera. When the viscera is damaged, "truth" assumes the function of repairing the viscera. It can also be said that "truth" is the "supply line" for human development, and it is also the maintenance system for maintaining various organs and parts of the human body (including tendons, bones, skin, meat, …). ).

"Qigong" exercise is to improve and enhance the maintenance function of the "truth" system, so it can strengthen the body, eliminate diseases and prolong life.

Usually the so-called alchemy needs to mobilize the "real operation". The so-called traffic here is not simply to promote its operation (it has been running). It is more important to improve its ingredients to enhance its maintenance function, thus improving the human body's own immunity.

The so-called improvement is to increase certain substances that cannot be completely absorbed from food. The "rare substances" needed by the human body must be ingested from different heights, depths and breadth of the universe.

These substances include compound elements and various genetic materials needed by human organs. Chemical elements are organic substances that produce life, and the existence of these substances can be observed from scientific tests. The other material belongs to the "intangible material" of temperament and metaphysics. We might as well call these substances "rare substances" or "information bodies".

"Information body" is not the same as "rare substance". "Rare substance" refers to the substance that cannot be absorbed in food, and it is an unstable element. Even so far, it has not been found. Substances found only in other stars or at different heights in the universe.

"Information body" refers to the "wisdom gene" gradually formed in human evolution, which is as vague as information. At present, it cannot be observed by scientific methods. Not just from parents' bodies.

The "wisdom gene" also includes the "human wisdom" of ancient people and present people. It is a "micro-terminal body" with full information nature, and it is the source of human innate and acquired consciousness.

The "information body" also includes genetic genes such as personality, physique and disease passed on from parents to babies.

"Information body" is not only the wisdom gene of human consciousness, but also the guiding factor that determines the development of human posture and personality, and is the "sexual substance" of human body.

By the way, the geometric figures that appear in the functional state-Tai Chi, Eight Diagrams and so on. People, animals, landscapes, trees and Buddha statues are all images of "sexual substances" in the human body. In order to understand these strange visions scientifically, don't fall into old superstitions. The correct view is not that qigong has entered superstition, but that superstition has arisen because of the inability to correctly understand these phenomena.

Life is a combination of sexual matter and living matter. As the ancients said, life is at stake. Because of this, both are indispensable.

Practitioners advocate "double cultivation of life", which is the purpose of practice. Or the main direction, its purpose is to transform the human body structure to achieve longevity. And have superhuman "special functions".

Generally, qigong exercise can only improve life, Buddhism focuses on the improvement of sex, and Taoism advocates "double cultivation of life"

From this perspective, mobilizing the operation of "truth" should be a more important symbol of "Qigong".

To realize the cultivation of "double cultivation" or "sex", it is necessary to make the "truth" of the human body come out of the body and communicate with the universe. It is the cycle between human body and celestial body, which is called "Sunday". Not just forcing the governor to run.

Meridian is another part of the "truth" system, which is the distribution and transmission system of life elements and does not have the meta-function of "truth".

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Sunday

Du Ren walked fifty times on the rotation day of human body.

Therefore, "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Classic A and B" says: "Qi travels in the body for 50 times, and the water descends for 100 minutes on the 28th night, and the pulse is exhausted", which means that it has been known to travel for 50 times.

It is known that "Sunday" does not refer to the governor, nor does it refer to the calendar of one week and twelve hours. The so-called "Sunday" flows with the days. Is to know that the antenna is "real" and not the supervisor.

Du meridian can't communicate with Ren meridian. Neijing says: the governor is in a cycle, such as endless. It is not that the Du meridian and Ren meridian are connected to form a circle. Instead, it is said that the running route of the Du meridian is a closed route like a ring; Renmai's running route has its own closed route. If the governor and the governor are linked together, then the governor can't be the governor. How can he be the yang meridian of the governor? If you can't, how can you keep doing it?

In order to realize the Sunday movement, it is necessary to force the "truth" to pass through the Tianmen Cave on the top of the head, through the Yin Hui Cave on the bottom, and then out of the abdomen, and then out of the Ming Gate, so that these four axes can connect the universe from four directions, and then really live in the center of the universe. Only in this way can it be said that it has been integrated into the universe.

Then "Sunday cycle" is an important symbol of "Qigong".

Six, "yuan"

To improve human nature, we must start from the embryonic point, the starting point of human development. Only by absorbing celestial "rare substances" and information bodies from space through "Sunday Operation" can "Yuan" be supplemented. Therefore, practitioners believe that "Yuan" is incurable. Because it can't get enough substances from food to supplement its vitality.

And "Yuan" is a mixture of celestial substances passed from parents to babies and subtle blood of parents, which is a kind of running energy. Practicing qigong is to replenish the yuan, which can improve people's quality and transform human body structure. Taoism has the theory of "absorbing wind and returning to Yuan" and "thoroughly remoulding oneself", which refers to this.

Therefore, "supplementing Yuan" is also an important symbol of "Qigong".

To sum up the above points, the criteria for measuring Qigong should include the following aspects:

(1) refining method includes the processes of shape adjustment, center adjustment and gas adjustment.

(2) There is a kind of static form, which gradually rises from static to meditation.

(3) generate internal movement and feel the movement of "truth" in the body.

(4) Strengthen the biochemical function and maintenance function of "truth".

(5) add "yuan".

(6) Stimulating Superman's potential wisdom and other "special functions".

Any exercise method with the above characteristics is now called "Qigong".

As for the difference between cultivation and qigong, it should be said that general qigong only practices Mingmen, which can be called low-level qigong, while cultivation belongs to high-level qigong.

Bringing cultivation into the category of "Qigong" can reduce its mystery and superstition. Should be a good thing.

We give modern "Qigong" a new broad sense: it should be an exercise method with the above characteristics, all of which are included in the word "Qigong".

The word "Qigong" can still be used as a special term for exhaling in Wushu practice.

Strictly speaking, the word "Qigong" is not used properly, and it is confused with the qi of strength and luck. The ancients changed "true qi" to "true qi", and this special word "reading qi" is very insightful. If the word "Qigong" is changed to "Gong", it may be more appropriate. Paying attention to "truth" is also more accurate and practical.

Just changing the word without changing the sound does not affect everyone's original concept of "Gong". It is not contradictory to use the word "Qigong" in published works. There is no problem of changing international transliteration.

Using the word "merit" means more accurately, and people who don't know how to do it think so.

Second, the prospect of Qigong

At present, many people have different views on "Qigong", some are in favor, some are skeptical and even opposed. This is because everyone has different exposure to Qigong. Or have never been exposed to "Qigong" at all, then the understanding of "Qigong" is bound to be different. This is a natural and normal phenomenon.

People often put "Qigong" in opposition to science, which is incorrect. It seems that people are limited to taking out pictures and data, which is a one-sided view of science.

Science exists objectively, not by experiment. Only people know whether the scientific means are superb, and it is not only through experiments that we can determine whether it is scientific.

When people know nothing or little, it is undeniable that there are scientific laws in nature. Of course, it is not because this law does not exist before people know it.

As we all know, "Qigong" can not only strengthen the body, but also be used to check and treat diseases. This qigong master has cured many intractable diseases. Some of them are difficult to cure, even modern medicine can't, but Qigong cured them. People who practice acrobatics will generally get better, even recover, in good health, and the medical expenses of each unit will be significantly reduced. Medical tests help to confirm these facts.

These facts are undeniable science in themselves. Why do we have to emphasize that Qigong is scientific because we don't understand its therapeutic mechanism? !

Everyone is used to taking scientific data as the basis before they dare to admit its scientificity. "Qigong" has cured thousands of patients. Isn't this a powerful data?

Modern science only does experiments in the fields of physics and organic matter. There is no advanced equipment to study metaphysical temperament substances. This is limited by the level of modern science.

Why are many phenomena in Qigong not worth studying? Why do you only trust man-made mechanical instruments, but not the people you make? !

It can be asserted that the human body is the most sophisticated instrument. From the perspective function of Qigong, we can observe many phenomena in the ultra-modern scientific category. Isn't it worthwhile to open up a new road of scientific research from this window? The functions of human meridians and viscera were known by our ancestors thousands of years ago. There were no instruments at that time. How did you know that? Is there any other way to get enlightenment from epiphany during exercise? !

The most advanced modern scientific instruments can't test all the systems of meridians. Can this be discovered through the accumulation of medical experience? If this is possible, then thousands of years later, medical personnel have failed to find it. Even once denied the existence of meridians. This fact itself fully illustrates this problem.

It turns out that medical works such as Huangdi Neijing and Acupuncture A-B Classic were written by outstanding qigong experts Qi Bo and Lei Gong. In ancient times, medicine and qigong were integrated!

Of course, to understand the scientific nature of Qigong, we have already taken a step. It is understandable that you dare not admit it boldly before you get sufficient evidence. Understanding needs a process, and it takes longer to change people's traditional thinking. This is also the law of the development of human culture.

But have you ever thought that not actively studying it will hinder its development? Strictly speaking: it will hinder the evolution of mankind, or postpone the evolution of mankind! !

For thousands of years, "Qigong" has not been well developed, but it has been stubbornly preserved. This shows that it has great vitality.

In the long run, "Qigong" is bound to make great progress. And its influence on human beings is immeasurable. It's only a matter of time.

Here, I earnestly hope that the government can invest more research and study it as an important basic science. Beyond the existing scientific limitations, introduce the super-scientific category!

This is my wish, why not reward the wishes of the public!

"Qigong" is the source of human evolution, the motive force of science and an important means to master the laws of nature.

Understand, treat and learn "Qigong" scientifically. Let science enter a new stage under the guidance of "Qigong" and launch a great scientific revolution. Better complete the great contribution of modern people to mankind!
