Zhineng Qigong without teacher doesn't do - Why ?

By -

It is like a candle - without flame no light.
What is it good for if the fire is lacking to light it?
The form, that is the exercise, is only the candle.
Poor teachers are like big candles without flame.
You can learn the form from them - nothing more.
Then the exercises are only gymnastics.
So, a candle without flame does not suffice.
The form has to be filled with contents.
You need a teacher with a burning flame.
There you can fetch fire - then it works.
Then the light will burn and shine ever stronger.

Frozen Shoulders

In Europe a woman in the early fifties "thawed" her frozen shoulders with the additional exercise Tai Ji Ball of Zhineng Qigong and regained full agility. Thawing goes slowly - 30 minutes of Tai Ji ball daily - the gong lastet 360 days. During menopause women often have to deal with frozen shoulders. See also videos of Pang Ming on Tai Ji Ball .

Freedom of Thoughts

  Free translation of an old German song on the freedom of thoughts: "Thoughts are free, who can guess them, they fly past like shades in the night. No one can know them, no hunter shoot them with powder and lead, thoughts are free! I think what I want and what makes me happy, but all in stillness and as it should be. My wish and desire nobody can deny me, it remains: Thoughts are free! And if they lock me into dark dungeons, all this is purely in vain. Because my thoughts tear down the barriers and walls, thoughts are free! So I say goodbye for ever to anxiety and I will also never more worry unnecessarily. In your heart you can always laugh and joke and keep thinking: Thoughts are free! I love wine, my girl-friend above all, she alone pleases me best. I do not sit alone with a glass of wine, my girl-friend at my side: Thoughts are free!"

Does it make sense to learn historic qigong ?

Yes, this is how to learn something about qigong. Examples explain for whom and to what purpose. Example The wooden draisine, the dandy-horse, a forerunner of the bycicle has no pedals, no backpedal brake. The later penny-farthing had no gear, one wheel rotation of the large wheel, a much longer track than that of a small wheel. A modern bike has backpedal brake, pedals, chain, gear, so you can select the transmission as for a large or a small wheel, the real wheel size loses importance. For small children we also have dandy-horses today. Thus they are trained early for a bike. Example The original pommel horse on the Hasenheide looked different from today's, also the gymnastic clothing. Shirts and pants in stripes are not customary today. The materials are different, for apparatus and clothing. Result For show events it can be very nice. Everyone enoys seeing a penny-farthing in motion or a team of gymnasts in striped clothing. As with the dandy-...
