Acupressing the meridian points may cause discomfort but no permanent harm. However, if there is a pain in the body, acupressing the right meridian point may stop the pain almost instantly. For example, I had this pain in my neck for two years from throwing knives. So, I bought and studied the acupuncture book that was used in acupuncture classes in China. I used a hook-like acupuncture instrument for the hard-reaching place in the back of the body by acupressing the meridian points on my shoulder blade. I just had done it a few times and the pain in the neck was gone, instantly, and never came back.

Laozi followed the concept of Yin-yang(陰陽) from Yijing(易經) as the guide to his Wu Wei(無為) philosophy. From then on, he spent most of the time introducing what Wu Wei is all about in the TTC.

Once a day is excessively done it will cause a biological imbalance. It is because your body needs at least 2 to 3 days to rejuvenate for sperm to mature. Twice a week is normal but I still wouldn't recommend it for a normal person. Unless the individual practices Taiji or Qigong daily to speed up the rejuvenating process.

Enlightenment is something that came across your mind that you had just realized brings changes to your thinking or life. It was something that you had never experienced before. It is not by an external influence but within yourself.

自發功 is a self-initiated qigong method. It implicated that there is no definite sequential form. Thus, the movements initiated by practitioners are different every time without mind control. With this practice, sometimes the practitioner cannot stop the movements and goes into an impaired mental state. It requires external help from an experienced qigong master to get out of this mode.

不能這樣說的, 因為太極拳和自發功同樣都是氣功, 是有同樣的効果. 所謂氣功即是練呼吸帶有動作. 練到有素才有氣感而不是一朝一夕便可得來的.
