MERCELESS ONE Posted March 28, 2014 I guess so. However in Chang's case I think he not only knows exactly what he's talking about, but also knows how to teach it. that may be true, my opinion is based on those who diseminated the information which is lacking and full of holes. not to mention they never mastered much of the system to be able to explain it properly. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChiDragon Posted March 28, 2014 If you were told what Neigong is, will you able to recognize it or understand it or accept it as you were told without continuing on a wild goose chase....??? I don't think you know what you are after because you're just don't know even you were told what it is. Period. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrandmasterP Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Seems like Mo Pai and Nei Gong are two terms that sure do kick off some hostile postings on TTB. Mo Pai I can understand having been around in the past when that was a hot topic on TTB. Mo Pai arguments tend to run along lines that someone says they know what it is and then someone else says " No that's not what it is at all." Why Nei Gong though? From what I've seen there are Nei Gong teachers out there who have a good rep. This guy for example..... http://chutaichi.com/neikung.shtml OK so someone can say.." That's NOT Nei Kung" but we can all see what it is we are discussing from the guy's website, references, testimonials and such and he's been going for years. We can't do that with Mo Pai though because the only info we have is from a very few books in English about it from way back written in the pre- internet era.

ChiDragon Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Nei Kung is an internal system of Chi Kung, employing slow, deep breathing and requiring a relaxed physical stance and mental attitude. This is very vague statement to begin with. It is confuse as hell. It can fool the Western public but not the natives. There was no such thing as an internal system of Chi Kung. Chi Kung is stand alone without any subsystem under it. "employing slow, deep breathing and requiring a relaxed physical stance and mental attitude" is Chi Kung rather than Neigong. If people accept this as gospel, then they had started with the wrong foot. Neigong is a complete different system. Neigong is related to Chi Kung because of the breathing requirement. Neigong is requiring more physical stress on the muscles, after Chi Kung has been accomplished, to produce the immense body strength.

Do you think Neigong is closer to Hard Qigong as they have similar practices of breathing,tension etc ? Thanks, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KenBrace Posted March 29, 2014 Actually I have figured out logical proof that the theory of mo pai yin chi theory is wrong.. apart from just being an obviously extremely honest person that says I feel energy buzzing at my feet but apparantely that doesnt mean much anyone who is proficient enough with healing will feel energy in their hands, this cannot be considered a hallucination or delusional, honestly if you cant feel energy in your hands you have zero right to comment on what is placebo and what isnt. Now a healer can transmit energy to another person with or without a shoe or tons of material between the other person, this has little effect on an energy transfer in the same way, if the connection is strong enough between the feet, which are like the hands aand the earth then the transfer of energy between earth and the person should be only very slightly affected by some materials and or distance Now here is another logical argument there are six to seven people here all of who have much experience in qigong or are qigong teachers 10-20-50 years experience most likely healers and doing hours a day of strong practices, now why is it that they all disagree with thunder gooch. Why would a person who said he trained with john chang then go and learn from someone else and reccomend ya mus program and stillness movement, why would a student of mo pai a actual one from indonesia strongly urge thunder gooch to stop spreading misinformation and discrediting their school Conclusion = Your definition of yin chi is different than that of Mo Pai's. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChiDragon Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Do you think Neigong is closer to Hard Qigong as they have similar practices of breathing,tension etc ? Thanks, Yes, by definition, Neigong is to build up the internal body strength. Indeed, that is what Hard Qigong does. Besides, all methods require breathing and muscle tension in order to generate the internal strength. Neigong is to enhance one's ability to generate the internal body energy by the emphasis on deep breathing and muscle tension. The execution of the Neigoong of the practitioner depends on the amount of Chi Kug(UMB) practice and one's tuition. One should be able to focus on every muscle in the body in order to perform Neigong effectively. Focus means the ability to feel and control every muscle in the body.

MERCELESS ONE Posted March 29, 2014 breathing is important but mindstate is the most important factor. in qigong you go into a meditation state just like with bagua and taichi. the movements move chi to where the movement is supposed to move the chi. it does this all on its own. and is only helped by staying in a meditative state and perfecting your form. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
