Guest guest Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Hi all. Qi is a very broad term that is often made way mroe mystical than it is or needs to be. Emitting energy can be as simple as a ball emitting energy when it hits the ground. Don't be fooled into thinking the Chinese did not understand " newton's " law. Chinese martial arts are constantly on about qi emission, and much of it is what we would term physical. Of course, qi includes electricity, as has been referenced many times regarding lightning storms. Qi also has to do with the electrical charge in the air, which is part of the reason why waterfalls, oceans and mountains have a better qi. Finally, qi means " influence " and as such does a very good job of standing in for any dynamic / change.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 When you have enough, you can give it, 'emit' it. If you don't have enough, you can't. --- On Wed, 9/30/09, Hugo Ramiro <subincor wrote: Hugo Ramiro <subincor Re: R: Re: Emitting Qi? Chinese Medicine Wednesday, September 30, 2009, 2:45 PM Hi all.
