It doesn't matter in which form a book appears, printed on paper or as an e-book: The most expensive item is the work done by the author of a book. The efforts for a report, a story or a novel vary from little to very much. In a report you only talk about something you have seen or heard. A search from one or more sources may be or may be not necessary before you print it. You do not only write something down. You need a thorough knowledge. If you don't think so, you are wrong. The reader will notice it at once, will lose interest. Travel, studies, consulting and much more. A special training or course may not be avoidable Perhaps some consulting of experts will follow. Therefore a book or e-book of high quality cannot be free of charge. Every work is worth a wage you have to pay. There are different formats for e-books We use only ePUB, with manual and automatically generated index, you can click on to open a page with a certain content.

„Dark Power“ means not visible power or energy. „Dark Matter“ means not visible matter. The Universe - „Dark Power” - „Dark Matter“ Terminology of physics and cosmology. Who does not know them The Universe is today general knowledge. The other two terms perhaps are less well known to most of us. This may change and will be different in the future. The knowledge of mankind is changing continuously. We all know visible matter, visible power or energy. It is the matter, which is around us. It is the power or energy, which we all know. Things being not visible may exist. Let us only think of radioactive radiation or similar. Who wants to know more about these terms, will find descriptions in the internet For comparisons in this blog I need these terms and therefore I do mention them.

In general one teacher. Very often I have the impression: Many people don't think like it. You attend a course and learn the form, i.e. the movements. You repeat this many times and each time it is the same. You only learn and practise the form - and nothing else. Do you really want to learn more and go further ? Well, I have been lucky, my first teacher came from China. You may think this is nothing special, but she taught in German. This was and still is something special. How will you understand something, if it is new knowledge and teaching is done by spoken words and it is not in your own language ? If the cultural background is unknown, misunderstandings are programmed. Then words are empty words, no contents, only word shells. No wonder, if you then only learn the form and the form will not be filled with contents. Ten courses only learning the form and it will only be the form. Then it will stay the gymnastic practice.

Science has meanwhile decoded the human genes. Does it help us and explain all about our talents or our abilities or is it once again only a part of everything ? Very important occurrences leave traces in our mind, a so called trauma from an accident, from an earthquake, from a war, or something similar and even the next generations are suffering. They inherit it and this you cannot find in the genes. The genes are the same as without it. If the genes have to be changed always, we would nearly have no chance for development as human beings. Actually scientists talk of so called “switches”, to be switched on or off, changing our abilities. The scientists are looking for the “switches” and how to use them. Perhaps we already have the ability to use the “switches”, and do not know, because no one taught us how to use them. The other point is, why do human beings change ? Are there people which know how to use the “switches” and use the ability or is the use on

If you want to understand or recognize something, it is vital, to think freely. What is seeing ?  People see with their eyes and need light for it. Cats or owls need less light to see. Snakes are able to see the thermal heat. Bats use for orientation sounds of the ultrasonic range. What is a picture ? Something two- or three-dimensional ? Is a picture, what human beings see with their eyes ? Is a sound picture that, what human beings hear with the ears ? Is a thermal picture, what an infra-red camera is showing or what is made visible for a person. Does it look similar for a snake ? Which view is the right view ? The view of a human being ? The view of a cat, an owl, a snake, a bat or what view is it ? What do we need to see ? Is it light ? Or sounds and if yes, which ones ? Is it thermal heat or energy or what else is it ? What is a view ? Is a sound picture perhaps a different kind of view ? Is a thermal picture, seen by a snake or insect no kind o

Again and again you can read something about placebo. Actually the latest knowledge tells us that you will find placebo effects where you don't expect to find them. Drugs act worse, if you are convinced they will not help you. Drugs act better, if you are convinced they will help you. Recovery will speed up or injuries are healing faster, if it is your will. The human mind is able to do something. The human beings own self-regulating forces and are able to activate or enforce them. The self-regulating forces act better, if you are able to mobilise them. You do not need always a medicine to improve your health. Even good medicine needs positive surroundings to work best. Nowadays we have methods or equipment to measure the activity of the brain. The different activities in different parts of the brain confirm this. The reality is: It is not difficult to see the truth, but do want to see it ? Nowadays it is often possible to see or measure it. 

It is already well known: the filing, the storage is done in pictures. New knowledge is: it is done in holographic pictures. You should know:  If you have a small part of a holographic picture, you have the information of the whole picture. A small fraction is sufficient and is all you need for the reproduction of the whole picture. Nobody knows why it is like this, but we are able to produce holographic pictures and do so. We only know the method of production. I also know:  In the French language a drunken person is “black“. In the German language the same person is “blue“. The idea suggests itself: Two people see the same picture. Do they get the same information ? Do they get different information and if, why ? In China there are many different languages, but the characters are the same The different language doesn't matter. The text, the written characters, everyone is able to read. If the speech is Cantonese or Mandarin. They do not u

The lowest level of learning is copying . Many teachers are able to teach the forms, i.e. the movements. The next level of learning is the speech, are the words. Spoken, written, printed, audio-recording or what it is. But there remains one big problem - who speaks all the languages ? Of course, nobody and who in the western world speaks Chinese ? In most cases nowadays we use therefore the English language. A language is not only the spoken words, it is expression of a culture. If you have already learned a foreign language, you know it. I speak German and pardon me, but German is more precise. A description of goods will give you more precise information, if written in German language. Nevertheless I try to explain something in English. Teachers and practitioners need a thorough knowledge of English. Very seldom this is the case - but only then, understanding is possible. The third level of learning is through the “Qi Field“. But please excuse me, I ha

Every human is born, with "Qi", but needs the information, how to activate "Qi". Without knowing how to use the "switch", it is like, you know nothing about your possibilities. "Zhineng Qigong“ Level 1: "Lift Qi Up, Pour Qi Down"  Sense and purpose of these practices is to open and prepare body and mind for "Qi", release used "Qi" and absorb fresh "Qi“. "Zhineng Qigong" Level 1: "Three Centers Merge" Absorb, merge and storage of "Qi" in the lower Dantian. We learn how to use the "switch", on and off. We learn how to lift „Qi“ up, pour "Qi" down, absorb or release or merge "Qi". If this has not be done, the practices of Level 2 are useless, because we are not ready for "Qi".

The "Zhineng Qigong" practice can be done in different speeds. You can practise as a group of beginners at a medium speed. You can practise as a group of advanced students at a higher speed. You can practise as a single practitioner in your own biological rhythm. Last but not least the practice can be done in a very slow teacher speed, so that it is possible, to see more from the movements for learning. A beginner often has problems to make flowing movements. A slow speed makes this nearly impossible for a beginner. A high speed often has the result in losing contact with "Qi". Therefore medium speed for beginners or groups of students mostly is the best speed. The very slow teacher speed is there only to show the movements to students. A teacher should be able to do that as flowing movements. How shall "Qi" flow without flowing movements ? Another mistake is if you want to feel "Qi" flowing. Even advanced practitioner

It is the attempt, to make available "Qi Power", to learn, to use it consciously and to do something with it. Dr. Pang Ming studied and changed Qigong practices in the intention, how to use "Qi" to influence body and mind, to use this power for the healing of sick people without any delay. "Zhineng Qigong" is the result of these attempts. Instead of closed practices and movements of the ancient Qigong, he used only open practices and movements and the result is „Zhineng Qigong", the system of open practices. The open Qigong practices already did exist, but not as a special Qigong style of open  practices and movements and using the "Qi Power". In the Center in China the effects have been proven and confirmed. It is similar to the Placebo-Effect. Negative surroundings have influence on the effects and are able to change the result. People having doubts about the effects, say this confirms it. They feel they are ri

The own personal „Qi Field“ The own personal „Qi Field“ will be built up, soon after you started practising regularly „Zhineng Qigong". A very strong "Qi Field" can surround you like a protecting coating, even if you do not practise "Zhineng Qigong". And after some time it will always be with you. It works in our surroundings, animals feel it. Charisma - Aura We try to define these words in the kind of a "radiance", the positive impact, a human has, in his surroundings, of course this happens too, in a negative sense. Is there any difference ? A person with a strong personal "Qi Field“ enters the room. A person with Charisma enters the room. You will feel in both cases, somebody entered the room. This person needs nothing, to say, to be noticed. People from the east or China explain it with the personal "Qi Field" People from the west speak of Charisma, of presence of a person, of an Aura, which is going

Two forms are of importance for "Zhineng Qigong“ practitioners: The own personal „Qi“, every person is born with it. The "Hunyuan-Qi“, the finest "Qi" of the universe. It is around us, we use it and work with it. "Zhineng Qigong“- theory is: all matter has an own "Qi Field". Change the "Qi Field“, then the matter changes. A stone, a flower all has an own "Qi Field“ A healthy person or a sick person, both have a "Qi Field". Changing the "Qi Field" changes a sick into a healthy person. You have to change the "Qi Field“ and to know how to do it. "Zhineng Qigong" practitioners use "Hunyuan-Qi" and not like other Qigong the personal "Qi" for it. Is it right or is it wrong ? - Who knows ? Well known for Christians from the Holy Bible is: Water changed to wine or what about the Holy Communion. We live in a Christian dominated world.

The "Dark Power" - "Dark Energy" - "Dark Matter" Theory   The first point we have to know is:  dark stands for unknown or not visible. The second point is:  it is part of a hypothesis, a theory. This western theory says: 30 per cent of the universe consists of dark matter, 70 per cent is dark energy, we are not able to see.   1 per cent only is visible matter or energy. If you think that this not 100 per cent, you are wrong because the parts are approximate values. The visible parts are of no importance like the dust on glass being not clean. The "Hunyuan-Qi" Theory  The theory of Hunyuan-Qi is a very ancient eastern theory. The hypothesis is something being so small, so fine, that it is around us, passes through all and is at any place in the universe. It is the smallest particle of the universe, not more and not less. In condensed form it can be a creature, an animal, a tree, a stone or something else. Surrounded b

You may find many explanations and very different  or even false data, mostly describing only a part of "Qi"  like: energy, life force or breath. The reason for it is:  Do you want to use the ancient  or today's meaning of the word "Qi". "Qi" is matter, energy and information all in one. You want an explanation ? "Hunyuan-Qi" the finest "Qi" is around us and in the universe. The scientists say that the emptiness of the universe  is not emptiness. The matter of "Qi" "Hunyuan-Qi" in very high concentration may be a creature,  an animal, a tree, a stone or something else. The energy of "Qi" With the practice we absorb "Qi" from the surrounding or release used "Qi". The information of "Qi" Every creature, a tree, a stone, owns a "Qi Field". Change the "Qi Field" and the matter will change, like the information changed.

Why do we have the feeling, we do not go on ? Why do we have the feeling, we do not make any progress ? Because again and again we lose the holistic of the person. This even happens in China, however, it's an essential for Qigong. Dr. Pang Ming already ascertained:  In the Western World there is an extra emphasis on the logic.  They try to explain all with logic, even that, which isn't and perhaps never will be explainable by logic. The whole person is more than only logic. Don't forget the other part of a person ! What does it tell us for the practise of "Zhineng Qigong" ? There is no progress without daily practice and: You have to practise the movements. You have to practise the theory. I did make this mistake like many others. I started practising the movements only. Then an interruption, practising theory only. Both was wrong always one part was missing. Content of the teacher education in the Center was: daily lessons in t

Qigong the parent system of "Zhineng Qigong" was created, as people started thinking about the best way how to live, how to get very old and stay healthy. However, as it is often the case, the result usually has precious little to do with the original intention. The search for harmony, for a lifestyle without any hectic, with conscious acting, self-control in daily life or self-control in eating and other parts of the life should help to achieve this. This includes also the training of the mind, ethics and much more. This started thousands of years before our time and it changed already very much and will do so in the future. A new idea was born: Using "Qi" for healing sick and ill people without any delay.  The result was the system of “Zhineng Qigong”.  Dr. Pang Ming focused his activities in so called open movements or exercises. He created the first open qigong system and gave it the name "Zhineng Qigong" and divided it

The Reference System of "Zhineng Qigong" changes after  successfully terminating a level, learn the form - the movements  - and afterwards fill the form with content. The Reference System is not a very certain system of values. It is different, every level is different and so are the changes. Example:   There are people with a very dominating ego.  This egoism does not suit "Zhineng Qigong".  You have to feel it and to reduce it.  If you do not succeed, you will get caught  by a level sooner or later.  Example:   Dr. Pang Ming already says: „Do not compare with others.“  It doesn't matter if the movements look pretty or correctly done.  Most important is to let “Qi“ flow and let "Qi" work.  With the comparison: I am or I can do better starts egoism.  Example: To fit in a position does not depend on your ego. You have to  own the capabilities and the Reference System for that.  To be a president needs the ex
