The Methods of Zhineng Qigong Science

In order to use this "text book" you either have to be familiar with the practice itself (Qigong) or know Chinese. I am neither.Quotes from the book:1. "...close the eyes gently, draw the vision back. Say the Eight Phrases: Ding tian li di, xing song yi chong, wai jing nei jing, xin cheng mao gong, yi nian bu qi, shen zhu ..... bla bla bla"What is the point of mumbling something if you do not understand what you are saying (and most likely saying incorrectly)? AND instead of concentrating on Qi, you have to focus on memorizing this abracadabra.2. "At the 'shen ru qi zhong' level, there is still a distinction between shen and qi; they are still two. At 'shen qi he yi' level, shen and qi cannot be distinguished. For this, bodily qi must be continually refine until it changes into yiyuanti qi."I understand that it must of been challenging to translate from Chinese into a different language, and you wanted to stay as close to the original text as possible. But having SO MANY "original" words (that most of us do not understand) made this book (at least for beginners) very difficult to use.I spent more time on YouTube watching other people's videos on how to do the movements and Googling Chinese terms than reading the book.

It took me almost a year to find a copy of this out-of-print book. I wish it is available electronically so that anyone who wants to study the material can get hold of it in some from. I am still reading it, mostly using the book as reference for my practice. I may provide more detail info another time.

If you are student of Zhineng Qigong, this book will clarify and extend on so many points and the way to truly practice the form; I am delighted! If you are still new to it, well, I cannot but recommend you grab hold of it at once! A totally new perspective on life for many.

I have given this book five stars because the information it contains is detailed and wide ranging, but reading it requires enthusiastic and staunch commitment to the subject matter. It is a translation of a training text for students studying Qigong, so it can be quite heavy in places.

the best

The best book I have found for Zhineng Qigong. Highly recommended.

useful

My wife really liked this book. A good adjunct to regular Qigong classes.

One must investigate time and energy to understand this Qigong, but the results are great

Great book

Chaque mouvement est très bien expliqué, avec des graphiques, des conseils sur la pratique et sur les effets thérapeutiques. Si vous vous faites un petit lexique anglais/français personnel sur les parties du corps, ce livre est parfait et sans équivalent en langue française. En complément sur YouTube vous pouvez trouver 4 vidéos des méthodes Zhi Neng 1 et 2 : deux de Wei Qi Feng l'un des traducteurs du livre, et deux de Jérôme Ravenet avec commentaires en français et là, vous avez tout en main pour pratiquer à votre rythme et en approndissant bien mouvements et perceptions. Livre et vidéos sont complémentaires, car les vidéos n'apportent pas les conseils et precisions du livre.
