The 3 internal chinese martial arts can teach you to develop that energy inside of yourself and use it- not so it tingles a bit on your hands, but so you live it when you apply the martial aspect of these arts.
Some could argue an esoteric meaning to the whole meditation thing, but meditation is not even half of what you develop when you train in the internal arts. And even then, if you cant put it into use when fighting, then, it is pretty much worthless.

I know of bioelectiricty I felt the chi ball before between the hands. However I fail to understand the pracatical appilcation of it.
I have seen the touchless KO stuff. However I personally believe its a bit out t here. In my opinion fake.
So using for physical contact I still try to understand. Oh well maybe in time I will. I guess I won't worry about it any more. |
The concept of Chi is not so much bioelectricity as it is good circulation and flow of oxygen through the blood.
however, others state that both Chi(in the Chinese context) and Ki(japanese context) have more to do with vibration that can be controlled through breathing patterns and exercises.
Another part of the internal arts and it doesnt directly relate to Chi or Ki is the kind of movement you use, in other words, correct body mechanics: alignment of the spine,leverage, torque, relaxation.
When you mix the 2, you have the internal art: a natural body that can use its abilities to the max without over exerting itself, and martial arts training that exploits the natural weaknesses of others- usually these arts are done slowly, so you can feel the movements, instead of knowing them, which require concentration to perform, as opposed of just doing them out of reflex.

no problem.
i recommend the book "the way of power" and "the way of energy" by Master Lam Chuen. it explains chi in a simple and down-to-earth way.
