Well, I think chi exists, but I don't think of it as anything overly mystical. I think it is our life force, an energy that everyone has. Some may have learned how to channel it, and some may not have. I believe that if you try to visualize your power as coming from the center of your body, then you are attempting to utilize your chi. I like to think of it as "internal energy."

I've posted on this topic before, there was a show in Discovery channel and they were trying to prove it's existence scientifically. They were doing some fascinating measurements and they concluded it did exist but we lacked the technology to measure it fully.

Really?!? That's cool. What type of measurements did they take on the show. I've never heard of anyone trying to measure it before.

It was a lot of electrodes on the people's bodies. They had normal people as well as exceptional people like professional athletes, martial artists, zen practitioners, etc. I can't seem to find the information but I am going to try hunting it down.

There was also some interesting work with polygraphs, since they measure things like that as well.

That's quite cool. I'm keeping an eye on this topic, so if you get the info, let me know.

yeah, internal energy

A drop of sweat spent in practice is a drop of blood saved in a battle.

A person who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the man doing it.

It can be thought of as "Bioelectricity" as well.

It is best to learn the Chi Gung exercises and see for yourself, as different people will provide different explanations and theories behind it.
