Qi Healing - Is It Real?

By Brother Shui

To the Western modality of disease treatment, all is aimed at reducing discomfort of the sufferer. This usually centers around eliminating the symptoms of discomfort, and as such, if you have a headache, the doctor will give you an aspirin first. If it doesn't go away, the doctor will examine your head under X-ray. If nothing can be detected and a plausible reason given for your condition, he will refer you to a psycho-analyst or psychiatrist to see if your pain is brought about by some repressed emotions.

In Chinese or Oriental treatment methods, your pulse will be taken to see if it is shallow, full, fast, or slow. The sinseh (traditional doctor) will ask you to show your tongue, which he will examine - the colour, whether there is a coat of fur, whether it is red and puffy or there is a crack running down from the inside to the tip.

Then he will ask you a set of question to see if you sleep well, pass motion, or feel hot when the weather is actually cool.

Once all these are available, he will tell you whether your liver is hot, your heaty qi is high and so on. Then he will prescribe the herbs to remove excess heat if it is present or remove dampness if you are diagnosed to have such a condition. The lengthy methodology, according to Chinese medical treatment, is to remove the cause. Headache, for example, may be caused by heatiness (spending too much time in the sun, or lack of sleep (hence the body's qi becomes hot). The traditional sinseh does not treat the pain but rather the underlying causes that contributes to the pain. This is where western and oriental treatments differ. The former treats the symptoms, the latter the disease.

All these oriental modals will look alien and even sound like hogwash to a western trained doctor, so much so that he would not bat an eyelid as to whether the sinseh is right - without understanding how Chinese treatment works.

In qigong, using qi to heal, the qi master harnesses ether in the atmosphere to effect healing of a disease. To a highly trained qigong master, healing with energy is rapid, effective and permanent.

This brings to mind the popular practice of Zhineng Qigong (which Brother Phil described in one of the earlier discourses). Master Pang Ming, who is a medical doctor and well known herbalist, introduced medicineless treatment methods at his Huaxia Medicineless Hospital.

To those who know Dr Pang Ming's methods, one would be amazed on how he gives hearing to deaf children, help the elderly see better, cure stroke disability and even achieve some extent of success with cancer patients. And all these are done with nothing more than faith and persistence, doing the five sets of the Lift Chi Up, Pour Chi Down forms.

I have also exsperience this kind of healing myself when my wife whose cracked ear drum healed in three weeks using qi transmission. The specialist who was attending to her was amazed and inquired of what treatment she was subjected to, as according to him, the aperture in her ear drum would take at least 6 months to a year to heal.

I told him that it was his medicine that did the work. The good doctor insisted that we must have undertaken another form of treatment because he has apparently not seen the healing so fast. He begged me to inform him my treatment method. However, fearing of shaking his belief on what he is trained to do, as a western medical healer, I refused to tell him the truth. I insisted that he was the one who healed my wife. I could still remember the awe in his eye as I left his office at one of the hospitals in Kuala Lumpur.

Can Qi heal? Of course, but only if you believe and trust it enough to let it do its work.

Did the great teacher Jesus Christ not say something about the strength of the mind in healing?
