“By emphasizing the active use of consciousness as its primary principle, ZNQG captures the most fundamental aspect of ancient Qigong practice. Once this concept is understood and internalized, practitioners will actively apply consciousness during their practice, aligning their thoughts with the requirements of Qigong. Gradually, this approach extends beyond practice sessions into daily life, ensuring that all life activities conform to the principles of Qigong. As a result, the quality of life becomes entirely different. While this may sound simple, achieving it is far from easy. To accomplish this, we must thoroughly examine all aspects of consciousness. In daily life, our minds are constantly active, filled with numerous ingrained impressions. If we do not use Qigong knowledge to "cleanse" these imprints from our minds, it will be impossible to align our life activities with the requirements of Qigong. Therefore, let us now delve deeper into understanding consciousness.”

We think we are loving, but in fact, we are only hurting. We think we are giving, but in fact, we are only taking. We think we are offering the best to the other person, but in reality, we are imposing what we want onto them.

It is asking me, who are you and where you come from...

[3] Does the intention to cure diseases, which originates from the deep part of the brain, consume the HunYuan Qi from YiYuanTi? Can you feel how the intention to cure diseases emerges from the deep part of the brain? You can't. In fact, the intention to cure diseases is very natural, It just passes through your mind and is no different from ordinary intentions. Logically speaking, the intention that truly comes from the deep part of the brain should consume very little energy. What you should be afraid of is random thoughts, which are more likely to consume energy and affect your health. In the past, there was a saying about lovesickness, which was caused by random thoughts. The more you think about it, the more confused you become, and the more confused you are, the more your health is affected. But it's different when we cure diseases. When you focus your mind, the intention comes out from within and won't consume primordial energy. Especially when it comes to pure intention-based healing, when a patient thinks "I'm cured", it takes effect immediately. This is the most effortless way.

Today, we will explore the concept of "consciousness" as mentioned in the "actively using consciousness"—specifically, what state of consciousness this refers to. The key to practicing Qigong lies in the application of consciousness, but this consciousness is not the ordinary, scattered, and random state of mind. In Qigong practice, the application of consciousness must genuinely originate from the mind. You must be clearly aware and able to feel this intention. For example, when we practice "pushing and pulling," you consciously generate the intention to push from within your mind. Once this intention is integrated with the movement, you do not cling to it—the moment the intention arises, it empties out. In this state of consciousness, there is intention, yet it feels as though there is none. This is because the intention arises clearly and distinctly from the mind but empties out immediately after, without attachment—as if there were no intention at all. Such a state of consciousness plays a significant role in Qigong practice. It can gather the body's genuine qi. Once the genuine qi accumulates, the body begins to generate heat. As the heat rises, the yang energy is activated. The activation of yang energy automatically stimulates the functions of the endocrine, immune, and other systems within the body. So, isn’t such a state of consciousness incredibly important? Shouldn’t you repeatedly reflect on and refine it during your practice?
