Dr.Pang said: You can certainly think that way. In the minds of most people, there exists the notion that objects with high density—such as walls or tables—cannot be penetrated. If you consistently maintain the belief that they can be penetrated, you are essentially altering the content of the reference framework within the Yi Yuan Ti. However, this belief must arise from a deep level of awareness. Thinking in this manner does not consume energy.

I want to share with you my experience running while practicing Qigong. On October 4, I participated in a trail running competition of 100km with an elevation of 4,600m. It was the second time I had attempted to run this distance. Last year I tried it, but I trained too hard and arrived at the competition very tired and sore. This year, I trained one-third less than last year, but I followed the recommendations given to me by teacher Lu: run in nature state, focus my breathing on Mingmen, and be present in my body while running. In addition, during training, I tried to apply what I had learned in the Body and Mind Method by being present in my body and visualizing it running. Even so, during the competition after running 10 km, due to the heat and jet lag (I had arrived from China three days earlier), I began to feel pain in my head and neck, so for half an hour I gathered Qi to my head and neck while running. Then, at km 21, I began to feel pain in my liver area, and what I ate made me feel heavy and bloated. For the next two hours, I gathered Qi, organized the Field, and tried to correct the sensation in my liver and stomach, but nothing I tried worked. The pain grew worse, and I even considered abandoning the race. Then, at kilometer 30, I remembered one of Master Lu's classes: return, penetrate the interior, and enjoy the pain, and that nothing was more important than that. So I began to feel the pain and think of the pain I felt as something good. I was able to go very deep into the liver by thinking that the more it hurt, the deeper I could go into the liver. I could even hear Master Lu's voice saying: “What is enjoying pain?” “Enjoy pain” “This is very enjoying” In a few minutes, the pain in my liver disappeared, then it moved to my pancreas and stomach, so now I was enjoying the pain there. A few minutes later, there was no pain in my pancreas or stomach either. I began to digest my food better and feel more energetic. Around the 40-kilometer mark, I was already feeling pain-free and strong. From that moment until the end of the competition, I had no more pain, only fatigue, but no more pain.

The practice of life is an inward exploration. Our inner world is as profound and mysterious as the universe, resembling an endless black hole. It requires scientific, safe, and systematic theories to guide our life practice and validation, thereby illuminating this incredibly beautiful world. Without theoretical guidance, it becomes blind practice—imagine walking in unknown darkness; what would that experience be like? The practice of life must be approached with particular caution. Therefore, let us read, understand principles, and engage in scientific practice under clear theoretical guidance. We will gradually introduce a series of classic books for collective study and discussion. We will begin with the university textbook on Zhineng Qigong Science, reading and exploring it together. Even when facing the same matter or the same sentence, everyone’s perspective can vary greatly. Through this, we aim to enrich our frame of reference, deepen our understanding of theory, and achieve immediate transformation—where theory becomes method, a high-level practice where consciousness commands life!

Dr.Pang said: First, follow the natural laws of Qigong. Do not overly pursue certain desirable phenomena during practice—such as special abilities or extraordinary skills—and avoid setting rigid expectations for yourself in advance. If you fixate on these goals and constantly chase after them, you violate the principles of qigong. Problems that arise are not caused by diligent practice itself but by failing to follow the natural laws of qigong. Second, when practicing from books, it's best to follow a single system or lineage rather than mixing methods from different sources. Combining techniques can easily lead to problems. Without a teacher's guidance and prior experience, you may not understand the core principles or essential foundations of a particular method. What you adopt from one school might contradict another, creating complications.
