Qigong and education "De"(* De - Chinese philosophy category, indicating a general pristine virtue, morality.)

                                 


Since qigong classes are multi-faceted production process including willpower, hardening of the nature and formation of modern ethic, they are useful not only for the elderly and the sick, but even more young men and women. Qigong is able to encourage the younger generation and society in general to new achievements for the prosperity of mankind. However, speaking of Qigong, we can not neglect the concept of "de". Before learning qigong exercise individually, and moral qualities of the applicant for training were the most important criterion in the selection, and in further preparation was carried out continuous education of virtue. Qigong - is not wushu. Nevertheless, many styles of wushu is based on elements from the "hard qigong". Some specific skills with combat use, are also often taken from the practice of Qigong. Therefore, issues of education in the study of de qigong paid so much attention. If we consider qigong as a therapeutic method, he, on the one hand, it is a means of strengthening one's own body and mind, and on the other hand, can be used to treat other diseases. The most common methods of Qigong therapy include influence on biologically active points, massage, acupuncture, interference by "external qi". All of them require a lot of dedication from Qigong therapist, which is possible only when there is a high medical ethics.
In addition, because the study of qigong requires removal of extraneous thoughts and self-denial, the people limited, always dissatisfied with everything will not be easy to master the skill. Finally, the goal of Qigong is not compatible with deception and the desire for fame and personal gain.
In China since ancient times, has received considerable attention to education de by qigong practitioners. Confucians, "military school" and Taoists called qigong classes' comprehension of the Tao ", believing that" the attainment of Tao "inseparable and improve de. Tao and Te are closely related to each other. Therefore the ancients said this: "Perfection without de mining skill - a waste of time, practice skills - without improving de inevitably lead to a meeting with the evil spirit." Moralist, even in adverse conditions the negative impact of external conditions can get rid of extraneous thoughts, keep a stiff upper lip to maintain a balance between thought and chi experience peace of mind during Qigong practice. What is de? This concept has a narrow and broad. In a broad sense, it means a bi-unity of the original cosmic substance and its properties. In other words, "Te is the thinnest primary natural substance in the aggregate, with its properties and laws. It is included in all things in the universe, including the human body.Interacting with the Tao Te determines the birth, growth and death of a person. The entire development of human life against the backdrop of the ever-present Tao Te influenced. Therefore, human life and de in the broadest sense is closely related to one another. Te in the narrow sense of the word means the rules of human behavior in society and interpersonal communication. It does not have the force of law, but feel their influence and acts in the power of human habits. Te rules impose certain restrictions on human behavior, but they are not comparable with the limits of the law. De gravitates to the spiritual realm of human life and therefore penetrates deep into his inner world ("Qigong tansuy"). When it comes to education in de Qigong practice, it takes into account both the value of the concept. First, the meaning of moral behavior in everyday life, such as: getting rid of the subjectivity and self-interest, education nobility. And secondly, it is understood the need to follow the natural order of things, the perception of life as a natural phenomenon, which guarantees its normal course. With regard to the main conditions and methods of education de, here there are some aspects that will be discussed.
1. The development of willpower and hardening nature are an important tool for maintaining the "mind and spirit" at rest. In daily life, studies and work necessary to restrain their feelings. Talking to people to be friendly, based on restraint and peace, generosity and willingness to do good. The ancients said: "Anger, like fire, burned forest, destroying the skill and virtue. It is not necessary to set foot on the path of understanding (Qigong), as no patience does not compensate the damage caused feelings of anger. " The desire to learn how to manage their feelings, too, is part of the education process de.
2. Latitude nature and optimism. In any conditions should maintain a sense of joy, which promotes normal blood circulation and circulation of qi. In the "Su Wen" says: "Joy - a good frame of mind and purpose designed for universal benefit." If the troubles of everyday life do not give you peace of mind enough to smile, and in the heart breaks out joy and sorrow all fade like smoke. Taoists, Confucians and Buddhists in ancient times followed this rule. There is even a saying: "Buddhist, Confucian and Taoist! The three years of arguing they do not sin. Whatever touched upon the question of truth is one more sound - laughter. " It should be borne in mind that during Qigong practice focus is primarily on the internal organs, so the "laughter", mentioned above, should be understood not as unrestrained laughter, but as a sense of joy, is the deep heart. Sometimes people say, "Smile corners of his mouth." This means that the smile should always be "hidden" on the face. The foregoing applies to those who are in the early stages of learning Qigong. Learning to achieve feelings of comfort, ease and peace of mind, you can begin to comprehend the higher levels of skill. At a certain stage of training the body is filled with chi, and in the heart itself arises joy, not subject to any sorrows and hardships. Buddhists call this state of nirvana. Joy and optimism can not be called an artificial way, they naturally arise.
2. Foster a culture, get rid of bad manners and inclinations. Good manners and disposition are important both for the individual and for others, because they correspond to the nature of life. In ancient times, a quality called "high virtue." It was believed that it contributes to the improvement of skills. Bad manners and the same tendencies, whether they bring only harm to others or to the person, are in contradiction with the essence of life in nature is fundamentally contrary to the aims of Qigong. Great danger for those who practice Qigong, are arrogance, arrogance, self-will, hatred, envy, feelings of inferiority, lack of discipline, excessive jealousy, treachery, hypocrisy, duplicity, deceit, meanness and greed. Just getting rid of bad manners and inclinations, clearing his own soul, driving out all the bad and giving up the personal concerns, we can expect rapid progress and the achievement of excellence in craftsmanship. No man minded, selfish, evil and cruel, cunning and secretive because of mental inferiority has never managed to achieve any significant success, and if they succeed, then their triumph was short-lived. In the end, everything ended in failure both for themselves and for others.

  1. Spiritual healers are like a mechanism of the divine, who allow the power of the God to heal through him or her. A good spiritual healer knows that he or she is not really healing and they are just the way or the instrument by which the person seeking healing surrenders to the divine or god.
