QiGong , Energy, Aliveness

 So good to be here. So good to be back here  with you guys. I mean talk about energy, right. Energy is what we've been talking about 

很高兴来到这里。 很高兴回到这里和你们在一起。 我的意思是谈论能量，对吧。 能量是什么 我们一直在谈论

love, connection, authenticity, vitality,

right vulnerability and this is all 

爱, 联系, 真实性, 活力,  正确的漏洞，这就是全部

energy. Can you show me love. Can you. Is it in your hands. Is it in your heart, right. We say we've been talking about the heart division did

活力。 你能向我展示爱吗？ 你可以吗。 是不是在你手里。 是不是在你心里，对吧。 我们说我们一直在谈论心脏分裂

such a great exercise about opening the heart and connecting. But if we do open surgery on the heart, we don't see love. We don't see love. So in qigong they say

这是一个关于敞开心扉和联系的伟大练习。 但如果我们对心脏进行开放手术，我们

 看不到爱。 我们看不到爱。 所以气功里面说

life is ruled by invisible energy.

Invisible forces. In the Tao Ching manuscripts, there's a saying,bwe shape clay into a pot but it is the space

 生命是由无形的能量统治的。

 看不见的力量。 道经手稿中有句俗话，将泥塑成壶，却是虚空

emptiness inside that is useful. We take wood and build walls in the house but it's the space inside that's useful And we're creating space. That's what communities like this do

里面的空虚是有用的。 我们拿木头在房子里砌墙，但有用的是里面的空间我们正在创造空间。这就是像这样的社区所做的

they create powerful, positive invisible energy. So everybody's been talking about energy, right.

他们创造强大的、积极的无形能量。 所以每个人都在谈论能源，对吧。

How many people feel energy in their bodies. You know what that feels like, yeah,

有多少人在他们的身体中感受到能量。 你知道那是什么感觉，是,

electric.

So the word in Chinese writing, chi, it simply means energy. It means energy, okay. But it's mystical, this word chi is mystical. It's mysterious and you

电的。所以在中文写作中，气这个词，它只是表示能量。 这意味着能量，好吧。

 但它是神秘的，“气”这个词是神秘的。 这很神秘，而你 

are mysterious. You are mystical because we cannot define you. We can't put you in a box. We can't say this is what you are. This is who you are. You are beyond conceptualization. You're 

很神秘。 你是神秘的，因为我们无法定义你。 我们不能把你放在一个盒子里。 我们不能说这就是你。 这就是你。 你超越了概念化。 你是

beyond definition. You are mysterious, so, chi simply means alive. Aliveness.

It's the aliveness of you but we can't

超出定义。 你是神秘的，所以，气就是活着的意思。 活力。这是你的活力，但我们不能 

define it. All of a sudden your heart starts to beat some 13 weeks in uterus, right. The heart starts to beat but energy

定义它。 突然间你的心脏开始在子宫内跳动大约 13 周，对吧。 心脏开始跳动但能量

if we looked at it from physics, energy should be transformed. It should have some thing that starts it. So the heartbeat is like a match that learned how to light itself 

如果从物理学上看，能量应该是转化的。 它应该有一些启动它的东西。 所以 心跳就像学会了如何点燃自己的火柴

like a match that learned how to light itself but not only that, it regrows and lights itself again and again and again. So your heart is unexplainable. We can't explain it in eastern mysticism nor can we explain it in western science.  

就像学会如何点亮自己的火柴，但不仅如此，它会一次又一次地重新生长并点亮自己。 所以你的心是无法解释的。 东方神秘学解释不了，西方科学也解释不了。

 We don't know what the heart is. We don't know what the invisible. As we look at anything within you, we run into the mysterious. Your mind, your consciousness, your spirit

我们不知道心脏是什么。 我们不知道什么是看不见的。 当我们审视你内在的任何事物时，我们会遇到神秘的事物。 你的思想，你的意识，你的精神

So in Chinese medicine, there's many different kinds of chi. So the hardest part about this 

所以在中医里，有很多种气。 所以关于这个最难的部分

 chi gong : chi means energy, gong really means a skill at working with energy. To be skillful at working with energy inside and outside oneself.

气功：气的意思是能量，功的真正意思是一种技能 在与能量一起工作。 善于运用内外能量。

 What is energy. The mysterious life force energy. So, in the classics of Chinese medicine, the Yellow Emperor's classic of Chinese medicine written some three four thousands years ago, there is described more than 360 different kinds of chi. 

什么是能量。 神秘的生命能量。

 所以, 在中医经典中，黄帝的中国经典大约三四千年前的医学记载，描述了 360 多种不同的气。

there's lots of different kinds of chi. So there's good energy we call that righteous chi, and there's bad energy, we call that pathogenic chi,

气有很多种。 所以有好的能量我们叫正气，有坏的能量我们叫邪气,

it doesn't feel so good.

So one thing about energy is it always transforming from one state to another state. It's always in the process of change and transformation. 

感觉不太好。所以关于能量的一件事是它总是从一种状态转变为另一种状态。它始终处于变化和转变的过程中。

The one thing that is true about this universe that it's moving, it's growing, it's expanding. So things are always changing. So we don't want our energy to get stuck or to get stagnant. 

关于这个宇宙的一件事是真实的移动，它在成长，它在扩张。 所以事情总是在变化。 所以我们不希望我们的能量停滞不前或停滞不前。
