Dr. Pang: A Concise Explanation of the Purpose and Guiding Principles of Zhineng Qigong
The Purpose and Guiding Principles of Zhineng Qigong were drafted and established by Dr. Pang Ming in 1987. They encompass the guiding ideology of Zhineng Qigong, its stance toward traditional qigong, the direction of its innovation, and the ultimate goals it seeks to achieve. This document serves as a consistent, overarching guide to the entire cause of Zhineng Qigong science.
For every Zhineng Qigong practitioner, grasping its Purpose and Guiding Principles is not a trivial matter but one of great importance. It permeates the entire process of practice and directly influences the results of one's cultivation. This is because it serves as the foundation for understanding the theories, principles, and concepts of Zhineng Qigong, and the underlying logic of its methods.
Zhineng Qigong is not merely a collection of methods, nor is it a qigong school in the traditional sense. Rather, it is a complete scientific system for the optimization of life—a pathway for human civilization to ascend to a higher level.
Of course, one may choose to view Zhineng Qigong simply as a method for curing illness and improving health, without concerning oneself with its ultimate goals. However, if you come to understand its Purpose and Guiding Principles, it will undoubtedly bring you many benefits in your study and practice. You will more readily grasp the differences between Zhineng Qigong and traditional qigong, and more readily recognize the superiority of its new theories, ideas, and methods over those of traditional qigong. You will gain a stronger sense of direction and a deeper sense of mission—one that will keep you from easily retreating in the face of difficulties and setbacks, and from being easily confused, misled, or deceived by the dazzling array of doctrines, concepts, and phenomena that abound in the qigong field. In this way, you will be able to apply Zhineng Qigong more safely, more effectively, and more enduringly to optimize your own life, and to walk the path of qigong science with greater steadiness and greater distance.
May every practitioner of Zhineng Qigong find direction, strength, and conviction in its Purpose and Guiding Principles.
