Magic and Chi

Further to what I wrote on Magic, it's funny and not surprising that there will be religious people who would look at this and say, "this is un-christian" or superstition or whatever...

These christians seem to have forgotten that Jesus could do this. Same goes for the Buddhist, Moslems etc. In fact, the inner schools of christian Gnostics, muslim sufism, Vajrayana Buddhist all teach certain techniques that to the ordinary person would appear to be magic. And the higher they "climb" in their spiritual development in these respective schools, it is said that the teachings become more and more similar until it becomes indistinguishable.

Of course, those stauchies will again say Gnostics are not christians, sufis are not muslims, and the vajrayana practitioners are not real buddhist. Well... whatever they want to say-lah. This shows the size of their cup (their context) is just not big enough to contain this fact. Young souls... what to do?

But actually, Magic is nothing more than manipulation of Chi, Ki, Prana, life-force or whatever you want to call it.

Chi is everywhere. Oriental martial arts and traditional medicinal practices uses Chi. They may draw from different points or from the same points (but different names) but essentially it is the same life force.

Take Chinese acupuncture for example: There are thousands if not millions of acupuncture points on our body. Poking a needle into each point or combination of points create certain results as the Chi is moved. In Indian tradition, these acupuncture points are called Chakras. Then why Indian tradition says 11 chakra whereas Chinese tradition says millions? Well, the Indians never said there are only 11. They said there are 11 major chakras. There are actually millions of minor-chakras (read as acupuncture points).

For martial arts, some schools teach that you can kill by hitting certain "pressure point". These pressure points are certain chakras that act as energy pumps etc for our body. Hitting it with immense force creates a power surge within the body that can kill. I will not reveal where this point is for obvious reasons. :-)

There are also certain meditation techniques and yoga techniques that serve to move our Chi in certain way to achieve certain desired outcomes. Take meditation as an example: Meditation is not just sitting there and being aware bla bla bla like what the Buddhist teaches. There are actually many different kinds of meditations for different purposes. Some meditations teaches the practitioner to move chi from chakra to chakra for cleansing or spiritual development etc. Same goes for Yoga. Yoga is definitely not an exercise as we modern people think (and some people get degrees or diplomas in it... sheeesh). It is actually a spiritual practice that will help a person develop spiritually.
Coming back to magic...

Meditation, Yoga, Martial Arts, Energy healing etc... they all use Chi or the manipulation of Chi. All different techniques to achieve different outcomes but utilizing the very basic building block of life - Chi. Our sciences have not yet re-discover this yet. 

This is the realm of quantum physics. When we look at our hand, is it really solid? No, it is actually energy with consciousness vibrating at certain frequency thus appearing solid. 

There are 2 types of energy: 1 is energy with consciousness; 1 is energy without consciousness. And the vibration and blueprint of these energies create whether it is a solid "living" thing, solid non-"living" thing, non-solid non-"living" thing or... non-solid "living" thing (spirits, orang bunion etc). When I say "living" I mean with consciousness.

Magic is nothing more than manipulation of these energies to create the outcome we want albeit within certain universal rules. And this knowledge is indeed dangerous in the wrong hands (black magic) but powerful if used for good (white magic).
