Nei-kung versus Qigong
To make use of movement practices as a means to reflect upon, experience, and apply Daoist philosophical thought is so much more meaningful and deeper than restricting them to fitness or health exercises on a merely physical level.

內功與《老子》裡「損」的觀念
「為道日損。損之又損。以至於無為。」(《老子》第48章)
在上篇文章中我提到《老子》裡有關內功動作與「自然」的觀念。然而跟、觀察及順應其自然的動作卻是聽而容易，做而難。實際上放棄有意識地控制動作、聽任動作、或多或少的觀察及信任存於體內的動作知識是件困難的事。

Gestern bin ich gefragt worden, was man macht, wenn man nach dem Üben der Yin-Yang-Methode Nacken- und Kreuzschmerzen hat. Eigentlich ist es so, dass man durch die Praxis der Yin-Yang-Methode Verspannungen im Nacken-/Schulterbereich Stück für Stück löst und den kompletten Wirbelsäulenraum wieder beweglicher macht. Dies sollte komplett schmerzfrei geschehen. Schmerzen deuten hier daraufhin, dass man die Yin-Yang-Bewegungen ohne das notwendige Feingefühl gemacht hat. Worauf sollte man also achten, damit man nicht genau das Gegenteil dessen bewirkt, was man erreichen möchte?
