Japanese point of view about 気（Qi）

From last diary,I got a message about "you should also tell us about how Japanese incorporate 気(Qi) into their daily thinking and actions"

It is little difficult to explain but I’ll explain that.

Before I talk it,why not putting your hand very close(not touch but put close) in front of your face.

Do you feel something from your face?

I think you have might have felt some moisture between your hand and your face.

Japanese consider the feeling Qi(気).(How do you think why massage is effective?

Japanese think the effect is caused by pouring Qi into their body from a massager’s hands.)

Many of Japanese think Qi is a energy which exists in a living thing.

And Japanese believe some special man has a special Qi.(It is very similar like talent to some extent.

All of us have talent to some extent, but the type and level of our talents differs.)

And some aikido masters show big power as though they are very thin(like Shioda).

So many Japanese consider aikido masters having special Qi.

And Aikido master admit that they get special Qi from a hard aikido training because they don’t want to tell the mechanism of how to use big power.

My master often tells me "The secret is strong until you reveal it.

Oh I have betrayed my master, will you keep it a secret?

That’s all thank you for your reading.

I’m afraid you might feel that this article is incomprehensible.

If so, don’t hesitate to ask me at the comment box.
