	The Epoch Times \| Commercial Chinese "Valentine's Day" Irks Purists
		On Monday, China marked Qi Xi festival, a Chinese Valentine's Day, in which, in folklore, a cowherd and a weaver girl are said to have been transported to the heavens to become stars after an ill-fated love affair.
		But as romantic as it sounds, Qi Xi was never celebrated in the name of love, said Liu Zongdi, a scholar on folklore studies.
		Others were less enthusiastic, saying Qi Xi lacked the commercial pull for young Chinese of the Feb. 14 Valentine's Day, which is widely celebrated in China.

	Tiantian Qigong - Get to Know Your Energetic Body
		Postnatal qi (hou tian qi): this is the qi we acquire after we are born and throughout our lives.
		We are constantly acquiring postnatal qi without realizing it: from the food we eat, from the liquids we drink, and from the air we breath (each time you inhale, your lungs absorb fresh qi, and each time you exhale, you expel spent qi).
		When there is not enough postnatal qi available, the body takes a little bit of prenatal qi and converts it for use, much like the way the bank transfers funds from the savings account if we make a mistake in our checkbook's math and don't have enough money to cover a check we've written.

		Broad meaning of “qi” specializes in the general characteristics while the narrow one specializes in the definite characteristic therefore broad meaning embodies the narrow meaning and the later expresses some characteristics of the former (general characteristic) so are the other things in the world.
		The “qi” in “qigong”, which is from yet mingled in the “qi” in space, is of the most spiritual kind.

		But if you reason about it, it is like li comes first and qi comes after." He then asked, "How does li manifest itself in the qi?" Zhu Xi answered, "When it comes to yin and yang and the five phases mixing together yet not losing their sequence, that is due to li.
		Furthermore, if the li could not be abstracted from its particular embodiments in the qi, then the words of the sages could only express what was appropriate in the particular contexts that the sages themselves were in; their words, in that case, would not be intrinsically applicable to our own situations.
		Nonetheless, as we shall see, it distinguishes Zhu Xi from the School of Mind philosophers that he regards the texts of the classics as having significant applicability outside of their original contexts.

		The "Qi" gathers in the Lower Dan Tian and passes around the body naturally, with a relaxed breath.
		When you receive the "energy" or "qi" that has been focused and gathered, stand in the center of the circle and meditate with your eyes closed, for several minutes.
		It is the same idea as the "Diao Tian Qi" (Falling from Heaven Qi) healing practice, previously taught by Master Lao, where you imagine your hand becoming as large as the Universe and filling with energy.
