II. Reports of the Spiritual Trip to China, October 2005 (Sample Pictures)
Rocky:
Overall I thought it was a great trip. Visiting the different temples and attending the early morning practice was a once in a lifetime experience. I appreciated being able to talk with the abbots and assistant abbots about the Buddist and Daoist philosophy. Eating the vegetarian food was a plus, it gave me a different perspective on good food choices. I also gained a lot of information by talking with the other participants on the trip. The high point for me was the energy that I noticed in the different temples. Most noteworthy was the waves of energy that I received during the early morning practice at the Puji Quanyin Budda Temple in Mt Putuo. I also enjoyed the various tourist sites and finding out about the culture of tea in China.

I participated in the October 2005 China Spiritual Trip with Qigong Master Qinyin. The trip allowed me to resolve tremendous Karma from past lives. This integration of past life Karma produced a very deep grounding in Peace and satisfaction in this life. I very much understand the relationship between personal identification with the small self, mind & ego, the difference between identification with the higher SELF and that karma only comes into play through the identification one has to the small self.
I thoroughly enjoyed meeting many very old trees that were between 400 and 1,000 years old. These trees, in many different Buddhist Temples, have the collective wisdom, knowledge and experience of everything that went on in those temples and were willing to share that Wu with those that were interested and asked. Very cool. I also enjoyed the forests, many forests in China. Very deep and peaceful. The bamboo forests, that I had never seen before were quite wonderful to experience. I was surprised at how spiritual the Chinese people are, given the cultural revolution that took place some years ago. I was delighted to see that the Chinese Government is in the process of restoring temples and returning religion to the people.
John:III. Qigong Student Feedback: Shirley's Miracle of Healing a Stubborn Skin Condition
First, thanks Qigong Master Qinyin who supported my bigu for 72 days (from Oct.15 to Dec.25 2004) last year; it was very successful. I had suffered scleroderma for years, its symptoms seem to have reversed since my bigu. The changes did not immediately show right after bigu. I just noticed that my digestive system changed a lot after bigu. Pain, stomach acid and bloating disappeared and I did not need to take medicine to control those symptoms.
In the Feb. of this year, I went to see my Rheumatology specialist Dr. Arthur M. Bobrove, M.D. (from Palo Alto Medical Foundation). He was so surprised, he said, "Your skin doesn't look like scleroderma's skin," when he checked my upper body. It was because my skin on the upper body had been very thick since I suffered scleroderma in 1998, but Dr Bobrove could pinch my skin very easily at that time. I noticed that my skin has changed a lot. From the Western medicine point of view, scleroderma is a non-reversible immune system disease with an unknown onset and no efficient medical treatment. But the miracle changes happened to me after I started my bigu and practice 3 to 4 hours of Qinyin qigong exercise. Although I still have some symptoms of lung fibrosis, it does not have progressive change (stable). Since then, my health condition has gotten much better than before. From all those positive changes, I realized the benefits of bigu are not only that it significantly reduces body weight, but it gradually increases long term health condition. Bigu gave me a lifetime of benefits. I also have not eaten anymore meat since bigu.
