“	As opposed to someone being really gullible and open to the power of suggestion who would tell themselves that they felt something even if there was nothing at all...	”

Well I have no problem with you thinking that, but I wasnt told what was going to happen, and I wasn't expecting to feel what I did, I thought it would just be heat or something. Also you often hear about it

“	Sure, do a search on James Randi JREF IIG Paranormal Challenge You will surely find something. There are quite a few orgs that are offering rewards like these but JREF is now up to 1 million dollars.	”

Ah yes, i did come accross him while searching after my post. I don't think there is anything paranormal about qi, i think it just a metaphor for natural occurances

“	Either way, that's entirely different. Someone getting a feeling themselves from doing something and transmitting energy with no physical contact to another person are entirely 2 different things.	”

Yes I agree, I am just interested to know how much of it (if any) that you do believe

“	Originally Posted By: ChiBeast Its two very different things. Its true that things happen during Tai chi and Chi Kung practice. I've gotten heat, tingleing, a kind of a stacking feeling thats realy hard to describe and these little electric shocks in joints.	”

I have never got a 'shock' whilst doing qi gong (not yet anyway). Tingling is normal, I dont think its chi though, I believe it has something to do with increased oxygen in the blood, but I cant remember to be honest. The feeling I am talking about is kind of magnetic, it feels like their is some resistance in the air, like you are moving your hands through water (except without the wetness).

EDIT: Misread your post ChiBeast, have fixed my reply now though
