SURYADEV Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Jai Rimpoche Nanak Lama Chi and Prana are said to be the same concept. One from India and the other from China. Is the a difference in the way it is cultivated using different methods in both cultures ? ie. yoga, chi kung etc. Is there a different reason to work on this energy given by Chinese and Indian masters? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylitol Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 no, as far as i'm aware it's just for health and enlightenment. Gurmat is beyond manipulating chi etc for enlightenment, we don't need to worry about it and it will sort itself out as Gurmantr is intelligent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silence Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Incase you forgot the khalsa greeting as commanded by dasam pathsha is Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh All things you could possibly want are contained within naam. There is no need to go to other places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dharam Yudh Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Silence, yuo aren't trying to say that only 'Sikhs" can attain mukti are you? Doesnt the majority of Sikhs belive that only Sikhs can attain mukhti? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silence Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Nahin ji, not what i was saying (in this topic anyway). Regardless of whether or not the others can achieve mukti, once we have sold ourselves to Guru Sahib there is no other place to go. If someone wishes to partake in the methods of other paths then they can go join that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaheediyan Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I think people here should read the topic carefully before making 'out of context' comments. Jattboots question was a scientific one, not a spiritual one, most of the replies here are irrelevant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekhane'ch Jannat Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Baba Shaheediyan ji! Pray tell us, lost souls, what is the difference between science and spirituality. I feel much doubt in this area needs to be cleared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylitol Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 yoga (such as kundalini yoga) and chi kung are two very different methods so yes there is a difference in their cultivation. Speaking with a chi kung teacher, a martial arts grandmaster who had taught the chinese wushu olympic team and the canadian team as well, he said that yoga was better for enlightenment than chi kung when someone asked him. To be honest, i'm more familiar with chi gong than with yoga. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaheediyan Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 S'puther Ji, Not wanting to get entangled in a war of defintions - an admittedly over-simplified answer would be sansaari vidya Vs atmik vidya - knowledge of the body Vs knowledge of the soul. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
