"Chi;breath; air; vital energy " even this defintion leaves room for further study. Without breath we die, without air we can't breath, yet our vital energy is composed of the entire process of our bodies biologic function. How then do we define what is "Chi", to me "Chi" has to hail back to the spark of life, is it at conception when male and female join to make one?, or is it at birth when our first breath is taken? And then you have to ask what is the spark that allows a living being, and if not present brings forth a still birth, what is it that offers us the confidence to do, the ability to continue, the spirit to preserver. Chi is in the boulder as much as the tree, is it simply essence, so I continue to struggle with such a simple question, what is chi?
The point . is absolute
