Seeking and Finding Wholeness

Today’s article is actually (a re-post of) a comment that I wrote in response to an article with a Riply’s video from youtube titled “Qigong Master Jo (Zhou) Boils Water With Qi/Chi From His Hands” showing Master Zhou bringing water to a boiling temperature using Qi energy. Find the article and video here.

The following is what I am taking away from reading the string of comments posted by Advisor Matt:

We have two opinions, one is that Master Zhou is authentic the other is that he is using a trick to generate heat (some called hims a fraud).

Against:

The following was offered as an explanation to how the heat-generating trick worked:

“.. Aluminum foil from a cigarette pack, wets is with some Hg2Cl2?
“.. towel had been soaked in the bichloride of mercury solution, then dried; once it has been rehydrated, and the aluminum foil added, the reaction takes place”

and from Eric Zammitt (comment 20) we read

“.. water that he used on the foil and touched it to my tongue. It burned!” The water had a chemical taste. He suggests that a chemical compound was used when he said “Sodium Hydroxide, NaOH, commonly known as Lye, reacts with aluminum and generates great heat”

For:

Many wrote positive comments. From reading the comments, it seems people have met him in person and did not see any evidence of a trick.

Commenter Cyre (comment 24) said “i dipped my fingers in the cup of fluid, smelled it, and even tasted it. As far as my perception stood. It was regular water,” Yet, Mr. Zammitt said these people must have missed the evidence.

Comment 52 says “Master Zhou is for real. The person who claims that he found caustic liquid is lying… I knew Master Zhou for several years and not only received treatments from him but also studied with him. He is an amazing healer and a generous person who teaches everything he knows.”

Comment 53 is from another student that studied with master Zhou and it testifies that Master Zhou is for real. I suggest you read it.

The video does mention that Ripleys provided all materials and they were later tested for chemicals.

It is worth mentioning that none of the comments I saw was against the effectiveness of QiGong with the exception to the mention of “Subliminal Distraction exposure” and how SD “caused mental breaks” leading practitioners especially in group practice to believe in the presence of “superhuman strength”, the comment goes on to mention this can be seen in QiGong or Kundalini Yoga. At this time, I don’t know much about “Subliminal Distraction”, I simply am rephrasing what the comment said.

Both “for” and “against” comments to the authenticity of Master Zhou or the use of chemicals cannot be proven nor discounted by myself. I only have these written words to go by.

I suppose, I’d have to visit with Master Zhou myself and bring my own materials and taste the water. Even better, I can ask him to generate heat without the aluminum foil, water or the towels.

In essence I’d like to experience a similar experience to the one seen in comment 47. Here we read this story: “He said, ‘Mild Chi’ and waved a couple fingers over his knee. My friend said he might have felt something. Then Master Joe said, ‘Medium chi’, and my friend admitted it was feeling warm and hot. Then Master Joe said, ‘High Chi’. He fluttered his fingers and my friend lept from the chair. It freaked him out so much he won’t even talk about”

Eric Zammitt suggests you do the following: “If you really wanted to prove his power in this particular skill you should bring your own prepared wet foil wrapped in paper towel in a zip-lock bag and lay it on yourself without him touching it and ask him to put Qi into it while you keep your eye on it. He’ll refuse. I guarantee it.”

A simpler experiment would be to not use any of the material above, no water, towels, foil etc.. None should be needed. keep the experiment simple.

It is suggested, correctly in my opinion, that if people with ’supernatural abilities’ exist, such as Master Zhou, that these people would not advertise, they’d be ones that do not seek publicity nor money and do their best at healing those who seek their healing.

If a person can heal people, if what he does works, yet science cannot figure out how maybe it simply comes down to lack of scientific knowledge at this time. It is not far fetched to say that science cannot explain everything. This is suggested in a comment that said “He has helped many people and he does not to have to explain it”.

If you want answers for yourself, try these suggestions:

1- Go to a Qi Gong Master (preferably Master Zhou himself), ask him/her to transmit Qi into a certain part of your body, feel what you feel.

No water, towels, foil needed. If you visit Master Zhou he should be able (according to the comments above and common sense) to generate intense heat in your body without using any materials. Try the mild/Medium/High Chi experiment.

You can also, use a remote temperature sensor or an infrared camera to make sure that you are not imagining the heat!? The temperature increase has to be higher and more rapid than one that can produced via the placebo effect/self hypnosis/mind over body.

Record your whole experiment on video. Then post it on youtube!

2- If testing for anti-gravity/weight shift: Ask the whomever claims to reduce weight to stand on a scale and then let him shift his body weight

3- When practicing in a group, avoid Subliminal Distraction exposure.

Also, research Tummo meditation.
