<p>It was less than a week ago when I received<br />
this letter from a friend and mentor.<br />
Here is what he said.<br />
“All I want to do when I&#8217;m finished is stare at<br />
The walls or look out the windows. Not moving.<br />
 Not doing anything.<br />
Just looking, taking it in &#8230; and breathing.<br />
Sit and stare straight ahead for long periods<br />
of time &#8230;<br />
Just sitting.  Looking straight ahead.Breathing.<br />
Doing nothing.”</p>
<p>It may sound like he is depressed, on drugs or<br />
just spaced out,<br />
But he is actually in a very high meditative<br />
place of being. The Taoists call that state<br />
of aware “Wu Wei”</p>
<p>&#8220;An action that does not involve struggle or<br />
excessive effort&#8221;.<br />
The concept of &#8220;effortless action&#8221; like<br />
Qi Gong and the Internal Martial Arts.</p>
<p><a href="http://rechargingqigong.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/manjushri.jpg"><img src="http://rechargingqigong.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/manjushri.jpg" alt="" title="Manjushri" width="300" height="345" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-897" /></a><br />
&#8220;Wu&#8221; can be translated as without.<br />
A better way to think of it is as a paradoxical</p>
<p>     “The Action of non-action.”</p>
<p>Non doing is &#8220;what we mean by going with the<br />
grain,rolling with the punch&#8230;&#8221;<br />
- Alan Watts, The Watercourse Way</p>
<p>In China I was given the name of &#8220;Wu Di&#8221;<br />
but when I returned to the homeland,<br />
my spiritual master changed it from Di to Dhi.</p>
<p>Dr.Wu Dhi literally means,</p>
<p> “One who has no Enemies.”</p>
<p>The word &#8220;Dhi&#8221; is taken from the mantra (prayer)<br />
to the deity that Manjushri,the Buddhist god who<br />
stands for wisdom and knowledge,for the most<br />
part the knowledge of linguistics and grammar.</p>
<p>     God knows I need that.</p>
<p>Wu Wei means “Without action, action without action,</p>
<p>      Effortless doing&#8221;.</p>
<p>The aim of Wu Wei is to achieve a state of perfect<br />
equilibrium,or alignment with the Tao and,<br />
as a result, obtain an irresistible form of<br />
&#8220;soft and invisible&#8221; power.</p>
<p>One way to accomplish this state is to practice<br />
the internal exercises like, Qi Gong, Nei Gong<br />
and Shen Gong.</p>
<p>Students that come to me seek that stillness of<br />
mind and internal power.</p>
<p>The Recharging Qi Gong Program.</p>
<p>http://www.rechargingqigong.com/recharging-qi-gong.html</p>
<p>builds the foundations to achieve the state of “Wu Wei”,<br />
like getting the whole puzzle in a big box and<br />
Qi Gong Inner circle programs<br />
http://www.qigonginnercircle.com/ shows you how<br />
all the pieces fit together.</p>
<p>Now is the time to know, knowing when to act<br />
will give you great advantages in your body,<br />
minds and spirit.</p>

<p>The Moon was full; it was around dusk when I met up with the thirty people who gathered in the traditional healing circle in the park. The Ecuadorian Shamanic  &#8221;Fire Ceremony was about to begun.</p>
<p>I have been to many of these events through out the years, but this was a first in Florida for me and the first</p>
<p>with a shaman from South America</p>
<p>I know the importance of Fire Ceremonies and no matter what tradition they come from they open a new</p>
<p>path way for my growth.  The purpose of this ceremony was to let go of old belief structures.</p>
<p>The Shaman blessed the space and welcomed in the Spirit of the sky, earth and the four directions.</p>
<p>We circled the fire and everyone there was getting ready for something  to happen, which would hopefully change his or her life for the better.</p>
<p align="center">The Tibetan Lamas, Daoism Priests and Shamans that I studied with all use fire rituals of some kind.</p>
<p>In fact most native peoples, as well as the Taoist and Buddhist shamans invoke  the Fire element in there secrete rituals.</p>
<p>This  Fire Ceremony was no exception, the Shaman  invoke the four directions, ancestors,</p>
<p>the Earth energies, the universe and the spirit of the fire. This ceremony offers a cleansing of energy</p>
<p>field and patterns of long pending issues.</p>
<p>The goal is re-connecting with our true nature of pure heart-centered consciousness, each one of us  received a shamanic cleansing. This ancient ceremony promoted healing on all levels.</p>
<p>When  coming to the fire circle it is customary to create an offering out of a small stick. Using my breath,</p>
<p>blow this intention or prayer into the offering several times.</p>
<p>One additional offering is then placed in the fire for the Mother Earth.</p>
<p>Each person in the circle will blow their prayers for the planet into the offering</p>
<p>before it is placed into the fire.&#8221;</p>
<p>The four main  ritual that use  fire offerings in the Tibetan system called fire puja :</p>
<p>1.The Peaceful harmonizing  Fire  it  to pacify the results of the three poisons, (worry , struggle and blame) ,</p>
<p>or to clear away obstacles and defilements. It may also be done to avoid  difficulties and illnesses.</p>
<p>2.  Increasing Ritual Fire Offerings can be performed for both one’s own and other’s benefit.</p>
<p>To increase wealth health and happiness</p>
<p>3. A decrease fire can be performed to get ride of obstacles on the path or even pests like rodents,</p>
<p>bugs or snakes. Also  to subdue forces that is harming other sentient beings.</p>
<p>4. A Strong and forceful  puji fire  are performed against harmful forces. In Tibet rituals these were used</p>
<p>to dispel or subdue local disturbances,</p>
<p>All rituals no matter what system or tradition  they come from involve keeping yourself centered and</p>
<p>grounded at all times. I have found that Qi Gong exercises are number one in keeping you grounded</p>
<p>centered and focused. That’s why I encourage all of my students who are interested in spiritual work,</p>
<p>marshal arts or healing to learn and practice internal exercises, like the ones offered in</p>
<p>the Recharging Qi Gong Program.<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.Rechargingqigong.com/" target="_blank">www.Rechargingqigong.com</a> for those of you that have the</p>
