A SHAMANIC APPROACH TO PRIMORDIAL CHI KUNG – WUJI GONG with Barry Spendlove

PRIMORDIAL CHI KUNG – WUJIGONG 

Hidden inside nature are mysterious and powerful forces.In ancient China, shamans observed that the life force flowing in nature – in the mountains, waterfalls and oceans – was the same life force flowing in human nature, in its body, mind, and spirit. 

An early shamanic alchemist called Chang Sang Fong created a chi kung form that later became famous as Tai Chi Chuan, extremely useful for self-defence. He also created a special form called WujiGong that was mostly kept secret, but was preserved through a lineage of shaman alchemists. 

The magical, graceful movements of this form are designed to gather the chi of life force from the four cardinal directions, from Mother Earth below, and from the Star Father of Heaven above. This chi, when in the body, connects us to the deepest centre of our being, known as Wuji. Wuji literally means supreme unknown, also translated as the primordial or the divine space from which all creation arises. In western terms the Wuji is the godhead from which the primordial powers of nature flow. 

The Tao shamans did not consider that the centre of the universe was above our head but that it was deep inside our body. We invite balance and harmony into all dimensions of our being and all dimensions of our life. We build up a lot of neutral force, a lot of yuan qi. We resonate with the earth qualities of balance, harmony, fairness, openness and trust. 

Primordial Chi Kung is a magical, graceful form and an extremely healing experience that takes us deeply into our own Primordial Essence.
