Hey guys been around the forum for a while and decided to finally Join.I just wanted to get peoples thought on a subject i've been studying.let me explain first.about 1 years ago I started to read a book called the "power of the internal martial arts" and was very interested in the martial arts mentioned in their(I had been into the martial arts for a long time) until it mentioned the concept of chi.well after that i didn't think about it for a few weeks but then I started asking myself what is chi(because we know what the chinese think it is but we never here what some in the western science field here say what it might be) and is it what many say it is.well after that I started to research it to see if this energy was really some demonic energy(like some christians believe) or some as simple as bioelectricity of the body.Well after 1 year of research on the subject I came across the most common theory that it is simply the bioelectricity of the body with some very Resonable arguments.

Reasons I'm starting to be conviced that this theory is right:

1.Many of the literature i've been reading of people who have fought people using this style of martial arts say that when they got hit by a punch it felt like they got shocked by a 1000(exageration) volts of electricity.

2.I believe it was oklahoma university(I'll try to get the article for you) that did did test on people who do these arts and they found that all of them had a higher amount of eletricity in their bodys than average people.

now I just want to ask you guys and ladies for your opinions(some quetions might be a little off topic)

1.Is it alright to conduct this research in order find out if chi is legitamently not some demonic force.

2.Do you think that it is legitamently possible that chi could just be bioelectricity or electromagnetism of the body and that the chinese had no way to explain it a long time ago so they just attributted to being some spiritual energy.

3.Is yoga bad.If so then whats bad the movements themselves or the philosphy behind the movements.If its because its from a different religion then why is it that alot a religions do fasting but christians don't say that fastings wrong.

4.let say that later on chi is proven to be bioelectricity or electromagnetism, does'nt that mean that the movements and training are not wrong but the philosphy behind it is wrong.

oh and here is a little bit of the information I found on the subject while i was researching.

Thanks guys
