The Difference Between Knowledge and Wisdom

Progression in learning knowledge is like a linear line going up and up. It’s about logic, thinking with the frontal lobe of the brain. You learn existing solutions to past problems.
To practice qigong is not about learning knowledge. It’s about opening up wisdom. It’s about rising creativity and intuition. Qigong practice develops the back lobe of the brain, the areas of the brain that’s not about thinking and knowledge. It’s about coming up with creative solutions when new problems occur. When one has wisdom, one never needs to worry about the future. High level scientists such as Einstein came up with equations that other scientists are still trying to come up with logical explanations for their existence and usage. High level artists often have done their best work when inspirations came from somewhere outside of logic and thinking. Best writers always talk about how the stories came through them. They were just the vessel. Even top athletes reach beyond known knowledge of human limitations, and achieve states of being that seemed before impossible by logic.
Qigong learning therefore, does not follow a linear progression. Practitioners find themselves from one plateau reach a higher one suddenly. This usually happen in intense period of time in their lives. Almost all ZY Qigong students find themselves reaching a higher plateau during their intensive practice at the Shaolin Monastery in China. Long after the intensives, we still feel and observe changes in many areas, physically, energetically and mentally.

Newspaper ads became the rage. Android phones have extra features and applications that really keep you entertained whole day long. According to the type of application, anemometers are made as hot wire anemometers or pocket weather anemometers, all of these anemometers can measure air velocity and air pressure. The information provided is not intended to create, and viewing of this information does not constitute, an attorney-client relationship. Some hydrometers only measure specific gravity, but most of them measure three things: SG, potential alcohol (P.A.), and sugar content.
