Hi again,
Just some clarification. When Master Lin speaks of energy as energy, not good or bad, from my recollection, it has always referred to blockages, and defining that energy you take out as just extra energy, not good or bad.
Energy, and an energy practice(intention/purpose) are two different things. There are levels of energywork. There is a frequency, or a vibration to energy. Energy, and energy practices, have different levels, and vibrations to them.
The attributes of energy, that come into one's energy practice are different. By attributes, I mean types, like love, or compassion, forgiveness...., or justice, loyalty, courage. These are all higher attributes, but not at the same level, or same frequency. In the practice of martial arts, healing work on self, healing work on others, self practice of raising one's consciousness, etc., different energies and sources come into play. Good or bad wouldn't be a good , or appropriate measure, but, there are differences and levels. Also, from a qigong perspective, we have three dan tiens. The focus in different energy practices, engages with , or utilizes, different dan tiens.
One can pretty easily discern, what one is engaged with, and the type of energy/energies involved.
love,
gallen
