Sure the training method is different, but both try to get the same energy- (or Ki-/Chi-/Qi-) full state of being one with the universe while and not being nothing in the universe.
"Living tranquillity" may be a false retranslation, because I have read Tohei in german. (Living silence/calmness/quietness could be also Tohei's orginal words).
quote:
Your interpretation of Tohei Sensei's half, half, half, is very different than what he was talking about.
When Tôhei Sensei speaks about the difference between eastern meditation to western biofeedback methods he says that the biofeedback methods doesn't have "living tranquillity" whereas eastern meditation have.
Sure Tôhei Sensei has in addition also the concept of the Tan Tien /Hara/One Point which differ from Qigong (the Tan Tien exist in Qigong but has not as much importance).
The quoted Ki definition comes from Tohei as answer to a question after a mathematical explanation of Ki.
