In enlightened philosophy, one moment in time is the same as every other moment, and one point in space is the same as every other point. (After all, that's the basis for doing distance/group healing sessions, which do not depend on time and space.)If this is true, that time and space are merely illusions, then why do we need to practice things like Qigong "every day"? Why are we encouraged to practice Qigong "as long and as often as possible?" "The more, the better?"
Because we're not enlightened. Yet. 
All those premises of "enlightened philosophy", as you put it, are only experientially true, to one who is actually enlightened. If one isn't, they seem paradoxical, contradictory, hard to understand, etc.
