Hi,
There was someone who used to engage with the forum, who had this blockage. I haven't spoken with her for awhile. I know it was a difficult blockage for her to release, and I don't know the current status. I know this person received other benefits of practice, as they undertook trying to work through it. Everyone is different too. A particular blockage is a different scenerio for different people.
In general terms, I don't think there is anything that qigong can't improve or irradicate, and more so, there is the fact that you are more than your blockage, and qigong addresses you globally. The tinitus is obvious to you, as it has reared its head, so to speak, but you have several vital organs and systems within your body to care for and maintain a healthy balance. Master Lin as said that, if the system exists, it can be regenerated. I often point out, that it is 'often', easier to maintain a level, keeping it from further decline, rather than, to regenerate. I have no question about the ability to regenerate. It is just that for some people it takes alot of work, and it might not come fast and easy. I don't want to define that part, it is best to not place limits on this.
In qigong, the first step is defining the tinitis, as a blockage. This undercuts the self manifesting aspect, " I have tinitis."
You start to unmanifest it, by referring to it as an energy blockage. It is no different than another type of energy blockage. Just energy, not good or bad, ,, energy you don't need, that has manifested as this blockage. You learn to clear the blockage on a daily basis, constantly removing the 'yin' aspect through your learned technique. The yang aspect, which is the physically manifested part, can't sustain, or hold its form, without the yin part. It is immediate, in theorey , to remove the yin aspect, but , it can take time for the yang part to break down and clear. This all varies from person to person. The source of the blockage is there too. This is also an aspect that can involve some time to work through,,,or not..
As you undo what's manifested, you might be self generating it, for instance, through a negative emotional habit, or the like, at the same time. Again, qigong helps pull you out of that loop, if that is involved.
I don't participate in the other forums, but I know a bit about you. Please forgive me if I am off base, but if you have a strong spiritual background, combining that within this system of qigong, will greatly enhance your ability to heal self and others. Your preference of spiritual source can stay intack, and you can bring it through this template, or healing modality.
Qigong is very powerful when practiced , drawing on spiritual energy. Along with this fact, you also learn alot about yourself as a physical being too, from a different perspective, that involves the Eastern view of the body. Qigong, is the grandfather, or grandmother, of many Eastern healing modalities. It is a very pure, self empowered form, utilizing the same energy centers, pathways, and theorey, involved in, say, accupuncture and herbalogy, for instance.
Bottom line, you can sit and have this blockage, or, try and effect change. There is so much benefit in qigong practice, that you will certainly benefit in many ways.
love,
