ki, qi, chi, prana = life force, vital energy...
Its purpose is what? If the key is "vital energy," how are we to use it? It flows freely, but what does it mean in terms of being human; of "remembrance"; of karma, dharma, samsaras, moksha, etc.? What are we, but vital energy, and how do we experience this life energy and to what means, especially if the "key" is ki/qi/chi/prana? Does "It" (the Source/Mystery/Unknowable) direct the ki or are we to direct this life force ourselves? If we are to use the ki within as the key, what is the purpose we are to achieve...leave the body; regard the body as a holy temple (temporary?); make a "successful life" using the body/mind to do so; transcend the body knowing it is unreal? If we are to regard the body/mind as an illusion, how precisely does the ki catapult us out of the illusion? And then, what comes of the ki? What relationship is the vital energy to Light?
