Hi Chris, thanks for the memory jog! Seems like our Markess was the only one who expressed concern for tying up the resources of the tree so I guess I'll have to ask him why he thinks that?

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
Chris, Gil, James et al, I don't recall reading on this list in discussion about trees as broadcasters that this was an additional burden on the trees. Do you recall who's post that was? Also, don't you think those tai chi practitioners are using chi from universal source, and not Nature, nor the void?

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
Dear gil, There is a very interesting anecdote of Frank Moody which may indicate that trees can not only act as transmitters , but also may have some extra form of consciousness than most people would attribute to them. The story goes like this: Frank was called in to see what was the problem in the 19 story Price Waterhouse building in Auckland. Staff absenteeism and illness was way above what you would reasonably expect. Initial indications led Frank to believe that the building had been built on a geopathic stress point, however this did not prove to be the case. He drew a diagram of the area and dowsed that the problem was emanating from a large tree that had been left in front of the building with a staghorn fern tied to it. Also the electricity main conduit ran through the roots of the tree. The deva of the tree was feeling pretty malevolent towards these people who were parasites in it's energy field. A short discussion with the deva indicated that if Frank removed the staghorn fern, tied some of the right coloured embroidery cottons, cut to the right lengths around the electrical conduit out of the transformer, the deva would be happy. The result was that after that everyone agreed that the building was a very pleasant environment to work in, and absenteeism was reduced to virtually nil. Just a few pieces of cotton in the most judicious place was enough to stop the radiation problems of the electromagnetic fields from the computers and to counteract the effects on the deva. Had you heard that story. Maybe you have some other of Frank Moody's exploits that you could share. Look forward to seeingyou again soon.

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
I am familiar with research identifying some trees working as receiving antenna and used a digital multimeter to see that this seems to be the case, but have not come across any on them acting as a transmitter, but do not question it could be the case. Has anyone got some actual experiments to share or are we in conjecture? Has anyone looked at the relationship between the particular tree and earth energy occurrences? Is it speculated to be specie specific or location specific? How and where are the Preps placed? Is the Tree's "doorway" (as promoted by Frank Moody) involved?

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
Hi Tony & Chris et al, I do not "get" how using a tree as a broadcaster would be "taking over a tree". Why wouldn't the preps act as a nourishment for the tree at the same time that it is 'doing' what it always does? Isn't a tree always broadcasting in a sense?

Chris - Yes, I get your point about taking over a tree to act as a broadcaster. My main thought, as a rather junior practictioner of T'ai Chi - Chi Gung, was that the Chi has to come from somewhere and I'm not really harming the natural environment as a whole in my practice by drawing it in, especially as at least a large proportion of it is quickly released. There must be a limit to the amount that can be stored - and can one be said to destroy it by using it ?Tony N-S.

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
Tony, >surely the whole point about Chi is that you >cannot retain it; you may 'gather' it but it's only >passing through. I am hesitant to completely agree with that. It certainly seems like there is a part of the energy that you keep, and in fact the GrandMaster above me (teacher's teacher and disciple of the legendary Chen Fake,who could send people sailing when they touched him)states that there something like a crystal behind your navel (dan tien) that you condense your accumulated chi into. The measure of your length and intensity of practice is the concentration of energy in this spot. For me, probably the most significant addition to my practice (previously Wing Chun Kung-Fu and Chi Kung) was the focus on gathering and retaining much of the energy you generate during static chi kung and moving form (called "nurturing your energy"). I could whip up strong energy but leaked it away with too much fajing (explosive energy) and no gathering and condensing excercises. On the other hand, there must also be a part of the practice that attunes you to the flow of energy and makes you more efficient at channeling (say from the ether or from the ground or air, depending on circumstances) energy in an instant. There, the concept of "passing through" seems appropriate. The "parasitical" part of my thought is related to previous discussion on tying up the energy resources of a tree in order to broadcast your preps, instead of building a broadcaster. And it is a bit abstract. The acummulating and storing idea may seem materialistic, but we are material creatures in our bodies. I imagine a combination of the two perspectives (accumulating vs. channeling) result in the net effects of Tai Chi practice.

Re: Gathering Chi (was re: agrisynthesis...)
Chris - surely the whole point about Chi is that you cannot retain it: you may 'gather' it, but it's only passing through. Thus it can scarcely be 'parasitic' to obtain it from natural surroundings - it returns to them soon enough ! Tony N-S.
