[Qigong] How I Opened the Ren and Du Meridians
In my practice over the past year, I have never used so-called "intent guidance" or "qi sensation pursuit." I do not practice visualization, do not guide qi, do not focus on the flow of meridians, nor do I deliberately seek "where there is heat" or "where there is qi." I have not experienced the textbook-like sensations of qi rising from the tailbone or connecting through the Baihui point. My body changes not through imagination and guidance, but through structure, movement, and real accumulation. I simply stand day by day in the simplest practices—horse stance, Tai Chi, Tai Chi sword, Xingyi, sitting meditation, Lingzi technique, and Yijinjing qi gathering—opening my hips, relaxing my shoulders, supporting my skeleton, and calming my breath. Without any "qi sensation," I have experienced transformations beyond ordinary imagination in my real body.
Now, at the seaside where the temperature feels only two or three degrees, I can practice in summer clothes for over an hour without feeling cold from the start. After three minutes of practice, I begin to sweat evenly, sweating as usual, with warm hands and feet, and my knees not stiff. After practicing, my body remains warm, and I do not need to add clothing. This state does not come from mental control but is the result of the entire body operating automatically. I do not need to guide qi; it moves on its own; I do not "send qi to the dantian," yet the dantian heats up automatically; I do not focus on "whether the Du meridian rises," but there is a warm current flowing up my back. I am not "sensing qi"; my body is operating on its own: sweat flows out, heat generates itself, hands and feet warm themselves, and body and mind adjust naturally.
Many traditional practices emphasize "intent leading qi," but my path is precisely the opposite: no intent, no leading, no guiding, no sensing, yet I have achieved a more real and stable internal operating system than those who spend all day guiding qi, pursuing sensations, and imagining qi movement. Not a single "point" is triggered by intent; everything unfolds automatically after the structure is in place. This automated circulation of qi and blood, self-regulating body temperature, spontaneous sweating, and warm dantian is the true manifestation of the smooth flow of the Ren and Du meridians—not through thought-led transcendence, but through the body standing up as evidence.
Therefore, to determine whether my Ren and Du meridians are open, it is unnecessary to ask "do I have qi sensation," nor to look at "can I guide qi," but rather to see if I can naturally generate heat, circulate qi and blood, sweat as usual, and remain calm in the cold wind. These phenomena do not rely on subjective imagination but on objective facts. It is precisely because I have never been attached to qi sensations and meridians that I have avoided the greatest pitfall of countless people—mistaking "sensation" for "achievement." I have turned reality into reality. This is the strongest evidence of the smooth flow of the Ren and Du meridians.
