In November 2009, Tian Gong’s International volunteer teaching team arrived in Peru for their 3rd visit. They brought Universal love and Tian Gong's Universal healing techniques to Central and South America. This video is a summary of the trip.
The increasing number of illnesses caused by the new H1N1 virus (Swine Flu) is greatly unsettling humans worldwide. Worry is most amplified amongst people whose work and lifestyles bring them into direct contact with known high-risk areas: airports, hospitals and schools. This heightened state of rumination though serves as a poor advisor, as negative emotions such as fear and worry weaken the immune system and paralyze the flow of life energy. It is better then to become active, and to ask oneself "what can I do“?
Not everybody who meets an infected person is automatically taken ill. Those with a strong immune system will hardly develop any symptoms at all or their illness may pass easily and within a short time. By regularly strengthening one’s immune system diseases can be prevented. This is the great foundational truth behind Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). One of its three pillars (outside herbal medicine and acupuncture) is Qi Gong - a practice system which assists in teaching individuals how to take an active role in supporting one’s health. The Tian Gong Institute has created particularly simple, easy-to-learn Qi Gong practices that can be carried out in everyday life. The positive medical impact from Tian Gong’s methods are recognized [in Germany] where many health insurance companies reimburse practitioners for a portion of their course fees.
As of now scientists and researchers have yet to make enough vaccine available against this strain. Though this is unfortunate, it is always advisable to make do with as few medications as possible, thereby decreasing one’s exposure to negative side effects. Increasing the immune system naturally will give the benefits of flu resistance without harmful side effects. Learning exercises which assist in strengthening the functional circle* of the lung are one such example. We particularly recommend the basic exercises of A1-3 (Lung Qi Gong) and A1-1 (Bronze Bell Qi Gong) as well as the advanced exercise A2-1 and energy transmissions received from Tian Gong masters.
During Tian Gong’s course for learning Lung Qi Gong exercises, energy transmissions are given to students by both the masters and certified instructors who have studied beneath them; these transmissions further strengthen bodily functions and improve immunity. We have already received feedback reports by participants in the United States in regard to the effectiveness of the exercises and energy transmissions [against Swine Flu contamination]. In the month of May 2009, Master Tian Ying gave several energy transmissions to students in the U.S. in order to eliminate negative Qi from the body and to enhance positive Qi. According to feedback reports from participants that showed symptoms of the virus, their symptoms quickly diminished upon receiving these transmissions when combined with their own diligence in practicing the exercises. Thus Tian Gong’s methods can be very effective in both preventing infection and quickly diminishing already existing symptoms of illness.
More and more Tian Gong practitioners are experiencing positive effects in their daily practice, demonstrating the worth in actively taking personal responsibility for one’s own health. It is better and easier to prevent an illness in comparison to curing one. With that outlook Traditional Chinese Medicine can be seen as an effective means in continual health. However we must also become active in our own roles as self-healers. As said before: Fear is not only unnecessary, but also weakens our life energy. Let us learn to strengthen the positive energy in ourselves, in order to resist all internal/external influences which cause illness - in this current case the H1N1 virus.
Simple positive changes in behavior additionally support our immune system, e.g. to smile as often as possible and to be grateful and loving towards positive encounters. Physical movement outdoors in fresh air is a preventive step as well and should not be underestimated. We have received important knowledge on how to protect ourselves in this time of pandemic, so let us commit to creating health and reknewed vitality in ourselves so that we may assist in the healing of others and this Earth.
Recommendations for Tian Gong Practitioners
For preventative purposes practice Bronze Bell (A1-1) and the Lung Qi exercise once daily. It is recommended to pat the lungs and to make circular strokes over the kidneys often. If you are uncertain or have forgotten the precise way in how this is done, ask our team, we look forward to helping you! If you have already manifested beginning symptoms of the illness - practice each exercise at least twice per day. During meditation you can send love and gratitude towards your lungs and kidneys (most effectively done through Celestial language - a language of the soul).
Another very valuable Tian Gong exercise is the „celestial shield“. This belongs within the advanced exercise courses and gives the practitioner the means to cultivate an protective energetic shield. The protective characteristics include the following:
- Protection against causative organisms of illness and epidemics (e.g. bird flu, swine flu) and/or lessening the course of the illness in the case of current infection.
- Protection against damage and illness of the respiratory systems including the skin.
- Protection against polluted air and allergens.
- Protection against external injuries and a diminishing of physical pain.
- Protection against extreme temperatures (i.e. cold and heat, fire and water).
- Protection against radiation (e.g. mobile devices, xrays, microwaves) and the illnesses caused by them.
- Protection against negative energy and sick Qi from patients (important for therapists).
- Protection against negative thoughts and curses put upon you from others.
- Protection against the harmful effect of electromagnetic fields and chemicals.
- Strengthening one’s resistance/immunity in cases of catastrophy and natural disasters.
This valuable exercise of the energetic protective shield was received by Tian Gong from the Universe several years ago with the onset of bird flu amonst humans. Many participants have shared positive experiences with us regarding this practice since. It is important we continue this exercise and spread the teachings and thereby benefits further.
On August 1 and 2, 2009, the Celestial Breathing and Celestial Shield Combination Workshop is being held by Master Tian Ping in Berkeley, California. For those who are not able to attend this workshop, there maybe 2 more offered this fall.

*the functional circle refers in Traditional Chinese Medicine to vertebrae, organs, meridians that are linked energetically to one another. The functional circle not only connects to body structures, but also to psychic qualities. Our organs have corresponding emotions as well as earth and planetary elements. The lung for instance is related to the earth element metal and is known as the organ of orderliness and righteousness.
