So many years had spent, I still had not understood the purpose of kungfu practicing. At 1990's I started to practice ZNG (zhinen gong) that was the biggest chigung organization in China at the time. Three year later, I rolled into the study of the subject of Chigung Science. During the studying, I was clear about the truth of kungfu practicing, it is the Inner Practice, is one kind of the practical activities of man. Chinese chigung and traditional martial art, Indian Yoga, they are the forms of the inner practice. In the practice, the practitioners'mind must focus inward to regulate the internal force to link and connect with the natural force by the will power of his/her self to promote the health level and enhance the will power itself. To the inner practice, the most important doing for the practitioners is do to surmount actively the idea of the one-desire and stand the mind for the public in non -location.This is the real purpose to the practitioners of kungfu.
