Chi The Sixth Sense

By Dr. Daniel Santos

Chi The Sixth Sense takes the reader on a transformative journey of self- discovery weaving together the realms of Chi Gung, Yoga, Shamanism, psychology, and ancient Chinese philosophy. This book Dr. Santos explores how our cultural matrix is transmitted and imprinted on us via moving and breathing patterns. And how to begin to transcend its suffocating effects. Set against the backdrop of exotic locations and diverse cultural backgrounds, the narrative unfolds in three sections, each spiraling deeper into the exploration of body consciousness. The book introduces a myriad of characters, each offering a unique perspective on accessing body consciousness. For example, Felina, with her captivating life journey, brings forth the concept of "Zen sickness" and the transformative power of Chi Gung in stabilizing mental and emotional well-being. Silvio, a Chi Gung teacher, discusses the intricate connections between awareness, energy, and learned behavior, emphasizing the role of conscious body practices in accessing natural energy flow. Li Ts-e, against the serene backdrop of Wat Umong, shares profound insights into gravity as a force and how it affects our awareness. The narrative explores different bodily postures and delves into the idea that perception extends beyond the conventional five senses. Li Ts-e hints at the "power within us that knows," and also to the all encompassing energy of the Earth around us pointing towards a deeper level of bodily experience. Chapters unfold with rich exploration--Silvio playing with friction toys to illustrate the interconnected concepts of truth, energy, and health. Li Ts-e guiding the narrator through Chiang Mai, exploring the world as pressure and revealing the unique pressures linked to presence. Hollow Bamboo, through a ritualistic tea ceremony, imparts teachings on breath, movement, and Chi awareness. Noi, the freelance software writer and Chi Gung practitioner, draws parallels between the body and a computer system, exploring the impact of our learned behavior on energy flow. Angelique's Chi Gung classes prompt a dialogue on breaking learned behavior patterns through collective movement. The narrative continues to unfold, exploring the significance of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians with Angelique. Veronica imparts insights on body electricity, The Tai Chi Pole, and fluid dynamics, emphasizing their connection to health, disease, and Chi-flow. In the dream-like Chapter 15, the protagonist experiences a vivid dream workshop, symbolizing a profound shift in perception and a path towards wholeness. Li Ts-e's guidance in Chapter 16 delves into ancient Chinese philosophy, redirecting energy flow, and the transformative role of sexuality. The book continues by probing diverse disciplines, examining the boundaries of knowledge-centric and physical approaches. These explorations touch on themes like sexuality and the magical realm of dream creation. We are then taken on a journey exploring consciousness, realization, and the internal force that shapes our authentic path. The book concludes with a profound realization--life's flow proceeds without intervention, highlighting our essence. "The Power of Chi" invites readers to reflect on the intricate connections between internal transformation, external expression, and the timeless rhythms of the Universe.
