0:00Like you can touch me.
0:02Like this. It's nothing, okay? It's my
0:04bone.
0:06Ah, just [clears throat] like this.
0:08Our sound recordist Semi was skeptical
0:11at first.
0:15>> [laughter]
0:18[clears throat]
0:20>> Later he told us that anybody could
0:22learn this. God had given us all the yin
0:24yang clarity.
0:26But it takes discipline and meditation
0:28to awaken and control it.
0:33And you must be very aware of your
0:34emotions.
0:39This energy can be dangerous.
0:42It can kill as well as heal.
0:45>> [music]
0:48>> Projecting chi from the palm of the hand
0:50can also be used to resist rifle
0:52pellets, he says.
0:56>> [music]
1:03>> What you have just seen is not a scene
1:05from fiction.
1:06The man appearing in those images is
1:08John Chang, a master of a very little
1:10known tradition called Mopai.
1:13A practice that is part of something
1:15broader,
1:16internal alchemy.
1:19A system that has its roots in ancient
1:21Chinese Taoism where it is known as
1:23Neidan, and that for centuries has
1:25sought to understand, refine, and direct
1:28the energy of the human body from
1:29within,
1:30>> [music]
1:31>> the chi.
1:33Then he asked for our newspaper.
2:05>> For centuries, this knowledge was kept
2:07hidden.
2:08Passed quietly from master to student
2:10within small, secretive circles far
2:13beyond the reach of the Western world.
2:16That is why footage like what we've just
2:18seen is so rare.
2:20>> [music]
2:20>> These practices were almost never meant
2:22to be shown publicly.
2:24But beyond the mystery and spectacle, a
2:27bigger question remains.
2:29What is really happening here?
2:31>> [music]
2:32>> Where does this energy come from?
2:34And what could human beings be capable
2:36of if we truly learned how to sense it,
2:39control it, and direct it?
2:42In the early 1980s, a group of
2:44documentary filmmakers [music] traveled
2:46deep into Indonesia after hearing rumors
2:49about a healer with abilities that
2:50seemed almost impossible.
2:53Their goal was simple, yet incredibly
2:55ambitious.
2:57To capture on camera, for the very first
2:59time, the abilities of John Chang, a
3:02master of the Mopai tradition, who
3:04claimed he could generate real
3:06bioelectric energy from within his own
3:08body. What they witnessed left everyone
3:11speechless.
3:13>> [laughter]
3:16>> Chang not only performed acupuncture by
3:19transmitting powerful electrical
3:20discharges through the needles,
3:22but he also seemed capable of igniting
3:24paper with his hands,
3:26moving objects without touching them,
3:29and even piercing a solid wooden table
3:32with a simple plastic toothpick. So, I
3:34invited a small group of scientists back
3:36from the United [music] States with
3:37measuring equipment to test if DJ was
3:41for real.
3:43And if so, where might this energy
3:45belong on the electromagnetic spectrum?
3:48Years later, the team returned
3:50accompanied by a group of scientists who
3:52attempted to measure and analyze these
3:54phenomena using different instruments.
3:57They witnessed the demonstrations
3:59firsthand without finding a clear
4:01explanation or evidence of fraud.
4:04However, after displaying his abilities
4:06on camera,
4:08something happened that changed
4:10everything.
4:11According to his own testimony, John
4:13Chang was visited throughout an entire
4:15night by his already deceased master who
4:19severely reprimanded him for having
4:21violated the strict taboos of his
4:22lineage.
4:24Deeply impacted, Chang made a radical
4:26decision
4:28to cut all contact with the outside
4:30world.
4:31He disappeared from the public scene,
4:33forbade any new recordings, and withdrew
4:36completely swearing never to show his
4:38abilities to the public eye again. And
4:41for years,
4:42>> [music]
4:42>> nothing more was known about John Chang.
4:46His story faded back into mystery.
4:49No new recordings surfaced, and he made
4:51no public appearances
4:53until recently when Mel Gibson appeared
4:56on the The Joe Rogan Experience and
4:58shared a story as surprising as it was
5:01fascinating.
5:02I used to have a chi gong master. This
5:04is what
5:05kind of blows my mind about
5:08medicine and about
5:11>> [music]
5:11>> ancient stuff.
5:13And he'd come in and he could like point
5:15at you
5:16right from this far away and you'd feel
5:19it.
5:20>> [music]
5:20>> But like feel it like to the as palpable
5:23as someone pushing you around. It's like
5:26Really?
5:26>> Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not kidding.
5:28What's interesting about this testimony
5:30is that it doesn't describe a vague or
5:32subjective sensation.
5:35According to Mel Gibson, what he
5:37experienced was something physical and
5:39direct.
5:40He wasn't talking about imagining
5:42energy,
5:44but about feeling a real force
5:46as if something invisible were
5:48interacting with his own body. And
5:50what's most striking is that according
5:52to his account, no contact was needed.
5:56But what happened next was even more
5:58unsettling.
6:01He uh one time he was working on me and
6:04he was
6:06working on my liver. He said, "Your
6:07liver's blocked." Cuz he looks at you.
6:11And if you look at him, he looks away.
6:12>> [music]
6:12>> And his wife engages you while he checks
6:14you out. And then he gives you a little
6:16body map and he puts X's all over it and
6:18you go, "Yeah, that's right. I got a
6:19pain here and a thing there." And I you
6:21know, he knows where everything is.
6:23One day he's at me on my back and he's
6:25pushing and I can feel my back go and
6:27I'm at the wall. He hit me he started
6:30yelling at my organ, at my liver. Like,
6:33"Get out." You know, whatever. And I I
6:36went up the wall and there was like 8 in
6:38of air under my heels
6:40and I was up the wall and I was like,
6:42"Whoa." And I came back down. It freaked
6:44me out.
6:45There are others like it. Oh, yeah, he's
6:47not the only one. He learned it from
6:48somebody and I think he I think he
6:51imparted some knowledge. [music] To
6:52truly understand what we are seeing in
6:54cases like that of John Chang or in the
6:56experience described [music] by Mel
6:58Gibson,
6:59we have to stop thinking of chi as
7:01something mystical
7:03and start seeing it as what many
7:04traditions describe,
7:06a universal force.
7:09The ancient Taoists sought to uncover
7:11the origins of life and existence.
7:14Through centuries of external
7:16observation and internal introspection,
7:19they came to the conclusion that all
7:20forms of life were founded on a single
7:23principle,
7:25a kind of energy that animated them.
7:28For the ancients, chi was not just
7:30something that circulates within the
7:32body,
7:33but the energy that fills and sustains
7:35everything that exists.
7:38This principle is explained in Taoism
7:40through what is known as the three
7:41powers or sun sai.
7:44Heaven,
7:46earth,
7:47and human.
7:48The chi of heaven refers to the forces
7:50that act from above,
7:52the light of the sun, the influence
7:54[clears throat] of the moon, natural
7:56cycles, and even the radiation of the
7:58stars.
8:00Everything that in one way or another
8:02conditions life on earth.
8:05The chi of earth, on the other hand, is
8:07related to the planet's magnetic field,
8:10the energetic currents that run through
8:12the ground, and the invisible patterns
8:14that structure the environment in which
8:16we live. And finally,
8:18there is the chi of human,
8:21your energy,
8:22>> [music]
8:22>> a dynamic system that is in constant
8:25interaction with those two forces.
8:28From this perspective, the human being
8:30is not an isolated system,
8:32but a point of connection between heaven
8:34and earth,
8:36a living bridge.
8:38And this is where everything begins to
8:40make sense.
8:42What science today describes as
8:43bioelectricity
8:45>> [music]
8:45>> could simply be a modern way of
8:47understanding that same phenomenon,
8:49a flow of energy generated through
8:52breathing and nutrition,
8:53>> [music]
8:54>> but which, according to these teachings,
8:57can be directed by something even more
8:59powerful,
9:01the mind. That is why when someone
9:03learns to cultivate chi,
9:05>> [music]
9:05>> they are not doing anything
9:06supernatural.
9:08They are learning to regulate their own
9:10system and optimize that internal flow
9:13so that the body can function in the
9:15most efficient way possible. [music]
9:20Energy, understanding of energy
9:23is
9:23>> [music]
9:24>> understanding of body and spirit at one
9:28time,
9:29same sense.
9:30>> [music]
9:32>> And understanding energy is
9:36is
9:38the guide
9:40guide [music] for you, the guide
9:42of your life
9:45including your physical manifestation
9:48[music] and spiritual
9:50manifestation.
9:58If chi is the energy that connects
10:00heaven, [music] earth, and the human
10:02being,
10:03the question becomes clear.
10:05>> [music]
10:05>> How does it function within us?
10:07And how can we improve its quality and
10:09flow?
10:11The ancient Taoists explained it simply.
10:14Everything in the universe moves between
10:16two opposite and complementary forces,
10:19yin and yang. This ancestral symbol is
10:23not just a philosophical idea, it is a
10:25map of energy in action. It represents
10:28the moment when the original unity
10:30divides into two fundamental polarities,
10:34positive [music] and negative, and shows
10:37how this duality shapes everything
10:39[music] that exists, including the human
10:42body. The human body is not just matter,
10:44[music]
10:45it is the visible manifestation of
10:46something invisible, energy in motion.
10:50It is a living, dynamic system organized
10:53around a central axis,
10:55>> [music]
10:55>> the spine. Along this axis, the Taoists
10:58identified three main energy centers
11:00[music] known as dantian or fields of
11:04the elixir,
11:05the upper, [music] the middle, and the
11:07lower.
11:09The upper and lower centers [music] form
11:11a fundamental polarity within the body.
11:14The upper dantian, located in the head,
11:17is associated with consciousness,
11:19>> [music]
11:19>> perception, and subtle energy.
11:22The lower dantian, located in the
11:24abdomen, is considered the center where
11:26energy accumulates and is stored.
11:29One defines the quality of energy and
11:32the other the quantity.
11:34And both are connected through the
11:35central axis, functioning as a single
11:38integrated system. When these centers
11:40are in balance, energy flows smoothly.
11:43The body responds and the mind
11:45stabilizes.
11:46>> [music]
11:47>> When the balance is broken, however,
11:49energy begins to scatter. This is where
11:52ancient wisdom meets modern
11:54understanding.
11:55The body can also be seen as a living
11:57electrical system.
11:59>> [music]
11:59>> Each cell functions like a tiny battery,
12:02generating energy from oxygen, from
12:04food, and from the way we breathe. The
12:06body is in constant renewal.
12:09>> [music]
12:09>> Millions of cells die and are born every
12:12day.
12:13The quality of this process depends
12:15largely on the energy available and how
12:17it circulates within us.
12:19This is not an abstract concept. It is
12:22part of everyday life.
12:27Internal medicine.
12:29Since ancient times, Eastern traditions,
12:32Taoism, Buddhism, and Hinduism have
12:35conceived the body as a sacred
12:37laboratory.
12:38A microcosm that reflects the universe.
12:41While the West considers consciousness a
12:43byproduct of matter, the East teaches
12:46the opposite.
12:47>> [music]
12:47>> Consciousness shapes form within us.
12:50Every thought and emotion has a direct
12:52effect on the flow of internal energy.
12:55Fear, tension, or anger block chi.
12:59Calm, gratitude, and love restore it.
13:02Our consciousness acts as a quantum
13:04observer,
13:05>> [music]
13:05>> collapsing infinite possibilities into
13:08the concrete experience toward which we
13:10direct our attention.
13:12Therefore, training the mind is also
13:14training energy.
13:16Each [music] deep breath, each focused
13:19thought, each conscious act becomes a
13:22form of internal alchemy,
13:25a refinement in which the dense
13:27transforms into the subtle and the
13:29material into the spiritual. [music]
13:32Science calls it coherence.
13:35Taoism calls it harmony.
13:37>> [music]
13:37>> And in both cases, the result is the
13:40same.
13:42When energy flows freely,
13:44>> [music]
13:44>> the body heals, the mind clears,
13:48and the spirit rises.
13:51The human body is a reflection of the
13:52spirit, a node of individual
13:55consciousness that manifests in the
13:57dense planes of reality.
14:00Our essence descends from subtler
14:02levels, such as the planes of light or
14:04the astral,
14:06until it materializes in physical
14:08matter.
14:09Thus, the body is a projection of
14:11consciousness,
14:12a visible expression of energy vibrating
14:15at higher levels.
14:17This implies that many times illness is
14:20nothing more than a blockage in the
14:22subtle body,
14:23an interruption in the energetic flow
14:26that over time densifies until it
14:28manifests [music] physically.
14:30True healing begins at the energetic
14:33level.
14:34By releasing blockages, chi flows again,
14:37and the body responds by regaining its
14:39natural balance.
14:41The flow of energy between the dantian
14:43constitutes the heart of Taoist internal
14:46alchemy, neidan.
14:49When sufficient heat is generated in the
14:51lower dantian as a result of the
14:53interaction between the fire of the
14:55heart and the water of the kidneys,
14:58vital essence, jing,
14:59>> [music]
15:00>> transforms into chi energy.
15:03This energy rises to the middle dantian,
15:06where it merges with shen, and finally
15:09reaches the upper dantian,
15:11>> [music]
15:11>> becoming light or spiritual energy.
15:14The goal of Qigong and internal alchemy
15:17is to develop this process,
15:20to enhance energy within the body,
15:22increase the circulation of chi, and
15:25achieve harmony between body, mind, and
15:28[music] spirit.
15:29The health and vitality of the
15:31individual depend on the quantity and
15:34quality of energy present in these
15:36[music] three dan tien. Furthermore,
15:38these energy centers correspond to the
15:40chakras of Hinduism, and the process of
15:42raising and transmuting energy is
15:45reminiscent of the ascent of Kundalini
15:47in the Hindu tradition, where vital
15:49energy is purified and elevated toward
15:52higher consciousness.
15:53This is where one of the most powerful
15:55[music] and accessible tools appears,
15:58breathing.
16:00Breathing is not merely taking in air.
16:03It is a way to influence the flow of
16:05energy and learn to guide it
16:06consciously.
16:08Anyone can practice this through
16:09specific breathing techniques.
16:12Energy blockages [music] can be removed,
16:14energy flow can be strengthened, and
16:16even deeper states of consciousness
16:17[music] can be accessed.
16:20If the body functions like an electrical
16:21system, most of us operate with the
16:24battery at minimum. Not because energy
16:26is lacking, in fact, we are surrounded
16:29[music] by it, but because we have never
16:31learned to generate it, store it, and
16:34make it circulate consciously.
16:36When some [music] masters like John
16:38Chang seemed to demonstrate something
16:40extraordinary, in reality, what they had
16:43developed was a deep understanding of
16:45this internal system and the ability to
16:47regulate it at will.
16:50In [music] this line, the work of Yang
16:52and
16:54[music] promoter of Chinese internal
16:56arts for decades, describes this process
16:59as a progressive path, a kind of
17:01internal engineering that transforms the
17:04way energy is organized within the body.
17:06[music]
17:06Everything begins with the breath, not a
17:09superficial or automatic breath,
17:12but a conscious, deep, [music] and
17:14subtle process.
17:16In Daoist traditions, there is mention
17:18of what is called embryonic [music]
17:19breathing,
17:21a state in which the breath becomes so
17:22fine that it is barely perceived, as if
17:26the body were breathing by itself,
17:28returning to its embryonic origin.
17:31As the mind descends toward the abdomen
17:34and attention stabilizes in the lower
17:36Dantian,
17:37energy stops dispersing
17:39>> [music]
17:39>> and begins to accumulate.
17:42It is a process of gathering, of
17:44returning to the center [music]
17:46where mind and body gradually unify,
17:49which in these traditions is described
17:51as the integration of spirit with
17:53energy,
17:54shen and chi.
17:56When this foundation is consolidated,
17:59energy begins to move naturally,
18:02giving rise to what is known as the
18:03microcosmic orbit.
18:06The ancients described this phenomenon
18:08as an internal circuit that runs along
18:10the central axis of the body, ascending
18:13through the spine and descending along
18:15the front.
18:17It should not be understood as a simple
18:19visualization,
18:20but as a flow that awakens as the system
18:23regulates itself.
18:25Through this circulation, blockages
18:27begin to release and the body regains
18:30greater internal coherence.
18:33Over time, this movement expands and
18:35evolves into what is called the
18:37macrocosmic orbit.
18:39Energy stops concentrating only on the
18:42central axis
18:43>> [music]
18:43>> and begins to extend toward the
18:45extremities, reaching the hands, feet,
18:48and deeper tissues,
18:49>> [music]
18:50>> and ultimately fusing with nature and
18:52the totality.
18:54At this point, the body is no longer
18:56perceived as something isolated, but
18:58consciousness expands beyond ordinary
19:01physical and mental limits, with the
19:03attainment of enlightenment as the
19:05ultimate goal.
19:07Now,
19:08this entire process does not occur
19:10immediately.
19:12These practices develop progressively,
19:14and what you are seeing here is a very
19:16general and simplified view, designed so
19:18that you can begin to perceive something
19:20from the very first moment.
19:23If you wish, you can try it now.
19:26Step one, embryonic breathing.
19:30Sit with your back straight.
19:32Relax the body and gently place your
19:34tongue on the palate, closing the upper
19:37energetic circuit.
19:39Close your eyes and bring your attention
19:41inward.
19:43Begin by directing your attention to the
19:45abdomen, a few centimeters below the
19:47navel, in the area of the lower dan
19:49tien.
19:51Breathe slowly, softly, and silently,
19:54[music]
19:54without forcing the rhythm.
19:57Allow the mind to descend and settle
19:59there,
20:00as if all your attention were gathered
20:02at that point.
20:04If you wish, you can also maintain a
20:06slight awareness in the center of the
20:08head, allowing that upper attention to
20:10gradually descend and unify with the
20:13sensation in the abdomen.
20:15>> [music]
20:15>> It is a natural, effortless process in
20:18which the mind and energy begin to
20:20align.
20:22>> [music]
20:22>> As the breath becomes more stable,
20:24something that may require more or less
20:27time, depending on your internal state
20:29and practice,
20:30you can gently begin to introduce the
20:32idea of the microcosmic orbit.
20:36Step two,
20:37microcosmic orbit.
20:40During inhalation, allow the sensation
20:43to descend toward the base of the torso,
20:46toward the perineum.
20:48During exhalation,
20:49>> [music]
20:50>> let that energy ascend along the spine,
20:53following the path of the governor
20:54vessel, du mai, to the top of the head.
20:58From [music] there, naturally allow it
20:59to descend along the front of the body,
21:02through the conception vessel, ren mai,
21:05returning once again to the abdomen.
21:08it is not about forcing the path, but
21:10suggesting it with attention,
21:12as if following a smooth, continuous,
21:14[music] almost electrical flow.
21:18Step three, macrocosmic orbit.
21:22Before moving the energy throughout the
21:23entire body, make sure the flow in your
21:26internal orbit is continuous. [music]
21:28If you already feel the energy
21:30circulating along the central axis, from
21:32the abdomen up the spine to the crown,
21:35and back down the front, you can begin
21:37the next movement.
21:39With each exhalation, allow the
21:41sensation of warmth, vibration, or key
21:45to extend gently from the abdomen toward
21:47the hands [music]
21:48and the soles of the feet.
21:50Feel how it moves toward the center of
21:52the palms.
21:54Feel how it descends to the soles of the
21:56feet.
21:57This is a first [music] step in
21:58expanding energy into the 12 main
22:00meridians of the body, beyond the
22:02central channels,
22:03>> [music]
22:04>> contributing to balancing and vitalizing
22:06the entire energetic system.
22:08Once the energy becomes more palpable,
22:10allow this sensation to move more
22:12broadly up and down along the meridians
22:15of the arms and legs, toward the
22:17extremities of the hands and feet, as if
22:20all the body's energy pathways were
22:22being irrigated by a continuous current.
22:25Do not try to force or visualize with
22:28too much intensity.
22:30The key is to accompany the sensation
22:32with relaxed breathing and attention, as
22:35if following the natural movement of the
22:37energy.
22:38Practicing these kinds of energetic
22:40exercises together with meditation in a
22:42conscious and consistent way allows
22:45energy to expand beyond the central axis
22:48of the body,
22:48>> [music]
22:49>> gradually connecting the main channels
22:51with the meridians of the arms and legs.
22:54This allows key to flow more completely,
22:57bringing balance to both body and mind.
22:59[music]
23:00Many practitioners report feeling more
23:02energized, vital, and awake, as if their
23:05body were more alive.
23:08They also begin to notice a deeper
23:10connection with their spirit,
23:11>> [music]
23:11>> a sense of inner harmony, and a growing
23:14attunement with their own energy. Over
23:16time, these practices can help regulate
23:18the nervous system,
23:19>> [music]
23:20>> promoting calm, emotional stability, and
23:23mental clarity.
23:25In the end, everything rests on a very
23:27simple principle.
23:29The mind guides the energy.
23:32And wherever attention is directed, the
23:34flow begins to establish itself.
23:37This is only the beginning, but it is
23:40enough to start directly experiencing
23:42how this internal system begins to
23:44awaken.
23:45That's all for today's video.
23:47Thank you very much for watching until
23:49the end.
23:50See you soon.
