Author Biography
Grand-master and Professor Pang Ming: From the age of six, Grand-master Pang Ming studied Qigong, T'ai Chi and Martial Arts with nineteen different Grand-masters in China with backgrounds in Buddhist, Taoist, Confucian, martial arts, folk and other traditions. In 1958, Pang Ming graduated from Beijing Medical University and from 1958 to 1962, studied traditional Chinese Medicine, specializing in acupuncture. From there, he began his research into Qigong, drawing on both his Western and Chinese medical background. Zhineng Qigong created by Grand-master Pang Ming distills the wisdom of classical forms - traditional Qigong, martial arts, Taoist, Confucian and Buddhist Qigong - and adapts a rich legacy to modern science, medicine and contemporary needs. He simplified classical Qigong so that anyone, even those suffering from illnesses, can enjoy its benefits. In November 1991, Grand-master Pang Ming founded Huaxia Zhineng Qigong Center in Qinhuangdao, China. Over a period of more than ten years, 200,000 patients (Pang Ming called them students) were treated at the Center, the largest medicine-free hospital in the world. All patients were tested and diagnosed, then put through intensive training in Zhineng Qigong for a month, after which the tests were repeated. The healing rate for patients was over 95% and encompassed over two hundred disease categories including cancers, liver disorders, heart disease, paralysis, diabetes, congenital defects etc. More than 3000 scientific reports about Zhineng Qigong have been published in China, and in 1998 Grand-master Pang Ming was the first person to receive a certificate of appreciation from the Chinese Ministry of Sports and Health. Of the eleven Qigong forms researched by the Government, Zhineng Qigong was recognized as the most effective one for healing purpose.
