This manual is the first in a series of instructional manuals being offered by Master Lyn Dilbeck for the practice of Qi Gong and Internal Martial Arts. In his first book "Experiencing God's Reflection," Lyn gave you the foundation, the spiritual theory and methods, of Qi Gong Practice. In this series he shares how to employ these methods in your daily life. The manuals are introducing a new operational system, a new way for you, as consciousness, to relate to every experience you have in the different realms or planes of Creation... the realms of energy and matter (Etheric), feeling and emotion (Astral), and thought (Causal). Through easy-to follow instructions, you will be guided in how to apply the Transformational Keys and Guiding Principles of Qi Gong to your experiences. Applying these keys and principles to each experience of life is the very essence of the practice that is realized in the three tan tiens of your body (the energetic fields of intelligence that form the interface between your consciousness and the vibrational realms of Creation in which you exist, live, and experience). This first manual, "Starting your Practice," begins on the plane of energy and matter; it begins in your experience of stillness and movement. This realm forms the tangible doorway through which the student of Qi Gong can best get acquainted with the Transformational Keys and Guiding Principles. The first lesson teaches how important it is to warm-up the energy transfer points of your body, your joints. You then move on to acquire the physical skills you need for the physical-energetic or etheric practice of Qi Gong. In the last lesson, you are given a form (a series or set of movements) that codifies these skills into your being. This is where you start, but it will soon be apparent to you that what you learn and experience on the plane of energy and matter is applicable to your experiences in the other realms of your existence. Here in lies the beauty and genius of the Practice. Please look for the next manual in the series, "Guiding Principles of the Internal Arts An Instructional Manual for Qi Gong Practice."
Author Biography:
Lyn Dilbeck is a thirty-year practitioner of Qi Gong and Internal Martial Arts. He currently lives in Sedona, AZ where he has been teaching these arts for the past twenty years. To know himself and to help others know themselves has always been the deepest motivating force in Lyn's life. This heart-felt desire is the essence of his Qi Gong Practice and what he shares as a teacher. Before Lyn started to develop a conscious relationship with Qi through Qi Gong Practice, his quest had taken him into metaphysics and the practice of meditation. Also having a desire to help others, he studied and practiced medicine as a Pediatric and Internal Medicine Physicians Assistant. Lyn has come to know Qi Gong Practice as a conscious conversation between human beings and the Intelligent Power of Creation, Qi. In the course of this conversation he has learned that Qi is the divine intelligence and power that is birthing God's infinite potential into Creation. This is her true gong (purpose), to be the Mother of all vibrational existence and our Mother as well. Lyn has spent the majority of his life tending to this relationship, and been fortunate to study with many gifted Masters of Qi Gong and Internal Martial Arts: - Ralf Cahn, Albany, CA Kang jo fu - Stephen Labensart, Mt. Shasta, CA Yang Style Tai Qi Chuan - Lily Soux, Honolulu, HI Qi Gong - George Xu, San Francisco, CA Chen Style Tai Qi Chuan - Chris Luth, Solano Beach, CA Push Hands Training - Master Zhou Ting Jue, Los Angeles, CA Qi Gong (Wu Dang Style), Tai Qi Chuan, Hsing I, Bagua - Miranda Warburton, Flagstaff, AZ Hsing I, Bagua - Master Li Jun Feng, Austin, TX Qi Gong (Sheng Zhen) - Master Chris Petrilli, Sedona, AZ Escrima Passionate and generous in all that he shares; Lyn excels in revealing the internal principles of these arts through demonstration and metaphor. His deeper gift however, is the way he shows that these principles are the same keys that allow our true nature to manifest into our life as joy, wisdom, health and love. Lyn is a lover of nature. You can often find him on a lake or river, boating and camping. He loves Mexico where he has lived and traveled; he also teaches Spanish as a second language. For an in-depth understanding of the spiritual theory of Qi Gong Practice, look for Lyn's first book, "Experiencing God's Reflection."
