All of these different words describe the palpable force which animates the human and all other forms. It may be regulated and it may be cultivated. What was once the realm of the sorcery is to become the tools of the Earth steward. In fact it is the quality of being in touch with this life-force energy that we share with the Earth that will define stewardship. To that end we present information that we have collected and processed that deal with awakening to the potential of the human life-force and spirit.

We present the concept from the Taoist schools of the Three Harmonies - namely; Earth, Heaven, and the Human. When this system is totally integrated there is a resonate vibration of the Earth frequency throughout the being. Regardless of our origins we stand here at the bottom of the sky. There can not be a clear separation between our energy and the energy of the environment.

Key to accomplishing harmonic resonance with the Earth and Heavens are the practices of keeping still while standing and sitting. In order to come to feel the resonance one must relax completely and in order to relax completely the body's posture must be balanced. There is one essential standing posture, with several variations of arm and hand positions that are called standing pole, embracing the tree, or zhang zhuang and there is one essential sitting posture known from yoga as the full lotus which also may vary arm and hand position to create particular effects.

Behind variations in individual schools there is a set of principles in the internal practices of the martial arts, the medical practice, and spiritual systems now known as nei-kung, ch'i-gong, and shen-kung. In the re-covering earth material we examine aspects of these arts and develop a comprehensive model of the principles involved and invite their extension into the practice of Earth stewardship. Above all else in this presentation we are careful to only bring forward information that we have practiced and come to some understanding of the material even if that understanding is limited.

At this juncture we believe that the phenomena of ch'i may begin to be understood by imagining the body as a complex solid-state circuit for the accumulation, modulation, and discharge of both electro-magnetic energy (yang ch'i) and electro-gravitational energy (yin ch'i). With our working model the central nervous system, which may roughly correspond to the taiji pole, is an antenna which can tap the approximately two hundred volts that is contained in the meter of it's height in the atmospheric electrical gradient. This electrostatic charge is frequency adjusted in the essential organs and the fascia tissue which function as capacitors to discharge modulated energy through the meridian system. This model is rather modern and the technological description is in development. The finished version must include the interaction not only of electron flow but also account for the function of photonic interaction in the system while additionally approaching the issue of awareness.

...and, in fine, the ancient precept, know thyself, and the modern precept, study nature, become at last one maxim.
