What is the goal of this exercise?

[Isbadd]

This is a test of focus.  Mind over body.

[garngh]

Test?? Isn't it too dangerous as a test? What would happen if the test failed?

[Isbadd]

Humm, I dont' think you can take the test until you are more than ready. I have seen 3 different people do this.

[Isbadd]

totally real. X-rays show that the balls are suspended above teh diaphragm and do not pass into the stomach. Then with focused contraction of the diaphragm muscles and the balls are brought back up. I have witnessed the procedure many times by several different masters. This is a major test of your qi energy as you proceed in Ba Gua Qi Gong.

obviouslly you don't train with metal ball since the very begining

frozen meat balls might be good : )
