Abstract
|
|
|
|
In Taoism, Lao-tzu was deified as ’Tai Shang Lao Jun(太上老君)’ and the book Lao-tzu was regarded as a bible in practicing Qigong(氣功). There were recordings about Qigong(氣功) before Lao-tzu. However, those didn’t include philosophical basis. In the book Lao-tzu, it contains many theories to practice Qigong(氣功) in order to attain longevity and anti-aging effect through breathing and a state of balance. Compare to the Qi(氣) practice today is lean to physical exercise, Lao-tzu’s Qigong(氣功) theory of unification of mind and body is full of suggestions.
