SOME BRIEF NOTES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESEARCH
INTO HUMAN
PARANORMAL CAPABILITIES
IN GUANBDONG

BY:
The Guangdong Somatic Sciences Research Committee
In March
of
1979,
after
the "Sichuan Daily"
published
the news that
Tang Yu could recognize
characters with
his ears,
research into somatic
sciences
was
launched
successively
in
Beijing,
Shanghai,
Chengdu and
Kunming.
In
the Spring
of
1981,
the Editor-in-Chief He Zongyan and
editor Zhu
Run long
of
"Nature Magazine"
came
to Guangdong for
a conference.
Taking
advantage
of
this excellent opportunity,
the Guangzhou Academy
of Chinese
Medicine
first
invited
Editor-in-chief
He
to
make
a
report
on
the
situation
of
research into paranormal
abilities
in all
of China.
Then
the
Provincial
Department
of Health
Scientific Research
Office also invited
him to make
a similar report at the
provincial
science
hall.
In May of
the same
year,
with
the support of
"Nature Magazine",
Guangdong sent Liu
Ruchen,
Deng Suhua,
Chen
Jingruan,
and
Li
Kunhua
to go
to Chongqing
to
attend
the
second
discussion
conference on human paranormal abilities.
Director
of
the Guangdong
Academy of
Chinese Medicine,
Liu Ruchen,
was
also selected
to
be
the Guangdong member of
the all-China Somatic Sciences
Research Commission
( preparatory )
.
After they returned
to Guangdong,
they
made
a
report
at
the provincial
peoples committee hall.
After that,
the
Guangzhou
Academy
of
Chinese
Medicihe,
the
South
China
Engineering
College,
the
Guangzhou Academy
of Medicine,
and the Guangzhou Municipal
Bureau
of
Public
Health
all
established
human
paranormal capability
research groups.
Doctor Li
Kunhua of
the Yuexiu District Zhenggu Hospital
and
the Guangzhou Academy of Chinese Medicine Qigong
Office all organized
personnel
to
go
to
local
elementary
schools
to make
a survey of
any
abilities of children
there
to
recognize
characters
with
their ears.
Comrade
Deng
Suhua
went
to
the
Zhongda attached elementary school
to
survey there.
With the assistance
of
principal
Zhang Yanlan,
he surveyed
the entire
school,
discovering over
100 people with paranormal
abilities.
He organized
three demonstrations.
The
teachers
and
employees
of
the
Guangzhou
College
Guangzhou
Medical
College
attached
School,
the
"Guangzhou Sanitation" Press and
the Sun
Yatsen University
observed
the
demonstrations.
The
South
China
Engineering
College
established
a
research team with assistant director Shi Dan as its advisor
and Peng Hua
as the
team
leader.
Through
surveys of
local elementary schools,
they
came up with eight
elementary
schools
whose
abilities
were relatively
strong.
They were
put through
two years of
training,
and not only could
all
of
them recognize characters through non visual
means,
some
were even
able
to move objects,
move the hands on watches and cause flowers
to open.
Chen
Jingruan,
Guo
Zuorao
and
Tan
Xiqi
of
the
Guangzhou Municipal
Sanitation Bureau
organized
a
Guangzhou Municipal
Cooperation Group
the
Xinqiao Elementary School
on Haizhu Road
to
train
the seven member team of
persons with
fairly strong capabilities.
They could recognize characters

At that
time,
the
"Yangcheng
Evening
News"
reported
on
the situation
developing
in Guangzhou City-
There are
always setbacks
in any sort of development.
In September
of
1981,
the "Wenhuibao"
published
the
speech by
Comrade Yu Buangyuan^

in
the development of research into
human

At
this

in China,
the researchers
in
somatic

in
where
interested assembled
at the
Guangzhou College
of Chinese ^icine where
they convened
a
symposium.
At
the
symposium
it
was

it
J®*
Li Zequan ,
Guo Zuorao,
Xie Fan,
Lai Sanghong,

and He Zhuoyuan
to form
the preparatory
team.
After a number of meetings to draw up the
plans,
a
charter
was
drafted,
outstanding
personnel
were
selected,
contacts were made with the appropriate government agencies,
and
the
f x
compilation
of research papers
of somatic
science research

was printed.
Also,
after
a thorough investigation,
it was discovered that
Comrade Professor Liang Ronglin
of Jinan
University's PhysiCB department
had
conducted
research
on
somatic
science
for many years.
Because of
this,
he was nominated
to
be committee chairman.
With the ®“pp°rt
Provincial
Natural Sciences Dialectics Research Committee and
the
Qigong Sciences Research Association,
on 20 October of
®
Somatic Science
Research Committee"
was formally established at Guangzhou
Medical
College.
After
the Provincial Research
Committee was
established,
it carried
out numerous
operations.
For example,
in early
1985 it went
to Huidong
County
to investigate
the ability
of
incantations
to make
a
knife ^
fire burn.
The
Guangzhou Medical
College went
to Panfu Road elementary
schools for six different
surveys.
The
association
organized testing
activities.
Non visual
sight occurred at
a rate of 30 percent.
Profess
Liang
of Jinan University and teacher
Zhang
Zuqi
organized close
tests.
In October of
1905 they participated
in organizing
the first all
Guangdong Qigong and Somatic
Science Research
Paper Exchange Conference.
In October
of
1985
they sent
Li
Zequan,
Lai Sanghong
and He Zhuoyuan
to
the ancient testing
of
paranormal

held
in
Wuhan.
After
the
conference they invited Wang Weisheng and
her daughter
to come to Guangdong
for testing
of seeing through objects
and non visua
sight activities.
They
invited old
teacher Huang Minggao from Guangxi
to
come to
the committee
to take part

ABSTRACT:
This
article

proposed
by
the
author
to
explore

abilities.

theory
of
Qigong
and
human
FORWARD
The
phenomenon
of
Qigong
and
human
paranormal abilities has been
around since ancient
times
in China and
in
other countries.
It
is only
that no
one
has
yet been able
to explain
these phenomena.
The author of
this article
has researched
the
mechanics
of
these
phenomena
and has
reached
the
end
of one stage.
He reports his findings
to
the readers and
hopes
that this
article
will
encourage
more
and
better
research and
articles.
I.
THE
SPECIAL
CHARACTERISTICS
OF
QIGONG
AND HUMAN PARANORMAL
ABILITIES.
Qigong,
human paranormal
abilities
and
other
paranormal
phenomena
have
common
special
characteristics.*
These
are that these phenomena
^seldom occur
and
they
have
poor
repeatabi 1 i ty .
Although
there are
somewhat greater opportunities
for
the occurrence of
the Qigong phenomenon
than
for the human paranormal
ability phenomenon,
and
the repeatability
is
also somewhat
better,
but
for
the vast majority of
people,
the phenomenon
can
still
be considered
as
very
rare,
and
the
repeatability
is still
considered
as
poor.
It
is
just
these
special
characteristics
that
lead
many people
to
either ignore these phenomena or
to
believe
"they
are
just
not
real".
Actually,
many
people still
have not seen
the miracles of Qigong and even
more have not seen
the unbelievable demonstrations of
the so-called
"human
paranormal
abilities".
Further,
people have
been taught
in metaphysics
a along
time,
and
doubt
that
one
divides
into
two,
denying
the
dialectical
principle
that
"if
there
is
a
normal,
there
must be a
paranormal "
.
Some people even
believe that
"since the normal
abilities of
the human
body have
not yet
been completely defined,
it
is ridiculous
to
talk about paranormal
abilities."
There are many confused view points.
On another
hand,
it
is just because these
phenomena are
sd rare and
have poor repeatability
that many people relate them to ghosts and demons.
There are quite
a few superstitious ideas such as
"demonic
possession"
.

The two types of views on Qigong and
human
paranormal
abilities above
are
both
metaphysical,
they
are
counter
to dialectics.
However,
how
should we view Qigong and human
paranormal
abilities
from the dialectical
point of
view?
In other
words,
how
should we provei
Qigong
and human
paranormal
ability phenomena are
the antitReses to J the
law ”o f uniformity?
Below is our proof
of
th is
_ topic .
The method
of
proof
is to
start from
the "science”
of
the
West which
is so
popular today because
in today's
China,
most people know what science is and many people have
studied the
rudimentary contents of science.
II.
THE PRINCIPLE OF
"THE THEORY OF INCOMPLETENESS"
AND SOME EXAMPLES
China
has
a population
of more
than one
billion.
A great many of
these are science and technology workers.
Anyone who has enjoyed training
in
science
and
technology
should
know the statements that "science is
strict’
and
"you can't
trick anyone
with science".
Therefore,
in
their
science and
technological
operations,
the theoretical
portions have
to be
strict and
the practice must
be conscientious.
However,
in
theoretical
thought,
can we
be completely
strict
in our
theoretical
train
of
thought?
The
answer
to
this question
iss
"This
theoretical
idea
not
only
is
not
strict,
furthermore,
it
might
be
considered
by
some to
be
a
tremendous mistake!"
This is the so-called
principle of
the theory
of
incompleteness”
proposed
to
use
to study
paranormal
phenomena.
This
principle can be proven
by the readers.
The
proof
is as easy
as pie.
Furthermore,
the person proving
it need not have
any
fancy
degree.
However,
let
ds
first make a demonstration.
For
example
:
(I).
FAILURE OF NEWTONS
' S LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION
World
famous scientist Newton came up
with a
law called
the
law of
"universal
gravitation”
which states
that the
mutual
attraction between
two
mass points"
of
two bodies m x
and
ma
is directly proportional
to the
mass of
these
two
"mass points"
and inversely proportional
to the square
of
the distance between
these
two
"mass points"
p
ors
in i rn^
f
-
k
r}
However,
this
law
is
invalidated
by
the
"mass
points"
he
hypothesizes.
Because
everyone
knows
that
the
"point"
of
the
"mass
points"
comes from the point concept of geometry
which is
a hypothetical
object,
or
in
other
words,
no
one
has
yet
been
able
to pick up
a
geometric
point"
and show
it
to anyone.
To insist that "geometric points
actually exist"
is
a
type of sophistry because "geometric points" cannot
be picked up and shown
tD someone,
other people have the right
to believe
that
"geometric
points"
do
not exist!”,
and
they
cannot
be
said
to
be

IV.
THE PROCEDURE AND RESULTS OF THE TESTS
The children were tested
through recognizing
"flash cards"
(February
13th
to
14th,
three days
(sic)).
Obvious instances of card recognition were:
Little
Ran
(accurately
recognized
that
a
card
was of
a spotted
horse)
Little Du
(accurately recognized
that
a card was of
a duck).
Little Xiu
(accurately recognized
red
and green cards,
and accurately
recognized
that
a card was of
a
flower).
Later,
we
had
the children
to hold
a
ball
of
paper
in
their
hand
and
recognize the character on
the paper.
(February 17th).
The obvious correct calls were;
Little
Xiu
(the character
for
"ten").
Little Ran
(the characters for
("three"
and
"six").
At the same time we used a
middle
aged
woman,
Mrs
Liang,
in our
testing,
but
she
did
not
show any paranormal
ability
to recognize the
characters on
the paper.
Later
(March 21st)
Little Quan
(accurately recognized
a design
and color).
(17 March)
Little
Zhou
(accurately
recognized
the
character
for
the surname
"Kuang"
)
(10 March)
Little Ran
(accurately recognized
the character
for
"dirt".
VII.
DISCUSSION
From
this
it
is
possible
to
believe
that
the five children
all
separately showed
paranormal
ability
to recognize characters.
Many
of
the
procedures were
failures.
At times not one of
the children would
be able
to demonstrate the paranormal
ability
to
recognize
a
character
for an
entire afternoon.
Therefore,
we cannot believe that
these children would
