NS A EE San ‘ « at 1989 in Beijing. After scientific confirmation of his powers, demand for Dr. Yan’s lecture and demenstrations has become very high. Some of his lectures were attended by tens of thousands. Scientific experiments sometimes have had to be done simultaneously with the lecture sessions. The conference had originalzy scheduled him to speak 25 minutes but was compelled by popular demand to extend this time to two three hour sessions. At the very start, he galvanized the American audience with the feel of energy. Some delegates in attendance were activated to have strange spontaneous movements and gestures. In his lecture sessions, generally a good portion of the audience would go into qigong state, laughing, crying, dancing or gesturing. Some patients may suddenly be he aled, wheelchair patients may stand up and walk. Such things may seem like miracles. Dr. Yan, however, insists that it is science, not superstition. It is human power which causes material changes. White rats or guinea-pigs deposices in the hall may have their immunity raised, tumors shrunk or life span extended. After the conference Dr. Yan was invited by the Mind Center Research Institute of S.F. to undertake experiments with AIDS patients. On June 29th, upon invitation of the American Qigong Association, we flew to New York. In a meeting with businessmen and civic leaders, Dr. Yan called for the organization of a World Qigong Foundation to consolidate the forces of Qigong enthusiasts and supporters. The aim is further research to bring about science revolutions and global propagation of Qigong for the benefit of mankind. In Washington, D.C., a local Qigong association arranged a lecture held in Holiday Inn Gaithersburg. Hundred attended. It lasted until after midnight. Even at that late hour, the zeal was high. People stayed longer for autographs. The Embassy of China invited him to lecture. The Ambassador himself was among the audience in Qigong posture. This is not 128 a surprise. In China, some eighty or more millions of people practice qigong. It is probably the most popular single health- maintaining practice in China. Qigong associations are organized in all provinces, in most cities and principal manipulates. Universities and hospitals are involved in the research. Zeal fox Qigong is still on the rise. 4 Dr. Yan emphasized to the audience that Qigong is believe? able to arouse man’s latent potential. Man posseses in himself tht power to ward off disease. It is a question of activating su xD hidden power within us. 2s He cautioned people, however, not to believe Qigong is & panacea or cure-all. He stressed that Qigong effects afte conditional, depending on many factors, such as inborn potenti@? resistance, patients’ cooperation or response, correct attitud§ follow-up practices and above all, virtuous living and good deedg In Boston, Dr. Yan was invited to lecture at uff Massachussette Institute of Technology. Some of the faculty arf@ students were engrossed in the reports made by him and professor Lu on the changing of the molecular structure of water and is effect on the half life of Am-241 isotope by Qi even at a grea distance. S Back in New York, on July 9th, the United Nations Qigong Association invited him to speak in the UN Headquarter. H& spoke on the possible influence of Qigong on world peace. Hp emphasized that Qigong is focused on the principle of the oneness of the universe and requires its practitioner to adhere to virtue ang morality. There are preconditions for higher attainment. As thg basic units are in consonance and in harmony, the world will Bs in peace. He stated the goal of Qigong thus"When the Gre Principle is universally in force, the world belongs to all". 90 We flew on July 10th to Chicago where Dr. yan was invi by a local AIDS positive rganization to do experiments to s@® whether Qigong healing and exercise can help AIDS patien8 regain immunity. 2 At the University of Illinois in Champaing-Urbana he told tk€ professors and students the encouraging findings of leading 129
“ ATT HE ee ne Chinese Universities in Qigong scientific studies, that mind power at Qigong state, even at a distance of two thousand kilometers away may still work effectively on experimental samples affecting molecular structure. This report would sound quite unbelievable, but Dr. Lu, the respected high energy physicist was on hand to confirm and explain in scientific terms how the experimentation was conducted, repeated and verified. In Illinois, I came face to face with the first "Bigu", qigong induced fasting, which has Isted now more than 100 days. The Faster is not an ordinary person but Xutian Wu, who is an exchange professor in Agriculture from the People’s Republic of China to the University of Dlinois. Starting from the day he attended Dr. Yan’s lecture in S.F., he began feeling he didn’t like eating, so he stopped. For more than 100 days now he has sustained himself only on water and a little fruids. In the first week he lost 6 pounds, Alarmed he telephoned Dr.Yan. From the day of the call, his weight has been steady. "Bigu"(pronounced bikuo) is the Qigong effect by which one may be enabled not to eat at all. By continued practice with unfettered faith, one can go on as far as one’s call potential permits. In China, there are hundreds of similar cases. One test case under strict scientific observation is a young girl, age thirteen, who taken nothing in her system except water water for more than 1,000 days. Dr.Yan still keeps in touch with her by phone while traveling in America. There are many demands for English copies of these reports, but some are not presently available. Some professors showed interest in the translation of these valuable documents. We welcome the joint efforts of all concerned to bridge the language gap, to hasten the day for American scientists to participate actively in the research in this new frontier of modern science. On invitation, we visited the Johon E. Fetzer Foundation at Kalamazoo, Michigan, which is dedicated to the study of ’subtle energy’ which may be considered another desingations of Qi. The foundation is interested in collaborate on with Dr. Yan in the 130 further research into Qi or subtle energy. The preliminary exploratory trip was encouraging, details of cooperation have yet to be hammered out. w Back to San Francisco on July 19th, at a reception banquet, ly, personally witnessed a striking demonstration. In front of aboutS a hundred businessmen and community leaders, Dr.Xin Yan by speaking two sentences, made an eighty year old lady who wasd seated just in front of me, rise from her wheelchair and walk. & As Dr. Yan approached our table for a toast, the old ladyS asked"Dr. Yan, may I stand up?" Dr. Yan answered, "As you> think to stand up, so you stand up" She stood up. she followed up"may I walk?" Dr. Yan said "As you think to walk, so yor? walk."She began to walk. Applause and cheers thundered the hallS the old lady who has not been able to walk for at least forty three years walked around the restaurant hall amidst astonishef,. cheering spectataturs. rd Second applause came when another old lady with Parkinson’ s+ disease suddenly stopped shaking as Dr. Yan offered a toast tg) that table which is just next to ours. A local businessman, moved - by the miraculous effect of Qigong, drew out his credit card anf> took the total bill for this banquet to his account. <3 Though people speaked these things as miracles, Dr.Xin Yar has never laid claim as such. He said, if Qigong could caus biomolecular changes as in RNA, the extraordinary good effeéN in curing sicknesses should not be a surprise. He always caution people not to relate Qigong to superstition. He insists that £ science still can not explain some Qigong phenomenon now, time will take care of it. Qigong is scientific. _ In response to the increased popular demand, the Qigon? Institute of S.F. arranged for a 1200 person capacity hall for the next lecture lesson. They found out later that this was not enough? The hall was jampacked, they had to postpone half an hour g seat more people, with still hundreds outside who could not & accommodated. < In his lecture, beside generating the flow of energy which could be felt by most of the attending audience, Dr. Yan also 131
Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300430003-5 conveyed profound philosophical lessons. He advise the audience to love all things around us by first loving our parents and elders. He stressed that this is a Qigong lesson and a Qigong message. It is not a religions dogma, but a scientific revelution. He explained that we all carry the chromosome or hereditary message from our forefathers and our living elders are our connectors. If we cut this connection, the beneficial hereditary message would be thus severed, leaving us deprived of the virtues and greatness built-up by our forefathers. On why we must love our neighbors and all things around us, Dr. Yan said, this is a physical law, for if there is an action, there will be an equal reaction. If you hit somebody, the force rebounding against to you would be just the same. In like manner, if you give love to all things around you, the loving message will be returned to you in multiples. Some attending the lecture expected a miracle to happen to themselves, others wished to witness one. In front of more than a thousand crowd, they saw a few wheelchaired patients stand-up walking. Dr. Yan cautioned the patients not to expect too much, because strong desire prevents Qigong state, thus reducing the desired effect. On August 4th, Dr. Yan spoke to some 500 who overcrowded the Presidential Hall of Lincoln Plaza Monterey Park City. The following day he addressed 1000 admirers at Pasadena Hilton, LA area. Here he appealed to all to practice Qigong regardless of age. He said children learning Qigong will improve school performance and develop good manners and right conduct. Youth practicing Qigong would be more disciplined, less exposed to temptation to wrong-doing and irregular sex practices. Adults practicing Qigong could raise work efficiency and cultivate sound mind. Married couples practicing Qigong would maintain harmonious relationship and would give birth to better bred offspring. Older people practicing Qigong would ease stressful periods, reduce fatigue and prolong active life. Qigong would cut health maintenance burden and contribute to social stability and 132 A RR A I eRe 1A economic progress. As he traveled around America, Dr. Yan has repeatedly urged the American people to practice Qigong to lesseon the stress in life, and to reduce the menace of aids and cancer in particular, and to improve our total wellbeing. He also has appealed to the science community to study this new frontier. By delving into the mysteries of these extraordinary but true Qigong phenomena, Dr. Yan says we can unleash harness the latent power of man and to uncover the secret of the universe. 2) An Eyewitness of Yan Xin Qigong Phenominon Stevenson Wu From June 13th through the 25th, 1991, I followed Dr. Yan Xin, the famous Chinese Qigong master and scientist, and attended special Qigong presentations, “Lecture with Emission of Qi". While explaining the principle of Qigong, he simultaneously emits vital energy to help the audience with health problems. I encourage a serious look at this phenomenon. Dr. Yan Xin combines Chinese traditional medicine with the sciences of Western medicine. Using his highly developed Qigong energy, he has cured many common and incurable diseases and has performed scientific experiments. His research shows that our latent human potential far exceeds contemporary scientific knowledge. The mind power or Qi emitted by this trained Qigong master can influence or change the molecular structure of test samples, including those of DNA and RNA, even from a distance of 10,000 kilometers. It can also effect the half-life of radioactive isotopes and the polarization plane of a laser beam. His discoveries are changing the way modern science is viewed, and challenging many of its assumptions. To satisfy the growing interest in Qigong and to address the needs of patients with difficult diseases, Dr. Yan Xin created 133 Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300430003-5 a ae an A a li

Following an opening address, Dr. Yan Xin simply "introduced his scientific experiments, which emphasized that his mind power can change the molecular structures of human cells and of the food cells in the dishes for the party. This may account for the high energy components needed in the events-that followed. After his speech, we watched a 20 minute video Program, “Chinese Superman --- Yan Xin". Then three elderly paraplegics in the assembly stood up, left their wheelchairs and tried to walk. The entire banquet hall seethed with excitement, encouragement and applause. One by one, each toddled slowly to the front. As they shook hands with Dr. Yan, he smiled and advised them to practice more to Strengthen the healing effect, but to avoid getting overly excited. People were then invited to give witness to their experiences, a very respectable gentleman, who is a representative for the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education, related his experience. He had injured his jaw ina 1970 car accident and was hospitalized for three months. The wound healed, but the nerve died. He suffered with this problem for twenty years. His nerve was cured immediately after a Yan Xin lecture and lunch. A businessman, Mr. Tan , regained 60% of his hearing immediately following a lecture, although no one had been able 134 nt iat | Swtake bd wey tasted about 40 minutes. She then felt strong enough to get up and had regained her voice, After attending a Yan Xin "Lecture with Emission of Qi" in San Diego, she found her tumor which was a metastasis of the original cancer liquified as verified by X-ray. I was asked to introduce my experience of taking liquid diet for a year. Since last June 23 when I attended a ’Lecture with ‘? Emission of Qi" by Dr. Yan Xin, he had mentioned one of the Qigong miraculous phenomena called Pigu, a few people training on Qigong can live normally without taking solid food. During this lecture it seemed that some Qigong message and energy had affected my body. All of a sudden I did not like to take any food but never felt hungry. I realized that the Qigong Pigu maybe befell on me. I did not force myself to take any meal besides taking a little fruits and drinking a cup of juice. But I have felt energized carrying on normal work and living but I get less sleep than before. In the first two weeks I lost eight pounds, I called Dr. yan Xin. He Suggested that I need to drink a little more water. Just during this telephone talk I regained two pounds. Since then my weight has been quite stable. During the whole year I have been engaged in my Tesearch project. Most of the time I was very busy, even working for 14 hours a day, but I have never felt any fatigue. It has amazed me that I have not been attached by any illness for a year. I cut down two hours of my sleep time to practice Qigong exercise. I feel satisfied with my health, for I am strong and energetic. Some friends of mine told me that I looked younger than before. I don’t know how 135 Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300430003 BES IAB RIT ST BOG
