Abstract

Qi is a special concept in traditional Chinese culture. In the West, we know it plays important roles in traditional martial art and medicine; but its importance goes far beyond that. Qi is a fundamental concept that permeates virtually all aspects of Chinese culture. It is used just as naturally and frequently in talking about mundane everyday things as in discussing high-level philosophy. For this reason, it is extremely difficult for someone who was not brought up in this environment to obtain a deep understanding of the concept. Here are just a few examples of its complex usages.
