Jerry,
What you wrote about directing the energy applies to me as well. I believe
if there are blockages somewhere inside us, about some of which we may not
even aware of at the time, and we are directing the energy inside us, it
might get stuck somewhere and this can cause problems. I know that a lot of
people don't have any negative effects when they are directing energy but I
was told specifically by the herbalist who is treating my migraines, not to
direct energy in any way at all and to just let it flow on it's own. He
further told me not to visualize during meditation and he cautioned me
against practices such as the microcosmic orbit because in my case, due to
blockages which are causing migraines, the energy might get stuck and this
may cause even more problems.
What I wonder is how we can find out in advance if it is ok to direct chi or
k consciously or if we should strictly stay away from such practices. I
mean, if we find out the hard way it can be already too late and we will
have to put in a lot of effort to revert any damage this may have caused and
to remove the blockages which prevent the free flow of chi or k.
