CAN CHI KUNG HELP TO FIND THE TRUTH OR OPEN ACUPUNCTURE POINTS?
Chi kung can help to open acupuncture points
Question
Does Chi gong help us to find the truth (light) and falseness (shadow) in us and see what is true and false in others and in all things.
If so, how does it do it?
Can chi gong help the body find intuitively its own acupuncture points to help close or open channels that help energy flow? What else is opened and closed?
I’m asking these questions because of what I’m noticing in my chi gong movements. Nothing specific just a general impression.

Answer
The term "chi kung" is the one we currently use in our school. In Romanized Chinese it is "qigong", but pronounced as /ch'i kung/.
Chi kung does not help practitioners to find the truth and falseness. Those who practice chi kung may tell untruths.
Sometimes they may not know what they say is untrue. For example, they may say there is no such a thing as "chi", even when they practice chi kung. But even when they know that what they say is not true, they may still say it without showing any emotion.
Practicing chi kung also does not help practitioners to see what is true and false in others, and in all things.
Practicing chi kung helps the body to intuitively find its own acupuncture points to open channels, called meridians in our school, to enable energy to flow smoothly.
Chi kung clears energy blockage. Those who practice chi kung will have open channels. Those who do not practice chi kung will have close meridians.
The terms "open" and "close" are used provisionally. Actually in those who practice chi kung, many of their meridians may still be close, and in many of those who do not practice chi kung, many of their meridians are open with chi flowing through.
