I used to think the same thing years ago...but experience is a funny thing, it tends to change your perception a bit. guy that taught me some of the stuff I practice feels like a giant magnet when he walks by (and not the hair standing on end electromagnetic feel either...tough to describe.)Josh Young wrote:*chop*
Some will tell you it is one thing or another, I believe that it simply means energy and that the old works make perfect sense in terms of this. However I am not concerned with hocus pocus magic powers and thus chi for me is pragmatic and scientific, being a correlation of kinetic impact. Thus there is no magnetic jing, no way to coil the so called bioelectricity and release it, but there is indeed physical jing that can allow the transmission of energy, ergo chi, to be refined.

My view is that chi is the most misunderstood and abused concept in all of martial arts and that this has done tremendous damage to the scientific credibility of martial arts due to the conflations involved.

Even without considering aether, isn't it logical to conclude that it is possible via much effort to learn to modify your own biomagnetism to the point that it can affect others, and they can sense it?
