In January 1997 my gynaecologist gave me a diagnosis of breast cancer.
I suffered two surgeries, and received chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Hence, when people angrily accused occasional reports that
cancer could be cured as fakery, I could not help thinking they were
like children. They did not know what they were doing.

At the end of June, as a result of a medical checkup and
through a magnetic resonance, I was diagnosed as having a tumor at the
pancreas' cue. This diagnose was grave, and the opinion of the doctors
was to have an immediate operation and to extirpate part of the pancreas
(30-50%) and of the spleen.

Early this month, I was diagnosed with a 4th stage colon cancer. I
had an operation to have 6 inches of the affected colon as well as 9
lymph nodes removed. I have a 6 inch incision on my abdomen which is
expected to heal completely in the next 2 weeks. I am an ardent fan of
Master Wong's chi kung books. I believe Master's chi kung course will
help me in my fight against cancer. I would like to attend the course.
Answer
I am sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with cancer, but the
good news is that cancer can be cured! I am so convinced with this fact
that I wish to repeat it: cancer can be cured.
Actually there is nothing amazing about overcoming cancer. Right
now millions and millions of people all over the world are doing that,
just as they are also overcoming deadly viral diseases. The really
amazing thing is that by nature, which means without having to do
anything extra, we can overcome all diseases. It is our natural
birth-right to be healthy and happy.
When a person becomes sick it is because one or more parts of his
body are not working naturally. Chemotherapy, surgery, herbal medicine
and acupuncture are some of the means to restore the natural working of
the body, thereby restoring health. Chi kung is the most natural and
the most fundamental means because life is basically a meaningful flow
of energy, and the most fundamental task of chi kung is to ensure this
meaning flow.
One of my students who had cancer and who recovered by practicing
chi kung told me that at one stage her illness was so bad that she
thought she would die any time, but the only time she knew she could be
alive was when she did chi kung. This inspiring statement is not only
poetic but actually real. As long as she did chi kung, such as doing
exercises like “Lifting the Sky”, she took responsibility and control of
regulating good energy entering her and bad energy going out from her.
In other words she ensured a meaningful flow of energy.
Nevertheless, to say that every disease can be overcome is not the
same as saying every patient will be cured of his disease. If a
disease, any disease even a simple one, has developed beyond a
threshold, then recovery may be impossible.
In your case, you have a good chance to overcome cancer. Cancer is
not an acute disease like cholera or dengi fever. This means you still
have time. And you have the most important ingredient to get well,
i.e.the will to live. If a patient gives up hope, t would be difficult
to recover.
I have devoted a whole, long chapter on “Cancer Can Be Cured” in my
book, “The Complete Book of Chinese Medicine”. Read it. The facts as
well as explanation on why cancer can be cured will further enhance your
hopes and confidence. Then apply to my secretary to attend my
Intensive Chi Kung Course. Meanwhile practice on your own the wonderful
chi kung exercise called “Lifting the Sky”. You can learn it from my
books, “The Art of Chi Kung”, “Chi Kung for Health and Vitality” or “The
Complete Book of Shaolin”.
Every morning and evening or at night pray sincerely according to
your religion, or if you do not profess a religion, pray in whatever way
you think fit. Seek divine help and it will be given. Make a vow to
get well and then help other cancer patients by telling them that they
too can recover from the disease. Reaffirm your vow everyday. Needless
to say, when you have recovered, you must fulfill your vow to help
other cancer patients.
Excerpt taken from Grandmaster Wong Kiew Kit's Q&A 2001
have a friend who has been ill from a cancer that
has something to do with the spine and needs bone marrow transplant. I
also had cancer when I was young (leukaemia) and I've managed to get
through it alive. My friend seems to have lost faith and is in
hospital getting weaker each day. I know you're not a doctor but I am
just curious to know your view.
Answer
Congratulations for overcoming leukaemia. It is a great achievement.
Actually I am a Chinese physician trained in the traditional way. I
did not study traditional Chinese medicine in college or university,
but followed my masters as an apprentice for many years.
Cancer can be cured. I am sure of this because I have personally helped many people recover from cancer.
In traditional Chinese medicine there is no illness called cancer.
The modern Chinese term for cancer, which is “ai”, is not a traditional
Chinese medical term; it is a modern term translated from western
medicine.
This does not mean that patients who had symptoms for which western
doctors would label as cancer, did not exist in China in the past. But
these patients were not described as cancer patients. A patient's
illness was described according to its cause in the Chinese medical
paradigm, and not according to its symptoms as in the case of western
medicine.
Three patients described by western doctors as suffering from
leukaemia, would be described differently by Chinese physicians because
the causes of leukaemia may be different among them. Hence, one patient
may be described as suffering from “insufficient yang in the liver
system”, another may be suffering from “blockage of the spleen
meridian”, and the third may be “excessive fire at the bone marrow”.
The great difference for the patients is that if you call their
illness cancer, you are telling them that you don't know what they are
suffering from and hence you do not know what illness to cure, whereas
if you call their illness by the causes as in the case of traditional
Chinese medicine, you are telling them that if you can overcome the
causes they will be cured of their illness.
Hence, if you can increase yang in the liver system of the first
patient, clear the blocked spleen meridian of the second patient, and
reduce fire at the bone marrow of the third patient, all the three
patients will be cured. If the diagnosis is correct, recovery is a
matter of course.
The wonderful advantage of chi kung is that you need not even have
to know the causes! This may sound crazy, but it is true. Why is it
so? Because while the other healing systems, western as well as
Chinese, work at higher levels of the body, such as at the levels of
cells, organs or systems, chi kung works at the most fundamental level,
that of chi or energy.
For example if a physical makes a mistake in his diagnosis,
thinking that the cause insufficient yang in the liver system when
actually it is in the colon system, or thinking that there is too much
fire in the bone marrow when the cause is actually insufficient yin in
the kidneys, then the treatment would be inappropriate.
In chi kung the problem of mistaken diagnosis does not arise
because there is no need for diagnosis. Why? Because in the chi kung
paradigm there is only one root cause, that is yin-yang disharmony.
Yin-yang disharmony may have many and varied manifestations, such as
insufficient yang in the liver system, too much fire in the bone marrow,
or insufficient yin in the kidneys. But a chi kung therapist or master
needs not worry about the manifestations; he deals with the root cause.
An analogy may make this clearer. Your refrigerator is not
working. Your dinner is not cooked. And you cannot watch your
favourite television programme. Why? Because your power supply has
been cut. You need not examine your refrigerator, cooker or television
set. Restore your power supply and everything works well again.
Restore harmonious energy flow and every part of your body works
well again, which is another way of saying you have yin-yang harmony.
The forte of chi kung is restoring harmonious energy flow. In western
terms it means that good energy makes good cells, which in turn make
good tissues, which in turn make good muscles, organs and systems. If
all your systems, organs, tissues and cells are functioning well, you
will not be sick.
It is highly recommended that you and your friend practise chi
kung. You have to practise genuine chi kung, and not physical exercise.
Most people may not tell the difference between chi kung and physical
exercise. Physical exercise works on muscles, whereas chi kung works on
energy.
