Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to bring into the public domain converging ways of thinking about reality and human systems, exploring parallels between the theory of Physical Vacuum and the concept of Qi in Medical Qigong science.

Design/methodology/approach

The approach adopted in this paper includes: review of the relevant literature; dialogues between the first two authors over an eight-month period; review of the findings and discussion of interpretations by all.

Findings

There is evidence for the existence of an ideal information field. This field is a real space-time torsion structure. Qi is a torsion field. It spreads with superluminal velocity and connects the whole Universe. Any entity is in a constant dynamic connection with everything else in the Universe.

Research limitations/implications

This paper offers limited discussion of the wider area of scientific discoveries.

Social implications

The findings may impact future interdisciplinary research, health/well-being practices and public policy.

Originality/value

There is no known to us publication interpreting the parallels between the theory of the Physical Vacuum and the concept of Qi.
