The Masterly spiritual energy, or God , has its use in spiritual practice. How to use that masterly spiritual energy in spiritual practice is a matter of spiritual development itself” - Hua Ching Ni

Learning these arts will strengthen, develop, and integrate your spiritual elements and refine your energy, leading you to know and understand how to use the masterly spiritual energy to enhance all aspects of your life.
