Mingjue Pure Consciousness
MINGJUE AWAKENING
“It is like we have a deep treasure hidden inside ourselves at the bottom of the ocean. Although it is always there, most people are unaware of it. But with Mingjue practice we can experience it.
Our pure consciousness is our greatest treasure and our whole life becomes more peaceful and harmonious, full of universal love. Consciousness is the master key.”
– Wei Qifeng
The Essence of Mingjue
Mingjue is one of the central concepts of Qi Science. More than a method or a meditation technique, it describes a state of pure, self-aware consciousness. From this awakened state, the methods of Qi Science are practiced, allowing consciousness, qi and the body to function as one harmonious entirety.
The Chinese word Mingjue (明觉) is composed of two characters: Ming (明), meaning “clear” or “pure”, and Jue (觉), meaning “awareness” or “observer”. Together, they describe the state in which the inner observer—the aspect of consciousness that is aware—recognizes itself.
We may think of Mingjue as our inner observer becoming aware of its own presence. Rather than observing thoughts, emotions or the external world, consciousness turns toward itself and recognizes its own nature. This is the state of pure consciousness.
Mingjue as a State and Process
Mingjue describes both a state of pure, self-aware consciousness and the continuous development of that state. The first moment in which the inner observer recognizes itself is Mingjue. As this awareness becomes clearer, more stable and more continuous, it is still Mingjue—simply at a deeper level of development.
In everyday life, the inner observer is always present, yet it usually remains unnoticed. Through regular practice, consciousness gradually learns to recognize itself more consistently until the Mingjue state becomes increasingly natural in daily life. This ongoing development is expressed in the Chinese saying Mingjue Chang Zai (明觉常在), which means “Keep the Mingjue state always in the present moment.”
In Qi Science, when consciousness becomes the primary focus within the entirety of body, qi and consciousness, this is known as the Third Level of Entirety Practice. As Mingjue merges with the qi body and the universal qi field, a Mingjue-centered entirety state is formed. In this state, consciousness becomes the master.
The Purpose of Mingjue practice
The purpose of Mingjue practice extends far beyond learning a method or cultivating a peaceful state of mind. It is a path of continuous awakening that begins with the individual, unfolds through the realization of our true nature and ultimately contributes to the evolution of humanity.
On a personal level, Mingjue practice helps us develop and maintain the Mingjue state, allowing consciousness to become clearer, more stable and increasingly present in everyday life. As habitual patterns lose their influence, greater harmony naturally arises in body, mind, emotions and relationships. Health, inner peace and balance naturally arise through the continuous practice of Mingjue together with the methods of Qi Science.
As the Mingjue state continues to deepen, the purpose of practice reaches a more profound level: the awakening and realization of the True Self. In Qi Science, the True Self is the pure human essence and the master of all life activity. The highest realization of Mingjue is Yiyuanti—the state of enlightenment. The True-Self can merge and transform with all the levels of hunyuan qi(混元气) of the universe.
Beyond individual transformation, Mingjue practice also serves a greater purpose. Every person who develops a clearer and more harmonious consciousness contributes to the harmony of the world consciousness field. In this way, Mingjue practice supports the conscious evolution of humanity, helping elevate human consciousness towards a higher level of peace, freedom, compassion and harmony.
The Transformative Effects of Mingjue
As the Mingjue state becomes clearer, more stable and purer, transformation unfolds naturally on every level of life. These changes arise as consciousness awakens to its original nature and increasingly becomes the master of body, qi and mind.
One of the most profound effects of Mingjue practice is the development of a clearer, more stable consciousness. As habitual thinking, emotional reactivity and limiting patterns gradually lose their influence, greater inner peace, freedom, openness and genuine happiness naturally emerge.
Healing also becomes a natural part of this process. As consciousness takes the leading role within the Mingjue entirety state, it can more effectively guide the transformation of qi and the body. Health, vitality and balance develop more naturally as body, qi and consciousness function in greater harmony.
As Mingjue becomes clearer and purer, practitioners naturally experience finer levels of qi, allowing the Mingjue entirety state to deepen more rapidly. At the same time, wisdom continues to unfold, together with higher human potential and a deeper understanding of life.
The transformative effects of Mingjue extend beyond the individual. A more harmonious consciousness naturally influences relationships, communities and the surrounding environment. Every person who cultivates the Mingjue state contributes to a more harmonious world consciousness field, supporting the conscious evolution of humanity towards greater peace, compassion, freedom and harmony.
What Characterizes Mingjue Practice
Mingjue practice is characterized by a number of fundamental principles that work together as one integrated system. Rather than focusing on awareness alone, it integrates consciousness, qi and the body within the comprehensive framework of Qi Science.
Its foundation is the Hunyuan Entirety Theory, which provides a systematic understanding of the relationship between consciousness, qi and life. Through structured methods, practitioners gradually develop the abilities and wisdom of consciousness while consciously using the Mingjue state to transform and harmonize the body, qi and mind.
Mingjue practice is grounded in direct experience and supported by the systematic theories and methods of Qi Science. At the same time, individual practice is strengthened through a shared worldwide consciousness field, where practitioners support one another in the continued development of Mingjue.
