Within each of us exists a gigantic energy ready to be used and manipulated in any way we wish. It is a creative energy, the very essence that gives us life, our vital energy. This force, which at first seems invisible, is entirely tangible in its effects. For many, it is a

mystery, an esoteric concept, but in reality, it is everywhere and at all times, pulsing with life and consciousness. The question is, how can we control this energy so that it works in our favor? In this video, you will learn the first steps to control your vital energy

using principles of occultism, hermeticism, and ancient energy control practices such as Qigong. Prepare to awaken the power that lies dormant within you. [Music] To take the first steps in energy control, it is essential to understand what it really is and how it manifests

In the esoteric world, energy is known by various names: Prana, Chi, Ether, or simply vital force. Franz Bardon, in 'Initiation into Hermetics,' describes energy as the essential element that connects the soul, spirit, and physical body. He states that without the control of energy, man is but

a leaf in the wind of the forces of the universe. This vital energy is the driving force behind all of our existence. In practical terms, it can be perceived as vitality in health, as emotion in feelings, and even as intention in thoughts. Eliphas Lévi calls this energy

magnetic fluid, a subtle substance that fills the universe. It can be shaped by the will. In his book 'Dogma and Ritual of High Magic,' he emphasizes that energy is like a river; it flows naturally but can be diverted, channeled, and transformed. He says, 'He who knows the

The secret of the magnetic fluid can turn thoughts into reality, desires into strength, and the very soul into light. From this view, understanding how energy works is recognizing that it is not separate from you; it is your essence molded by your actions, thoughts, and emotions with each breath you take.

Therefore, learning to control it is, in fact, a process of aligning with this flow. Aleister Crowley, in his work 'Magic Without Tears', explains that energy control begins with the balance of the three aspects of the human being: the body, physical and vital energy sustained by nutrition, breathing, and movement.

The mind: thoughts and intentions generate vibrations that directly affect the energy field. The spirit is the most subtle and powerful source, the origin of all energy. He summarized this idea in one of his most striking quotes: 'Magic is the art of transforming reality through disciplined will.'

Will is energy in its purest form. At the heart of Chinese philosophy and practices like Qigong, the ancient Chinese art where energy flow is controlled through breathing, 'Qi' is described as the universal vital force that permeates everything that exists. It is the breath of life, the essence that

animates the body, sustains the mind, and nourishes the spirit. Qigong offers a practical understanding of energy, showing that it can be felt and manipulated by anyone. These practices help regulate the nervous system, blood circulation, and increase body awareness.

To a very precise level in Tai Chi tradition, it is believed that Qi arises from the union of Yin and Yang, the opposing and complementary forces that compose the universe. It is both material and immaterial, a bridge between the tangible and the intangible. Qi is linked to biological

Processes such as blood circulation, digestion, and the functioning of organs flow through specific channels in the body called meridians, forming an intricate energy network. It is also the energy that sustains thoughts, emotions, and mental clarity. When Chi is blocked, confusion

and emotional imbalance arise. On a higher plane, Chi connects the practitioner to the cosmos, serving as a tool for spiritual awakening. There are 12 primary meridians, each connected to a vital organ such as the heart, liver, and kidneys, and eight extraordinary meridians that store and

regulate energy. When the flow of Chi is harmonious, the body functions in a balanced way, but when there are blockages, physical or psychological diseases emerge. Imagine the meridians as rivers irrigating a field; if there is a blockage, the water stagnates and the

land becomes diseased. The practice of Qigong is essentially the art of keeping these rivers flowing freely. In the world of occultism, the mind is the master key to energy control. Before learning to direct external forces, it is essential to understand and master internal energies from Barton in

his foundational works. Especially, 'Initiation into Hermetics' emphasizes that energy control is impossible without a disciplined mind. According to him, the mind is both the conductor and the framework of the energy flow. Bon teaches that the human mind functions as a magnet for universal energy; thoughts, emotions, and intentions

shape the energy flow that circulates the body and beyond. He introduces a universal truth: to manipulate external energies, the mind must be clean and focused. The first step in this process is introspection. [Music] The path to controlling your energy begins with simple yet deeply

Transformative steps: first, we will learn how to cultivate energy awareness through practical exercises that anyone can do. The foundation of energy control is body awareness. The physical body is the vehicle of energy; for it to flow harmoniously, one must first establish a solid connection with it.

In the initial practice of body scanning, find a quiet place and sit or lie down comfortably. Close your eyes and breathe deeply. Begin focusing your attention on your feet and slowly move upward, passing through your waist, stomach, lungs, neck, and up to the top of your head, noticing each sensation.

Imagine that energy is awakening in every part of the body as your attention passes through it. Do this for 5 to 10 minutes daily. This practice increases body awareness, relaxes the body, and prepares the energy system for deeper work. As Levi said,

breathing is the means by which we absorb and redistribute the magnetic fluid in Qigong. The control of Qi is done through breath control, so it's time to learn how to breathe. The basic practice is conscious abdominal breathing. Sit upright or lie

on your back. Place one hand on your abdomen and the other on your chest. Inhale deeply through your nose, expanding your abdomen while keeping your chest still. Exhale slowly through your mouth, allowing the abdomen to contract. Focus on the rhythm of your

breath, feeling it as a flow of energy entering and leaving. Complete 10 cycles of this breathing twice a day. In addition to calming the mind, this practice aligns the energy flow and activates the energy center known as the lower Dantian, located below the navel, where

Chi is stored. Now let's move to an exercise to feel the flow of vital energy moving within you. In the next practice, we will bring the energy to the palms of our hands. Sit comfortably with your back straight and position your hands in front of your body at chest level, with the palms facing each other. Breathe deeply three times. On the next inhale, fill your belly and lungs with as much air as possible and hold for 4 seconds. Exhale slowly, imagining the palms of your hands warming. Visualize

the flow of energy circulating through your body and heading towards your hands. Continue breathing deeply, and with each exhale, your hands get warmer and warmer. Feel the tips of your fingers charged with energy. Do this for five minutes daily, and you will soon be ready for the next

[Music] steps. Emotions are the paint, the mind is the brush, and the universe is the canvas. What you feel inevitably becomes what you create. Emotional balance is an essential pillar for energy control. Emotions are not just subjective experiences; they are pure energy that alters the entire flow

inside and outside of us. This interaction between emotions, energy, and manifested reality is a dance that connects body, mind, and spirit with the universe. Human emotions are forms of energy in motion. In many spiritual traditions, including Qigong and Hermeticism, it is believed that each

emotional state directly influences the energetic flow in the body. Positive emotions such as joy, love, and gratitude promote a harmonious and expansive energy flow. They elevate the vibrational frequency of the practitioner, allowing a clearer connection to the universal field. Negative emotions, such as anger

Fear and sadness create blockages and energetic stagnation, often resulting in physical, mental, and spiritual imbalances. Unbalanced emotions are associated with dysfunctions in specific organs; for example, anger affects the liver, fear unbalances the kidneys, and sadness impacts the lungs in Western practices.

Unbalanced emotions are seen as obstacles to manifestation because they scatter the energy necessary to fulfill intentions. Uncontrolled emotions are like chaotic winds that scatter the magician's energy. To manifest anything, it is necessary to be emotionally centered because what you feel

determines the quality of the energy you emit. Harmonious emotions create a strong and coherent energy field. Also, energy follows focus; a mind disturbed by disordered emotions cannot sustain the attention necessary to direct energy. According to Aleister Crowley, energy has no intrinsic morality.

It simply responds to the intention and emotional state of the one directing it. This means that an energetic act can create or destroy, depending on the purpose with which it is performed. Throughout the universe, energy follows the direction given by intention and concentration. True power does not lie

solely in the flow of energy but in the directed consciousness that guides it. The act of thinking and feeling clearly and focused is the starting point for any manifestation in the physical, mental, or spiritual world. Intention is the seed, and concentration is the directed energy that makes that

seed germinate and grow. Intention is a clear and specific impulse that directs vital energy toward the manifestation of a result. Pure intention is not influenced by the ego or the distractions of the mind; it comes from a deep space of connection with the

heart and the soul with a clear understanding of what is wanted. When you place a clear intention in your heart, it is not just a superficial wish; instead, it is an energetic command that begins to shape reality according to your vibration. The mind then aligns with this.

Intention, and the path to its manifestation, begins to unfold. This intention can be for healing, to transform a circumstance, or even to reach a higher level of consciousness. The key is to be fully committed and present in the act of directing this intention. While intention defines the

goal, it is concentration that maintains the necessary focus to materialize that goal. Concentration is the action of the mind, the process of uniting mental energy into a single point. Without concentration, vital energy can disperse, weakening the desired manifestation. The human mind, by nature,

tends to become distracted, wandering from one thought to another. Therefore, true control of vital energy requires mental discipline. When you focus your attention on something deliberately and continuously, you are effectively diverting the flow of vital energy to a single point, increasing its intensity

and power. That is why there is no magician who does not meditate. In the practice of yoga, concentration is one of the main pillars. Through dharana, one of the stages of yoga, the practitioner learns to deeply focus attention on a single object or idea, whether it is a

chakra, a breath, a visualization, or even a sound. This helps channel the flow of energy for a specific purpose. Now, to finish, let us use this knowledge of intention and concentration to perform a pranayama practice that aims not only to control the breath but

also to direct and intensify the flow of vital energy, Prana, throughout the body and the subtle bodies. Breathing, by its nature, is a channel of exchange between the outer world and our inner being. Each inhalation is an exchange of energy with the universe, and each exhalation is a

release of tension, emotions, and stagnant energy. But for this exchange to be complete and effective, it is necessary to work consciously with the act of breathing. When we become conscious of our breath, we can learn to control and direct the flow of vital energy. The technique is called Nadi Shodhana, alternate

nostril breathing. This is one of the most common and powerful techniques of pranayama. Alternate nostril breathing aims to balance the flow of energy in both cerebral hemispheres and clear the energetic channels. Symbolically, it represents the balance between the opposite energies of

the universe: the Sun and the Moon, the masculine and the feminine, the active and the passive. How to practice: sit in a comfortable posture with your spine straight. With your right hand, use your thumb to close your right nostril and inhale deeply through your left nostril.

Close the left nostril with your ring finger and release the right nostril, exhaling completely through the right nostril. Now inhale deeply through the right nostril and exhale through the left nostril. Continue alternating nostrils, always maintaining deep and

slow breathing. This practice helps to balance the energy flows within the body, bringing calm, mental clarity, and inner peace. In addition to being an excellent concentration exercise, control of vital energy is a path of self-discovery and evolution. Start with small steps; pay

Pay attention to your posture, breathe consciously, meditate, visualize, and keep your intention clear. Over time, you will begin to notice your own energy becoming stronger, more harmonious, and more directed. Remember, vital energy is within you, waiting to be accessed and used to create the life you desire. You are the

master of this energy, and by learning to control it, you will become the conscious creator of your own reality. Thank you for watching.
