Ok, I think I actually know something about this one. Finally, a question that you don't have to be skilled at energy manipulation to answer! []

As far as I know, chi is the universe's energy. Ki is one's inner energy. Ki can have an effect on another person's Ki, but not their physical body. Jing is compressed Ki and can hurt people physically.

Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the summation of what I've read so far.

Your emotional state is important. If you are feeling good, a combination of happiness and equanimity, and if you are well rested, then it is easier to raise energy and work with it. If you are feeling sick, tired, or unhappy, then it will be harder to concentrate on your energy. The good news is that once you succeed in seeing energy for the first time (like you did at least twice) it will not be as hard as it was before the first time. Mood, lighting, and background can combine spontaneously and you will begin to see auras.
