SUMMARY: {U} CHINA CONTINUES TO SHOW GREAT INTEREST IN THE STUDY OF
EXTRAORDINARY POWERS OF THE HUMAN BODY. RESEARCH IN THIS AREA,
WHICH IS REFERRED TO AS THE HUMAN BODY SCIENCES IN CHINA, HAS BEEN
AIDED BY THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THREE RESEARCH CENTERS ESPECIALLY
EQUIPPED AND STAFFED FOR THE RESEARCH OF QIGONG AND OTHER PHENOMENA.
TEXT: 1. {U} CHINA HAS RECENTLY STARTED THE HUMAN BODY SCIENCE

3-YEAR COURSE ON HUMAN ENGINEERING HAS BEEN STARTED AT SHENZHEN
UNIVERSITY. CHINA RECENTLY ANNOUNCED SEVEN RESEARCH PROJECTS
In-KTrD--" THE HUMAN BODY SCIENCES, ESPECIALLY QIGONG AND OTHER
EXTRAORDINARY CAPABILITIES.
2. {U} A JULY 1988 CHINESE SOURCE {ZDB, P. 1} REPORTED THE
ESTABLISHMENT ON 25 JUNE 1988 OF A HUMAN BODY SCIENCE RESEARCH
INCLUDE ONES FOR SPACE, ELECTRONICS, APPLIED PHYSICS, AND SYSTEMS
ENGINEERING RESEARCH, STAFFED BY DOZENS OF SPECIALISTS AND SCHOLARS.

FACILITY, WHICH USES THE MOST CURRENT SCIENTIFIC THEORIES AND
EMPLOYS ADVANCED SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL EXPERTISE, INCLUDING THE
MODERN EQUIPMENT, INSTRUMENTS, AND TECHNOLOGY OF THE NATIONAL

3. {U} ACCORDING TO OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER CHINESE SOURCES {TKP, P.
5; WHB, P. 11-, A HUMAN 8ODY ENGINEERING COURSE AND A HUMAN BODY
ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER {STC 0086 7555 1562 4453 1331 4282 4496
0022 18001 HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY ENGINEERING
DEPARTMENT AT SHENZHKN UNIVERSITY, SHENZHEN//GEOCOORD:2232N/
11408E//.
A. {U} A 3-YEAR COURSE IN HUMAN BODY ENGINEERING IS EXPECTED TO
EDUCATE TALENTED PERSONNEL FOR A HUMAN BODY ENGINEERING RESEARCH
CENTER WHICH IS DESIGNED TO BE CHINA'S CENTER OF RESEARCH ON
EXTRAORDINARY CAPABILITIES OF THE HUMAN BODY. IN 1988 THE COURSE
ACCEPTED ITS FIRST STUDENTS, AGED 16 TO 30, FROM ACROSS THE NATION
{TKP REPORTED THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS AS 16; WHB REPORTED THE NUMBER
AS 201. ALL STUDENTS HAVE EITHER DEMONSTRATED SOME SPECIAL ABILITY
OR HAVE BEEN LEARNING QIGONG. THE CURRICULA INCLUDE A GENERAL
KNOWLEDGE OF TRADITIONAL CHINESE AN9 WESTERN MEDICINES, THE YIJING
{STC 2496 48421 {THE BOOK OF CHANGES, ONE OF THE FIVE CHINESE
CLASSICS}, BAGUA {STC 0360 05971 {THE EIGHT DIAGRAMS, EIGHT
COMBINATIONS OF THREE WHOLE OR BROKEN LINES USED IN DIVINATION},
COMPUTERS, AND QIGONG.
B. {U} THE PRECURSOR TO THE HUMAN BODY ENGINEERING RESEARCH
CENTER WAS THE QIGONG RESEARCH CENTER ESTABLISHED 2 YEARS EARLIER AT
SHENZHEN UNIVERSITY. THE NEW FACILITY IS DESIGNED TO BE AN
INTEGRATED BASE FOR EDUCATION, SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, AND TRAINING. IT
WILL DIAGNOSE AND TREAT PATIENTS USING CLAIRVOYANCE, ACUPUNCTURE,
AND TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE. '{{LUO}} ZHENGQI {STC 5012 1794

0491 7729 50621, DEPUTY COMMANDER OF THE GUANGZHOU MILITARY REGION,
WERE AMONG THE GUESTS AT THE OPENING CEREMONY FOR THE HUMAN BODY
ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER.
4. {U} AN AUGUST 1988 CHINESE SOURCE {QZ, P. 3531 REPORTED THAT
CHINA'S QIGONG SCIENCE RESEARCH CENTER {LOCATION NOT IDENTIFIED} WAS
ESTABLISHED ON 26 MAY 1988 AS A SUBORDINATE ORGANIZATION OF THE
CHINESE SOCIETY OF QIGONG SCIENCE. CHAIRMAN ZHANG ZHENHUAN OF THE
LATTER ORGANIZATION BECAME DIRECTOR OF THE QIGONG SCIENCE RESEARCH
CENTER. THE MISSIONS OF THIS NEW CENTER ARE TO COORDINATE VARIOUS
STUDIES ON QIGONG SCIENCE AND CONSTRUCT INFORMATION NETWORKS,
EVALUATE AND DISSEMINATE QIGONG SCIENCE RESEARCH ACHIEVEMENTS, AND
PROVIDE RELATED ADVICE AND SUGGESTIONS.
5. {U} ACCORDING TO NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER CHINESE SOURCES {KR, P.
1; WWP, P. 11-, {{ZHANG}} CHUNYAN {STC 1728 2504 17501. OF THE BEIJING
ACADEMY OF TRADITIONAL CCHINESE MEDICINE, BEIJING, DISCOVERED A THIRD
PATH THAT DIFFERS FROM THE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND MERIDIAN SYSTEM {MAIN
AND COLLATERAL VITAL ENERGY CHANNELS} IN THE BODY, WHICH IS PROVING
TO BE OF GREAT VALUE IN TREATING HARD-TO-CURE DISEASES. ZHANG
PRESENTED HIS HYPOTHESIS ABOUT THE THIRD PATH AT THE FIRST WORLD
CONVENTION ON ACUPUNCTURE HELD IN OCTOBER 1987 {LOCATION NOT
IDENTIFIED}, GARNERING THE ATTENTION OF WORLD SPECIALISTS.
