Empty Force – Ling Kong Jing | Sifu Dan Ferrera
This is an archive page. The video below was filmed in 2012. For the current, fuller explanation of what Ling Kong Jing is and how it is trained, read Empty Force (Ling Kong Jin) Explained: Myth, Method, or Advanced Qigong Skill? — or the Empty Force Q&A.
One of our most popular courses for an advanced and dedicated student is Inner Power Empty Force. From our course description –
Inner power is a natural ability that appears to be supernatural in its effects and results. It is like a powerful magnetic shield that will protect you from hostile threats. Understand here and now that the threats have to be real and not sport. Inner power only works when someone has immoral intent directed towards you or even your personal belongings. After having studied inner power training methods with several masters, it can be assured that this is in fact a real power that will protect you when needed. Those attacking you will be thrown and/or powerfully repelled by your inner power. You can even control and manipulate their physical actions (much like a puppet), once they have fallen under the influence of your inner power as a result of their aggression, but you should never abuse this particular situation, as your only objective is nonviolent self-defense, not an all out offensive attack. Compassion is an important quality to cultivate if you are to become a true inner power master.
In this video we just uploaded Sifu Dan Ferrera demonstrates visually how to cultivate and use Empty Force.
What Ling Kong Jing is, and what it is not
Ling Kong Jing is translated as “empty force” or “distance power.” In this demonstration Sifu Dan Ferrera shows the cultivation method and how the trained sensitivity is applied with a receptive partner. What you are seeing is a demonstration between practitioner and student, not a combat test. Treat the course description above as the traditional framing of the art; treat the video as a record of the practice itself.
Who this is for
This is advanced material. It assumes you already have a stable standing practice and reliable Chi sensitivity. If you are earlier in the path, build the base first with Qigong 101 and standing practice, then work up through the intermediate courses.
The full method is taught in Inner Power Empty Force.
This is a traditional internal martial art practice recorded for instruction. It is not a substitute for personal safety measures, self-defence training, or medical care.

Hi . What is the difference between Tenaga Dalam Ilahi and Empty Force Lion Kong Jing Sifu Dan Ferra ? Thank you . L
They both have martial application in terms of protective energy. Tenaga Dalam means “Inner Power” and Ilahi means “Divine” thus the Tenaga Dalam Ilahi initiation and ritual awakens a divine protection that is always with you, whereas Empty Force requires you to exercise on a consistent basis.
Tenaga Dalam Ilahi is more “Shen” spiritual energy
Empty Forece is more “Jing” vital essence energy.
I prefer to have both.
I wish to learn more on how to control and use my inner energy
You are at the right place. If you are new I highly suggest you start with our Qigong 101 page.
