Ki

Ki (or in Chinese, ch'i) is a Japanese word for the concept of "spiritual energy". Some people believe that ki is a real physical energy and speak of "extending their ki" or "ki disturbance". Others consider ki to be simply an expression of the transfer of physical energy with no philisophical or spiritual aspects.
