Hold the line
Love isn't always on time
By befriending, holding and sleeping next to a child, Chi energy can be taken. if the adult then becomes angry with the child, more Chi can be taken. If the child is then beaten and set in the woods to run for their life and hunted and killed all their Chi energy is taken.
I first heard this described by that Zulu spiritual guy in an interview by Bill Ryan of Project Camelot. He didn't call it Chi, been a long time ago and I can't remember exactly. you can call it loosh or life force or whatever. I searched for that video to post here a year or so ago but couldn't find it, probably been removed.
