Hi Tony & Chris et al, I do not "get" how using a tree as a broadcaster would be "taking over a tree". Why wouldn't the preps act as a nourishment for the tree at the same time that it is 'doing' what it always does? Isn't a tree always broadcasting in a sense?

Chris - Yes, I get your point about taking over a tree to act as a broadcaster. My main thought, as a rather junior practictioner of T'ai Chi - Chi Gung, was that the Chi has to come from somewhere and I'm not really harming the natural environment as a whole in my practice by drawing it in, especially as at least a large proportion of it is quickly released. There must be a limit to the amount that can be stored - and can one be said to destroy it by using it ? Tony N-S.
