English to Spanish Art/Literary Religion New religions in China

The most significant Chinese New Religious Movement of the last fifty years are the qigong groups, which borrow doctrine from earlier sectarian groups and combine it with populist teaching and health culture. The word itself, which can be literally translated as breath-work or ***energy-skill***, was coined in the twentieth century, but qigong's "self-cultivation" techniques have been a part of Chinese culture since records began.
