Hi water_drop,

Generally, the names such as: energy, bioenergy, universal life force, chi, have the same meaning.

What is however more important is to distinguish between the origin of the energy and its structure. Does it come from plants, animals, humans or universe? Does it come only from one source or is it a mixture of various energies blended together?

Usually in Reiki you work with the mixture of various energies, in qigong it depends according to the movement you are doing what kind of energy you will work with.

Who is your Reiki teacher? Have you asked them?

The ki of Reiki is the same qi of Qigong and is the same 'spirit energy' of metta meditation. The difference is in the way we want to use them and also the results aimed for. Is the ki directed outward, as in Reiki (most of the time) and metta meditation, or is it directed inward as in Qigong and Vipassana.
