Through Da Chan Qi, the monks undergo a major change in their inborn qualities of mind. The sense of omnipotence and transcendental joy that they experience cannot be described with words. Just imagine going through forty-nine days (7-day sessions) of contemplating the same Hua Tou (concentration on a topic of contemplation), as if no different from their regular same way of living, and always hearing the sounds made by bells or the discipline staff or other ritual objects. Therefore, after tens of days of meditation, one becomes aware of the omnipotence of a greater spiritual existence and become more at ease with the physical one.
