Basic work

Before learning light work, it is appropriate to first practice basic work - Dantian internal work. Today's people, although their bodies are differently strong and weak, if they have not gone through qigong exercises, most of them are full of erosion in the upper jiao and sinking in the lower jiao, with disorganized qi and discordant intentions. Dantian Neigong is a specific method of exercising the three treasures of the human body: essence, qi and god, so that all veins are smooth and the qi of the Dantian is full. Xu Xun in the Jin Dynasty in the "Ling Jian Zi" cloud: "gas if the work is accomplished, sinews and bones and soft, the hundred passes to adjust the smooth." Dantian internal life and life, here for the foundation of light work, fix the life work stage can be.

Gong method

Practice, first do a good job of the three adjustments (adjusting the body, adjusting the breath, adjusting the heart) see the basic work in detail >>>; three adjustments). Briefly described as follows:

The first step: according to the requirements of the body to set up a good posture, in a sitting position is better. The whole body relaxes and excludes distractions.

The second step: breathing, first slowly exhale three breaths, while exhaling while thinking about the body of toxins, turbid gas from the pores of the body. Then do inhale, inhale while thinking of clean, fresh cosmic essence of the gas from the Baihui point down through the danzhong to the dantian, and then think of this essence of the gas slowly moisturize the whole body, the whole body clean, transparent.

The third step is to look at your eyes as if you are seeing a thousand miles away, even in a dark room. So a few moments, the eyes gradually moved closer, curtains back to the light, back to the ancestral orifice, down to the tip of the nose, seems to be a thousand miles of light collected to date. At this time, closed mouth, nose, nose inhalation, tongue against the palate, exclude distractions, will be a thousand miles of light with the eyes down to the dantian, in fact, the light of the nature of the innate light down to the dantian, and gently intention to guard the dantian, condense the God of Silent Illumination, God returned to the light of the Pro, that is, the place of the true gas collection. It seems to guard non-guardian, do not forget and do not help.

Receiving: After practicing for half an hour to one hour each time (20 minutes for beginners, gradually increasing to one hour, or even several hours), you can receive the power. At the time of closing, not suddenly open your eyes, think of the turbid gas from the pores of the whole body released, and at the same time visualize the universe of the real gas fresh, clean as manna from the top of the head flow through the whole body to wash the marrow, washed into the ground. So three times, slowly open your eyes, and then you can do some self-massage movements (see the back of the auxiliary work), and then walk slowly for several minutes, the end of the practice.
