As soon as the thought came to this point, You Fang took action as soon as he could. Taking advantage of the profound insights and full energy at this moment, he immediately began to verify the "Enlightenment Chapter" and "Nine Prefaces of the Heart Method".

The next second, he closed his eyes again, and his spiritual thoughts began to swim. The "Nine Sequences of Mind Method" imprinted in his mind from the past emerged autonomously, and he began to recall and review the past.

The so-called "Nine Prefaces of the Heart Method" is also an inner alchemy method within the Taoist sect, but it only belongs to the Trinity sect and has not been spread to the outside world.

In layman's terms, its practice method is from Preface 1 to Preface 9, gradually practicing to reach the end, but it is different from the common Taoist practice method, it is reverse practice.

Generally speaking, inner alchemy is practiced based on the three elements of "jing", "qi" and "shen", from jing to qi, from qi to shen, and then to the Tao.

And these are the stages that are often referred to as building the foundation in a hundred days, refining grain into essence, refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, and practicing emptiness to combine with Tao. They are also the stages that Taoists must go through in their practice. path of.

However, the Trinity disciples who take the "Nine Sequences of Heart Method" as the root and practice the "Three Levels of Reverse Life" are different. Their practice comes from the opposite direction. The traditional inner alchemy is "from existence to nothing". The door comes from nothing, from void to spirit, from spirit to energy, and finally from energy to essence...

It can be seen from this that the "Nine Sequences of Heart Method" and the traditional inner alchemy are the same in that they are both practiced step by step, but the steps are changed from the original five to three.

The Trinity Sect has always believed that human life comes from the universe, which is divided into three levels: "jing", "qi" and "god", and begins to evolve from the void to the god.

Of course, the so-called "rebirth" here refers to the transformation in concepts and personal cultivation, that is, in "nature" and "fate", rather than actually "refining Qi" from "empty". That is refining. There is no way to refine it.

In terms of "refining Qi", the people of the Trinity Sect still follow the common sense. They still refine Qi into Qi, refine Qi into spirit, and refine the Qi into emptiness. Only in this way can one's own Qi be completely condensed.

However, there are still differences in this, because there are no two processes of "building foundation in a hundred days" and "refining grain into essence" in "Nine Sequences of Heart Method". Instead, it is the ordinary third process from the beginning. The important thing is "refining and transforming Qi".

Looking at the overall practice process, Qi practitioners of other Nei-alchemy schools, when starting, "Jing", "Qi" and "Shen" are "have", "wu" is "wu", and "Jing Qi Shen" is "It is definitely the best to start practicing among the three, the most entry-level, and at the same time the most traditional dual cultivation of life and life.

The Trinity Sect starts from "emptiness", starting from a vague concept of "nothing". There is no "integration", only "returning emptiness", so that practitioners can practice "emptiness" by themselves and become masters. "origin".

From this, we can see how difficult the entire cultivation process will be, especially when getting started. How easy is it for a practitioner who is new to cultivation to understand the meaning of "emptiness"?

This is why the Trinity Sect has always been extremely strict in recruiting disciples. It is difficult for those who are not talented to practice, for those who do not have a good character to persevere, and for those who do not have extraordinary understanding, it is difficult to understand. This is also "it is difficult to practice against the odds." the root cause.

Of course, in actual history, this method of inner alchemy practice is not the only one. In the internal training of the "Shangqing Sect", there is also an inner alchemy method similar to the "Three Levels of Reverse Life", and it has been spread for a while...

Unfortunately, due to many turmoils during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the method of the "Shangqing Sect" was lost. Until later generations, only the "Nine Prefaces of the Heart Method" of the Trinity School remained for this kind of practice.

Thinking of this, the two inner elixir cultivation methods were initially compared. At this moment, You Fang's eyelids moved and he noticed something strange...

Although he has long known what ordinary inner alchemy techniques are and knows the differences, because he has only practiced the "Nine Sequences of Heart Method" and practiced the "Three Levels of Reverse Life" and immersed himself in it, he did not feel anything strange. Correct, but now through verification with the method of "Zhenren Ziyang", everything is different.

However, due to his lack of cultivation and deep understanding, You Fang could only grasp a sense, but could not explain the reason...

But for him, it was enough to capture this feeling, so he immediately struck while the iron was hot and began to carefully recall the specific contents of the "Nine Sequences of the Heart"...

One of the nine prefaces says: Gen Bei, stop thinking with thoughts, and seek the heart!

"Yi" says: "Gen Qi's back."

To the north of the memorization is meat, and the north is water.

And the heart belongs to fire. If you can use the fire of the south and nourish it with the water of the north, this will cleanse the heart and hide it in secret.

To stop thoughts with thoughts is to make the thoughts righteous and stop the evil thoughts from outside.

Therefore, beginners must first recite the heart method, starting from the mouth, and then into the back of the heart. The so-called back of the heart is the inner side of the back.

The Qiang character is composed of flesh and space. The empty space on the back is slightly lower than the heart, which is the so-called aperture of nothingness.

As long as the mind stops at the back, the mind will always be at the back.

If the heart is always on the back, water will naturally rise and fire will fall, and the breath will be regulated throughout the body.

This is the first sequence of the Nine-Sequence Mental Technique, which is the starting point of Kung Fu, which is called "Gen Bei". The founder of the Trinity Sect used "Gen Gua" to guide beginners, and its meaning is profound.

In the "Book of Changes", the basic symbolic object of "Gen Gua" is "mountain", and its basic hexagram meaning is "stop", and "Gen Gua" expounds the principle of suppressing evil desires and greed. Therefore, the founder's " "Gen memorizing method" is also "the method of calming down and calming the mind", also known as the method of washing the mind and worries or taking a bath.

"Gen Bei Dharma" is a great way to get started. Beginners are required to collect their overflowing minds, hide their thoughts on their backs, stop them with thoughts, destroy illusions, and avoid delusions, in order to realize their original mind, that is, "The heart of emptiness and ignorance".

And this is the practice that the Trinity sect must carry out when they first get started. It is the only way for the Trinity sect to understand "what is virtuality". Only by completing this process can it be considered a true entry.

The second of the nine prefaces says: Zhou Tian, ​​follow the example of Qian and Kun and establish the pole!

There are three hundred and sixty-five degrees in the sky, and my body is a small space for heaven and earth.

When walking around the heavens, I must gather the pure Qi within the heaven and earth of my body to embrace the spirit, and disperse the turbid Qi outside my body and the heaven and earth to refine my body.

Zhou Tian immediately performs the court, imitating the heaven and earth to establish the pole.

Above the navel, about four fingers away from the middle of the wrist, neither forward nor backward, neither left nor right, east wood, west metal, south fire, north water, and middle earth stand on the earth.

Feel a golden needle, which connects from back to front, and from between the golden needle and the silk, silently recite an inch below the navel, turn left to the east to cross the Li, turn right to the west to cross the ridge, and start again.

From small to large at first, it gets bigger, and from big to small, it can’t reach the level of a dove’s tail, and it can’t reach the level of a divine pass.

At first, use the intention to lead, and the fire will turn on its own. When turning, pay attention, neutralize the pole, let nature take its course, and consolidate it.

If it does not turn around, it needs to be understood several times. This is the wonderful purpose of accumulating and refining Qi and reversing Yin and Yang.

As the movement becomes more mature, the mind will turn on its own, and the orifice in the earth will become empty.

"Yi" says: "Walking through the court, you will not see the person." This is the time when this skill is achieved.

However, this is a great method for dispersing turbidity and nourishing deficiency. If the disease is cured, move the mind to the affected area, turn it around, and disperse the limbs, then the blood will flow naturally and the qi will flow naturally.

This "Zhou Tian Gong Technique" is the "Foundation Building Technique" method of the Trinity Sect. It conforms to the "reverse life" principle of the Trinity Sect that first cultivates "Xing", then practices "Qi", and then establishes "Destiny". The same is true for everything. The basis of spiritual practice.

Zhoutian, originally an astronomical term, refers to the great circle on the celestial sphere that can be seen by the human eye. Kong Yingda's "Book of Rites·Yue Ling Pian Shu" explains Zhoutian: "All the twenty-eight constellations and all the stars follow the left direction of the sky. One day and one night make up a week.”

Taoism follows nature. Since ancient times, Taoism's internal alchemy has regarded the human body as a small world and used the heaven and earth to compare the cycle of alchemy or the movement of qi in performing exercises.

In the inner alchemy method, the Zhoutian usually refers to the "Ziwu Zhoutian", or "Rendu Zhoutian". The path of the Qi movement starts from the Dantian, goes down through the "Weilu" and goes up along the Jiaji. The "Du Vein" on the back runs through the "Jade Pillow" to the "Ni Wan", then descends, passes through the "Magpie Bridge", runs along the "Ren Vessel" and returns to the Dantian, which is a Zhoutian.

With such continuous circulation, the pure Qi will gather in the body and the turbid Qi will disperse outside the body. The inner Qi will gradually become clear and solid, and can be sent and received at will.

The third of the nine prefaces says: Clear the pass, the limbs and apertures are illuminated to refine the form!

The Qi of the human body is dispersed to the four seas with one breath, and returns to Kunlun with one breath.

If qi is stagnant, it cannot flow up and down, so it is necessary to clear the body, so as to unblock the muscles and veins of the body and circulate the stagnant qi throughout the body.

Once the stagnant Qi is dispersed, the spirit will become empty and clear, and the body will become clear and refreshed.

To pass the pass, you must stand at the pole from the ground and walk around the sky three times;

Directly below the middle pole, make several circular motions through the joints in two ways, and rotate the tops of both feet to the middle finger;

Rotate the soles of your feet, follow your heels, and walk up to your elbows, all the way to the tail end;

Turn left, turn right, and walk three times according to the sky;

Rotate straight up from the spine to the shoulders, separate the backs of the two hands, turn the middle finger into the hand, go up the shoulders, to both sides of the head, twist up the ears, to the Niwan, twist down the two eyes, from the nose to the middle of the wrist, to the right Turn around and walk three times around the world;

Then do it nine times, or twenty-one times, or forty-nine times separately, and do it twice every morning and evening, walking, standing, sitting, and lying down in the same way. The more, the better.

When it doesn't work, pay attention to the yellow neutral pole, where the blood circulates. If you practice diligently in the morning and evening, the news will come to you, and all diseases can be cured.

This method of clearing and refining the body can make the seven orifices connected and bright.

If the disease can only be cured by treating the local area, and luck is needed to dispel the disease, you must sit upright, cover your navel with your left hand, and calm your spirit before doing it.

The first and second sequences of the "Nine Prefaces of Heart Method" - "Gen Bei" and "Xing Ting", focus on eliminating distracting thoughts and delusions, and cultivating true energy. When true energy accumulates to a certain level, you must use your mind to move the energy and drive the true energy. Run around the body.

However, there are many points throughout the body where it is difficult for the true Qi to move. Therefore, the true Qi must be mobilized to break through each checkpoint, so that the Qi machine can circulate continuously, so as to achieve the purpose of tempering the body and establishing one's "destiny".

At the same time, the power of these three sequences is also the "Great Zhou Tian Qi". Its movement of true Qi is not limited to clearing the three passes, nor is it limited to running only between the Meridians and Meridians, but to clear the passage of hundreds of meridians in the whole body, limbs and meridians.

Therefore, this method can also solve the mystery of the second sequence of Xingting Kung Fu. After all, beginners of Xing Qi will inevitably make mistakes due to impatience, and thoughts come from the mind. The heart is fire, and being too focused often leads to excessive fire. This requires releasing the fire, and by performing the Great Zhou Tian Gong method, you can dissipate the fire and remove heat, achieve a balance of yin and yang, and harmonize qi and blood.

The fourth of the nine prefaces says: Peaceful soil and benevolence, in order to form the Yin elixir!

The top of heaven is 84,000 miles away from the bottom of earth, and the middle point between heaven and earth is 42,000 miles.

The human heart is as small as the heaven and the earth, and the distance between the heart and navel is eight inches and four minutes, and the distance between the heart and navel is about four inches and two minutes.

What does it mean when it is called earth? Wood in the east, metal in the west, fire in the south, water in the north, and earth in the middle.

If you can use a little bit of benevolence in your body, you can rest in it and nourish it. When water and fire are combined, they will form the yin elixir. When the water reaches this point, it will stop and irrigate it, and when the fire reaches this point, it will subside and warm it.

After clearing the pass and refining the body, the body will be clear and the meridians will be smooth, then the whole body will be relaxed and the spirit will be refreshed, which will be followed by "an earth and benevolence".

The founder of the Trinity Sect, "Mr. Three Religions", inherited the view of the unity of heaven and man from his ancestors, and regarded the human body as a small part of the world. He believed that the distance between heaven and earth is 84,000 miles, so the center point is 42,000 miles away.

The ratio between the heart and navel is between heaven and earth. The distance between the heart and navel is eight inches and four minutes, so the center point is four inches and two minutes away. The space between the heart and navel is actually the "courtyard" of "Xingting", which is Huangting or Huangzhong. , corresponding to the five elements of soil, An Tu Dun Ren means that "Benevolence" is placed in the soil and nourished in order to produce Yin Dan.

Looking at the word "ren" again, it is actually a knowing word, from person to person, and from person to person.

The left and right radicals of "人" and "二" combine to form the character "仁", which means that two people love each other. The radicals "人" and "二" can also form the character "元" (元).

"Shuowen" contains: "Yuan, the beginning."

The two words "ren" and "yuan" are very different in common modern usage. However, looking at the etymology, the two words are synonymous.

The union of two people is like a man and a woman having sex, which is the initial stage of life; the core of a fruit is also the result of the sex between a man and a woman. The core is also a kernel, so the core is usually called a kernel. The kernel is the basis for the birth of new life. .

Extended to the field of human life, "benevolence" is nothing more than human fetuses, and although they are only embryos and fruit cores, they contain endless vitality.

And "Mr. Sanjiao" once said: "I have speculated on this: Confucius' so-called 'benevolence' is a huge fruit that never stops growing, and benevolence is in it. From this, it sprouts, and from the roots it becomes solid. , the light is gorgeous and beautiful, and is prepared with the benevolence of the fruit."

The kernel hides the vitality of endless life. The subsequent germination, growth, flowering and fruiting, presenting a "bright and gorgeous" scene, are all biochemically derived from the "kernel" in the kernel.

Therefore, the word "benevolence" has two meanings:

In fact, it means that it is the embryo of yin and yang's intercourse, and it is the vitality that never ends. Virtually refers to benevolence among the five virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness, and is the heart of benevolence.

In the main theory of "Mr. Three Religions", "Benevolence" is the "Benevolence" of the Five Virtues, which is the heart of benevolence. In "Nine Xu Heart Methods", there is a theory of "a little bit of benevolence", which mainly refers to the life and death of all people. The vitality and spirit of breath.

Finally, let’s talk about “Jie Yin Dan”.

In the ancient Dan Sutra, there are Yang Dan and Yin Dan. Yin Dan sometimes refers to the elixir formed by both men and women, but the Yin Dan usually refers to inner elixir, internal medicine, and true mercury, because the human body has its own The two qi of yin and yang do not need to rely on the dual cultivation of yin and yang of men and women.

The so-called "true mercury" refers to the "yin in yang", which is the line of true yin in the Li hexagram image. Li is the heart. Therefore, Jieyin Dan, which is the skill of cultivating the mind, can transform a little "virtual spirit" "The god of ignorance" lives in the yellow and nourishes it with earth.
