MUSCLE/TENDON CHANGING & MARROW/BRAIN WASHING CHI KUNG
The Secret of Youth
Dr Jwing-Ming Yang
(Martin, 2007) “A good introductory/intermediate qi gong book. The author recommends reading his book The Root of Chinese Qi Gong before delving into this one, but if you have had some instruction in qi gong you'll be fine with this book. The history section is very interesting - explaining how qi gong developed and the differences between Taoist and Buddhist qi gong. The book is very well organized, like every book I have seen by this author. The author's explanations are helpful and it is great to have translations of many different ancient texts in a single volume. There are certain statements by the author, however, that lead me to believe that he does not practice the highest levels of qi gong and that he leaves certain very important things out of his practice or is not sure about them. Nonetheless, this book is still an excellent resource for those wishing to learn about qi gong”

INTRODUCTION. FIRST VOLUME PREREQUISITE: The root of Chinese Chi Kung - The Secret of Chi Kung Training. Dr Jwing-Ming Yang. Foundational knowledge for the Chi Kung = YMAA CHI KUNG books. The VALUE OF TRADITION. Understanding of nature was more limited in old times, and communications not as prevalent. The human mind was closed. BONDAGE OF TRADITIONAL THINKING AND BELIEFS. Accumulated experience was considered the source of knowledge. The most important thing was considered to EMOTIVE RESPONSE. Application of wise thinking and judgments increased knowledge. Ther better to sense and understand THE GREAT NATURE. Heavenly timing, geomancy, Human relations. WiseMan, HolyMan, Saint. The accumulation of Knowledge lead to traditions and societal rules which formed the FOUNDATION of the culture.
Tradition is the accumulation of experiences that have been filtered through human emotions. Traditions contain racial characteristics. Ancestor's paths. Experience guides the emergent, but does limit it. Generation gaps. Appreciation of culture and Creative feelings. Value of Tradition. Spiritual feelings that arise from tradition and experience. Spiritual Cultivation AND material comfort. Calmness. Keys to improving ourselves. Chi Kung and China! The accumulation of thousands of wise men. Treasure! Money will not buy Chi Kung. Reasons for Previous Secrecy: 1. Extreme value. 2. Difficult and dangerous. 3. Idea that secrecy adds potency. 4. Sexual portion thought immoral.
CHI KUNG SECRETS. Kept in blood lines for many years. Only Priests received the religious secret forms. Gradually revealed to laymen. Western science focuses on material development. Spirit science is harder to understand. Spirit Science is still in its formative stages. 10% of the brain in western scientific measurements. The "great nature" Infancy stage of spiritual science especially in the west. Chi Kung can be the central crucible for the learner. The secrets of chi Kung can withstand western science...and must be cross examined with it for mutual benefit. When a secret becomes common knowledge, it ceases to be a secret.
Wonders... abound in Enlightenment. Formerly secret training methods. Avoiding many pitfalls and acceleration of training through foundation of principles prior. Avoids the unnecessary unbeneficial forms of wandering and confusion. Large Tao. Without foreknowledge at some degree of destination, wandering is a natural outcome. Buddhism and Taoism. Kan Water and Lii Fire. Adjusting and balancing the Chi. Honor Tradition by augmenting for the current scenarios. In the Now with Honor.
Yi Gin Ching and Shii Soei Ching. Health and longevity. Muscle and tendons, Classic. Tendon changing/ Muscle changing. Change physical body from weak to strong. To "wash" and "clean" the bone marrow and brain. Ching. Enlightenment and Buddhahood. Chi. Lead the Chi to the bone marrow ans brain for nourishment...which makes possible clear reception of clarity.
What is Real Health? Body-physical: Yang. Mental body-Thinking - Relative to Chi~ Yin. Smooth Chi circulation. Blood cells. Blood cells carry Chi and are interdependent with it. Balance internally. The Chi and blood carry and regulate Chi balance. Must have plenty of chi. Spirit of Vitality. 8 vessels that store Chi, 12 Channels and 12 Internal Organs. The 12 channels are compared to Rivers, and the 8 vessels as Reservoirs...of Chi! Healthy body and long life...Chi Kung comes from Chinese Medicine. 4 major categories.
Major Chi Kung categories. Training goals. Scholar Chi Kung for emotive neutrality. Healthy mind and smooth Chi circulation = Health. Healing or Medical Chi Kung. Curing specific illnesses through use of specific circulatory methods. Martial Chi Kung. vigor and fighting ability. Religious Chi Kung. Buddhist and Taoist Monks ...Buddhahood. The most difficult form ...emphasis on leading The Chi to bone marrow for freshness and health and to the brain for nourishment. Chi abundance ...smooth flow into 12 channels, 8 vessels. Monks who lead the chi to the brain may achieve more Shen for Enlightenment.
Ti Chin Ging - Shii Seii Ching. Buddhist and Taoist approaches. Enlightenment - Buddhahood. Building up physical strength and Chi to lead it to the Marrow = Yi Din Ching. Shii Soei Ching is concerned with using this Chi to heal bone marrow and to realize the goal of SHEN ... and Shen Cultivation. Changing tendons and shaping them Yi Gin Kung Fu while Shii Soei kung Fu can alter the brain and the Shen. Increasing spiritual bravery and Power, Wisdom and intelligence. There is also Training for Essence, Chi, and Spirit. Mutually related. Buddhist is external, Taoist (Elixir) is internal. Cultivating Life and the Body supports cultivating the Tao and the voyage to Buddhahood and Enlightenment. Once achieved, the methods are relinquished as is the life without hesitation! Now to deeper explanation of each and the interrelation between SHII SOEI CHING and YI GIN CHING.
The Purpose of YI GIN CHING. Changing the body from weak to strong, sick to well. The physical body must be stimulated and exercised. Chi regulation. Purpose 1: Open up the Chi channels and maintain proper Chi flow and smooth circulation. Health of the related organs. Strengthen the human body. 2. Fill up the related Chi in the Governing and Conception Vessels (Ren Mei and Du Mei). Conception - 6 Yin channels. Governing - 6 Yang. 12 CHANNELS FLOW smoothly when these two reservoirs are properly filled. 3. Open the small channels to the surface of skin and promote the health of the skin and muscles. Shii Soet Ching. Higher Level... requires the necessary level of Chi.
THE PURPOSE OF SHII SOEI CHING. To use the abundant Chi from Yi Gin Ching. Wash the Marrow and Nourish The Brain. To fill up up the Chi in the other 6 vessels. 1. To build up the Chi and attract more Chi to RAISE THE SPIRIT. (Increase "marines and sailors within" in the physical and to convert it to Chi). 2. "Original Essence" "conserved, protected, and firmed." REGULATE THE USAGE OF ORIGINAL ESSENCE. 3. Learn to Lead Chi into the bone marrow to keep them fresh and to the brain to raise Spirits. RED & WHITE BLOOD CELLS are produced by the bone marrow. When healthy, it slows degeneration through dispersing healthy blood throughout the body. When the Spirit is raised, the body may be governed more easily. Enlightenment is the wedn goal of Chu Kung and these other aspects fall away at that point. They are steps in the process of building up "Ling Tao" ...the "Spiritual Baby" until it is independent and has its eternal life. YI GIN CHING and SOEI CHING can change our physical and spiritual life. The CHI KING practitioner who would receive these benefits must first have a profound understanding of relationship between Chi, Spirit Body, and Physical Body. These are contained in the YMAA books and training regimen. Master Yang states that "THE ROOT OF CHINESE CHI KUNG, THE SECRETS OF CHI KUNG TRAINING."
Signifigant influence. Chinese religious martial Arts. SYI JIN CHING and Shii Soei ching and chinese culture. Charn Tzong is considered to be Da Mo's Ancestor. Da Mo died in 539 AD. Jih Guang gave up his normal Life and continued the spread of chi kung. He conquered himself. SIX ANCESTORS OF CHARN. Japanese Zen Buddhism arises from this alchemy yet has no methods from it! Same with modern Charn buddhism! Buddahood. Taoism. Buddhism was imported from India. The Way The Tao... rtequired a very open minded Han Emperor to remian affleunt. Taoist anqd Buddhist monks would opften study together. After Da Mo died, huis secrets were found and expsed! Shaolin ...protection of the Temple. If one is strong within but weak without, they will be defeated. A new era in Chi Kung is forming...yet is escaping the shadows of former secrecy and censorship.
