Chapter 3 A sense of vitality, the beginning of practice
In the center of the courtyard is a lake.
The lake water with green waves shines golden light in the morning sun, like thousands of golden scales dancing.
The lake water is clear and the water plants and fish swimming under the lake are clearly visible. Pebbles the size of goose eggs are scattered casually, making the lake water look more and more bright and clear.
The lake is full of lotus flowers, either white like warm jade, red like flame, gold like gold, blue or jade, as big as wheels, and still bloom in spring.
A lake of lotus flowers, the breeze blows, and the fragrance of lotus fills the fragrance.
Among all the lotus flowers in the entire lake, there is a nine-grade white lotus that is particularly eye-catching, graceful and graceful, and the bright lotus petals are like thin jade pieces created by the best craftsmen in the world, crystal clear.
The breeze blows, the lotus petals tremble slightly, and the sunlight supported on it is like broken gold, and the jade light and golden light intersect, blending into obsessive colors.
Jing Younan sat cross-legged, opened the Taoist calligraphy techniques he got yesterday, and said word by word to calm down and understand.
This set of mind methods is called the "True One Sutra", which means that Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things. All things are born in one, and one is born in one Tao, so you can keep the True One to the Tao, so the scriptures are named.
The Immortal Sutra says: If you want to live forever, you should be clear about the true one. True one is born at the beginning of the Tao and become the mother of all things.
As the level of a monk improves, there will be a difference between high and low practice methods and endless changes. However, the initial "one" entry is almost the same. Most of the authentic Taoist sects in the world use this Zhoutian breathing technique as the most fundamental basis.
The entire "True One Sutra" can be divided into three parts: calming the mind and stopping the mind, the method of breathing the turtle, the sky and snake breathing, and the small Zhoutian transport technique.
Calming the mind and stopping thoughts is the foundation and the fundamental. If you want to practice, you must be as calm as water and not distracting thoughts. Otherwise, once the chaos arises and the mind is restless, even if you have the best mental method and Taoist tips, it will be useless.
Meditation and breathing are the way of practicing, one inhaling and one inhaling. When taking in the air, the breath is long. As much as possible, the surrounding air is inhaled into the lungs through the mouth and nose, then close the breath, imagine that the air flow sinks to the dantian, leaving the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the dantian, and exhaling the turbid air. One inhaling and one inhaling and one inhaling is a cycle, cycle repeating.
The law of the spiritual turtle and the sky snake breathing is to absorb energy like a black turtle, long and profound, the sea can absorb all the energy, and exhale like a heavenly snake, with threads and strands endlessly in the ears. Every breath is hard and soft, and it combines yin and yang.
The small circumference transport technique is after the Yuanli is formed. The Yuanli runs in the meridians according to the small circumference, opens up the meridians, removes miscellaneous qi, and nourishes the body.
After a long time, Jing Younan put down the scriptures and sat alone.
The eyes do not look around, the spirit returns to the mind, the mind is not externally related but quiet inside, the environment is not disturbed inside but quiet outside, cut off distracting thoughts, and stop the mind.
Imagine yourself turning into a spiritual turtle, floating out of the sea, with a hundred feet of body. With one suck, the wind and thunder vibrate, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is endless and cannot be stopped. Until the chest is tight and the breath is short, the whole body is sore, then the mouth and nose are opened, like a snake in the sky, and the turbid air overflows, strands, like a knife and arrow.
One inhalation and one exhalation, the breath is like a long and long black turtle, and the breath is like a thin and slow snake. It inhales spiritual energy, exhales turbid air, and flows back and forth, and cannot be interrupted.
After just breathing twelve times, Jing Younan opened his eyes, his eyes were dull and shaking.
"This breathing technique is so painful,"
Jing Younan frowned and his face was a little pale. If he practiced like this, let alone the feeling of venting his dantian, his whole body would soon collapse.
"I just meditate and breathe like this, and I don't know when I get the dantian feeling angry."
After thinking about it, Jing Younan put away the Taoist calligraphy techniques, went out, and went to the alchemy room in the temple.
The alchemy room looks like a huge furnace and cauldron, completely from the whole
1000
The 57-burning rock is made of, and from a distance, it looks like a large burning flame, thrusting straight into the sky.
Eight burly strong men were wearing their upper bodies, revealing their bronze dry skin, and were standing in front of the yard with a demon-subduing pestle, motionless like a nail. Seeing Jing Younan coming, the strong men bowed and bowed.
In Baiyun Temple, apart from the high-ranking Baiyun Temple Master, the Taoist priests and strong men are also divided into them.
The Taoists were disciples selected by Taoist Baiyun Jingxin. They practiced the "Pine and Crane Ten Thousand Life Skills". After being given the talisman in the Dantian by Taoist Baiyun, they lure their energy into their bodies, hold talismans and talismans in their hands, subduing demons and demons everywhere, and collecting incense.
The strong men are guards recruited by the Taoists themselves. They are all big and round, and have infinite strength. They can stop the enemy at critical moments, giving the Taoists plenty of time to eliminate monsters.
The strong men practice the great method of protecting the sight and the treasure trove of demons. They do not care about body care, but only kill and kill, which is the most ferocious.
Jing Younan is a relatively transcendent existence in the temple. He is not a disciple of Taoist Baiyun, but his status is much higher than that of ordinary Lishi.
As soon as I entered the yard, I was filled with a rich aroma of medicine. The elixirs and medicinal food taken by all the disciples of Baiyun Temple were refined here. The aromas of various spiritual medicines were mixed together, and the fragrance was swaying.
Jing Younan walked into the room on the left side of the alchemy room and saw a six-foot-high fire dragon medicine cauldron in the center, with the charcoal burning below, and the heat was in full swing.
There is also a jade table in front of the alchemy tripod, with more than a dozen kinds of spiritual herbs neatly placed on it, all with green leaves and full of spiritual energy.
Clean your hands, light incense, concentrate your mind.
Jing Younan calmed down and activated the Fire Dragon Medicine Cauldron and began to cook the medicinal meal.
Cooking medicinal food is not an easy task. If the dosage of medicinal materials, the combination of spiritual herbs, and the control of heat, all previous efforts will be wasted. You must know that spiritual herbs for making medicinal food are very precious. Once lost, it can make any wealthy person feel distressed.
Cooking medicinal food requires enough experience, and talent is even more indispensable.
In this regard, Jing Younan is the first person in the entire Baiyun Temple. He is in cultivating spiritual herbs and cooking medicinal foods.
2674
The talent was so amazing that even the Taoist priest Baiyun was awesome.
Tianxin Yangshen Soup is a medicinal food that Taoist priests in Guanli have to take every day. It can nourish the body and strengthen the soul.
To make Tianxin Yang Shen Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Medicinal Me
Cook the medicine cauldron with cooked fire, and the spiritual grass is warm and fragrant.
In less than half an hour, the six-foot-high Fire Dragon Medicine Cauldron vibrated violently, making clear and mysterious sounds. The alchemy energy above the medicine cauldron rose, with colorful colors and a strange fragrance.
The successfully prepared Tianxin Yangshen Soup is golden and scooped up with a special silver spoon. Each grain is full, like red gold.
“It’s really good.”
Jing Younan scooped up and ate it in big mouthfuls, and the smell of the hot air was emitted to his limbs and bones. After the breathing, he was exhausted and exhausted, and he was energetic.
"Continue to breathe,"
After recovery, Jing Younan sat cross-legged in the Danfang, exhaling and inhaling, and breathing spiritual energy.
For half a month, Jing Younan couldn't walk out in the alchemy room. During the day, he meditated and sniffed, cooked medicinal food, nourished the body, strengthened the body, and practiced the three-century fetal breathing spiritual method at night, combining the mind and the mind, and wandered outside the sky.
The Danfang where Jing Younan is located supports the medicinal food for hundreds of people in the entire temple, which is the top priority. Only Taoist Baiyun and Jing Younan are qualified to be in charge. The Taoist priests in the past were honest and knew that they could cook medicinal food for use in the Taoist temple. Now Jing Younan is not so stupid. He used all the spiritual herbs he could use, boiled medicinal food and took it himself.
Anyway, Taoist Baiyun went out for a long trip, and this Danfang was the largest in Jing Younan. Even if he blatantly custodially robbed himself, no one dared to take care of it.
In half a month, the spiritual turtle and sky snake breathing method has become much more proficient. The duration of a breathing cycle has increased from less than half a quarter of an hour to half an hour now.
"Ruan,"
With a long and profound inhalation, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth entered from the mouth and nose. Jing Younan's eyes were closed, his face was calm, and in a daze, his consciousness seemed to be integrated with the entire breathing process.
In a faintly, a spiritual turtle appeared in the void, inhaling for a long time, a heavenly snake exhaling for a thin and slow breath. The spiritual turtle, the heavenly snake, connected its head and tail, mixed into a black and white Tai Chi Yin and Yang fish, and slowly turned.
At this time, a mouthful of spiritual energy that had just been incorporated into the lungs was being sent to the dantian. The dantian, which had not felt before, suddenly sank, and the entire dantian seemed to be unable to bear the breath and bulged.
When the dantian moves, the qi is felt.
Suppress the joy in your heart, open your mouth gently, like a snake breathing, and the turbid air is spit out in strands and dissipates into the air.
As soon as the turbid air comes out, the dantian is clear and cool, and there is no longer the swelling feeling just now.
Grasp the feeling of qi and create an instant experience, strike while the iron is hot, Jing Younan is again and again, until his heart is short of breath and opens his eyes, there is an unconcealable ecstasy inside.
There was a trace of invisible breath in the dantian. If I hadn't felt it carefully, I would almost never notice its existence. However, it was this coolness that made Jing Younan so excited that he couldn't help himself. After half a month of meditation and breathing, he finally took the first step on the road of cultivation.
Those who have ambitions will succeed. Jing Younan stood there and laughed loudly, and was full of ambition.
After a long time, Jing Younan calmed down, and found that his Taoist robe was messy, his head was unkempt, and his body was filled with foul smell, which smelled very badly.
This is the first time that a monk washes his hair and cuts his marrow after he enters the state of Qi Sensation, and discharges impurities that were originally hidden in his body.
Shaking his head, Jing Younan came to the backyard of the alchemy room.
There is a hot spring in the backyard. The strongman in the door is surrounded by white jade railings. There are several peach trees as thick as bowls around. The peach blossoms are colorful and the fragrance of flowers is pleasant.
Soaking in the hot spring, washing away all the dirt, looking into the distance, you will see silver light sprinkling, the moonlight is like water, the night wind blows, and the world is clear.
Looking up at the vastness of the world, one is just a drop in it. The joy of promotion dissipates unconsciously, and is replaced by the difficulty of seeking the Tao.
Taoist Feiyu said it right. This body was originally slender and had many blockages, which cut off the path of cultivation. It was just by chance that the three-yuan fetal breathing spirit method could be realized. After three years of hair washing and marrow cutting, there was a glimmer of hope.
Fortunately, there is the authentic Taoist mental method and the nourishment of medicinal food day and night, and finally, I suddenly seized the only glimmer of vitality and successfully moved the Dantian qi.
And the sense of qi is the first step in practicing Taoism. The three realms of the mortal fetus are: the sense of qi, the essence, and the wise mind. One step is harder than another, and you will have to put in a thousand times more effort.
