Foundational Tao Alchemy Meditations

To Cultivate the True Immortal Self

1st Lay a Foundation of Love & Balanced Chi Flow

1a. Inner Smile radiates Heart/Soul Presence of our Original Spirit (yuan
shen) into the physical body-mind. This radiates Unconditional Acceptance
and Unconditional Love from our inner heart (soul) as the foundation of all
lasting chi cultivation. Learning how our heart-soul can safely radiate its True
Presence allows us to shape our chi flow and become who we truly are
destined to be. It is a practical way to meditate while engaged in daily life.
Inner Smile cultivates our chi as a deep act of self-love. Yin practice allows to
love our body, its tissues, our organ spirits, and to dissolve past energy
patterns (positive and negative) that unconsciously shape our reality. Yang
practice is to radiate a loving Inner Smile out to our friends, family,
community and Nature. Inner Smile is the simplest and most profound body-
centered Tao practice to grow our sense of harmony. It strengthens our inner
virtues (moral compass) and integrates outer life with inner meditation and
delivers true peace to our soul.
1b. Microcosmic Orbit to balance and circulate chi in the Energy Body. It is a
dynamic meditation creating a balanced, yin-yang flow of perpetual golden
light chi circling around the spine and chest. Also known as small heavenly
round or embryonic breathing, this meditation balances the pre-natal chi
(from Heaven) and post-natal blood (from Earth, body, and ancestors) and
stabilizes all yin-yang chi flow in the meridians.
2nd Cultivate Harmonious Feelings

2. Fusion of the Five Elements 1 is about cultivating our original or true
feelings, before they are corrupted by resistance and ego struggle. This is
accomplished by harmonizing the five phases of chi flow (wu xing). Fusion 1
practice transforms negative emotions into positive, virtuous chi flow. It
harmonizes the Five Spirits (shen), the biological-psychological intelligences
of the personal self.
These Five Vital Organ spirits, also known as the Inner Body Gods, fuse their
essence (jing) and natural virtue (de) into a pearl of original chi (yuan chi) in
the belly cauldron (lower dantian). This purified chi pearl is then circulated in
the 5 Elements Creation Cycle. When the emotional chi is harmonized, then
sexual energy can be more deeply and safely cultivated.

Balance our 8 Cosmic-Psychic Forces

3. Fusion of Five Elements 2 and 3. The pearl activates the yin-yang pulsation
of the eight cosmic forces (I Ching trigram energy) that flow into the Eight
Extraordinary Vessels of the human body. These deep energy channels form
the blue print or matrix of our personal Energy Body, and supplies the twelve
regular meridians with chi.
When these eight psychic energy channels are activated, they collectively open
the Macrocosmic Orbit (or large heavenly round) and can heal at a very deep
level. Faster and far more powerful than acupuncture or herbs for healing
chronic illness and ancestral (genetic) issues.
This practice opens deep awareness of chi field beyond the body, hence its
reputation for awakening psychic powers (known as the eight Siddhas in a
parallel Indian tradition). We activate the Nine Cosmic Spirals that allow us to
expand our Energy Body out to the far edge of the Cosmos and receive
guidance and renewal from the universal chi field.

4th Inner Sexual Alchemy: Heal our Male/Female Soul-Split

4. Lesser Enlightenment of Kan and Li (Water & Fire), also known as Inner
Sexual Alchemy. This practice presupposes some skill in the Taoist Healing
Love sexual cultivation art of semen retention for men and partial lessening of
the menstrual cycle in women. It involves a shift from horizontal Fusion of the
Five Elements (Post-natal or manifest chi) to vertical axis coupling of Three
soul aspects: Fire-Inner Male, Water-Inner Female, & True Earth-Portal of
Self-Creation.
The Kan & Li method of spiritual self-intercourse couples primal Fire and
Water chi in the body. This is the first and critical stage of dissolving the
personal mind-body split (and its resulting diseases). We unify all male and
female soul fragments in the lower belly cauldron (dantian- center of gravity).
This alchemical internal sex clears out all our old outer sexual relationship
patterns, and creates a feeling of spiritual pregnancy that can last 9 months.
We physically feel a deep body bliss known as the formation of the immortal
embryo.
When primal fire and water chi are steamed in the belly, it produces Original
Chi that dissolves deep genetic patterns and false yin and yang syndromes in
our personality and body. It opens our Inner Eye at all levels of the bodys core
channel, thus enhancing and our ability to see inside our body and matter. A
special Black Pearl meditation allows us to dissolve our shadow sides Inner
Demons, by taking them on a journey into the pre-natal portal.
