01 Chen Wangting's "Yellow Court" said.
In the summer of 1940, the Japanese martial artist Kenichi Sawai was defeated by Wang Qianzhai, the founder of Yiquan. Sakai begged for two years and worshiped Lao Xiang as his teacher. Abandon the muscles, bones, and flesh training of Japanese martial arts. Seven years is like a day, with the old man Xiyi boxing. After Yicheng, he created "Taiqi Fist". In 2001, he was named one of the top 10 martial artists in the world.
Yiquan is a martial art that applies the energy of spirit to actual combat. And the only way to develop the energy of the will and qi is the inner pill technique. Xiang Lao ** Mi Jingke wrote: The foundation of Yiquan is the art of Neidan; The key to the boxing technique is bioelectricity. The descendants of the old man changed the name of Yiquan to Dacheng Boxing, which is really putting the cart before the horse.
Sawai was very fortunate to have insight into the path to the pinnacle of martial arts—the Inner Danjutsu. Neidanshu, originated from ancient China, "Neijing" said: In ancient times, there were real people, lifting heaven and earth, and grasping yin and yang. Breathe the essence, guard the spirit independently, and the muscles are the same. Therefore, it can live in the world, and there is no end time, and this is the way of life. That's it.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling founded Taoism. With the belief in immortals, it is actually benchmarked against life sciences and the vision of immortality. Based on Lao Zhuang and Neijing. Philosophy, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Medicine. Take the static technique. From the outer Dan to the inner Dan, remove the false and keep the true, remove the coarse and retain the fine, and abandon the bad habit of taking lead and mercury. After more than 1800 years, to the Ming and Qing dynasties, the practice and theory of Neidan were mature.
During this period, a group of Dan Taoists became well-known doctors or martial artists in later generations, such as: Wei Boyang, Yu Ji, Tao Hongjing, Sun Simiao, Ge Hong, Zhong Liquan, Lu Dongbin, Chen Jun, Zhang Boduan, Wang Chongyang, Bai Yuchan, Zhang Sanfeng and so on.
From the Ming and Qing dynasties to **, a group of martial artists devoted themselves to martial arts innovation in order to seek breakthroughs in technical attacks. Take the inner dan cultivation as an introductory kung fu to boxing. Noncommittal, Chen Wangting is the first person. His "Long and Short Sentences" said: Gifted, in vain, and this year, the old and crippled, only ended up with a volume of "Huang Ting", when he was free, he made a fist, when he was busy, he ploughed the fields, and he took advantage of his spare time to teach some ** children and grandchildren, and it was convenient for Jackie Chan to become a tiger.
Huang Ting" is "Huang Ting Jing", written by Wei Huacun, a female Taoist priest in the Jin Dynasty. It is a classic of Taoist Inner Dan cultivation, written by Wei Boyang of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the King of Wangu Dan "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed", which is equally famous, and has the reputation of longevity. Integrating medicine, physics, chemistry, biology, physiology and other disciplines, emphasizing the importance of Neidan cultivation, and proposing a series of theories and methods of Neidan cultivation for health preservation, as well as cultivation techniques such as conserving the spirit, refining qi, and consolidating essence. The first mention of the theory of the three dantians perfected the doctrine of essence and energy. The study of ancient Chinese religion, philosophy, medicine and culture is invaluable.
Tai Chi, Qi also. Traditional Chinese philosophy and medicine believe that Qi is the material basis for the birth and evolution of all things in the universe. "Zhuangzi" said: "Heaven and earth, the form is also great; Yin and Yang are also very angry; The Taoist is just. Youyun: The life of people, the gathering of qi. If the qi gathers, it will be born, if it is strong, if it is strong, if it is weak, if it is weak, if it is dispersed, it will die.
Chen Wangting learned Neidan, that is, the technical system of refining gas. As the theoretical basis and introductory compulsory course of Taijiquan, and based on this, the establishment of Taijiquan is the innovation and development of traditional Chinese martial arts.
02 The pinnacle of Chinese culture - Neidan Studies.
Zen Buddhism, Dan Tao and Confucianism are the hallmarks of traditional Chinese culture. Looking at the world's religions, Taoism is the most scientific, practical and operable.
Before Zhang Daoling of the Eastern Han Dynasty founded Taoism, Confucianism was not separated. After the birth of Taoism, it absorbed the essence of Zen Buddhism and Confucianism, and believed in immortals, taking life science as the research object and immortality as the research goal.
The great virtues of the past dynasties, guided by Lao Zhuang Thought and based on the "Neijing", have embraced all rivers and rivers, made great efforts, integrated philosophy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine and other disciplines, and achieved achievements in the field of life sciences.
Professor Joseph Needham, author of "History of Chinese Science and Technology", said: Taoist thought is the foundation of China's science and technology. Jung, the originator of psychiatric medicine, found the key to developing the subconscious of the human brain from the Neidan technique. Professor Toynbee, the author of "Historical Research", believes that the 21st century is China's century, because China has Mahayana Buddhism, Confucius and Mencius, and Taoism. This is also China, which has become the only ancient country in the world that has retained its own culture and civilization.
From the pre-Qin to the two Han Dynasty, the formation of Nei Dan Xue, which is marked by the 1st century BC, Wei Boyang's "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed", which integrates Lao Zhuang's guidance and the art of qi, and creates the doctrine of shifting essence and changing qi, which is known as the king of the ancient Danjing.
After that, the Eastern Han Dynasty Yu Ji's "Taiping Sutra" first mentioned the doctrine of essence and qi and the art of keeping one; The outstanding contribution to the physiology of Neidan is the "Huang Ting Jing", the first application of the theory of meridians and viscera in the "Neijing" and the practice of Neidan, marking the establishment of the Taoist internal refining system.
Guidance, the combination of limbs and breathing, is designed to maintain longevity. The representative work is the play of Huatuo's five birds. Xingqi, that is, the technique of breathing cultivation and internal qi operation. Pay attention to the operation of the mind and internal qi, and regulate the meridians and viscera. The representative work is "Xingqi Jade Peiming", which is the earliest Inner Dan literature.
During the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, Neidan was popularized, and Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism were integrated. The representative figures are Lu Xiujing, Kou Qianzhi, Tao Hongjing, Zhiyi, Hui Si, Su Yuanlong, Zhang Guo, Sima Zhen, Sun Simiao, Zhong Liquan, Lu Dongbin, Chen Jun, Zhang Boduan, Wang Chongyang, Chen Zhixu, Li Daochun, Qiu Chuji, Wu Chongxu, Liu Huayang, Zhang Sanfeng, etc.
During the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, the Inner Dan was marked by the abandonment of external alchemy, and the clear Jinggong was a physical and mental refining technique. The representative work is Li Daochun's "Neutralization Collection".
The ** of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the inner Dan is declining. However, Zhao Shunchen, the old man of Qianfeng, made a sensation and contributed to the inheritance and innovation of Neidanxue.
03 The secret of Neidan's cultivation technique is revealed.
The so-called Neidan is the Dan family's borrowing of traditional Chinese medicine to extract (boil) experience and terminology to refine their own life. That is, the human body is the dan room, the heart and kidney are the furnace, the essence, qi and spirit are the medicines, and the mind and breath are the fire. Alchemy in the human body in order to prolong the length of life, broaden the quality of life, and even immortality.
In short, Neidan, that is, cultivation is the technique of refinement, qi, and spirit.
Essence. Including sperm, blood, jin and fluid. It refers to the true yin of the human body, which is the basic substance that has reproductive functions and promotes the growth and development of the human body. Gas. It is a subtle substance that runs in the body and is difficult to see; It also refers to the function of the activities of various organs of the human body. God. He is the supreme commander of all life activities such as spirit, will, perception, movement, etc. Including: soul, spirit, mind, will and other activities to reflect the health of the person.
Essence, qi, and spirit are divided into heavens. Jing is the mother of qi, qi is the handsome blood, God is the son of qi, or essence is the foundation of qi, qi gathers essence, complements each other, and God is the manifestation of qi.
As far as Fang ** is concerned, Neidan takes Jinggong cultivation as the practice system; Integrating Zen Buddhism and Confucian ethics; Based on the theory of meridians and viscera in the "Neijing"; Aim to develop the potential of the body and consciousness; With the size of the week as the basic way, the furnace, medicine, and heat are the three major elements; To refine oneself to build a foundation, refining and refining gas, refining gas and transforming gods, refining gods and returning gods to the void as procedures and levels.
The theoretical basis is based on Wei Boyang's "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed" in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wei Huacun's "Huang Ting Jing" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Zhang Boduan's "Wuzhen Chapter" in the Northern Song Dynasty as classics. The most seeking is the double cultivation of life and the unity of god and form. Realize the completeness and unity of the two major systems of body and mind. This is the ultimate value goal of Neidan.
Taoism is the native religion of China, and compared to the world religions, it has the most scientific and practical spirit. Taoism takes "my life is in my absence" as the proposition. With "cultivating the Tao in the body, loving the spirit and nourishing the spirit, and prolonging life" as the basic path; Follow Lao Tzu's "Tao Sheng."
1. A lifetime. Second, two lives.
3. The law of "three births and all things". To Shun Shengren and reverse Cheng Dan, I innovate and practice goals.
Shun, that is, a lifetime.
Second, two lives. 3. Three beings and all things, virtual gods, deification of qi, gasification of essence, refinement of form, form**; Reversed, all things contain three, three returns.
Two, two to one. Those who know the way of it, keep the form, cultivate the form and refine the essence, collect the essence and transform the gas, refine the qi and combine the spirit, refine the god and return the void, and the golden pill is completed.
04 The essence and technology of internal strength.
Internal strength, that is, the aggregation of energy of will, is essentially strong bioelectricity, and the external performance is extremely strong impact and endurance. There are both form and spirit, and it is said that it is bright or mixed with elemental force; The shape is not exposed, it is called dark energy.
The effect of internal strength cultivation: 1. Refining oneself to build a foundation, refining and refining gas, that is, the method of opening up the two veins of Rendu, takes about 100 days, so it is called 100 days to build a foundation. 2. Refining gas and transforming gods, that is, the method of opening up the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, takes about ten months, so it is called October pregnancy. 3. The cultivation of the Mixed Yuan Gong takes about 1 year. 4. Body-use combination, that is, the combination of bioelectricity with ideas, and actual combat. The four stages are all set for healthy adults, and provide approximate results according to the principles of meritorious teachers and meritorious service.
The physiological mechanism of Jinggong is to transform the subtle grains and the pure and nourishing qi of nature into essence and spirit, and further supplement and solidify the innate essence and spirit. The two are united into true qi, those who go inside are called camp qi, and those who are lost outside are called guard qi. To guide qi with intention is like a dantian, which is said to accumulate qi; If you are full of energy, you will do it, and then follow the order of the governor. Ren Du Tong, the rest of the pulse gradually opened. The phenomenon of still water flowing deep in the body of true qi naturally replenishes the brain and consciousness energy, accumulating over time.
The basic requirements for Jinggong cultivation are: choose a clean room, face south, close your eyes, practice three times a day, practice for more than 45 minutes per practice, and do not miss six roots. The biggest obstacle to the practice of meditation is lethargy and contemplation, among which the horizontal meditation is easy to get drowsy, and the standing meditation is easy to think. Those who have no drowsiness and worries for dozens of minutes are not picked. In order for Jinggong practice to be effective, three conditions must be met: closed eyes, sober mindfulness, and concentration. In this way, the qi can be guided to accumulate in the air pockets and accumulate qi to rush through the pass. Otherwise, being drowsy or constantly thinking is equivalent to drawing water with a bamboo basket.
There are three postures for meditation practice, namely standing, sitting, and lying, and only the sitting posture is the most conducive to controlling drowsiness and thoughts. Therefore, the practice of sitting meditation is the first link of standing pile gong. After being able to grasp and control the drowsiness and thoughts, stand on the pile.
The second link of the station pile is the station poleless pile. That is, after adjusting the body, pranayama, and heart, the two hands are covered in the dantian, and the inner hand is the left of the man and the right of the woman. This is the "simmering dantian", which is the heavenly opportunity of the same heart. Practice 3 times a day, more than 45 minutes per practice, about 100 days or so, can be a superintendent, both small Zhoutian.
The third step is to stand on the Tai Chi pile. The method is the same as above, only the two hands hang down on the side of the body, which is beneficial to the three yin and three yang meridians of the hands. It is required to be the same as the Wuji pile, about 10 months, after the eight veins of the strange meridian are all connected, and then stand on the mixed yuan pile.
The fourth link is called the mixed element pile. After the three adjustments, the two hands are held in front of the chest, the ten fingers are opposite, the front does not win the ruler, and the back does not clamp the arm, and the body is like an empty pocket. Light, empty, spiritual, and loose are self-generated. Depending on the physique and diligence, it takes about 1-2 years for the body to have a great endurance.
Finally, there is the technical piling. Those who use boxing as the style and last more than 30 minutes are all technical piles. After 1-2 years of cultivation, you can produce a powerful impact. The last two steps are called "kung fu" by the older generation of martial artists, and the method of fighting is called technique, and kung fu plus technique is worthy of being called martial arts.
This kind of kung fu is not once and for all. Qi is the means of transporting blood, jin and liquid, and the meridians are the channels of qi. If the horse is put into the South Mountain, the knife and gun are put into the warehouse, and the practice is stopped, the meridians will be used in and out, and sooner or later they will be blocked. Among the older generation of martial artists, there are many people who have rich offerings for their children and grandchildren, have a thick diet, neglect to practice, get out of shape, and are in a state of ointment.
