The Gate of Emptiness: On the Dragon Gate lineage to connection to Spring Forest Qigong

So as I really enjoy reading Wang Li Ping's training manual book, Ling Bao Tong Zhi Neng Gong Shu, the "five elements meditation" was emphasized.

"Moving the Five Elements by Hand"

"moving and dissolving the five elements"

"Five elements movement"

Repeat the five elements movement six times

So as people may know the new active exercise for SFQ is also this five elements movement meditation. It's not precisely the same but close enough - very cool!

One of the new details for me is that just as Shen is from the heart and goes out of the eyes - the Yi as intention is of the spleen/stomach but is expressed via the MUSCLES - so that gives more credibility for external active exercise muscle training - to maintain the proper YI - it grounds the energy back into the lower tan tien.

The Wang Li Ping book also reminds me of the book Taoist Yoga: alchemy and Immortality - so chapter five of the Wang Li Ping book is about chapter 7 or so of the Taoist Yoga book. In other words the stage of storing up the Yuan Qi energy as the golden pill - I'm not doing justice to the teaching. But the training after immortal fetus breathing is achieved and the third eye is opened up.

So by page 56 we are already at ADVANCED training!

I hope people are enjoying the first full moon after the Solstice - the magnetic bliss is very strong at night.

Also the same mudra is taught in the Wang Li Ping book as in the Taoist Yoga book (which is also part of the Dragon Gate lineage) - so nice corroboration there! The Wang Li Ping book has an image of the mudra.

So obviously this is a life time (several life times) of training.

Another emphasis in the book that is in line with Spring Forest Qigong is the emphasize on Soul cultivation - Level 5 of Spring Forest Qigong (that I have not taken) - called LING in the Wang Li Ping book. So the connection to Ling is created once the light is seen and built up - seen externally as the Absolute Void - or as Wang Li Ping calls it:

The Gate of Emptiness

I told qigong master Jim Nance about Wang Liping stating six hours of full lotus meditation a day for a year was needed to restore the energy. Jim immediately said he wanted to me this person. haha. http://guidingqi.com to http://dragongateacademy.com
