Nebulously Confused Qi


The article on ShengQi by the rambling of one instructor of the academy is worth contemplating. Perhaps, the following doodles may spade some light over the nebulously confused understanding of ShengQi.

Tapping into ShengQi and riding ShengQi have a different meaning. One is receiving the external Qi and the other, the internal Qi. That is why they are different. I believed this was not taught in the so called academy. Nebulous is not accurate, confusion yes, nebulously confused is better. The question is why? Simply because one do not understand the meaning of YuanKong.

To bury is to ride ShengQi indeed was the word of the Grandmaster, he never said to bury is to tap ShengQi, why? SanHe practitioner may explain in term of landform regarding the Xue, the spot with the 4 guardians guarding in position. They also explain the way of riding on it but they never write about it. This is the much abused oral secret, so to speak.

In the darkest spot, white is born. How could such not found in the modern environment? If we say such as a departing point to give birth to SanYuan to improve the SanHe principle, then we are absolutely putting ourselves into blunder. SanYuan is simply the mirror image of SanHe. Similarly true was the published transliterated book by a westerner based on the woodblock by a Master practising in the early Emperor QianLong Qing Dynasty period, with messed up interpretation on the principles, currently selling in an exorbitant price.

Such nebulously confused understanding was also found in the eight mansion method, currently understood by the masses. Such a term ShengQi is simply a name not its limitation of use. XuanKong practitioner may use the notion of growth, prosper, weakening and killing in their deductions of palace and star relationship. However, such understanding is merely on the transformation of the 5 elements, and not riding ShengQi. They are chasing after the prosperous stars, activating them and tap into them with a mislead order or RuGong PaiLong. That is why it could not last. Let alone, NiuJuan QianKun.

Hi Jade,

How could I write Dao, when it is written it is no longer Dao? The digestion takes a life time, some takes even more. As a matter of fact, simplicity, once you catch it is no longer simple. Well said, well said.

Take care.
