Yang Chi Ching cultivation
I have been playing for a couple of weeks with the exercises in a book I bought called ‘Taoist Secret of Love: Cultivating Male Sexual Energy’ by Mantak Chia, the book talks about Yang Ching Chi cultivation in other words storing male sexual energy in the brain (Note: for beginners it is much safer to store Chi energy in the subnavel). The book is packed with techniques , exercises and background information, Mantak Chia is certainly not a great writer. I found his book confusing and difficult to read however it contains goldmine information on Ching Chi.
I did the testes breathing and Big Draw exercises and I felt the effect in my brain immediately (normally it should take several months), the feeling in the brain means that you far exceed your chi capacity according to Chia, quoting the book:
The power (chi ching) can drill through the plates of the skull, increasing cranial capacity and opening direct access to higher energies. The practices advocated herein may allow one to regain part of the prodigious learning and regenerative powers of the child. The only humans with loose skull sutures are the evolved adept and the infant.
After one or three months of practice the beginner at seminal retention may experience a certain feelings of pressure in the head….
This feeling of pressure is the vital power rising up to the top of the head with unaccustomed intensity . It is a sign of progress: The body has far exceeded its usual capacity of life force.
It was about time I have been doing energy work (tai chi) almost daily during the last 5 years .
The book deals with a lot of topics that I m not necessarily interested at this time a lot of emphasis in couple practises, because the best benefit is always gained with the union of Yin Chi ching (female sexual energy), this book isn’t a stand alone system it is recommended to read ‘Awaken healing energy through the tao’ also by Mantak Chia, it has safety information missing in this book, I will recommend this book for people involved in energy work with more than 3 years of practises and understanding of energy body system (meridians, chakras, acupuncture points ,…) otherwise you can still start from scratch but only blame yourself if you get discouraged after a while, this is no newbie material may be you can get yourself familiar with a DVD or attempt a workshop from Mantak Chia, this is no newbie book in the sense that many important information are missing only someone with experience will notice that. I rate this book four stars out of five
