bagua replied to the topic What is "Kidney Yin"? What is "Kidney Yang"? in the forum Philosophy 9 years, 9 months ago
Hello:
I suggest you focus your attention on one area at a time.
For the human body and medicine the Chinese medical term for dna is Jing, which contains the life code. In Chinese philosophy, the one (the dao) gives life to the two (Yin-Yang). In Chinese medicine, the one, which is Jing, gives life to Yin and Yang. Jing is stored in the…[Read more]

Hello Ryan:
It seems to me they bifurcate life. They are very dual, which is in total contradiction to Lao Zi. They feel post-natal is post-natal. That Jing and even the Chong channel must be viewed as prenatal jing and post-natal jing. They split life into two. I don’t think this is tao.
We are an integration of heaven and earth. In this…[Read more]

I feel under this theory, there is nothing that is pre-natal or early heaven in this life.
I believe this is a mistake, and opposes the fundamental insights of the Taoists. Which is the inseparable nature of Heaven/Human/Earth or Jing/Qi/Shen.
From this view, there can never be early heaven in this life. We can not have Heaven on…[Read more]

To my understanding, the way Michael uses this
terminology is as follows:Pre-natal = Early Heaven = Formless realm
Post-natal = Later Heaven = Realm of form (Here)
*******************
I believe this is an incorrect understanding. The formless exists in this life too.As for “yuan qi”, there can be pre-natal yuan qi or post-natal…[Read more]

Its good you state they are your views.
I think adel was trying to understand MW’s view. I believe in that view the souls experience life, these experiences are processed. If we do alchemy, they are processed in a way that benefits your life, and your spirit, which allows you to transform and grow.
If you don’t process them well, you get…[Read more]

I think some take great liberty in how they define terms. They in a way make them up.
It seems in michael view, there can be no pre-natal, early heaven and pre-heaven energies in our current life. Well, can there be immortals in this life, on this planet? If yes, dont they have these early heaven energies?

This is where I tend to disagree with your view. This view is dualistic. We live in a life that contains pre and post natal influences. The only way we can connect to or cultivate Yuan Shen is if we have Yuan Shen inside us. Yuan Qi comes from the kidneys, post-natal comes from the spleen/stomach and Lungs: Gu Qi and Zong…[Read more]
