something like bronchitis - a sore throat, a cough with dry sputum. This phenomenon disappeared after a few months of practice. In addition, the suspension of the load from the textiles and the stuffing itself led to an almost uncontrollable desire for sex. To keep everything under control, one padding and 5 pearls was not enough. The practice of single qigong routines, regular practice of Taijiquan forms and sitting meditation are very important additional components.

After 12 months of stuffing, I began to look for methods that could compensate for the load and achieve results in safer ways - without spinal injuries, bronchitis and sexual desire.

Inner iron jacket method

The method is based on micromovements of the skeletal structure during the adoption of static positions for a long period of time. What are micromovements? The bones of our skeleton do not have a rigid attachment to each other. Even if we consider the structure of the joints, there will be a discrepancy in size between the articular cavity and the head of the joint. The head is much smaller. The free space is filled by the articular bag, cartilage and ligaments (the author does not aim to give an accurate description of the anatomy of the joint). Ligaments and tendons, no matter how rigid they may seem, nevertheless, cannot rigidly fix the bone - there is always a slight play, the possibility of displacement. Even if we take such a rigidly fixed structure as the skull, then even here there is play. After all, bone sutures are filled with cartilage tissue. With age, the cartilage ossifies, and the skull becomes denser and more rigid. In addition, there are muscles that contract and relax. In addition, there is breathing and blood flow. If you combine all this, force it to contract with one amplitude, then a resonance will arise and you will get a micromotion. Outwardly, the body seems motionless, but due to micro-movements, a person acquires tremendous power and strength. This is the only way to explain the story about the founder of Yang family taijiquan, master Yang Luchan. Someone challenged Master Yang to a duel. It was decided that the master would demonstrate how he holds the punch. The enemy stabbed Jan in the stomach. In response, the master burst out laughing, and the enemy flew off a few meters.

How can you get resonance? We have a great helper - our mind. Only with the help of consciousness can one take control of micromovements and turn them into a resonant wave. This is what is called jin. There are several varieties of it, but the principle is the same.

Practice

1. Five-beam method of stretching the limbs and spine

It is based on "5-gate breathing. But first you need to understand what stretching is. First of all, this is a mental representation. Extend your hand in front of you and imagine that you are trying to touch something that you cannot reach. At the same time, the muscles hands are only slightly tense.This slight tension must be remembered and able to reproduce.This representation is nothing more than a mnemonic device.Next representation: imagine that your spine, arms and legs are connected at one central point.This point will be your navel.Now reproduce the pulling tension of 4 limbs and the spine.In this case, the spine is stretched in two directions - down, from the coccyx to the ground and up - hang the top of the head to an invisible nail.For stability, it is necessary to reproduce all the elements of the "straight position" - support on 9 points of the foot, knees bend so so that it runs perpendicular to the highest point of the arch of the foot, the back is rounded, the chest is recessed, the shoulders are roundly. Five-arm stretching must be practiced constantly, whatever you do and whatever you do. You must constantly remember this. Even if you get distracted, you need to return to this idea and reproduce this method again. You have five points through which the rays pass - the center, the navel, the centers of the palms, the centers of the feet and the crown. An additional point is the perineum (the "gate of death" point). When performing the five-beam traction method, it is necessary to tighten the anus, keeping it in a slight tension, and tightly close the teeth.

2. Hanging the load on textiles

The practice of hanging the load must be continued. Every month you can increase the number of swings by 50 times. When the total number of swings reaches 400 times (before each double stuffing cycle, it is permissible to swing the load no more than 200 times), you can increase the weight of the load by 200 - 500 g. Then repeat the entire training methodology.

3. Tree hug posture and other positions

In principle, any other position can be used. But "tree hugging pose" has a number of advantages for the beginner over other positions. She is taller than so loads the joints and muscles of the legs. You can stay in it much longer than, for example, in the "iron horseman". In the "iron horseman" few people will stand for 10 minutes, in the "tree embracing pose" this is quite real. Finally, the tradition also starts from this position. At first, it is enough to spend 10 minutes in the position of embracing the "tree". Then the time goes up to 30 minutes. While in the position, the first type of qigong breathing is performed. It is necessary to go through all 6 types of breathing. Accordingly, the practice of the pose of embracing the tree will be three years. Then you should move on to bodily breathing and breathing of the 5th gate. These methods are practiced for 1 month. After that, you should move on to other positions - the golden tortoise pose, the golden bowl of the Yin and Yang position, santishi, the iron rider pose, the bow pose, the low whip position. Each posture is practiced for 1 month with 5 gate breathing. In the future, when all the positions are mastered, you can practice them all, one for each day.

4. Energy management meditation

After performing the Tree Embracing Pose, one should do the Microcosmic Orbit Meditation in the half-lotus or cross-legged Turkish style for 30 minutes.

Complicated Practice
Formation of the black pearl or body of light
(immortal baby Tai Xi)

1. "The wind shakes the willow", "capturing the heart and mind"

After 100 days of practicing all of the above positions, you can move on to the exercises "wind shakes the willow" and "capture the heart and mind." The execution time of "the wind shakes the willow" should be increased to 1 hour daily. "Heart and Mind Capture" is performed 1 to 3 times a day from 50 (per 1 workout) to 300 times a day.

2. Meditation "black pearl". Immortal Baby Tai Xi's Formation

After 100 days of practice, you can begin the "black pearl" meditation. The practice of the "internal immortality pill" began with this technique. To date, there is no clear description of this technique. Many the authors tried to give it, but the exercises turned out to be too difficult even for trained adepts. These techniques are described in most detail by Mantek Chia. He was trained by Taoist masters. But, despite the mastery of these techniques, Master Chia refused to go further, preferring the open dissemination of the knowledge gained from the Taoists. It is believed that today no one practices many ancient systems. The masters, who had been isolated for a long time, found that they had no one to share their knowledge with, no one to teach. For this reason, they decided to make the closed practices public. It was decided to disseminate knowledge not only among the Chinese, because among the latter there were few who wanted to preserve the integrity of the system. On the other hand, those who began to widely disseminate closed techniques began to be opposed. The most striking example is the fate of Zhou Zonghua. Zhou Zonghua lived in the US for many years. Periodically, he visited China, where he met with the masters, collected practical material. The master was writing his fourth book, dedicated to the practice of the "inner immortality pill" and the techniques of "paired sexual self-cultivation", when his life was tragically cut short. The master once again returned from China, carrying serious material with him. The plane he was on crashed. Based on the studied material and communication with a certain circle of people, I came to the conclusion that master Zhou Zonghua did not die by chance - there are no accidents - there is a reason for everything. Shortly before the trip, he stated that he owns real techniques that will allow him to extend his life for a significant period of time. By that time, the master had long passed over eighty years.

The methodology described in this work is hypothetical. The material is obtained by studying the works of Manteq Chia, Yang Junming, De Chan, in combination with the hints that Zhou Zonghua left in the book "The Tao of Meditation", where he began to describe the practice of the "internal immortality pill".

It should be noted that for the practice of the "black pearl" certain steps must be taken:

1. Completely abandon the traditional sex
