Nei Dan includes the acquisition of major and minor medication as well as the transformation of energy, chi and spirit, which has been valued by Taoism. For the meaning of reaching the essence of self-cultivation, the achievement of Nei Dan Medication relies on the acquisition of minor and major medication as well as the transformation of energy, chi and spirit. After the acquisition of minor medication, the self-cultivation of major medication will become more crucial. Since there is a fixed process for self-cultivation, prescription, inspiration, acquisition, sealing and refinement, the explicit guidance of masters as well as the sensitive learning experience of students is needed in order to get the essence. It also happens that we shake our body involuntarily while concentrating on acquiring the major medication. Due to the fact that the study on the acquisition of Nei Dan medication has been done theoretically rather than practically, this paper aims at interpreting, with the aid of author’s personal experience of self-cultivation for many years, the original meaning of Nei Dan medication based on “Wu Liou Tan Fa”. Since late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, “Wu Liou Tan Fa” has been spread widely, and has strongly influenced Taoism. Those are the reasons why this paper is centered on “Wu Liou Tan Fa”. It is hoped that not only the scientific and philosophical meanings of Nei Dan will be examined in this paper but also its modern value. Moreover, author’s personal experience of self-cultivation for many years will be shared in this paper. |
