INTERMEDIATE LEVEL: Foundations of Spiritual Practice

Course 10: Lesser Enlightenment (Kan and Li); Opening of the Twelve Channels;
Raising the Soul and Developing the Energy Body

Lesser Enlightenment of Kan and Li (Yin and Yang Mixed): This formula is called Siaow Kan Li in Chinese, and involves a literal steaming of the sexual energy (Ching or creative) into life-force energy (Chi) in order to feed the soul or energy body. One might say that the transfer of the sexual energy power throughout the whole body and brain begins with the practice of Kan and Li. The crucial secret of this formula is to reverse the usual sites of Yin and Yang power, thereby provoking liberation of the sexual energy.
This formula includes the cultivation of the root (the Hui-Yin) and the heart center, and the transformation of sexual energy into pure Chi at the navel. This inversion places the heat of the bodily fire beneath the coolness of the bodily water. Unless this inversion takes place, the fire simply moves up and burns the body out. The water (the sexual fluid) has the tendency to flow downward and out. When it dries out, it is the end. This formula reverses normal wasting of energy by the highly advanced method of placing the water in a closed vessel (cauldron) in the body, and then cooking the sperm (sexual energy) with the fire beneath. If the water (sexual energy) is not sealed, it will flow directly into the fire and extinguish it or itself be consumed.
This formula preserves the integrity of both elements, thus allowing the steaming to go on for great periods of time. The essential formula is to never let the fire rise without having water to heat above it, and to never allow the water to spill into the fire. Thus, a warm, moist steam is produced containing tremendous energy and health benefits, to regrow all the glands, the nervous system, and the Iymphatic system, and to increase pulsation.
The formula consists of:
  1. Mixing the water (Yin) and fire (Yang), or male and female, to give birth to the soul;
  2. Transforming the sexual power (creative force) into vital energy (Chi), gathering and purifying the Microcosmic outer alchemical agent;
  3. Opening the twelve major channels;
  4. Circulating the power in the solar orbit (cosmic orbit);
  5. Turning back the flow of generative force to fortify the body and the brain, and restore it to its original condition before puberty;
  6. Regrowing the thymus gland and Iymphatic system;
  7. Sublimation of the body and soul: self-intercourse. Giving birth to the immortal soul (energy body).

Course 11: Greater Enlightenment (Kan and Li);
Raising the Spirit and Developing the Spiritual Body

This formula comprises the Taoist Dah Kan Li (Ta Kan Li) practice. It uses the same energy relationship of Yin and Yang inversion but increases to an extraordinary degree the amount of energy that may be drawn up into the body. At this stage, the mixing, transforming, and harmonizing of energy takes place in the solar plexus. The increasing amplitude of power is due to the fact that the formula not only draws Yin and Yang energy from within the body, but also draws the power directly from Heaven and Earth or ground (Yang and Yin, respectively), and adds the elemental powers to those of one's own body. In fact, power can be drawn from any energy source, such as the Moon, wood, Earth, flowers, animals, light, etc.
The formula consists of:
  1. Moving the stove and changing the cauldron;
  2. Greater water and fire mixture (self-intercourse);
  3. Greater transformation of sexual power into the higher level;
  4. Gathering the outer and inner alchemical agents to restore the generative force and invigorate the brain;
  5. Cultivating the body and soul;
  6. Beginning the refining of the sexual power (generative force, vital force, Ching Chi); LI>Absorbing Mother Earth (Yin) power and Father Heaven (Yang) power. Mixing with sperm and ovary power (body), and soul;
  7. Raising the soul;
  8. Retaining the positive generative force (creative) force, and keeping it from draining away;
  9. Gradually doing away with food, and depending on self suffi ciency and universal energy;
  10. Giving birth to the spirit, transferring good virtues and Chi energy channels into the spiritual body;
  11. Practicing to overcome death;
  12. Opening the crown;
  13. Space travelling.

Course 12: Greatest Enlightenment (Kan and Li)

This formula is Yin and Yang power mixed at a higher energy center. It helps to reverse the aging process by re-establishing the thymus glands and increasing natural immunity. This means that healing energy is radiated from a more powerful point in the body, providing greater benefits to the physical and ethereal bodies.
The formula consists of:
  1. Moving the stove and changing the cauldron to the higher center;
  2. Absorbing the Solar and Lunar power;
  3. Greatest mixing, transforming, steaming, and purifying of sexual power (generative force), soul, Mother Earth, Father Heaven, Solar and Lunar power for gathering the Microcosmic inner alchemical agent;
  4. Mixing the visual power with the vital power;
  5. Mixing (sublimating) the body, soul and spirit.
