Description
Golden Elixir is the fountain or water of life. It is the combination of saliva, hormonal fluids and external essences that when mixed together become the Elixir of Immortality. Taoists have long considered saliva as a key component for optimum health. Some Taoist texts recommend swallowing the saliva up to 1,000 times a day to promote physical healing. Thousands of years ago Taoists became aware of changes in the taste and consistency of saliva that accompanied meditative practices. They learned that by combining saliva with the hormonal fluids and essences released during sexual activities a powerful elixir is formed. Taoists believe that this Golden Elixir is not only a physical healing agent, but is also is a major transformative agent in preparing for higher spiritual work. Golden Elixer Chi Kung contains twelve postures that develop and utilise the healing power of saliva. Ten of these involve gathering energy and forces through the body's hair, which acts as a negative-energy filter and can be used to store surplus positive energy. Taoists regard the hair as antennae extending out into nature and the universe. By utilising the practices in this book, readers can develop delf-healing abilities and establish a better connection to the universe as a whole. Mantak Chia is the best-selling author of the Multi Orgasmic Man.
