ness in the area. If they have any kind of sensation other than what
they normally experience in their meditation, they can shift their
attention down to the Hui-Yin (perineum), midway between the anus
and penis or vagina.Third Energy Center: Hui-Yin or Perineum......................
The Hui-Yin or Gate of Life and Death is found in the lower part of
the trunk amidst the endings of many blood vessels and nerve
endings. It is located at the mid-point between the anus and the
penis or the vagina. Because it is lower, it tends to lose power. You
can help stimulate this point by rubbing it until you feel it is warm.
This area is very tender and you must remember not to rub too
hard.
When you concentrate on the Hui-Yin, the time needed to col-
lect and awaken the power is different in each person due to differ-
ences in genetic make-up. Some might take long, some might not.
But, on the average, it should take two to four weeks if you practice
twice a day for 15 to 30 minutes at a time.
If you still don’t feel anything by then, you can extend the
time for up to four weeks. You should not persist any longer
than that. Move on to the next point, otherwise you might get
congestion in your chest and/or heart pain. If this happens, it
means that you have developed and collected too much
power in that area. Instead of the power having travelled
down to the base of the spine it has gone up to the chest.
Shifting your concentration to the Ming-men solves the prob-
lem and you will be symptom-free in a few days.Fig. 4.6 Third Energy Center: For both men and women the Hui-Yin
