Spontaneous InflammationWhen the pearl is shining and stable in the Lower Tan Tien, it will be the source of energy
for all the organs. The place where the pearl is kept is the area of the small intestine. In
Chinese medicine this is the yang meridian of primary fire, the center of transformation.
When the pearl is stronger and more refined, it can be moved towards the heart cen-
ter. While the small intestine fire is more a physical fire, the fire of the heart carries a
higher vibration. This fire is related to the quality of the sun, the soul and the state of
compassion. It is the practitioner’s task to create the right internal condition for this by
self-cultivation and good deeds to the benefit of all beings. In the Kan and Li or Immortal
Practices, the pearl moves up to the center of the head. It moves up by itself as the fruit of
self-transformation. At this point the pearl changes and acquires a very high frequency,
related to the world of spirit. During meditation practice it is good to expand one’s energy
field and connect with all forces of the universe. Subsequently contracting and storing in
the Lower Tan Tien will make these energies available in your daily life. During meditation
we can use the moon and earth force in the Lower Tan Tien, the sun energy in the Middle
Tan Tien and the North Star energy in the Upper Tan Tien.
