Chapter 21 [Three Talents, Twenty-five Essences]
The true spirit is originally in Hunyuan, and the father's sperm and mother's blood teaches his body, three talents and orifices, two and five essences, and all things are born when heaven and earth are in contact. Now I will tell you to listen to this wonderful secret and supreme way, and you will be free in the sky as soon as possible.

When I returned to my grandfather's house, the lights in my mother and grandfather's room were not turned off, obviously waiting for me. Fortunately, my father and Grandpa Fan had not returned yet, so I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, with my father's temper, even if Uncle Wang Liang sent me back, he would have to deal with me as soon as my uncle left. I was the biggest. I could take Uncle Wang's punch, but I couldn't handle the four-finger-wide cowhide belt on my dad's waist...
While Uncle Wang was talking to his mother, I put the hidden knife under the pillow in my room before running out to take Uncle Wang into the car with my mother. Before leaving, Uncle Wang said meaningfully: "Xiaodong, don't forget our agreement... Come and play with my uncle more if you have time."
I looked at this master Baodan who pretended to be at home and nodded silently, "Anyway, my mother's good friend has set her sights on me..."
After seeing Uncle Wang off, my mother turned around and glared at me: "Next time, come back so late, be careful that I will break your legs! Why don't you go see your grandfather quickly? You haven't come back so late, and my grandfather has been worried that he hasn't sleep."
My heart felt hot. This was my grandfather’s habit. I didn’t come back. Even if he was sleepy or tired, he would definitely not sleep and wait for me...
Running into the room where my grandfather lives, I whispered: "Grandpa, I'm back."
"Is it Xiaodong? Come on, come on, grandpa has left you something delicious..."
Under the dim light, Grandpa leaned against his bed from the Republic of China and coughed in a low voice. Seeing me in, Grandpa's tense face loosened significantly, and he took out two oranges from the head of the bed and handed them to me tremblingly.
I remember when I was younger, my dad hadn’t gone out to perform in the cave, and I had a grandmother who was ill in bed at home, so my financial conditions were not good. I occasionally bought some fruit and gave it to my grandfather and grandmother first, but my grandfather always saved his own share and left it to me.
Life is getting better now, and the family doesn’t lack fruits, but my grandfather still waits for me to leave fruits for me every day like before.
I felt sad and plunged into my grandfather's arms: "Grandpa, don't wait for me next time. You are old and you must ensure your sleep."
"Haha, if my little Dong doesn't come back, why can grandpa sleep?" Grandpa held me in his arms and gently tied my face with his beard: "Your mom scolds you again? Looking back, grandpa avenge you, ahem..."
Seeing that my grandfather was coughing more and more severely, I suddenly had a bold idea.
I put down the orange in my hand, climbed onto the bed and leaned behind my grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I'll help you with your back."
"Okay, my little Dong is so filial..."
"Well, grandpa, don't worry, after I beat your back for you, your illness will be cured..." I quietly released the acquired consciousness spirit and threw it into my grandfather's body to carefully check the condition of his lungs.
Sure enough, under the scanning of my consciousness, my grandfather's lungs showed a shadow as big as a fist, which should be the reason why my grandfather coughed.
I didn't care about it, gently pressed the Jianjing point on both sides of my grandfather with my hands, and used my consciousness to guide the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in my body, and sent it to my grandfather's lungs. Sure enough, with the input of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the shadow faded a lot. In this way, just do it a few more times, it will be completely eliminated.
I was happy and tried to divide another strand of vital energy into my grandfather's body, sort out the eight strange meridians for him, and passed the twelve serious meridians. It was not until I saw this strand of vital energy being completely absorbed by my grandfather's body that I breathed a sigh of relief and stopped the massage.
"Well, my little wooden door is so awesome. Grandpa is much more comfortable now..."
Grandpa turned around and looked at me in surprise. When I saw that my grandpa's originally cloudy eyes seemed to have become much brighter...
"Oh, it's successful. The spiritual energy generated by the heaven and earth and the merit book of the world are indeed useful. Find an opportunity in the future and try it on your parents!"
I was delighted, and suddenly I felt a heat in the lower dantian and a new vital energy was produced.
It’s so good. Just now, I was touched by family affection and only thought about treating my grandfather’s illness. I completely forgot what kind of merit and vitality. It seems that the Book of Merit on Earth has memorized me and rewarded me with a new vitality!
"Grandpa, please rest quickly, I'm going to bed, too."
After leaving my grandfather's room, I quickly washed my face and hands and returned to my own room. Uncle Wang Liang just told me a lot of theories about the Hunyuan True Spirit, which I need to organize and understand.
***
Uncle Wang Liang's words in the car made me connect a lot of fragmented knowledge and vaguely understand what the so-called Hunyuan True Spirit is.
All things in the world have their origins. The so-called trees have roots and water has their origins. People are naturally born from the sperm and mother's blood.
But the father's sperm and mother's blood are only shaping the body. That little bit of true spirit comes from Hunyuan, contaminated with acquired world, and becomes acquired consciousness, regenerating three souls and seven spirits, and the body of the bardo. But all the origins and natural spiritual wisdom are actually from Hunyuan.
Because this true spirit comes from Hunyuan, is born from heaven and earth, and his parents shape it, borrows the power of the three talents of heaven, earth and man, so Zhang Sanfeng's real talent said in "The Rootless Tree":
"The tree without roots, the flowers are prosperous, but when it comes to roots, there are roots. The three talents and orifices, the two and five essences, all things are born when the heaven and earth are in contact, the sun and the moon are in contact, and the cold and heat are smooth, and the men and women are in contact. It is very clear that if you say you are still afraid that you will not recognize the truth..."
As long as you are a cultivator, the ultimate goal is to try to find the innate spirit in Hunyuan, and your nature and skills can be completely complete. If you cannot find it, even if you practice the Yang God or the physical body to become a saint, it will only be to cultivate the sexual and life skills to the extreme, not the true harmony of life, and the golden elixir path; the Yang God will dissipate one day, and no matter how strong the physical body is, it will decay. There is still 108,000 miles away from the Great Way that lives with the heaven and earth.
Uncle Wang Liang practices martial arts, and there is no question of cultivating nature. Even if he cultivates life, he belongs to the outsider. His only hope is to find the true spirit of Hunyuan, so he valued my understanding of the hidden sword so much.
The three talent secrets do not refer to the "Tao Key" that the Taoist people often say. The so-called Taoist can have different locations of thoughts in each sect, but their functions are all communication with the heaven and earth. They hope to open the three talent secrets and find the bridge of the Hunyuan True Spirit. Some Taoists actually regard the Three Talents as the void land three inches ahead of people, and regard it as the Taoist orifice, and try their best to think about it, but they do not know that this is completely a distorted understanding of the Taoist books and deviate from the great way!
The real Taoist orifice has no place in the acupoints in the whole body, but nowhere is impossible, it depends on personal opportunities and merits. I chose the "spontaneous act" before, and I did not rush to identify one as Taoist orifice. Now it seems that it conceals the truth of Taoist "inaction" and is wrong.
But the Taoist tray has not been activated yet, so I am also anxious...
ps: To say a few more words, many practice books describe "innate" as a very low level, which is wrong. Innate people communicate with Hunyuan, and when they reach the innate, they are stepping on the great way and achieve great success. What are the absorption of spiritual energy in heaven and earth, training the Yin God, achieving Yang God, and becoming a saint in the flesh, are actually still in the acquired realm!
Dear fellow Taoists, in order to achieve the innate path, I will throw us two more tickets and add a collection at will? Finally, Happy March 8th Day:) Haha...
