Five-Element Diet was invented by Dr. Tateishi Kazu, an expert in cytology in Japan.  He first suffered from cancer of the duodenum and spreading.  Although his stomach was removed, the cancer cells already had spread to his lungs.  To fight for his life, he researched, studied, and tested over 1,500 types of herbs and plants.  Finally, he discovered the right combination of ingredients and formulated a unique healing soup—Five-Element Vegetable Soup—with its own molecular powers.

In fact, this soup is based on the principle of Chinese Five Elements, the harmonizing balance of the forces “Yin” (the energy being accumulated, assimilated and stored for later use) and “Yang” (the energy being expended in order to create a manifest action), supplemented by the theory of acid and alkaline diet.  In short, balance is the key to health as opposed to the imbalance that leads to illnesses.

The theory of Five Elements has long existed in China.  It suggests that foods, seasons, human organs, and state of minds all connect with each other.  To elaborate, the Five Elements in our environment (metal, wood, water, fire, earth) correspond to different aspects of the natural world and the body.  For instance, wood corresponds to spring and wind in the natural world and to the liver, gall bladder, eyes, and tendons in the body.  And for foods, bitter taste corresponds to heart, sourness corresponds to livers, sweetness corresponds to stomach and spleen, saltiness corresponds to kidneys and bladder.  We need to adjust and balance their intake subject to our body conditions to retain healthy.

The specific vegetables that Dr. Kazu used are based on the individual color essence of the five elements: daikon/radish of white (metal), daikon/radish leaves of green (wood), dried black mushroom of black (water), carrot of red (fire), and burdock of yellow (earth), which also relate to the corresponding internal organs: lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, and spleen.

All in a natural form, these vegetables are rich in amino acids, calcium, chlorophyll, iron, and phosphorous.  After all, plants grow in an active and vibrant environment in a balanced soil, which make them an excellent source of health supplements and even natural remedies for diseases.

RED SUN
by Max Christensen

This method as given to me by a hung-moon teacher in Taos, New Mexico.

Sit in a chair, feet flat with your fist closed on top of your thighs. Sit for a moment until the mind is empty and relaxed. Imagine, in the middle dantien area, a small, golf ball sized ball of glowing matter. This matter looks like a hot coal from a fire. It glows and it has hot vapor around it.

See it as very real within the center of your chest.

Now inhale through your nose gently, enough so that you can hold your breath in a neutral state (about 2/3 of capacity). After the inhalation, swallow hard with a gulping sound, tuck your chin, but keep the spine and neck aligned.

Slightly tighten the anus, so energy doesn’t leak, now hold the breath neutrally. You will feel like your air will dissipate quickly, so if this happens inhale tiny amount of air, to get the neutral feeling. If you over-inflated, blow some air out.

As you are running out of air, relax.

You will begin to feel this implosive, shrinking feeling as your lungs convulse for air. The energy will begin to ping-pong up and down in your chest. It may feel like you are going to die, but you won’t. Relax more and with your mind, see the coal getting brighter and brighter, hotter and hotter, so when you feel you can’t hold it anymore, say to yourself, melt, melt, see the heat melt the body.

If you can hang in this state and keep melting more and more each time the (death) feeling hits, you may feel like you are going to transition over into another energetic form.

If you do it right, an orgasmic hiccup and a surge of intense bliss arises. After this, exhale slowly through the mouth and repeat twice more, but only inhale once between sets or youll lose the effect.

This opens the deepest part of the emotions, so be prepared and do not do this more than twice a month……carefully.

See if you can break the barrier.

1. Natural breath: How we breathe all the time without thinking.
2. Cleansing Breath: Inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth.
3. Tonic breath: Inhaling through the mouth and exhaling through the nose.
4. Alternate breath: Inhaling through one nostril and exhaling through the other.
5. Natural deep breath: When we stretch our arms wide open and take a deep breath.
6. Long breath or abdominal post birth breath OR One Breath OR Buddha Breath: is a form of abdominal breathing. When inhaling the lower abdomen expands because of the air coming in, during exhalation the lower abdomen contracts.
7. Pre-Birth OR prenatal breath OR Taoist breath OR Reverse Breathing: Contraction of abdomen upon inhalation and the expansion of it during expiration.
8. TORTOISE BREATH: “Even the pre-birth breathing alone will not enable you to reach the ultimate breathing stage. Forgetting the pre-birth mehod after its mastery over many years leads you to the tortoise breath.”

According to Daoist theory, pre-birth breathing imitates the general breathing pattern of the fetus in its mother’s womb. Through the umbilical cord the fetus receives oxygen and food, and eliminates carbon dioxide and other waste products. When the umbilical cord is cut, pre-birth breathing ceases and post-birth breathing from the mouth and nose begins. Pre-birth breathing is most commonly understood as the contraction of the abdomen upon inhalation and the expansion of it during expiration. Hence, this breathing patter is somethings called “reverse breathing”

1. Spontanious Nei gong
2. Red Phoenix

And additional: Golden flower meditation, Mao Shan I-Jong or Ijong, with/without Five Elements

There used to be part of the same school of Tao, but schools and practices  split at some point. Sifu Max has put both of them back in one system. We can practice either one, or in combination.

Details of the Kunlun technique of spontanious nei gung meditation are available in the kunlun book by Max.

I can not write about the detail instructions on red phoenix technique or how to do Red Phoenix. But it is taught at the Kunlun seminars. It is an excellent technique that can be done any where, any time. Even while you are waking, waiting, taking a train, waiting for a train…

Similar to Tibetan tradition where in one of the higher stages high lamas achieve Rainbow body, In Taoist tradition the similar is termed as Gold Dragon Body. In order to achieve the Gold dragon body, one needs to practice both Spontaneous Neigung and Red Phoenix.

They could also be spelled as
kunlun nei kung kunlun nei gong kunlun nei gung kunlun neigung kun lun meditation

If you are looking for how to perform red phoenix kunlun. I encourage you to attend one of Kunlun seminars. A list of Kunlun facilitators can be found on http://kunlunbliss.com

Participants can expect to learn:

• Kong Jing – a special form of mediation to allow one to be empty, receive and ground oneself.
• Maoshan 5 Elements Chi Gung – this breathing and standing Chi Gung will allow one to balance the five main organs of the body.
• Beginning level of Kunlun Spontaneous Nei Gung
Initiation Transmission – Kunlun instructors/facilitators transmit a portion of Kunlun magnetic energy to each person so that one can be activated and use their own energy from within. Kunlun is a living lineage carried from one master to next, each student becomes a part of the lineage after the seminar.

While practicing Kunlun expect the unexpected, but there are some physical signs of the energy awakening, they can range from shaking, orgasmic type bliss, heat rising from the belly to the top of the head, itchy crawly skin caused by enough Chi to break the resistance of the skin, speaking in a universal language or tongues, seeing balls of light, smelling fragrances, ability to heal others, seeing magnetic fields outside the body and seeing blocks inside the body to name just a few.
