It’s not just an ancient painting...
It’s Neijing Tu 內經圖 - Taoist Secret Map📜
This version was engraved at the White Cloud Temple🛕in Beijing, China (major Taoist Center). But originally it comes from Neidan — practice for longlivity that had been mentioned in Jin Dynasti (266-420)
Yet every detail in this image has a meaning — this is a map! Mountains, rivers, suns, and moons — represent transformation/movement of energy, various internal organs, “channels” (meridians), “fields” (dantian), and symbolic parts (energy centers, inner spirits/deities).
