Know the male,
yet keep to the female:
receive the world in your arms.
If you receive the world,
the Tao will never leave you
and you will be like a little child.

Under heaven some things lead, some follow,
some blow hot, some cold,
some are strong, some weak,
some are fulfilled, some fail.

So the wise soul keeps away
from the extremes, excess, extravagance.

Tao Te Ching, ch. 29, trans. Le Guin

"The Chinese see Qi everywhere. It's in the air they breathe. It is the force that drives the fusion of their blood. They take it from the food they eat. They add it to their cars to make them run. They burn it to eat and stay warm in their homes. They feel it in the winds of thought that blow through their minds. And, when they follow the deepest urges of their heart, they join their Qi with the Qi of their lovers. Qi gives them life, and when they lose their Qi, they die."

A great nation is like a great man:
When he makes a mistake, he realizes it.
Having realized it, he admits it.
Having admitted it, he corrects it.
He considers those who point out his faults
as his most benevolent teachers.
He thinks of his enemy
as the shadow that he himself casts.

If a nation is centered in the Tao,
if it nourishes its own people
and doesn't meddle in the affairs of others,
it will be a light to all nations in the world.

Tao Te Ching, ch. 61, trans. Mitchell

Welcome Qi Node Qiufen η§‹εˆ† Autumn Equinox

With the arrival of this, the Qi node of the midpoint of autumn in the Chinese calendar, Yin Qi is now established. The autumnal equinox is one of the four transitions that rectifies ithe course of the annual cycling of Qi. Yin and Yang are now equal, day and night are equal, and Yin is about to take charge. Storehouses are filling up and the work of harvest is nearly complete. Hibernating insects reinforce their shelters. The atmosphere rings with a pleasant stillness. During this node, Qi is best at 6:00pm. Practice Qigong indoors morning and evening in short sessions. Eat foods of Jing-Qi concentration; breakfast should be hearty and can be eaten a little later than in spring and summer seasons. It is beneficial to finish evening meals before 7:00pm and enjoy them in a quiet and undistracted setting, without being social or mentally engaged at every meal.

During this period the environment grows ever-more Yin, characterized by a coolness, dry air and wind. This is the phase of the metal element in cosmology at large, and with relevance to Chinese medicine, the Lung and Large Intestine are the Yin-Yang paired organ systems that are most sensitive to seasonal excesses of dryness and the contractile tendencies of fall. Maintaining suppleness with acupuncture and Chinese medicine is recommended.

Dao and Yin ... may mean physical exercises aiming at guarding and maintaining physical and mental health. By practising Dao Yin we can cultivate health and get rid of disease. Concepts of Dao Yin have been known and practised in China for over two thousand years....

"Dao Yin leads and advances Qi." Ling Shu, ch 42

Dao Yin (can be) described as movement. Movement is the very essence of life! Hao Tuo, one of the earliest Chinese doctors, recognised the importance of movement and said that:

"Flowing water does not stagnate,
A moving door hinge does not rust."

Dao Yin: the mystery of health - Hirsch Diamant, The Empty Vessel, Summer 2016
