8.21  Heart and Lungs’ Point
E. Heart and Lungs’  Point
   The fifth  Upw ard Draw  (or Big Draw ) point  is the heart  and lungs
energizing  point,  located  betw een the fourth  and fifth ribs. Feel  the
crest  of the  scapulae  and follow  each  scapula  dow n to the  center
point  betw een them at the  spinal  cord,  opposite  the heart  center. Use y our palm s to cover  the area  between the scapulae  and the
spinal  cord. (Fig. 8.21)  Feel your energy  pass  to your partner  and
your partner’s  energ y pass to  you. Slightly contract  the front,  middle,
back,  left and  right  parts  of the anus,  and bring  the sexual  energ y to
the lungs  and heart. Be ver y careful  in pulling  the energ y to the
heart  and lungs  since  excess  energy  at these  points  can cause
pain in the  chest. The com pletion  of the Micr ocosmic Orbit  is very
helpful  in preve nting  such  congestion. The Healing  Sounds  of the
heart  and lungs  are also  helpful  in relieving  congestio n, as are
brushing -down with the palm s or stroking  or tapping  the chest. (See  the book  Taoist Ways to Transf orm Stress into Vitality for an
elaborati on of the Six Healing  Sounds). In addition  to chest pains the heart  center,  when closed,  leaves
us with a feeling  of ignorance  of our real relationship  to things. We
may feel sorr y for ourselves,  unloved,  and incapable  of love. We
often  feel under  attack. We can feel  over whelmed,  rushed,  cruel,
arroga nt and lonel y. Usuall y the worst feeling  is one  of un worthiness
or lack of deservin g. When that  heart  center  is open,  we feel
sunshine  from the inside. We have  a sense  of joy and love  that is
- 236  -Chapter  VIII
sometimes a floating  sensation. In all of  our meditations  it is
important  to fill our  hearts  with loving,  smiling energ y, because  when
we feel love, we are truly  related  to all things. There  is a sense  of
honor  and respect. When open  this point  will also help  to increase
circulation  and improve  respirati on, which will quickly  ener gize the
entire  body. It can help  to relieve  upper  back  pain,  shoulder:  neck
and arm tensions  and pains,  and provide  a way to recover  from
tiredness. Allow this energ y to circulate  throu gh your being  to create
the feeling  of gratitu de that will be the cataly st for all  your spiritual
work and enlight enment. F. C-7 Point
    The sixth energizing  point  is the  C-7 point,  the largest  protrusio n
of the  spinal  colum n located  at the  junction of  the shoulder  and the
base  of the  neck. This point  controls  all the tendo ns of the body . The Taoists regar d this as the  great  union  point  of the  Chi flo w
connecting  the hands,  head  and spine. Opening  and connecting
this point  is ver y important  to the practices  of Healing  Hand  Kung
Fu, Iron Shirt Chi  Kung, and Tai Chi  Chi Kung. (A description  of
these  practices  can be found  in the last chapter  of this  book  entitled
The Universal Tao System : Courses Given in Various Centers). Place your left hand  on C-7 and the right hand  on the sacru m. (Fig. 8.22)  Contract  and bring  the sexual  energ y up to  this point. Fig. 8.22  C-7 Point
    The C- 7 energ y point,  when it is closed,  stirs w ithin us the  feeling
of denial  of our  connecte dness,  as if we stand  as individuals  against
the rest of  the world. It also  creates  the feeling  of being  inappr opria te
- 237  -Dual Cultivation
and ill-fitting,  or not being  in the  right  place. It is demonstrated  in a
stubborn  view point, while at the  same tim e being  burde ned by our
inappro priateness. As the point  opens  up and radiates  the ener gy,
the experience  is as though  a mantle is being  drape d from our
necks down onto  our arms, giving  us the  abilit y to em brace  each
other  in our humanit y, opening  our view points and flexibility , our
approp riateness,  manifested  in the  feeling  of connected ness. As
the feeling  spreads  farther  dow n our arms to our  hands,  we become
mote a ware of the healing  abilit y in our  palm s.
Fig. 8.23  Neck Point
G. Neck  Point
    The seventh  energizing  point  is located  at the  middle of  the back
of the  neck,  between the third  and fourth  cervical  vertebr ae. Use
your left palm  to cover  this point  and the right  palm to cover  the
sacru m as  you slightl y contract  the front,  middle, and  back  parts  of
the anus. (Fig. 8.23)  (There  is no need  to contract  the left and  right
parts.) Bring  the energ y to the  neck  and feel the neck  energiz e.
The neck  is the busiest  traffic area in the  body. All the  controls  of
the body  including  all emotions, are  signaled  from  the brain  and
pass through  this “bottlen eck.”  When under  stress  and emotional
strain,  the neck begins  to accumulate and jam with tension. The neck  is the  passage way of ma ny meridians  chann eling  the
organs’  Chi energy  to and from  higher  centers. In the  middle of  the
neck runs the Govern or Channel,  while the bladder,  triple  warmer
and large  intestine  meridians  travel  along  the sizes of  the neck. Emotions,  gener ating  from the  organs  (anger  from the  liver fear
from the  kidney s and bladder,  grief  from  the lungs  and large  intestine. - 238  -Chapter  VIII
hastiness  from  the heart  and the small intestine,  and worry from
the spleen,  stom ach, and pancreas ) “jam” in the  neck causing  the
neck to be  stiff. Oftentimes wh en your partner  has lost too  much sexual  energ y,
it will result  in an  increase  in tension,  creating  a great er emotional
“jamming” in the  neck. As a result  your partner  will be easil y
angere d, fearful,  and frustrate d. The neck point  is a marvelous  place
to release  the tensions  arid emotions  of your partner. Hold this
point  gently . There  is no  need  to contract  the anus,  just hold your partner
and mentally  guide  the sexual  healing  energ y to me lt the  tensions
and emotions  away. You can lightly massage  to help release  the
tension. This w ill increase  your partn er’s relaxation  tremendously
Fig. 8.24 Base of  the Skull  (Jade Pillow)  Energizing  Point
H. Jade Pillow  Energizing  Point
   The eighth  energizing  point,  the Jade  Pillow, is located  between
C-1 and  the base  of the skull (the  occipital  bone)  in a little hollo w
betw een two muscle bands  and outsize  of the spinal  colu mn. Embrace y our partn er quietly  and place  your left palm  over  the
base  of the  skull on  the hollo w place,  with the right  palm  over  his
sacru m. (Fig. 8-24)  Feel  the heat  that is gener ated as the sexual
healing  ener gy passes  to your partner  while your partn er’s energy
passes  to you. There  is no  need  to contract  the anus. Use your
concentrati on to direct  your energ y to melt tension  and clear  the
mind. - 239  -Dual Cultivation
   Radiating  the ener gy in the Jade  Pillow  will impart to  you a sense
of being  able  to dra w inspiration  in. This point  is connecte d very
much wi th our breat hing,  as w ell as a part  of the brain  that is located
there. When it is blocked,  the sensation  is of  a burde n that is
suffocating  you. As you guide  sexual  energ y to this point,  and the
energy  accu mulates  there,  you can work out this block. The brain
revitalizes,  the mind clears,  consciousn ess increases,  and memory
improves. There is a limitless feeling  as of  a sk y. As it opens,
breathin g becomes easier  and an inspiratio nal sensatio n occurs,
as if som ething  beyond our imagination  can enter  and operat e
through  us. Rest  your attention  at this  point,  quieting  the mi nd, and
look into  the spaciousness  and luminosit y. This point  also  influences
the eyes, ears,  nose  and mouth. I. Crown Energizing Point
    The ninth  point,  at the  top of the  head  above  the mid-brain,  is
called  the crow n point  (the Pai-Hui, or  GO- 20), and is the  seat of
the pineal  body . Its functions  are related  to sensitivit y and the sexual
cycle. The cro wn point  gover ns hearin g, body rhythms, equilibrium,
the perception  of light throug h the eyes and skin, and  is the superio r
counter  support  of the brain  and spinal  cord. In Chinese  it is called
the “Hundred  Point Joint:”. When the  crow n energy  point  is closed,  we do not feel  in charge
of our  lives,  but rather  out of control  and reckless. We are filled
with delusions  and pride,  and experienc e erratic  mood s wings and
headach es. When the  crow n is open,  we are guided  by higher
forces. We radiate  happiness,  blossom ing like a  flower giving off a
fragranc e. We rule over our own expressio n and experienc e.
    In the latter  part of the  higher  Taoist practice,  this point  serves
as a compass directing  a person’s  soul and spirit to  the place  where
he or she  is eventuall y supposed  to go. Once  this point  is full y
develope d, you will see a  clear  creative  light,  giving  direction  and
sustenance  to your spirit bod y. Once  you reach  this higher  level  of sexual  healing  energy , very
slightly  pull up the front,  middle and  back  of the anus  and the Chi
Muscle,  and bring  the Chi to  the top of  the head. (Fig. 8-25) Assist
this mo vement by looking  up with your eyes while concent rating on
the highest  point. In the beginning  you might feel pressu re or a
sense  of expansio n in the mi ddle of the  head. This is an  indication
of energ y reaching  this point. Use yo ur mind, y our eyes and all the
- 240  -Chapter  VIII
senses  to mo ve the ener gy in a clockw ise motion, circulating  it
nine:  eighteen,  twenty-four, or thirty-six times, dependi ng upon  how
you feel. Fig. 8.25 Crown  Energizing  Point
     Again  it is im portant  to emphasize  the opening  of the  Microc osmic
Orbit. With the  Orbit open,  you will easil y be able  to guide  the sexual
healing  ener gy up to the  top of the head,  and when energ y has
filled this  point,  it will overflo w, pouring  down to the  middle of the
eyebrows where the pituitar y gland  is housed. The Taoists rega rd
this point  as the “Original  Cavit y of the Spirit.”  The crow n energizing
point  houses  the master endocrine  control  gland,  the pineal  gland,
regulatin g growth, gonadal,  adrenal  and thyroid functions. J. Third  Eye Point
     The third  eye point,  located  betw een the eyes in the  center  of
the forehea d, radiates  like sunshine,  or the opening  of a flo wer as
the sexual ener gy flows down from the top  of the head  to this area. When the foreh ead is open  there  is a sense  of purpose,  a direct
and simple know ledge, an intuitive wisdom and  sense  of direction
in life. A sense  of your own personal  being  emerges. As the  positive
energy  accu mulates  there  and ripens,  you smell fragra nces,  taste
the nectar  trickling  down onto  the tongue,  or see a  beautiful,  blue
pearl. When closed,  the feeling  is of  the mind wa ndering and
indecisive,  fickle, and  often  agitated. An internal  dialogue  of self-
criticis m and invalidation  continu es endlessl y. When this  center  is
closed,  you feel y ou have  no direct  knowledge or perception . - 241  -Dual Cultivation
K. Throat Center
   From the third  eye point,  the energ y will continue  to flow down to
the nasal  passages,  the palate,  the tongue,  the throat  center  .The
throat  center  is located  at the notch  at the  base  of the throat  and
top of the  sternum. It is a  place  of com munication  and change. When open,  our expressions  flow, both  verbal  and non- verbal. This
point  has the po wer of the  word: what you say and what you ask for
come about. Openness  in that center  promotes speech,  so that
the sentences  we use are  the ones  we live out. An open  throat
center  also  brings  about  lucidity  in drea ms, the expressio ns between
our souls and our other  selves. When the  center  is closed,  you
can feel choked  up, as wi th guilt,  and you may have  difficulty
swallowing, as if there  were a lum p in the  throat. You may  feel an
unwillingn ess to change. Feel  the energy  radiat e into the throat,  as
though  you are sunbat hing there. Let go of all things  and all
memories of that  closed  feeling. Feel  the throat  open  and blosso m
with the pow er of speech. Be a ware of the  lucidity  in your dreams
and a flexibilit y manifested  in your abilit y to express  yourself . The energ y continues  to flo w down to the heart  center  again,  at
the middle of the  breast,  one inch  from the  lower end of the  sternum. This heart  center  point  is a ver y important  point  in the  woman’s
practice. It is the seat  of energy  transfo rmation,  and thus  the seat
of healing  and loving  energ y in a w oman. From the  heart  point  the
energy  will flow down to the solar  plexus,  and then  dow n to the
navel. L. Navel Center
    As the  navel  center  opens,  we feel a sense  of balance,
equanimity  and centere dness,  of allo wing ourselves  to be as  we
are, and ever ything else  to be  as it is, which takes  no effort. The
experience  is one  of mindfulness. An open  navel  center  allow s us
to let  things  be, put a  value  on every thing, and feel true abunda nce. When it is closed,  there  is a lack of balance  and centerin g. The
navel  center  is a storage  place for excess  energ y, and so is a
storage  place  for the  energ y of our work. As w e continu e to bring
the energy  to the navel  center  the navel  naturall y centers  and opens. As yo u feel the energ y accu mulating  in the  navel,  you will find it to
be the place  of value,  the original  connectio n you had with your
mother  and the place  of nourishment  as y ou cam e into  this w orld. Here  we feel the natural  abun danc e of all things. - 242  -Chapter VIII
   Try  to practice  holding  one point  at a tim e, and  move up one  by
one in sequenc e. Do not practice  all the  points  in one  session in
the beginning. Once  you feel that  all your partner’s  channels  are
open,  you can choose  the appro priste  points  to use  at that time. Judge  by the needs  of your partn er. Discuss the  hand  positions
ahead  of tim e with your partne r describin g what you would like to
acco mplish, and share  the entire  book  with him so that he can
understa nd the practice. Your mutual unders tanding and working
together  on the practices  described  here  will result  in harmony. Once  you have  completely  open ed your partner’s  back chann el
with the help  of your hands,  you can use  the hands  to help  speed
up the flo w of sexual  energ y.
C. Ste p-By-Ste p Practi ce to Balance  and H armonize  the Total
System
    While your sexual orga ns are in contact  with your partne r, you
are joining  with his or her  front  channel,  the Function al Channel. The energ y flowing through  each  one’s. Functional  Channel  is more
easily  joined when there  is sexual  arousal. At this  time a lot of energ y
is generat ed from the  organs  and glands,  and it all flo ws dow n to
the sexual regio n. Rem ember that if yo u do not redirect  it up,  the
most vital force  that your body creates  will be lost to the  universe,
with no benefit  to you at all unless  your intentio n is to  bear  a child. 1. Guide the  Aroused S exual Energy up the Spine. Begin  by guiding  the aroused  sexual  healing  energ y up the spinal
column to  the points  listed  belo w one at a tim e with the assistance
of the  hands. As you become mo re advanced  in the  practice,  you
can put y our hands  on different  points,  thereby  causing  the energy
to jump faster. A. Kidneys’  Point
   Start  with forepla y to bring  your partner  or your partner  to bring
you, up to  the boiling  point. Rem ember that if the orga ns, glands
and sexual  energy  are not read y when you enga ge in love making,
there  will be less energ y to exchang e. This can  be harmful to  the
organs,  glands,  and sex orga ns. When you feel the sexual  healing
energy  is activated,  embrace  each  other  for a while. Then both  of
you can begin  to use  your hands  simultaneousl y or one  can
- 243  -Dual Cultivation
singularly  touch  the other  if yo u both  choose. Put your right  hand
on the sacrum wi th the middle finger  touching  the tip of the  cocc yx
and the palm covering  the sacrum, especially  the opening  of the
sacral  hiatus. (Fig. 8.26)  Feel  the heat being  absorb ed into the
spinal  cord  as it helps  to activate  the Sacral Pump which moves
the energy  upward. Place y our left hand  on the Door  of Life, opposit e
the navel  and betw een Lumbar 2 and  Lum bar 3. Feel  the sexual
energy  moving upw ard from the  sexual regio n, past  the sacru m
and up to the  kidney s’ point. Use the  anus  muscle to  hold  and
guide  the energ y up, if necessary  At this  time you can inhale  to
pack and wrap the sexual  healing  energy , bathing  the kidne ys with
healing,  creative  and genera tive ener gy. Fig. 8.26 Move the Energy to  the Kidneys Point. B. T-11 Point
    When you feel the  sexual  energ y level is lo w, your partner  or
you should  resu me a three  shallow -one deep,  a six shallo w-one
deep,  or a nine  shallo w-one deep  series  of penet rations. Taoist
Maste rs discovere d the G-Spot  many thousan ds of years ago. In
all their  manuals  on sex they  always advised  shallow  thrusts
because  the glans,  or head,  of the  man’s penis  will stimulate the
glans,  or clitoris,  of the woman,  and fit right  behind  the pelvic bone
where the G-Spot  is. Build the  energ y to the  point  in which both  of
you can exchang e the energ y. Embrace quietl y for a while with the
right hand  still holding  the sacru m, and  move the  left hand  to the T-
11, the point  of the  adrenal  glands. (Fig. 8.27)  Hold this position
until both  of you feel the ener gy move. - 244  -Chapter  VIII
Fig. 8.27  Move the Energy  to the T-11 Point. C. Liver  and Sp leen Point
   Repeat  the above  step,  but this  time m ove the  left hand  to your
partner’s  liver and  the spleen  point,  belo w and betw een the
scapulae. (Fig. 8.28)
Fig. 8.28  Move the Energy  to the Liver and Spleen Point. Fig. 8.29  Move the Energy  to the Heart Point. - 245  -Dual Cultivation
D. Heart Point
   Repeat  step  (b) again. After both  of you have  built  up to  the
height  of sexual- healing  ener gy, embrace  again. The right  hand
remains at the  sacru m and  the left hand  moves to  the heart  point,
located  opposite  the heart  center  and betw een the fourth  and fifth
ribs. (Fig. 8.29)
Fig. 8.30  Move the Energy  to the C-7 Point. E. G-7 Point
   Build the  sexual  energ y to its highest  point  again  and embrace. Maint ain the position  of the  right  hand  and move the left  hand  to the
C-7 point  at the  base  of the  neck. (Fig. 8.30)  Feel  the sexual energy
being  drawn up, activated  toy your partn er’s palm s, the anus  Chi
Muscle,  and the eyes-mind concentrati on. Fig. 8.31 Move the Energy to  the Jade Pillo w Point. F. Jade Pillow  Point
  Build up  the sexual  energy  and embrace. The right  hand  remains
on the sacrum. The left  hand  is mo ved to the  base  of the  skull. - 246  -Chapter  VIII
(Fig. 8.31)  When you join this point  with the sacrum point,  you will
activate  the Sacral Pump and Cranial  Pump, and  so w ill greatly
feel the flo w of sexual  energ y. The consistent  increas e in the  activit y
of these  pumps is very  important  to your health,  and mental and
spiritual  practice. Fig. 8.32  Move the Energy  to the Crown Point. G. Crown  Point
    Build up  to highest  point  of sexual energy  arousal  and embrace,
with the right  hand  remaining  on the  sacrum. Move  the left hand  to
the top of  the crow n. (Fig. 8.32)  If the channels  are well open,  you
will grad ually feel energ y flow like a  fountain  of youth up to the head,
and then  a sprinkling  of the  energ y in the  brain. Once it fills the
brain,  the energ y will shower dow n the front  channel  to the tongue,
the heart,  and then  down to the navel. H. Exchange  the energy using  the eyes, nose and t ongue. No w look  into your partner’s  eyes. At this point  there  is a lot of
energy  in the  eyes that can be exchange d. You can feel  that you
are looking  into your partne r’s soul. His and  your eyes, like m agnets,
draw and pull from each  other:  At this  moment the ener gy exchang e
through  the eyes and tongue  is ver y deep. Rub  your nose  against  your partn er’s nose. Feel  a spark  of
energy  jump from one  to the  other. Move  your tongue  into your partner’s  mouth. Touch  his tongu e
and massage  it with your tongue. Feel  the sparkling  energy  pass
from your tongue  to your partner’s  tongue. The fragranc e of the
energy  flowing from m outh to  mouth, from palate  to palate,  is be yond
words. - 247  -Dual Cultivation
   The e yes, nose  and tongue  of each  of you help  to jo in and
encoura ge the flo w of sexual  energ y dow n the front  channels. If
you and your partner  now  have  a lot of  saliva, be sure  that you both
are in good  health  before  swallowing it. Fig. 8.33 Body  Clock Ch art
I. Certain times of the day heighten  the Healing effect. (Fig. 8.33)
   The Taoists believe  that the orga ns of the bod y and their
correspo nding meridians  are activated  and stimulated  during  certain
times of the  day. Since good  health  exists w hen there  is a com plete
- 248  -Chapter VIII
balance  of energ y within the organs  and meridians  of the  body,
sexual  activity  being  stim ulating  and energizi ng when prop erly done,
can further  deplet e a body  that is suffering  from an ener gy imbalance
when practiced  at a low energy  time. Since  the sex  act leaves  a
person  open  and vulnerabl e to universal  ener gies,  it is wise to
choose  a time when the universal  energy  will be beneficial. The best  time for sex is in the  early morning  when your body is
well rested. A particula rly bad time for sex is in the late  evening,
especially  when you are tired  or under  emotional  stress,  because
the organs’  energ y is not  strong  enou gh to handle  the sexual  energ y. A nap  or rest  befor ehand is recom mended  if this is the onl y time
convenient  for you. The hand  positions  described  in this  chapter  are used  in mo st
of the  positions  that we described  previously  in this chapter:  These
positions  can help  you and your partner  stimulate each  other  in
one particular  area  of the sexual orga ns to initiate  a greate r reflex
of the  organs. But the  most important  part of the practice  is to  open
the channels  so that the sexual  energ y can abunda ntly flow directl y
to the  organs  and glands  to stimulate them  as we ll. Once  you
master the  openin g of the channels,  you can direct  the sexual energy
more w ith your mind and  less w ith your hands,  or without using  the
hands  entirel y. Try  to practice  one position  at a tim e to make sure  you both feel
the opening  of the  channels. If yo u are quite  sure  you are open,
make sure  that your partne r is also  open. If you cannot  open  your
partner’s  channel,  you can send  som e mo re of your sexual  energ y
to him , or if yo u cannot  open  your channel,  your partner  can send
his sexual  energ y to you. When a w oman  sends  her sexual  energy
at this  time, as w ell as during  the time of exchangi ng energy  she
enhances  the love making  and helps  her partner  by squeezi ng his
penis  tightly . First she  must be  sure  that her partne r is in a  safe
stage  of arous al, or he may ejaculate. Squeeze  and hold  for a while,
then release. (Fig. 8.34)
    Exhale  and mentally  send  the sexual  energ y to the  point  where
your partner  needs  help,  covering  it with your palms. W ith practice
you will feel your energ y pass more easil y through  your hands  to
reach  the point  that you intended. You will sense  the energ y, even
taste  it. - 249  -Dual Cultivation
Fig. 8.34 To help the man delay or  stop ejaculation,  the woman grips
        tightly  with  her vagina the head and sh aft of the penis. D. Valley Orgasm
    A Valley  Orgasm is the  means to  attaining  more pleasure,  more
healing  ener gy, and more energy  to transform into  a higher  spiritual
energy . A Valle y Orgas m in a ma n occurs  when he is 99  percent  of
the way to ejaculation. At this  point  he pulls  out of the  vagina  and,
practices  the Big Dra w to mi lk his prostate  gland  of semen, and
rather  than  release  it outw ardly, send  it in an in ward and upw ard
direction  where the energy  will be transformed. He relaxes,  allowing
the sexual orga ns to settle down to approximately  a 60 percent
arousal,  and then  he begins  again  by practicing  sets  of nine  shallo w-
one deep  penet rations to bring  him again  99 percent  of the  way to
ejaculation. Again he  does  the Big Dra w, the exchange,  and then
relaxes,  setting  down a bit and  then  com ing back up  again. Each
time he dra ws back  and sends  the energ y upw ard, he doubles  and
triples  his sexual  energ y. He can  continue  to mu ltiply it in this wa y
and draw the energy  to higher  centers  as long  as he does  not let
the sexual ener gy escape. Sexual energ y is the  one energ y that
can be mu ltiplied  without end and can continue  increasing. Each
time the orgasmic feeling  will com e up higher  than  the last tim e:
- 250  -Chapter  VIII
each  time it is brought  throug h the Microc osmic Orbit to  all the
organs  and glands. This kind of  higher  center  organs’  and glands’
orgasm is very  differe nt from  the lo wer orgasm w hich is confined
to the  genitals,  very brief  and leads  to vital energ y loss. Do not  confuse  the orgas m with ejaculation:  they  are two different
things. An orgasm can  last as long as yo u want, and can travel  as
high as y ou want. Once the ma n has ejaculated,  however the
orgasm is gone. The mo st pleasur able time is the peak  of the
orgasm right  before  ejaculation. Many peopl e want to go  beyond
that point,  how ever and if they  have  not been  trained  to control  it,
the point  beyond ejaculation  will be the end of the  orgasm, and
thus the end  of the  buildup  of sexual  energy  at that  time. The Valle y Orgas m in women  is m ore intense  than  in me n.
Women can achieve  almost as  high  an orgasm as  they  desire,
and can cultivate  their  orgasm higher  and higher . In an earlier
chapter  we stated  that women  do not lose  much energy  in nor mal
sex, and  that most of their energy  is lost  during  menstruation. Even
though  women  can have  an ejaculation  during  sexual  intercours e
as me n do,  they lose  only  fluid  and not an egg. Men  during
ejaculation  lose about  200 million sper m. W omen can arrive  99
percent  of the  way to the point  of orgasm, perform the  Orgasmic
Draw  to bring  the orgasm higher  in the Microcosmic Orbit,  exchange
energy  with the organs,  rest,  and begin  again  to achieve  a higher
orgasm. Each tim e the  woma n holds  back,  the sexual  energy
doubles,  triples and keeps  on gro wing as long  as she holds back,
drawing the energ y upw ard and inward. Com pared  with men, w omen  have  a much easier  time learnin g
the sexual dra w exercise,  since w omen  do not  have  to control
ejaculation. Also, the emotional  hookup  that ties  men to their
ejaculations  is not true  for w omen  and their  periods. The notion  of
reducing  menstrual  tension  does  not threat en most women’s  view
of their  femininity. 1. Increasing  Sexual Energy through  Several Upward Draws
   As we  have  describe d, in a Valley  Orgasm we  use several
upward draws to bring  the energ y inward and upw ard. It see ms
that the more that  is dra wn up, the more ener gy is produc ed again
in inexhaustibl e amounts,  provide d the energ y is not  released
outw ard. This dra wing up or holding  back  consists of  one round  of
both partne rs appro achin g 99 percent  of orgasm, dra wing the sexual
- 251  -Dual Cultivation
energy  up, and  controllin g the sexual  organs  to retur n them  to 60
percent  orgas m. Each tim e you perform the  upw ard draw you will
increase  intern al energ y significantly  and it will beco me more and
more internal. Instead  of losing  all that  energ y as in  ordinar y sex,
and feeling  depress ed and exhausted  after wards, after  an upw ard
draw you will have  more energy  than  before  and feel refres hed and
filled w ith healing  energ y. In  some cases  people  have  so much tension  and ange r that
when they  allow  their  sexual  energ y to release  outw ard, they feel
they have  released  the tension  too. How ever in actualit y the tension
is building  up again  and now they have  no other  way to handle  it. The only  way to rid  them selves  of it is to  dump out  their  life-force,
mixing their  sexual energy  with anger  and other  negative  emotions. The ancient  Taoist Syst em described  the benefits  of these
methods  in detail  as follo ws:
A. First Upward Draw
   After  you or your partn er have  reached  the 99  percent  of orgas m
point  and have  first used  the Orgasmic or  Big Draw  to draw the
sexual  orgas m ener gy upward, this sexual  energ y will rise to
increase  the energ y of the entire  body . B. Second Upward Draw
   The second  upw ard draw will strengthe n the senses  and
rejuvenat e the entire  body. C. Third  Upward Draw
    With the third  upward draw the body  starts to im prove  the
immune system to resist  disease,  illness,  flus and  colds. Man y of
my students  have  used  this s ystem to  help  them overcome a  cold
or the flu. D. Fourth  Upward Draw
   The fourth  upw ard draw will help  to stabilize  and balanc e the
internal  orga ns. Many people  are born  with misplaced  or
unstabilized  organs. One perso n’s ears  are lower while anoth er’s
are higher  or of a differen t shape. The same thing  holds  true for
internal  anatom y as for external  anatom y. In some the  kidney s may
be too far  back,  or too far for ward. The stomach m ay be in a dropp ed
- 252  -Chapter VIII
position,  the pancre as too high,  or the lungs  too high,  too lo w, too
big, or too  small. These unstabilize d organs  can cause  all kinds  of
physical problems for  us. Chronic  problems, unbekno wnst to the
afflicted  individual,  could  be caused  by a mi slocation  of his or  her
organs. A drop ped stomach or  uterus,  for example, can  be improved
by the power of sexual  energy . Once  you can increase  the internal
Chi pressur e, it will start  to stabilize  the organs. E. Fifth Upward Draw
   The fifth upward draw improves  blood  vessel  problems or  high
blood  pressur e, and,  in an anemia’s case,  increases  blood
productio n.
F. Sixth Upward Draw
   The sixth up ward draw can help  to strength en lower back
problems. G. Seventh Upward Draw
   The seventh  upward draw strength ens the extremities, bones
and bone  marrow. H. Eighth  Upward Draw
   The eighth  upward draw can help  to strength en the spleen  and
the body ’s aura. This wi ll help to protect  the perso n from  bad
emotions  being  thrust  upon  him or her externall y.
I. Ninth  Upward Draw
    The ninth  upward draw will help  to build  and strengt hen the
spiritualized  body  and serves  as spiritual  food. J. Tenth  Upward Draw
   The tenth  upward draw is a com pletel y spiritualized  or ps ychic
state,  not limited by time and  space. - 253  -Dual Cultivation
2. Dual Cultivati on of the Valley Orgasm
A. So lo Practice  as Preparation
   Initiall y the Orgasmic Draw  is ph ysically  demanding. However
with solo  practice  the orgasm is m oved mo re smoothly  from  the
genital  area  up to  the brain  by intern al control  and eventually  is
directed  solely  by the mi nd. It is important  to do a lot of  solo practice
before  attempting  this w ith a partne r mainly to avoid
discourag ement. According  to Shere  Hite,  author  of The Hite Report,
most women  who masturbat e achieve  orgas m within a few minutes. However with a partner  a woman  can prolon g the arousal  period
and often  become distinctly  more arouse d. The precision  and timing
of the  Orgasmic and  Big Draw  com e with practice. With a
cooperativ e partne r there  is ye t anoth er world to experience . B. Exchanging Energy
   When you approach  orgasm and  do the Orgas mic Dra w, the
aroused  ovary  energ y goes  up to the  brain. As y ou pump it up,  this
cool ener gy accumulates in  the head. If you have  practiced  the
Microcosmic Orbit  you know  that the  tongu e acts  as a s witch in
your own body, uniting  the two acupunct ure meridians  that make
up the Orbit. The genitals  also are  a switch, and thus,  no matter
what your position,  energ y that has been  built up  can now  be
funneled  into your partner’s  Microcosmic Orbit  and vice versa. The energ y can travel  in a variety  of routes. One route  can be
from your tongue  to your partner’s  tongue,  down your partner’s
Functional  Channel  to the navel,  then  down to his  genitals,  switching
over to your genitals,  up your spine  and round  and round. It can
circulate  throug h both  of your Microc osmic Orbits sim ultaneousl y,
or you both  might experience  the energy  outside  of your bodies,
feeling  like a  cocoon  aroun d you both,  or a prese nce above  your
heads,  etc. Since a  woman’s  aroused  energ y is not  as hot  as a
man’s, yo ur partne r might perceive  the cool energy  from  you, or
you may notice  warm ener gy from  him enterin g your body. Each woman’s  perceptio n can be different. Some m ight feel
cold ener gy, like a draft,  traveling  throug h her head. Some m ight
feel like permitting  the pulsation  to go out, and then  pulling  it in and
drawing it up. - 254  -Chapter  VIII
C. Sexual Va mpirism
    The issue  of one  partner  draining  the other’s  sexual/life- force
energy  is an old  one in Taoist circles. Legen d has it that  old men in
China  would seek out  young women  who did not have  any children
wome n who, in the  old man’s fra me of  referenc e, had a maximum
of Yin ener gy. Then,  without letting  the woman  know what they were
doing,  they would do the Big Draw  while their  penis was in the
vagina,  and drain  out the  women’s  Yin energy  there by increasin g
their own ener gy at the woman’s  expense. A woman  who masters
this s ystem can  be more po werful than  a ma n. Woman can drain
a ma n’s energ y many times faster  than  man can drain  woman’s. There  are many stories  existing  about  people  who have  used  the
system in the  wrong way and with the wrong intention,  and who
have  beco me too powerful in an  evil w ay. Using the  system in a
selfish w ay tends  to lead  to an evil energ y, which will eventuall y
destroy  the practition er. How ever the same sexual  energy  prop erly
used  can help  you achieve  good  health  and higher  spiritual
attain ment. According  to the  Taoists, even  assum ing no evil intentions,  the
draining  of a partner’s  energy  can happe n uninten tionall y especially
if only  one partner  know s the practice. The safeguar d against  this
is the  circulation  of the energy  throu gh both  partners’  bodies. This
exchange  of energ y eliminates  the possibilit y of one partner  gaining
energy  while the other  one loses. 3. Transforming Sexual Energy  into Spiritual Love:
   Cultivating the Valley Orga sm
A. Yin  and Yang Exchange
    “Yang can function  only with the cooper ation  of Yin, Yin can grow
only in the presence  of Yang”. -Yellow Emperor’s  Female Consultant
on Se x. Our universe  changes  perpetuall y because  of the  eternal  flow
of Yin and Yang energi es. The very essence  of Yin-Yang exchang e
is the  cyclical  alternatio n of day and night. Due to  this alterna ting
energy  flow, or respiration  of the  heavens , living  things  can gro w.
Were there  only day and no night,  all wo uld be burnt:  or if there
were only  night  and no da y, nothing  would have  strength  to gro w.
As living things,  humans are  also  subject to the  law of Yin and Yang
exchange. - 255  -Dual Cultivation
    The human being  can live happil y only  if he  or she is in harmony
with the principles  of life. If one violates  the la w of the  Yin and Yang
interchan ge, by forbiddin g the sexual  com munion of Yin and Yang
energy , energy  will not flow in the  body. The life-force  will slow ly
stagnate  and leak out. Life will beco me a long  slide  into depr ession,
interspers ed by spas ms of  enslave ment  to the passions. If y ou have  learne d to increase  your orgasm throu gh the
Orgas mic Up ward Draw, you are on the thresh old of a ne w
experience. That experie nce will alter  your percep tions  of your own
body  and mind. It w ill change  the way you see y our lover  and change
your understa nding of sex and  love. “Dra wing Nectar  up to  the Golden  Flower” is inco mplete  without
the exchange  of Yin and Yang energ y. (Fig. 8.35)  The Golden  Flower
is the  light at the crow n of the  head. The Orgas mic Dra w pulls up
and conserves  your nectar,  or sexual  essence. It is the exchang e
of your Ching  with your lover’s that transfo rms it, and  in the  process
gives an  experienc e of sex w hich is deeply  shared  as love. Your
orgasm be totall y unlike  that know n as a  simple, local, out ward-
pouring  and short  orgasm. As yo u make love over  a period  of tim e,
the pleasure  spreads,  filling  the Microcosmic Orbit  and the entire
body  Unlike the  ordina ry quick  orgasm, or peak  orgas m, whose
thrilling  moment is confined  primaril y to the genital  area,  this orgasm
will deliver  to you a ne w sense  of equilibrium that  will be stored  in
your body  long  after  your pleasur e has become a fleeting  memory
    Taoists advocat e the Valley  Orgasm as a  continual  rolling
expansion  of the  orgasm through out the whole body prolo nging
inward orgasm to a  half- hour one hour  two hours,  or longer  in a
gradual,  but ultimately  greatl y heightene d ecstas y. You can enjoy
this form  of sexual  love indefinit ely without paying for your pleasur e
with your life-force. During  the Valle y Orgas m, lovers  can relax  and have  all the  time
in the  world to share  their  tendern ess. There  is no  frenzied
explosion,  only wave after wave of higher  subtle  energies  bathing
the entw ined man and  woman. The Valley  Orgasm is not  a
technique,  but rather  a certain  kind  of experience  that the lovers
allow  to happen  to them selves,  encour aged by a tim e-tested
process. The Valle y Orgas m is ma de up of  all the  methods  you have
learned  thus  far: the Orgasmic Draw  for women,  the Big Draw  for
men, the  healing  positions,  the hand- energized  positions,  and
- 256  -Chapter VIII
Fig. 8.35 “Drawing  Nect ar Up to the Golden  Flower”
increasing  sexual energy  throu gh the upward draw. All this co mbines
to ma ke the  best  orgasm yo u can have. Yin and Yang exchange  is
one of the  major parts  of the  Valley  Orgasm. - 257  -Dual Cultivation
4. Valley Orgasm S tep-By-S tep
A. First Upward Draw
(1) Timing
     Bear  in mi nd that w hen the woman  is active, she  can control
the thrusting  of nine  shallo w-one deep  in order  to stim ulate the
glans  of the  clitoris  and the G-Spot,  with the shallow  thrusts  entering
only appr oximatel y two inches  into the vaginal  orifice,  there by
touching  the G- Spot. W hen you become sti mulated,  start  to am plify
the orgas m to a higher  more intense  sensation. Use the  Ovarian
Breathing  technique,  gently  open  and close  the vagina,  and slightl y
pull the  Chi M uscle  up to bring  the orgasm higher. When you reach
the point  of orgasm, rest  with the glans  of your partner’s  penis
touching  the G- Spot. If  it is in the  proper  spot,  it will feel as  though
fitting  in a slot. Rest here  and exchange  the sexual ener gy. G-Spot
Fig. 8.36  The woman holds tightly  the he ad of the penis in the ares of
  the G-Spot. Through  muscular  pres sure she ma ssages the penis. - 258  -Chapter VIII
    You must take care  that your partn er does  not reach  the point  of
no return. When he is near  of ejaculation,  pull his  penis  out to the
point  of your G-Spot w here the energy  can be exchanged . Rest at
this point. If you are good  at helping  your partne r to stop or control
the ejaculation. you can squeeze  the base,  not the head,  of the
glans  of the  penis,  and this will block  the urge  to ejaculate. (Fig. 8.36)  There  is dange r in bad timing; therefor e, if you do not master
this firm  gripping  technique , your partne r can lose  his sem en. This
means that  you must use  this grip  before  the urge  to ejaculate
occurs,  and not right  at the  moment of  ejaculation. A firm grip
accounts  for the success  of this  technique. Important  to developing
this grip  are the Orgasmic Draw  and the Egg and Vaginal  Weight
Lifting  exercises. Dela ying ejaculation  will also help  your partner  to
maintain his erection,  enabling  you both  to procee d to the next
exchange  faster  (Fig. 8.37)  For additional  infor mation  on delay ing
ejaculation  in m en, please  read the section  entitled  “The  Secrets
of Sem en Retention”  in the  book  Taoist Secrets  of Love: Cultivating
Male Se xual Energy. Fig. 8.37 The woman presse s on the penis to  prevent loss of  erection. - 259  -Dual Cultivation
Fig. 8.38  Exhale and let cool  woman’ s Yin energy  flow into your  partner. Relax and exchange  the ener gy. At this point,  it wo uld be good
for your partner  to practice  the hard  contractio ns of the Big Draw
first until  he is able  to mo ve his  Yang sexual ener gy upward and
gain control  of it. Once  he learns  and masters this,  you will not
have  to grip  the glans  of his penis  to assist hi m in this control. Feel
his hot,  male, Yang energ y begin  to pass to  you. This hot  energ y is
unlike  your energy . Once y ou feel it, inhale  and take  your turn to
practice  the Orgasm ic Draw , drawing your Yin sexual  energy  plus
his Y ang sexual  energy  up to  the higher  center. First  permit the
energy  to flo w into your Microc osmic Orbit. Then exhale,  and let
the cool, fema le Yin energ y flow into your partner  . (Fig. 8.38)  At this
point  your partne r can use the gentle ness  of Testicle Breathing  (as
- 260  -Chapter  VIII
described  later  in this  chapter)  to absorb  the cold Yin testicle ener gy
into his syst em. Rem ember you cannot  receive  his po wer without giving  freely
of your own. The exchang e heals  both  partn ers. Man needs  the
soft receptiv e energi es a woman  provides  to achieve  perfect
balance. Similarly, woman  needs  the expanding  male energies  to
attain  her own higher  harmony . This is natur e’s underl ying reason
for attraction  betw een the sexes. If the  man has  been  inactive,  he w ill now  perform the  thrusting. When he appr oach es the point  of orgas m, again  he should  withdraw
the penis  to the  area  of the G-Spot  and execute  the hard  contracti ons
of the  Big Dra w until he  gains  control  again,  exhaling  his excess
Yang energy  to you. You will follow  with the Orgasmic Draw  to
draw your energy  plus his upward, and send  him your excess  Yin
energy . (2) Embracing after Lovemaking
    When you cease  active lovemaking,  begin  your embrace  in any
pleasing  position. If the  man is heav y, the woman  is usuall y on top. If the  woma n is stronge r than  the ma n, she is usuall y on the botto m
so that  he can draw  the po wer more readil y. If the woman  is we ak,
she may be on top where she can dra w easil y. In any case,  make
sure it is a position  you can rest in for  a long  while. You should  keep
two extra  pillows hand y for this purpos e.
(3) Co ordinate your Breathing  with  your  Lover’s. Rem ember that “Chi” means “air”  or “breat h” in Chinese. Life is
breath. All living  activity  has the quality  of inhalatio n, exhalatio n, or
some Co mbination  of the two. This is wh y Chinese  philosop hy
classifies ever ything as Yin (exhalatio n) or Yang (inhalatio n) to a
greater  or lesser  degree. The act of love  is essentially  an act of
respiratio n. You breathe  your Ching  into your lover’s  body  and soul. You inhale  this life energ y by drawing it up  to the  head,  and exhale
it by venting  it to y our partn er. It follo ws that after  both  of you have  exchanged  the sexual ener gy
and embraced,  you will coordinat e your breat hing. In a chest  to
chest  position,  each  partne r places  an ear near  the other’s  nose. In this  position  you can easily  feel the other’s  breathi ng. In the  act
of love  the breathin g cycles  stimulate and harmonize all of life’s
- 261  -Dual Cultivation
processes. Physicall y breathin g togeth er unifies the two partners
and focuses  the rhythm of  all of  their  energies  so that  togethe r they
may contact  the source  of their  own life current. You should  become
so sensitive  to the presence  of your partne r’s breat hing that each
deep,  strong  breath  is as po werful as the  feeling  of your partner
pushing  his penis  into your vagina. To coordinat e your breat hing you will exhale  deepl y first and  feel
the Yin essence  of breath  penet rate into your partner . Wait for your
partner  to inhale  and absorb  this Yi n essence,  and then  exhale,
sending  the Yang essence  of his breat h to you. (Fig. 8-39)  Continu e
to coordin ate the breathing  until  both  of you feel in balance. Fig. 8.39  Absorb  Yin and Yang after Lovema king. (4) Inhale  Power up the Spine to the  Head:
Exhale out the G-Sp ot an d Penis
   After  you breat he together  for a tim e, gradu ally draw the pow er
up to the  crow n of the  head. Upon  inhalation  the ma n mentally
conceives  the Yin power moving from the  vagina  into the penis:  the
woma n uses  her mind to bring  the Yang power from the  penis  into
the G-Spot  and clitoris. Both  draw the pow er back  to the  perineum,
or Hui-Y in, and the cocc yx, or Chang- Chiang,  and bring  it up to  T-
11, C-7, C- 1, the  Jade  Pillow  and up to the  crow n, or Pai-Hui. From
there  the energ y travels  throug h the tongue  which, throu ghout the
entire  exercise,  is to  be raised  to the top  of the mouth. The goal  is
not to use  muscular  force,  as in  the Orgasmic Draw  or Big Dra w,
but simply to use the po wer of thought  to direct  the sexual  energ y. “Think” the ener gy up to the  crown point. Although  this instruction
- 262  -Chapter  VIII
seems inco mprehensi ble at first,  those  who have  begu n the
practice  of Sexual Kung  Fu will begin  to feel  the power and will
understa nd intuitively  what is me ant. The po wer will rise to the  head
eventuall y as your mind learns  how to direct  its ow n Chi ener gy to
connect  mind and  body. In the begin ning you can accelerat e the exchange  of Yin and
Yang pow er with the help  of the  hands’  energizing  points  and long,
deep,  muscular  contractio ns. When you feel the expansio n and
heat from the  glans  of your partner  and your vagina  fills w ith fluids,
inhale  slow ly and deepl y through  the nostrils. While you inhale,
contract  the vagina,  perineum, anus  and buttocks,  and as y ou
slightly  tighten  this contracti on, “think”  the energy  into the  clitoris
and G-Spot,  past  the Hui-Y in, into the Chang- Chiang  and up the
spine  to the  crown of the head. When yo u have  finished  the
inhalation,  hold  the breath  and contraction  for as long  as possible. Keep  draw ing the pow er up to the  head  until y ou can hold  the breath
no longer. When your partne r releases  his breath , consciousl y giving  you
his excess  hot, Yang ener gy, you must exhale  deepl y to besto w
the Yin energy  upon  him. Release  all tension  by relaxing  the head,
throat,  chest,  abdomen  and pelvis. Let the  relaxatio n spread  from
the top to  the botto m of the body  in a wave. When the  gentle  wave
reaches  the pelvic  region,  send  the Yin energy  into your partn er
through  the clitoris and  G-Spot. This contracti on and relaxation
should  be executed  gently , creating  a feeling  of pulsation  traveling
betw een your body  and his. Lovingl y offer  him the essential  energy . This surren der shall carr y
with it all the  emotions  of love and  devotion . This is not
senti mentalit y. It with inspire  him to surren der his nourishin g Yang
essence  and to totally  embrace  the Yin within Yang. This is the
nature  of a woman’s  fulfill ment. If you attempt to withhold your
energy , he w ill sense,  consciousl y or unconscio usly, your feeling
of separa teness, even  thoug h it may  be nothing  more than  an
obstruction  in the  energ y flow (usuall y in the heart). Allow him to
absorb  the Y in ener gy he needs  as you surrende r the excess. The
Yang energy  will flood  your entire  body  while the Yin floods  his. If y ou are just beginning  to practice,  you may be so overw helmed
by the sensation  of sexual  love  that it will seem i mpossible to
distinguish  his Yang energy  from  your Yin. Every thing may  seem
hot and explosive  and as thoug h com prised  of a single  energ y. As
- 263  -Dual Cultivation
you build up  your nervous  system to handl e higher  charges  of
energy  using the healing  and meditative  techniques,  the exchange
of Yin and Yang energ y will graduall y evolve  into a wareness. If you
build  energy  at successive  points  in the  body, great er powers of
exchange  will be available  to you and your partne r. Begin  by drawing
the pow er to the  Hui- Yin, or perineum, and  meditating  there. In this first up ward draw of the  Valle y Orgas m, if both  of you
have  an open  Microc osmic Orbit and  can circulate  the healing  and
energizing  sexual  energ y, the Orbits w ill fill wi th energ y, passing  it
through  all the  organs  and glands,  there by helping  to energiz e the
entire  body system. (5) Helping your partner  to Clear and Open  a Blockage. If y ou have  more pow er than  your partne r; help  him now to open
his centers  by directing  your pow er to his unopen ed centers. Both
must concentrat e on these  points. The Chi wi ll flow to w hatever
place  the mind focuses  on. Proceed  one point  at a tim e. Both  can
use the palm-energizing  method  and concentr ation  to help  open
the blockage. Rem ember that you cannot  open  all the  points  in one sexual
embrace. To open  one point  may  take  many exchang es of Yin and
Yang. If yo ur partne r ejaculates  there  will be no ener gy to exchange
since mo st of it will be lost  and little w ill remain  to be  transfer red. The resting  periods  are most im portant  since it is at  this tim e
that you can actuall y feel the energy  exchange. This is the  time
that you and your partner  can assist each  other  in clearing
blockages,  or you can help  him to open  his Microcosmic Orbit. (a)  Embrace  each  other  and then  put y our right hand  on your
partner’s  sacru m with the mi ddle finger  touching  the tip of  the coccyx
and the palm covering  the sacrum, especially  the opening  of the
hiatus. Feel  the heat  being  absor bed into the spinal  column and
helping  to activate  the Sacral  Pump, wh ich will be instru mental  in
moving the energ y upw ard. Place  your left palm  on his  Door  of
Life, opposite  the navel  and between Lumbar  2 and Lumbar  3. This
will help  your partner  move the  sexual energy  up to the kidne ys’
area. Your partne r does  the sam e to you. Once you become adept
at this  and feel the point  openi ng, move up to  the next point. (b)  Mov e the left hand  to the  T-11,  the adrenal  glands’  point,  with
your right  hand  remaining  on the  sacrum. (c)  Next mo ve the  left hand  up to the  liver  and spleen  point,
- 264  -Chapter VIII
below and betw een the scapulae,  maintaining  the right  hand  on the
sacru m.
   (d) The next  point  is the  heart  and lung  point,  located  between
the fourth  and fifth ribs and opposite  the heart  center. Again,  place
the left hand  on this  point,  leaving  the right  hand  on the sacrum. (e) Progress  upw ard throug h the remaining points:  the C-7, the
middle of  the back  of the neck, the  Jade  Pillow  near  the base  of the
skull, and  the top of the  crown. Mov e onto  each  point  graduall y to
make sure  it is open. For more details  on the hands’  energizi ng
points,  refer  to earlier  descriptions  in this chapte r.
   It is also  possible  to jump over  a point  if you feel you need  more
energy  at anothe r moment in time. If both  of you are fairly open,
you can both  simply place  your right  hands  on y our sacru m, and
your left hands  on the bases  of the skulls or  the tops of  the crow ns. (6) Return  to Lovem aking
    Decide  on who is to  be the active  one and retur n to love making. After anoth er round  of 81 shallow  and 9 deep  thrusts,  as y ou again
approac h orgasm or  your partner  ejaculation,  you will grad ually
feel the orgasm mo ve up  the spine  a little  bit. It can  spread  to the
entire  back,  or climb highe r than  the normal orgasms yo u have
had before. With the first Valle y Orgas m, feel  the orgasm cli mb,
approac hing the organs. Rest,  drop  down into the valley  again,  and
this tim e climb higher. Rest  again,  drop  dow n into the  next  valley
and climb even  higher. You will find that  each  valle y will have  a
different  orgas mic sensatio n, and you will not always return  to the
same old  valley . B. Second Upward Draw
   Resum e lovemaking, build up  the sexual  energ y to the  limit that
you can tolerat e. Rest  with the penis  glans  touching  the G-Spot. Permit yo ur partner  to perfo rm the Big Draw  a second  time to
prevent  ejaculation  in order  for the  orgasm to rise higher. When
your partner  releases  his Y ang energ y, you can perform the
Orgas mic Dra w, bringing  the energy  all the w ay up to  the head  and
the senses  by means of the  sacru m and  the spine. This up ward
draw can help  to strength en the senses. Using  gentle  contractio ns and pull- ups of the  Chi M uscle  is ver y
important  in directing  the energ y to the  senses. - 265  -Dual Cultivation
(1) Bring  the Sexual Energy to both Eyes. Pull up  the left and  right  perine um to bring  the sexual  energ y to
both eyes. When yo u feel either  hot or  cold  energy  at the  eyes,
move the m aroun d beginni ng with a clock wise direction  (Fig. 8.40( a))
and returnin g in a countercl ockwise direction  in order  to absor b the
energy  inward. (Fig. 8.40(b ))
(a) Use the mi nd and eyes to help circ ulate the ener gy nine ti mes,
(b) and co unterclockwise  nine tim es. Fig. 8.40 Using the Eye s to direct  the Sexual Energy. - 266  -Chapter VIII
(2) Bring  the Healing  Energy to both Ears. Bring  the healing  energ y to both ears  by pulling  up the left and
right sides of the  perineum and  moving your ears  around  if possible. If this is im possible,  mentally move the energy  aroun d the ears. (3) Bring  the Healing  Energy to the  Tongue. Contract  and pull up  the middle part  of the perineum, and  bring
the healing  energ y to the  tongu e. Mov e the tongue  around. (4) Bring  the Energy to the Nose. Contract  and pull up  the front  part of the perineum, and  bring  the
energy  to the  nose. When finished,  exchang e the energ y with your
partner:
C. Third  Upward Draw
   It requir es practice  for you to control  the sexual  energ y well
enough  to proce ed to the third  upw ard draw. Proceed  graduall y,
making certain  that as yo u continue  along  each  step,  you have  firm
control  over  your sexual  energ y first. Mean while, your partn er also
plays a big part since he  must control  his own sexual  energ y. (1) Bring  the Energy up the Spine to the  Crown. Resum e lovemaking, building  up the sexual ener gy to the limit
that you can take. Rest the penis  glans  at the G-Spot. Let your
partner  perform the  Big Dra w a third  time to preve nt ejaculation  so
that the Orgas m can  be raised  higher. When your partner  releases
his Y ang energ y you can perform the  Orgasmic Draw , bringin g the
energy  through  the sacru m all the  way up the spine  to the  crown. Remember that  the third  upward draw helps  to im prove  the immune
system’s resistance  to disease. The glands,  especially  the thymus
gland,  and the bone  marrow  play a substanti al role in a healthy
immune system. (2) Use your Eyes and Mind to move the Energy. When the  energy  reach es the brain,  turn your eyes, ears,  and
tongue  up to  the pineal  and pituitar y glands,  moving the  eyes and
using  the mind to mo ve the  gener ative  sexual ener gy for the
purpose  of revitalizing  the glands. - 267  -Dual Cultivation
Fig. 8.41 Blossoming  of the Thymus Gland
(3) Flow of Nectar  to the Thymus Gland. When the  pineal  and pituitar y glands  are filled with the sexual
energy , they  will produc e a certain  kind  of fluid  that we have  been
describing  as nectar. This nectar  is a mi xture  of sexual  energ y and
hormones  release d from  the glands. The proper ty of this ver y
special  kind of  hormone  has special  life-giving and healing  energ y. It will flow dow n through  the palate  to the throat  and thymus gland. - 268  -Chapter VIII
Creative  sexual  energ y has a  very  close relations hip with the thymus
gland,  with each  one enhancing  the other:  When there  is an
excessive  loss of sexual  or ovaries’  energ y the first to  6e affected
are the pineal,  pituitar y and thymus  glands. As the  fluid and  the ener gy flow into the thymus  gland,  you
graduall y will feel the gland  blossom like a Flo wer (Fig. 8.41)  this
will be manifested  in a sensation  of fullness  unde rneath the sternum. The thymus  gland  is regarde d by Taoists  as the  seat  of great er
enlightenment,  the seat  of love  and the seat  of life- force  or Chi,
energy . (4) The  Ribs absorb the  overflow of Nectar. Once  the nectar  has filled the  thymus gland,  the overflo w of ener gy,
will be absorb ed into the  ribs,  thereb y helping  to increase  bone
marrow  in which is produc ed white blood  cells, wh ich help  protect
the body  against  foreign  substances  and infection. The flat  chest
bones  are the major prod ucers  of w hite blood  cells. D. The Fourth  Upward Draw  will help to sta bilize  the internal
organs. Once  you can master the third upw ard draw, and have  filled  the
glands  with the energ y, you can begin  to bring  the sexual ener gy to
the organs. Again  you will employ  the assistance  of the Chi Muscle
in the  perineum region  as an  important  aid. You will use gentle
contractions  and slight  pull- ups to  help. By the time you have
reached  this level  of practice,  your body  has beco me more adept
at controllin g the sexual  energ y. You will now  bring  the sexual ener gy
directly  to the  organs  to transfo rm it into a higher  energy , other wise
the system can become allergic  to its ow n raw sexual  energ y. The
Taoist Maste rs discovere d that all the ener gizing  points  of the  spine
(the sacru m, T-11, C-7,  C-1,  Jade  Pillow, etc.) can  help  to transform
the raw sexual  energ y into what will be the primary  stage  of life-
force  energ y. (1) Bring  the Sexual Energy and the org asmic vibration to
the Ovaries  and Kidneys. (Fig. 8.42)
    Proceed  as before,  approac h the high  point  of orgasm, rest and
exchange  the energy . After  the exchange,  begin  to bring  the energ y
to the  ovaries  and then to the  kidney s. Using  gentle  contractio ns
- 269  -Dual Cultivation
Fig. 8.42  Bringin g Sexual Energy  to the Kidney s
and slight pull-ups,  left and right,  of the  Chi Muscle  as an aid, bring
the sexual ener gy and the vibration  of the  orgasm to the  ovaries. Start w ith the left side  first, and  wrap the energ y around  the left
ovary . Then bring  the vibration  of the orgas m and  the sexual  energ y
to wrap the left kidney. Gradually  you will feel the  energ y start  to
vitalize the  glands  and organs. This orgasmic vibration  felt at  the
ovary  and kidney  has a ver y different  sensation  than genital  orgasm. It can  feel gentle,  cool,  and clean,  filling y ou with the sensation al
fulfillment of  a true  orgasm. Each  organ  and gland  will create  a
different  kind of  orgasm fro m the  other  but all w ill be different  and
more fulfilling  than  genital  orgas m. Once y ou have  mastered  bringin g
the sexual ener gy and orgasmic vibration  to the  left ovary  and kidney ,
begin  to bring  the energy  to the  right  side. When you feel the fulfill ment
on the right  side,  bring  this fulfill ment to  both  sides  simultaneo usly. You will graduall y feel the kidne ys’ and ovaries’  region  as stronger
warmer and filled with life-force. You should  master each  organ,
then graduall y move on  to the  next  one,  continuing  one at a time. - 270  -Chapter  VIII
(2) Bring  the Sexual Energy and orgasmic vibrati on to the
Spleen and Liver. The next  organs  to bring  the ener gy to are the spleen  and liver:
Using gentle  contractions  again  and slightl y pulling  up the left and
right sides of the  Chi Muscle , bring  the sexual  energ y and its
orgasm ic vibratio n up to the  left ovary . Pause  for a while. Bring it up
to the  left kidney ; pause  and wrap the energ y and the orgas m arou nd
this kidne y, inhaling  and pulling  it up  to the  left side unde rneath the
rib cage  to the  spleen. Wrap the  sexual  energy  and the orgasmic
vibration  arou nd the spleen,  graduall y increasing  the orgasmic
sensation  which, again,  will feel very  different  from the  other  organs’
orgasm, and  more fulfilling  than  a genital  orgasm. Next, bring  the
energy  and orgas m to the right  side and the right  ovary , the right
kidney  and then  the liver. Giving a more intense  orgas m than  any
other  organ , the liver can gener ate the sensations  of warmth,
expansion,  energy , loveliness,  kindness,  and a very  euph oric and
satisfy ing kind of feeling. (3) Bring  the Orgas m and Sexual Energy to the  Lungs. Next bring  the orgas m and  the sexual  energ y to the  left lung,
first passing  through  the left ovar y, left kidney , spleen,  and finall y to
the lung. Once you master the left side,  begin  to bring  the energ y to
the right  side, and  then both  sides together. Each perso n can have
a differen t orgasmic feeling. E. The Fifth Upward Draw  increases the amount of blood
vessels and bl ood circulation. (1) Wra p and energize the cervix  with the sexual energy. After  the fifth exchange  of energy , pull the middle part  of the Chi
Muscle  at the  perineum up  toward the cervix,  which has a great
supply  of blood  flowing throu gh it. W hen strong,  it will help
tremendousl y in increasing  blood  circulation  as it is w rapped and
energize d with the orgasmic feeling. (2) Pull  the energy  up to the  aorta and vena cava. Next pull  up to the  aorta  and vena  cava, the  main arteri es and
veins leading  from  and to the heart,  respectivel y. When these  are
strong,  the flow of blood  will increase. Bringing  the orgasmic
- 271  -Dual Cultivation
vibration  and sexual ener gy to these  vessels w ill help  increase  the
flow of blood  through  the heart. In the later  practice  of the higher
levels of  the Universal  Tao, the  mind is used  to amplify  the orgas mic
vibrations  in these  vessels  to create  an even  great er flow of blood. (3) Pull  up the Sexual Energy to the  Heart. Next pull  up sexual ener gy to the heart,  the organ  responsible
for pumping  the blood. Wrap and  energize  the heart,  bring  the
orgasm ic vibratio n there,  and feel the heart  unfold  like a blossom ing
flower. Rem ember that in  attempting  to bring  the energy  to the  heart
you must be very cautious,  since  the heart  easil y becomes
congested  with excess  energy  causing  pain  and breathin g
difficulties. As previously  indicated,  if you experience  these
problems, practice  the Heart  Sound,  gently  tap the  chest  aroun d
the heart,  and brush  dow n your chest with your hands  to try to
force  the excess ener gy out of this  area. Then  do not practice  the
heart  upward draw for several  days. Instead,  retur n to the fourth
upward draw until  you master that. F. Sixth Upward Draw,  the plate au phase: circ ulate  your
microcos mic orbit into your  lover’s orbit. Dependin g upon  the level of  vital energ y and the spiritual
development  of the  individual  lovers,  a couple  over  time will
experience  new  “openings ” that occur  during  their  love making. This
means y ou will suddenly  find you have  made a  quantum leap  in
your feelings  and awareness. This usuall y happens  during  the
plateau  phase  of the  Yin Yang exchang e. The period  of lovemaking
when you are not thrustin g passionat ely is referr ed to as  the
“plateau ” phase,  as oppose d to the `peaks,”  the moments prior  to
the orgas m that  is averte d by doing  the Orgas mic Dra w and Big
Draw . The plateau  is the  physically passive  exchange  of ener gy
that occurs  betw een the peaks. The subtle  energi es within your resting  bodies  are not passive
at all,  but are  moving dynamicall y betw een partne rs, building  to a
new level  of sexual- electro magnetic  tension. It is an  internal  wave
of energ y building  up, sim ilar to  an ocean  wave that gathe rs
momentu m and crashes,  only to be  replaced  by the next  wave.

Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        8. 21  Heart and Lungs’ Point
E. Heart and Lungs’  Point
   The fifth  Upw ard Draw  (or Big Draw ) point  is the heart  and lungs
energizing  point,  located  betw een the fourth  and fifth ribs. Feel  the
crest  of the  scapulae  and follow  each  scapula  dow n to the  center
point  betw een them at the  spinal  cord,  opposite  the heart  center. Use y our palm s to cover  the area  between the scapulae  and the
spinal  cord. (Fig. 8. 21)  Feel your energy  pass  to your partner  and
your partner’s  energ y pass to  you. Slightly contract  the front,  middle,
back,  left and  right  parts  of the anus,  and bring  the sexual  energ y to
the lungs  and heart. Be ver y careful  in pulling  the energ y to the
heart  and lungs  since  excess  energy  at these  points  can cause
pain in the  chest. The com pletion  of the Micr ocosmic Orbit  is very
helpful  in preve nting  such  congestion. The Healing  Sounds  of the
heart  and lungs  are also  helpful  in relieving  congestio n, as are
brushing -down with the palm s or stroking  or tapping  the chest. (See  the book  Taoist Ways to Transf orm Stress into Vitality for an
elaborati on of the Six Healing  Sounds). In addition  to chest pains the heart  center,  when closed,  leaves
us with a feeling  of ignorance  of our real relationship  to things. We
may feel sorr y for ourselves,  unloved,  and incapable  of love. We
often  feel under  attack. We can feel  over whelmed,  rushed,  cruel,
arroga nt and lonel y. Usuall y the worst feeling  is one  of un worthiness
or lack of deservin g. When that  heart  center  is open,  we feel
sunshine  from the inside. We have  a sense  of joy and love  that is
- 236  -Chapter  VIII
sometimes a floating  sensation. In all of  our meditations  it is
important  to fill our  hearts  with loving,  smiling energ y, because  when
we feel love, we are truly  related  to all things. There  is a sense  of
honor  and respect. When open  this point  will also help  to increase
circulation  and improve  respirati on, which will quickly  ener gize the
entire  body. It can help  to relieve  upper  back  pain,  shoulder:  neck
and arm tensions  and pains,  and provide  a way to recover  from
tiredness. Allow this energ y to circulate  throu gh your being  to create
the feeling  of gratitu de that will be the cataly st for all  your spiritual
work and enlight enment. F. C-7 Point
    The sixth energizing  point  is the  C-7 point,  the largest  protrusio n
of the  spinal  colum n located  at the  junction of  the shoulder  and the
base  of the  neck. This point  controls  all the tendo ns of the body. The Taoists regar d this as the  great  union  point  of the  Chi flo w
connecting  the hands,  head  and spine. Opening  and connecting
this point  is ver y important  to the practices  of Healing  Hand  Kung
Fu, Iron Shirt Chi  Kung, and Tai Chi  Chi Kung. (A description  of
these  practices  can be found  in the last chapter  of this  book  entitled
The Universal Tao System : Courses Given in Various Centers). Place your left hand  on C-7 and the right hand  on the sacru m.
