voidisyinyang Posted May 9, 2009 probably full-lotus as that is also "5 points or centers facing up" -- the two centers of the feet, the two centers of the hands and the head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiritual_Aspirant Posted May 9, 2009 Is the 5 centres a standing or seated med or both? Â Â I don't know no technical details were given about the technique but it involves absorbing moon energy to energize the ida and pingala channels. It was just mentioned in passing when I read the book "9 Palaces Qi Gong". 9 Palaces is the sun qi gong of white cloud monastery. I do know that 9 Palaces qi gong is a standing and moving meditation.

Bum Grasshopper Posted May 9, 2009 I thought that the full moon gives you both yang from the heavens (moon and sun) and yin from reflected light off the earth. Correct me if I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spiritual_Aspirant Posted May 10, 2009 I thought that the full moon gives you both yang from the heavens (moon and sun) and yin from reflected light off the earth. Correct me if I'm wrong. Â Â Well, there's a concept of yang within yin and yin within yang, but as far as I know the moon is predominantly yin.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
