When the cultivation of the Five Thunder Fa that did not return at night reached a crucial point, a psychic seal immediately appeared, and he saw a soft blue light shining on his body, to bless him with some help.

The practitioner's seal letter is also called the Dharma seal!

Seal, or "seal", "seal", "seal", represents a person's intelligence, power, status, retribution, prestige and achievements, so it is accepted as an important pattern element and parameter by numerologists.

The Dharma seal, also known as "Tianjian", "Tianxi", "Tianxin", "Shenyin", "Shenxin", "Xianjian", "Xianxin", "Human Emperor Seal", "Shengzhen Zhenxin", "Seal", "Fu Yin", "Jade Seal", etc., symbolizes the authority, honor, mana, supernatural power and energy of the superior rule-makers such as immortals, saints, truths, spirits, and kings in the three worlds of heaven, earth and man.

India, the letter held by the ruling also.

"Shangqing Lingbao Dafa" said: "The seal is also faithful." The user, the seal is the same, and the letter held by the ruler is also. ”

The seals and beliefs used by Daomen practitioners when performing Dharma are all called Dharma seals, which are either tangible or intangible.

The tangible seals are mostly engraved with peach wood, cinnabar stone, jade and other pictures and texts of the Daomen, or cast with copper, gold, silver and other metals.

The representative Dharma objects are: the Three Treasure Seals of the Taoist Master, the Lingbao Grand Master Seal, the Taishang Dao Ancestor Law Seal, the Shangqing Heavenly Privy Seal, the Dutian Great Dharma Seal, the Heaven and Earth Divine Seal, the Three Realms Mixed Yuan Chief Photography Ten Thousand Divine Seals, the Nine Dragons Divine Seal, the Heavenly Master Seal, the Tongling Seal, the Nine Heavens Xuannu Seal, the City God Seal, the Fantian Seal, etc.

The invisible seals are seals of gangbu, mantras, tricks, and fingerings. The two also have the function of driving the power of gods and ghosts, enhancing their own energy, and changing the trajectory of things, and are the treasures that have always been cherished by the Daomen, and are widely used in the upper table, the submission of seals, the calligraphy symbols, the casting of spells, the urn, the painting pattern, the making of seals and other fasting, rituals, and ritual activities.

"Lingbao Jade Jian" volume Yiyun: "The words of the Dharma are also right, and they are also evil, and they are also the ones who are righteous and courteous, and they are also guided by political punishment."

Therefore, the chapter is played, and the seal of heaven must be faked to show the letter. Each of them has a teacher, and if they want the gods of heaven and earth to know the law they have done, they will also receive it, which is the benefit of "the law is imprinted, and the evil will perish".

In ancient times, there were also "princes and princes said seals, and the princes said that the two thousand stones were sealed, and the rest were sealed, and the seals of this world were also." When the ancient times were prosperous, people and ghosts had their own place, and yin and yang were not mixed, so the use of the Tao was only seen in the cultivation of the Tao, so that it soared lightly.

In the Middle Ages, the slow truth is increasing, the right path is obscure, the evil and the false are crossed, and the top and bottom are repeated, so the law is out to seek its disadvantages, the table seal is to reach its heart, and the seal is paid to believe in the will.

Therefore, the meaning of the seal is close to the world, and it is also the way of fortune due to the time of profit and loss".

The Dharma seal is in line with the core concepts of Daomen, such as "Dao", "One", "Jing", "Qi", and "God", and has considerable sacredness, transcendence, and efficacy. The commentary said: "The sealer, but Yi Xiaoye, the sergeant takes the seal as the way, the Daotuo seal as the practice, and the seal is like the ear of the flint bead." ”

It can be seen that the Dharma seal is the embodiment of the Tao, and the use of the seal is the way of the Tao.

He didn't return at night to practice the Five Thunder Rectification, and he had the help of the Psychic Seal, but he also knew that the most important and difficult level in his cultivation life was how to behead three corpses.

Daomen believes that "life is a pity, death is terrible", has always attached great importance to the medical skills with the effect of helping the living, as an important way for Daomen to ask the immortals to cut off the three corpses, its process and content also reflect the inextricable connection with medicine and health preservation.

The three corpses are also called the three corpse gods or the three corpse insects, also called "three peng" or "three insects", specifically including the three insects of the upper corpse, the three insects of the middle corpse, and the three insects of the lower corpse, so they are called "three corpses and nine insects".

Among the three corpse insects, the upper corpse is called Qinggu, the middle corpse is called Baigu, and the lower corpse is called Xuegu, or the upper corpse is called Peng Ju, the middle corpse is called Peng Jiao, and the lower corpse is called Peng Jiao.

The nine insects refer to the worms, the worms, the white worms, the flesh worms, the lungs, the stomach worms, the mustaches, the red worms and the dung worms.

The three corpses are born in the twins of their parents, and they are born with the birth of people, "Taishang Three Corpses in the Scriptures" says: "The life of people is also parasitic to the twins of their parents, and they are full of the essence of the grains." In the belly of a person, there are three corpses and nine insects, which is a great harm. He often sued the Emperor of Heaven on the night of Gengshen, and recorded the crimes of people in order to record them in the slightest, wanting to kill people, reduce people's lives, and make people die quickly. ”

The evil of three corpses and nine insects not only speaks of people's negligence, but also leads people to negligence, and at the same time it is also a bad offender of the human body. Taoism takes the treatment of three corpses as the key to becoming an immortal, and the concept of beheading three corpses, that is, proving that the golden immortal is deeply rooted in the minds of Taoists.

"Taishang Three Corpses in the Scriptures" said: "The roundworm is four inches, five inches or eight inches long, and this insect penetrates the heart of the person to death." The white worm is one inch long, and there are many symbiotics, and the elderly are five inches, and the five organs are irritable, which is murderous and gluttony. Bugs make people cough a lot. Stomach worms are disgusting and unpleasant. Diaphragms are spitting. Red worms make the intestines sound and distant. Dung insects make people move and stop the drama, then they have sores and idiots, carbuncles, boils, fistula, ringworm, scabies, epilepsy, and all kinds of actions. "The symptoms of diseases caused by the destruction of the human body by the three corpses were recorded.

The "three corpses" are pests that live in the human body.

"Three" indicates that the pest is numerous, and "corpse" is the name of these parasites.

The corpse resides in the jade pillow hole at the back of the head, which is a blue-green worm, two inches long, which will cause a strong feeling of swelling in the human head.

The middle corpse lives in the center of the back, on both sides of the spine, is a kind of worm, slightly shorter and thicker than the upper corpse, and has some whisker-like tentacles on the head, once the middle corpse deviates from the back, the host will be troubled by the hunchback.

The lower corpse lives in the tail lud** and has the ability to decide the life and death of human beings.

The corpse was blood-red, covered in fine short hairs, wrapped in a thick layer of slime.

One theory is that it resembles a silkworm, while another theory suggests that it resembles a fetus that grows to five months old.

In addition to the explanation of the corpse of the parasite, the three corpses are also believed to be transformed by the evil qi of the human body.

Volume 81 of "Seven Signatures of the Cloud Pipe" says: "The three corpses are thought to be the spirits by the yin qi", and it is also said: "After the death of a person, the soul rises to the sky and enters the earth, and only the three corpses wander away, and the name is called the ghost." ”

Whether it is a spirit or a ghost, it is an extremely common term in the Daomen, and its essence is the evil qi between heaven and earth, which is different from the yin and yang qi.

Between heaven and earth, within the Liuhe, its qi Kyushu, nine orifices, five Tibets, and twelve knots are all connected to the weather. Its life is five, its qi is three, and if you commit this several times, the evil spirit hurts people, and this life is also the foundation.

In medicine, it is believed that the reason why the human body is sick is because of the invasion of external evils, and the three corpses are the evil qi of the human body, so it is not difficult to understand why Taoism believes that all kinds of diseases in the human body are caused by the three corpses.

The three corpses are harmful to the human body, so Taoism has various methods to kill the three corpses, and the basic premise of the golden pill is to behead the three corpses. These methods include:

1. Medications

How to kill the three corpses, there are many medicines and prescriptions mentioned in the Taoist book, including Huangjing, Dansha, Poria cocos, Angelica dahurica, peach leaf (Yiyun peach root), turnip, etc.

There are many prescriptions recorded in the "Seven Signatures of Yun Ji", such as: "On March 3, take peach leaves, a cloud of peach roots, pound seven liters of juice, and fry them with one liter of vinegar, so that you can get five or six points, eat first, and take it at once." If there is no food overnight, that is, the corpses and insects are all down. ”

There is also a saying that "make up for the deficiency, stop the cold and heat, fill the essence, and kill the three corpse insects".

Considering its medicinal properties, it is sweet and flat, and has the function of replenishing and benefiting qi, moistening the heart and lungs, filling the essence, and helping the muscles and bones.

Dansha is sweet and cold, mainly treats the five internal organs and all kinds of diseases, nourishes the spirit, calms the soul and invigorates the qi, lightens the body, makes people energetic, not easy to age, kills the essence and evil ghosts, clears the blood, quenches the thirst, pleases the human face, calms the heart, the main corpse convulsions, detoxes the fetus, and drives away evil and abuse.

Poria cocos has a bitter and flat taste, which can calm the soul and nourish the mind, regulate the dirty qi, and remove the kidney evil. Angelica dahurica has a pungent and warm taste, which can disperse wind and dampness, relieve pain, and disperse the evil of the stomach, intestines and lungs, and the stomach meridian is the mainstay.

The peach leaf has a bitter and flat taste, which can remove corpse insects, remove sores and poisons, and cure evil spirits.

The taste of turnip is pungent and flat, and it is mainly used to treat the evil qi of the five internal organs, disperse poisonous fossils, kill insects and disperse stasis.

It is not difficult to see that these Taoist drugs used to kill the three corpses all have a certain medicinal effect of killing insects and repelling evil spirits and dispersing stasis, and their medical heritage is also here.

Second, the line of qi

Although medicine cannot explain the function of qi in the human body, the benefits of qi to the human body have long been recognized by the world.

At the same time, Xingqi is an important part of Taoist health preservation, and there is a saying that "the key to health preservation: one is to be spiritual, the second is to love qi, the third is to cultivate the form, the fourth is to guide, the fifth is to speak, the sixth is to eat, the seventh is to be roomy, the eighth is anti-vulgar, the ninth is medicine, and the tenth is taboo".

There are "three things" that are very important in health preservation: "If you want to be immortal, you can only get the most important thing, and the most important thing is to treasure the essence, practice qi, and take a big medicine is enough, and you don't need more", pointing out that "people get the qi of heaven and earth to live", and if they get qi, they will live, and if they lose their qi, they will die. This shows that Taoism attaches great importance to qi.

3. Charms

Charms include talismans and spells, and are one of the important spells of the Daomen.

In addition to the spell of the three corpses, there is "Shangxuan Extinguishing Desire to Behead the Corpse and Change the Scenery Streamer Jade Talisman".

Shang said, "When in the door of lust, the north to the knife, please a glass of water, facing the water, after the disciple, knock the teeth nine passes, curse: on the corpse of green desire, self-named Peng Qi, nine kinds of changes, bird head snake body." Chaos has no heart, sinking or floating. Greed breeds beauty, and the beauty is self-proclaimed. Walking as a soul is to blame. Cut off the root of people's lives, and disperse the fugue. Wandering the three palaces, there is no worm. Real person A and B, wearing a belt charm. Lust is broken, and the dead end is gone. ”

"Yuan Shi has a life, please behead the corpse. Three monitors, fast out of the void. Wipe out the roots, and don't leave them behind. A and B practice the truth, and the three palaces are clear. The Five Emperors supervised the screening, and the book was too certain. The Northern Yuan bathes, and the crown is in the domain. ”

"Fit to the heavenly realm, flowing scenery and jade. Escape to the top and travel in the air. After finishing, take the rank of the knife, the teacher to wrap the disciple's head nine times, the next rolled jade talisman, buried under the door of lust, with a cup of water poured on. If you do this way, the corpse will be destroyed, the lust will be eliminated, and the body will pass through the realm of heavenly disciples, and the body and soul will not be troubled again. ”

In the ritual of casting talismans and chanting spells, Daomen itself has implied hygiene and disease prevention measures such as cleaning and disinfection, and the materials used for its talismans are dansha and peach wood with disinfection and sterilization functions.

At the same time of reciting the mantra to drive away the three corpses, it also makes a psychological suggestion to the person himself, which first requires the person who recites the mantra to be calm, clear out distracting thoughts and all kinds of delusions, and eliminate anxiety, depression and other bad emotions; Secondly, the person who recites the spell is required to be sincere and trusting in the ability of the spell to kill the three corpses.

The three corpse insects are already upset, and the process of reciting the charm just restrains these bad emotions.

4. Contraindications

The upper corpse is a good treasure, the middle corpse is good for the five flavors, and the lower corpse is lustful, according to which the Taoist sect requires believers to stay away from heavy food and taste, not to be greedy for pleasure, and to indulge in lust without restraint.
