- The Three Treasures -
The Three Treasures of The Human Body are: Jing (Essence) - chi
(Vitality) - Shen
(Spirit) The Taoist
tradition, which is at the foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine
states, "There are Three Treasures that in effect constitute our life.
These are known as Jing, Chi and Shen."
The ultimate goal of the
Herbal Doctor is to cultivate, balance and expand the Three Treasures
attempting to harmonize all aspects of one's being. This is best
accomplished by focusing one's attention on the Three Treasures. There are
no exact translations for the terms Jing, Qi and Shen into English. They
are generally translated, though, as Essence, Vitality and Spirit. Here is
a look at The Three Treasures:
Jing
"The Superior
Treasure" existed before the body existed. It enters the body tissues and
becomes the root of our lives. It is this very essence that defines what
we are and who we are, also what and who we will produce. This is why it
is associated with our development and also our sexual energy. We must
take care of our jing throughout our lives or we will die.
Note:
Can you see how this relates to our western understanding of
DNA?
Qi or "Chi"
This is God's created living energy
that empowers us to live, breath, and do all our voluntary actions. We
cannot create it but we can use it to the fullest and keep its pathways
within our temples (bodies) clean. It enters us in the form of "Heaven
Chi" through the nose as we breathe and circulates through the twelve
meridians nourishing all our vital organs keeping them held firmly in
place as long as we take care of ourselves.
Note: Chi is vaguely
beginning to be "accepted" in the west but it must be recognized as a
"chain reaction of energy" in the body and its path (the 12 meridians)and
must be taken seriously (mapped out on medical charts) and not fouled up
with "science" trying to relate it to western
thought!
Shen
This is a combination of our mind and
spirit. It is developed by both our Jing and our Chi. It gives us our will
and our conscience. Our Shen depends on a healthy Jing and healthy free
flowing Chi to make the right decisions in life and to contribute to the
world and to our creator.
The Three Treasures
Are Often Likened To A Candle in the Dark:
The
Jing or Life Root of the body is like the candle wick and wax. They
existed before the body of the flame did and they are made from the
elements which are actually condensed energy which is God's own
creation.
The flame of the candle is exactly like Chi. This is the
energetic living activity of the candle which will last a good long time
if kept from wind and rain or other outside disturbances but it will
always eventually burn itself out. It can, however be made to burn a much
longer time if the right wax materials are added as it burns.
The glowing light that the
candle radiates is the Shen. The better quality of wick, wax, and other
materials, the greater the flame and the greater the flame, the greater
light the candle radiates. The more light the candle radiates, the more
people are not in darkness. The more people are not in darkness, the
better the world!
So what makes
a superior tonic herb separate from other healing herbs and what part
of the body do these tonic herbs address? Basically, they must
address at least one (Often all) of The Three Treasures
There is a small
grouping of herbs called The Superior Herbs. These are the true tonic
herbs. Although everyone is different in their balances of Yin, Yang, Chi,
Jing, Shen, Blood, Heat, Moisture, and other factors, This group of
Superior Herbs are those herbs that can benefit just about
anyone.
The Superior Class of herbs (See list at bottom of page)
are called 'The Rulers'. They control the maintenance of life in general.
These Superior Herbs are not considered to be 'medicinal' in the usual
sense of the word. They are not used to treat specific diseases or
disorders, yet such things as Week Sore Knees, Poor Eyesight, Low Sexual
Energy, Impotence and Infertility, High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol,
Obesity, General Week Vitality, even Gray Hair, and many other things that
plague many of us are often completely cured by these Superior Tonic
Herbs.
Remember these symptoms just mentioned are commonly treated
by doctors with the most deadly of all pharmaceuticals. This is why I have
always said doctors should concentrate on traumatic injuries and stay far,
far away from our tonic health with their "Science" and
Pharmaceuticals.
So what makes a superior tonic herb separate from
other healing herbs and what actually do these tonic herbs address?
Basically, they must address at least one (Or often all) of "The Three
Treasuries"
