XingMing(性命)
Xing ( mind ) is psychology and Ming ( body ) is physiology.
Taoism’s way of nurturing life called ” Xing Ming Shuang Xiu ” means look after both ( mind & body ).
In cultivating Xing ( mind ) the emphasis is on training spirit, making spirit detach from the myriad things, a kindhearted clear mind.
In cultivating Ming ( body ) the emphasis is on cultivating energy, developing life’s potential, enriching life’s energy.
The two mutually act and mutually produce; refining essence to transform into energy; refining energy to transform into spirit; draw the spirit within to achieve stillness.
