Dear friends, firstly thank you for all your advice.
I was wonder if there is anything similar to this in Sapien Medicine, or whether Sapien is planning to do this. In one of the biggest ‘secret instructions’ of the Rinzai (Linji) sect of Zen, there is the infamous method called “Nanso No Ho” (meaning Soft Ointment Meditation) which was described in the classic text (Yasenkanna).
See Page 18 of Yasenkanna, also called “Soft Butter Method”.
What happened was that the awakened Hakuin (infamous Zen master) had done too much spiritual practice and all his energy was rising upwards, causing all kinds of ‘ascension symptoms’ and disrupting his health. He went searching around for solutions and then found a hermit in a cave who was rumoured to live to 300 years old.
He was then taught this “Nanso No Ho” method which involves visualising a bright, healing, fragrant duck egg on top of the crown, which melts slowly and ‘infuses’ into the skull due to the body’s heat. As it melts, it flows through each area of the body, causing blockages to drain downwards. This continues until the ointment reaches the feet, and the blockages are flushed out from the bottom of the feet.
Then the pure ointment accumulates from the feet and goes all the way up to the level of the lower dan tien, in a way where it is like sitting in a warm bath tub from your navel down. The upper body is cool and free of all tension and blockages. Then the meditator sits like this for at least 25 minutes.
This method was so often used by Hakuin that it is now one of the foundational practices of Zen, used to ‘ground’ ascension symptoms and any kind of energetic congestion in the upper region of the body. It also builds the lower dan tien, revitalising it and allowing awakening (dual purpose). Many rinzai zen masters (roshis) have talked about this method.
I was wondering if Sapien would ever take a request like this to automate such a process, because it is such a powerful method which can immediately release all ascension symptoms, clear the body of all illnesses, allow longevity (like the 300yo hermit) and serve as a basis to awakening
Kind regards to you all…
