because I don’t know much of shen, I know is the byproduct of chi which is from jing and so on. I can only understand fully the jing and understand somewhat chi.
Can someone explain to me shen?
The old internal alchemy shen was compressed to heart and brain (or mind)
the ancient art album is compressed to veins and blood and heart also I think
it’s the spirit energy and all yes
but what does it do? because the metaphor above with cooking is a bit complicated to put in real time experience. It’s the loss of energy? Because after using it I really feel like myself again, well in a sense I become more and more like me. It halted the loss of jing.
