The Three Dantiens

The human body has three important energy centers, that store and radiate energy, similar to the way a battery stores and releases energy. These three powerful energetic centers are called the Three "Dantians" and are located along the center core of the body't Taiji Pole . "Dantian:' is traditionally translated as "Cinnabar Field," or "Elixir Field."

 The primary energetic function of the Three Dantians is to gather, store, and transform lifeforce energy. The energy reservoirs of the Three Dantians are linked externally through the Governing (Sea of Yang Qi) and Conception (Sea of Yin Qi) Vessels; and are internally connected through the Thrusting Vessels and the body's Taiji Pole

 The center of each Dantian is energetically attached to the Taiji Pole, which extends from the Baihui point at the top of the head to the Huiyin point at the center of the lower perineum. Each of the Dantians generate heat, light, magnetic fields, and electrical vibrations. The energetic charge and intensity of each Dantian's vibration and magnetic field is dependent upon the disciple's ability to discipline and control his mental focus, posfure, and respiration.

 Qi moves into the body's Dantians through the body's Taiji Pole. The energy is then absorbed into the body's major organs and surrounding tissues as it flows through the Dantians and into the body's internal and external channels and collaterals. Energy can also be absorbed from the external environment through the body's tissues, channels, and internal organs, and be directed to flow directly into the Three Dantians and ultimately into the center core Taiji Pole.

 Because each Dantian acts like a reservoir, it collects energy and redistributes it into all of the internal organs. This energy also extends from the surface of the body outward, into the three external "Weiqi" (Protective Energy )fields
