단전에 대한 이해: 도교 수행의 에너지 센터

### 단전에 대한 이해 기공과 도교의 에너지 센터
* 🧘 기공과 도교에서는 우리의 의도를 **하단전으로 향하게 함으로써 긴장을 풀거나 이완**을 유도하여 중심을 잡고 행동할 수 있도록 도와줍니다.
* 🔋 단전은 세포 수준에서 에너지 공장 역할을 하는 **미토콘드리아에 비유**할 수 있으며, **주요 단전은 장수와 지혜의 비약**을 배양하는 분야를 나타냅니다.
* 🌌 전통적으로 주요 단전은 **세 번째 눈의 상단전, 심장의 중단전, 배꼽 아래의 하단전**으로 나뉘며, 각각 우리 존재의 다른 측면과 관련이 있습니다.
* 💖 위쪽 단전에는 **션 또는 정신이 저장**되어 직관과 영적 영역과의 연결에 영향을 미치며, 중간 단전은 **생명력인 기와 연결**되어 횡격막과 연결되어 있습니다.
* 🌱 징과 관련된 하단천은 생명의 본질과 생식력을 나타내며, 에너지 보존에 있어 **생식 건강과 균형 잡힌 관계의 중요성**을 강조합니다.
* 🌈 기공 스타일에 따라 단전의 위치를 다르게 정의하기도 하는데, **허리 아래쪽의 뒤쪽 단전과 배꼽을 앞쪽 단전**으로 보는 등 단전을 수평으로 정렬하는 경우도 있습니다.
* 🔄 궁극적으로 모든 단전 모델은 **기공과 도교의 특정 학파에 따라 에너지 저장과 흐름에 대한 다양한 관점을 제공**하면서 유효합니다.
* 💡 서양 과학과 동양 전통을 종합하면 **신체의 모든 부위는 에너지를 저장하고 방출하는 능력**을 가지고 있으며, 전반적인 웰빙에서 **에너지 센터의 중요성**이 강조됩니다.

단전은 몸 전체의 생명력과 감정의 균형을 맞추는 에너지 센터 역할을 합니다.

Again, something I love about your work is the synthesis between Western science and the Eastern traditions. I'm interested in the energy centers, and I'd like to hear your thoughts on this. So, the dantien, as people may know, and you've already talked about, is the Elixir field, where one of the core energy centers for the Chinese Arts, the low dantian. But there's three, and I was wondering, yeah, what are the energy centers mean for you, and what are the differences between the three and the Chinese Arts. So, every part of the body has a capacity to store energy and to move or release energy. If you look at a dead cell in a micro with a microscope compared to a living cell, the main difference is that the living cell has a bioelectric charge and thus has the capacity for movement. Now, certain places in the body have a greater or lesser capacity to store energy. I have a theory that that, and this is not from the Chinese literature, it's from my own idea that at the level of the cell

the donchian is the mitochondria. That's the energy factory of the cell. So, we have dantians even at a cellular level. But the major Don qens, the major fields of The Elixir Don, is elixir 10. It's a farmer's field. It's the field where we plant the elixir of longevity and wisdom. The major dantians are usually divided into three. However, according to the system of Qigong or Taoism that you're practicing, the location of the donkins may differ. It is not as some religious dogma where if one teacher tells you the middle dantian is the heart, well, that's the correct location. No, because there are dantians throughout the body. Classically, the major three dantens, by classically I mean in the probably the majority of literature and among the majority of practitioners, the upper dantian is the third eye. We call that the shangdan Tien, upper dantin. It stores Shen or spirit, accounts for our intuition, our

connection with spirit. It is easily lost if we're too involved with the outside world and forget the interior world. So, sometimes we close our eyes to conserve shed so the light of the eyes does not go out. It illuminates the microcosm. So, upper Dan Chen between the eyebrows, middle Don Chen related not to Shen but to Chi, the life force connected geographically in the body with the diaphragm, is at the heart. We conserve Chi through not wasting our energy, through periods of quiet, especially quiet breathing, through not talking too much. Talking too much also wastes cheap. And then the lower dot Yen, about three inches below the navel, is in for most teachers connected with Jing j-i-n-g, which literally means life Essence. It's actually a picture of wheat germ if you look at the old character. So, it's the germ or essence of life. It's related to reproductive Force. You could say that the upper dantian is the nervous system, middle dantian respiratory system, lower dantian endocrine system.

and we conserve the Jing through reproductive health, through balanced sexual relations. So, we might also think of the three dantians as three pillars of Taoist healing practices: meditation, Qigong, and balanced relationships. But there are other styles of Qigong where the upper dantian remains at the third eye, but the middle dantian is the navel, and the lower dantian is the perineum. And there's still another system, very popular in China, where the teachers say, Oh, oh no, the three dantians are not vertical, they're horizontal. There's the rear dantian, which is the mingmen or gate of life, the area of the lower back opposite the navel. There's the navel, which is the front dantian, and then there's the middle dantian, the place of emptiness where it's easier to realize emptiness by focusing on the region between the navel and the lower back. So, there you have three dantians in a horizontal alignment. So again, dantian is just an area that has

a greater capacity to store energy. And if you were to ask me, Well, which of those different models of the body are right? I'd say all of them. They're just in ways of explaining or visualizing energy storage and flow that is consistent with a particular School of Qigong or Daoism. King, powerful answer, and thank you for that. And yeah, I invite the lesson to listen back to that because there's a lot of depth in it. And for me, yeah, I think I haven't had too much Dan Tien training and kind of a traditional Chinese medicine, but my kind of intuitive understanding is that exactly as you're saying, like we have energy centers throughout the body, and there's particular emotions or energies that get stored in different parts of our body. So, you know, tension in the foreheads where, you know, the third eye is. This is often where we hold a lot of our life tensioners in that in the forehead and the eyes, and we can soften the heart. Obviously, the heart is very responsive to our emotions, and the belly, just as we've

talked about today is we can tense up and brace ourselves, or we can invite that relaxation and send our intention down to the lower dantian. Actually, rebalances us. It's our physical sensors, the center of our gravity. And so, if we send our intention down, then yeah, we can rebalance and act from our center.

단전, 특히 낮은 단전은 중국 예술의 핵심 에너지 센터로 총 3개의 단전이 있습니다.

신체의 각 부위에는 에너지를 저장, 이동 또는 방출할 수 있는 능력이 있으며, 살아있는 세포는 움직임을 가능하게 하는 생체 전하를 나타냅니다.

이 이론에 따르면 신체 부위마다 에너지를 저장하는 용량이 달라서 전체적인 에너지 역학에 영향을 미친다고 합니다.

에너지 절약에 있어 세 가지 단톈과 그 역할

상단(눈썹 사이)은 신경계, 중단(횡격막 주변)은 호흡기, 하단(배꼽 아래)은 내분비계와 관련된 신체의 주요 에너지 센터로, 세 개의 단전은 신체의 핵심 에너지 센터입니다.

에너지 절약은 조용한 시간, 균형 잡힌 성관계, 명상 및 기공과 같은 수련을 통해 이루어집니다.

기공에는 단전의 배열에 따라 다양한 체계가 있으며, 일부 교사는 수평 배열을 강조하기도 합니다.

신체의 여러 모델은 에너지 저장과 흐름에 대한 다양한 설명을 제공하며, 모두 타당합니다.

몸 전체의 에너지 센터는 삶의 긴장을 유지하는 이마나 눈과 같은 특정 감정 및 긴장과 관련이 있습니다.

심장과 배도 감정에 반응하고 에너지를 저장하는 데 중요한 역할을 합니다.

기공과 도교에서 단전의 중요성

단전은 우리 몸의 균형을 바로잡고 균형을 잡는 데 필수적이며, 세포 수준까지 그 영향력이 확장됩니다.

주요 단전은 일반적으로 세 가지로 나뉘며, 기공이나 도교 수련법에 따라 위치가 달라집니다.

상단천 또는 상단천은 일반적으로 제3의 눈과 관련이 있으며 정신과 직관을 저장하는 것으로 여겨집니다.
