In 1983, Mantak Chia introduced the Microcosmic Orbit to the West. Prior to that time, most of the Eastern energy practices transmitted to the West were incomplete, dealing only with the ascending yang/masculine channel, which shoots life-force energy up the spine. The Microcosmic Orbit showed practitioners how to establish the descending yin/feminine channel of the life-force energy loop. Within Taoist systems, cultivating feminine energy has always been seen as the key to gaining balance and wholeness. HEALING LIGHT OF THE TAO presents the more advanced methods of chi cultivation in the Microcosmic Orbit, offering a full understanding of Taoist spiritual theory through its comprehensive overview of the complete Taoist body/mind/spirit system. The book, also, includes more advanced meditation methods for absorbing the higher frequencies of Earth Force, Cosmic Force and Universal Force (Heavenly chi) into the basic orbit. It establishes a spiritual science that not only emphasises practical benefits to health, sexual vitality and emotional balance, but, also, shows how changes made in the energy body can lead to physical rejuvenation that the Taoists called immortality.
