This meditation of inner alchemy involves nurturing and developing the root and heart centers, as well as transforming the sexual energy in the navel. The formula of the Lesser Kan & Li reverses the normal process of wasting energy. The vital secret of this formula is that the usual positions of fire and water are reversed to release sexual energy. In normal life, in our physical body, the heart-fire is in the upper chest and the water is in the lower area, i.e. the kidneys, the bladder and the sexual palace.
By changing places, the heat of the body fire passes under the coolness of the body water. Without this reversal, the fire simply flares up and burns the body. The water (the sexual fluids) tends to flow downwards and leave the body. When the water dries up, the body breathes its last. The process of evaporation can be extended over a long time. The warm moist steam produced carries tremendous energies and is highly beneficial to health. The glands and the nervous and lymphatic systems are regenerated, and the circulation of energy and body fluids is intensified.
The collection of formulas in LKL has the primary purpose of healing and dissolving the body. It does this by cleansing and healing the organs and meridians. With the organ energies refined to their pure essence (virgin child or base animal nature), the spirit or soul of each organ can be released. These separate spirits and souls can be merged both together (creating the lesser medicine), and being exposed to the great white light (greater medicine) can facilitate rebirth and formation of the integrated spiritual body.
