THE SEVENTH FORMULA: REUNION OF MAN AND
HEAVEN
TRUE IMMORTAL MAN
We compare the body to a ship and the soul to the engine and
propeller of a ship. This ship carries a very precious and very large
diamond, which it is assigned to transport to a very distant shore. If
your ship is damaged (a sick and ill body), no matter how good the
engine is, you are not going to get very far and may even sink. Thus
we advise against spiritual training unless all of the channels in the
body have been properly opened and have been made ready to
receive the 10,000 or 100,000 volts of super power, which will pour
down into them. The Taoist approach, which has been passed
down to us for over 5,000 years, consists of many thousands of
methods. The formulae and practices we describe in these books is
based on such secret knowledge and the author's own experience
in over twenty years of study and of successfully teaching thousands
of students.
The main goal of Taoists:
1. This level—overcoming reincarnation, or enlightment.
2. Higher level—the Immortal spirit.
3. Highest level—the Immortal spirit in an immortal body. This
body functions like a mobile home to the spirit and soul as it moves
through the subtle planes, and allows greater power of manifestation.
