By way of contrast, looking closely at a statue of the sage Bodhidharma in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London we can distinctly see a lotus opening in the area of his dantien, signifying that the chakra has been cut and establishing at once the source of Bodhidharma’s great power (figure 25).13

We have said that the dantien is the lowest chakra capable of storing yang in the centerline of the human body; the chakra below, the hui yin point, relates strictly to yin energy. When the strands of the dantien are severed, the dantien becomes a mobile ball filled with great amounts of yang ch’i. As we saw in chapter 1, this ball is sent down to the hui yin and essentially modifies the continuum of that point. In the process, the two energies rise together and the state of t’ai chi (the thunderbolt) is established at the former dantien point. In essence, what this means is that eternity itself is one step closer to the individual’s personal consciousness.14

The human being is forever altered at this instant. To use a Jungian phrase, we could say that the mass unconscious and the individual’s conscious mind are on an intimate basis. He possesses the ability to warp space-time, since that which is beyond space and time is now an intricate part of his being. He possesses superhuman strength and the ability to discharge energy at will. He has become what the Chinese call a hsien, an immortal. He is a child of thunder and wields the power of the thunderbolt.
