Overheating the Kidneys
Because the abdominal Dan Tien is so close to the Kidneys, in the beginning, your Kidneys will get very healthy, thus resulting in over-all health improvement. Because energy will condense to the Dan Tien, the Kidneys will get hot at first, if you are training correctly. One must take care to keep the Kidneys in the proper balance; keep them warm, but not too hot, and not too cold. If you keep them too cold, the aforementioned problems are obvious. If you keep them too hot, then the Kidneys will produce an imbalance of testosterone and too much jing for you to process alchemically. As a result, you will leak jing, whether during sexual intercourse, or during sleep, through nocturnal emission, or even through urination, through an excess of jing building up by the prostate, forcing its way out. As a result, you will go from too hot to too cold, and will experience dual Kidney Yin and Yang Qi Deficiency; a very hard-to-treat syndrome.
The Kidneys, however, should not be understood as “excessively” hot, when they are too hot. They should, instead, be seen as deficient in Yin. This is a nuanced difference between a state of excess that other organs experience. In Chinese Medicine, the Kidneys are understood a little differently. The right kidney is understood as related to Yang Qi, and the left to Yin Qi. While this might seem arbitrary in nature, it is related to the fact that the Liver pushes the right kidney slightly lower, closer to the heat of the Dan Tien, thus heating it more. The appropriate “heat” of the Kidneys will be relative to the balance of Yin and Yang energies. This is a very involved matter, that can be explained more to students, as this becomes somewhat “tricky” when retaining jing for alchemical purposes.
In general though, if you are not doing other things to increase your yang too much, and if you are keeping the yang in balance with yin, through various means, including diet, you will be very healthy. If you want to be healthy, level 1 Mo Pai training is very good for life-long training and improving your health daily. It is only when qi is being taken at a very concentrated, and very efficient manner – more qi direction to the Dan Tien per second of focus, as you advance – that qi can be leeched from the Kidneys. This can happen too from healing people too much, if attention is not paid to deliberately renourishing the Kidneys along the way. On the other hand, healing is very good for one’s karma, and thus for their te (power), as we will see...
