The profound methods for nourishing the Qi of the five viscera stress the importance of timing, location, and human harmony. They use the spiritual essence of heaven, earth, and all creation to nurture the internal organs, often focusing on the cycles of generation and restriction between the Five Elements and their corresponding organs.
For instance, the heart belongs to the element of fire. When it becomes active, it grows fierce, causing Qi and Blood to surge and harm the body. Thus, it must be supplemented with gentle medicines, while the mind's intent focuses on tranquility to subdue the "monkey mind," allowing the heart to attain the power of Tongxuan.
However, the Five Evils Technique Zhao Xuanqi now employed was the exact opposite. While it also stressed timing, location, and human harmony, its purpose was not to nurture, but to assault!
