the location of the points described here. DO NOT moxa any points on the body at random, as some are forbidden to moxa heat as dangerous. Without further instruction, you should moxa only the points I describe here.

It is best to use garlic and onion with mox. Garlic is the best, which you should slice or chop and put in a piece of cheese cloth. You then put it on the acupuncture point to be treated and apply the heat of mox or the roll or the cigar or heater to the garlic. Don't overwarm it, as you can hurt yourself. Garlic is a very strong stimulus. If kept on the place too long it will "burn" the skin, and you may suffer from superficial heat burns as well. So, be careful. If allergic to garlic you can use the onion. If allergic also to onion, you may use heat alone, which is still effective.

Moxa each point for 3 to 4 minutes, but hold the heat roll at the point for a few seconds only, moving it up and down all the time, pressing deeply unless discomfort sets in. Do not exceed this time of 3 to 4 minutes. When doing moxa try to keep the room warm. Be careful of a cold room, especially when you are nude, as you will lose a lot of chi. If you are using the cigar, moxi rolls, or cigarette, afterwards the room will be smoky for awhile. So you must have very good ventilation to exhaust the smoke out.

Do this moxa treatment every day for ten days and then stop for 3 days. Then start another 10 day period of application. Don't drink wine or take a bath for two hours after mox treatment. During mox treatment stop having sex until you recover. If the condition is serious, stop sex for 1 to 3 months. After a thorough rest you will recover your strength and potency. If you discipline yourself to follow the cycle of 10 day treatments and 3 to 4 day rest, most men will recover their potency unless suffering an anatomical defect (which is extremely rare).

1. URINARY BLADDER MERIDIAN-KAN-SHU BL-18

THE MAIN LIVER POINT

Start at back, the urinary bladder meridian, called the Foot TaiYang. The first point is the Kan Shu BL-18. Kan-Shu is one and one-half tsun beside the lower end of the spinous process of T9. One and one-half tsun (1 tsun is a thumb-width) is the width of your index and middle finger. This is considered the main liver point. The liver stores the body's energy. With too much intercourse or stress, the body must draw its supplies from the liver and deplete it. For this reason this treatment is helpful in hepatitis. The spinous process is the outer tip of the vertebra as you move outward from the center line of the spinal cord.

2. PI-SHU BL-20 MAIN POINT OF SPLEEN

Second point is the Pi-Shu BL-20, which is one and one-half tsun beside the lower end of the spinous process of Til. This is the main point for the spleen. It also helps backaches and indigestion.

CO-4, three tsun below the umbilicus. All points on the functional (conception) meridian on your back help increase energy in the abdominal organs, including the small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and prostate gland. By stimulating all these organs you greatly help to reduce your impotency.

THE SPECIAL POINTS FOR IMPOTENCE:

1. HEAD OF THE PENIS, GLANS PENIS, ROOT OF PENIS,

HUI-YIN

All back and front points on the governor and functional meridians stimulate the organs. The points listed here are the special points for impotence. First point is the head of the penis, or the glans penis. Best way to use is slice the garlic (don't chop it and don't use garlic if you are allergic to it) and punch a hole in it with a needle. For the first few times put on a silk cloth to prevent burning the penis glans and then use the heater. Second point is the 2 points at the under root of penis. Third point is hui-yin, the perineum located between the anus and the penis, which is included in the special points.

3. LAO-KUNG (MASSAGE ONLY)

The point mentioned here cannot use moxa, but responds to massage and rubbing. On the hand, the Lao-Kung is between the middle and fourth fingers when the hand is closed so that all fingers run along the line in the hand. Rub this point every day.

4. YUNG-CHUAN KIDNEY POINT (MASSAGE ONLY)

Another point is on the Kidney meridian, called the Foot ShaoYin. The point is the Yung-Chuan. KI-1 point is on the inside of the ball of the foot (where your weight falls directly) on a line below the second toe, counting your big toe as the first. Never moxi this point. Only rub with a finger or rub the bottom of your feet together every day. This will help to stimulate the kidney energy, the most important in regulating sexual activity.

264 Taoist Secrets Of Love

I have used moxa treatment for many years and helped many patients and students with the problem of impotence, and most recover in a very short time. Some have very serious nocturnal emissions (wet dreams). Some have emissions every two or three nights or sometimes in the daytime. They lose too much seed essence, or ching, and so lose the ability to have sex. They usually feel weak, and their face is pale. Using the moxa method combined with the power lock exercise (described in chapter 6) is the most effective, and the students who do both recover the most quickly, you should clench 108 times each morning and evening until your erection returns.

Many people get desperate and try to cure impotence with other methods. They try to stimulate themselves with even more sex, with hormones, Spanish fly, etc., but these only drain off their energy more quickly. The best way I can advise to cure impotence is to use Taoist methods of cultivation. I'm not telling you to have sex as much as you want but to have sex as a meaningful and delightful act in your life.

Any compulsive sex is meaningless and dangerous to your health. It's better to complete one very successful sexual act than 10 or 100 of unprepared, unpracticed sex. If you regard every act of sexual intercourse as a special or sacred occasion, take a bath, put perfume on, brush teeth, wash penis and anus, wash hair, ears, change bed cover, clean up the room, have some flowers, etc., it will help you reduce your compulsiveness.

If you have a gun you can't go out and begin shooting any person you see on the street. You'll get yourself in big trouble. Sex is the same; it's a powerful tool that becomes a dangerous weapon when fired indiscriminately. If you practice the Taoist method, your sexual organ will become strong but you need not give it to every woman you see. Use it meaningfully. A tool like a gun can help protect life or it can kill you and others. Using these things one must be very careful. If you know that excess ejaculatory sex can harm you and that cultivation of harmonious sexual energy with love makes life meaningful, you can cure yourself of impotence and return to full sexual fulfillment.
