Chapter 3 -“Anti-virus software” and the meridian system


“Anti-virus software” and the meridian system

“Can Lajin cure tinnitus?” “Can it cure headaches?” “Diabetes?” “What about hypertension?” All these questions have one thing in common — they are asked in terms of “disease names”. Yet what I want to emphasize is that people should first ignore the “disease names”. When you are trying only to suppress symptoms, problems will arise. For instance, “hypertensive” patients try all they can merely to reduce blood pressure to standard levels; and “diabetic” patients try every possible means just to lower blood sugar levels.

People should realize that according to Chinese medicine, all diseases are complex diseases, i.e. diseases are all interrelated. Do not look at a “disease” as an isolated phenomenon; instead, treat related diseases altogether. I call it “carpet bombing”. And, whether there are diseases or not, just drop the bombs first, as there could be various potential diseases lurking in your body that you might not even be aware of. Diseases that are detectable by modern medicine are just tip of the iceberg, there are many more yet to be detected. Often times, medication against one disease leads to onset of other diseases. However, what frequently happens with Paida and Lajin is that: when one disease is targeted, other diseases are cured as well. I encountered this when I cured some gynaecological disorders by chance while treating people with other diseases. I have thus become a “gynaecological expert” without realizing it. It is indeed quite amusing.

The human body has an innate “self-healing system” that cannot be seen or touched; it is known in Chinese medicine as the meridian system (system of energy channels). In Western medicine, it might be described as the “nervous system” or the “urinary system”. Chinese medicine holds that where ‘Qi’ flows smoothly, there will be natural blood flow”, and the actual work of driving blood flow is done by “Qi”. Furthermore, “Qi” is not visible to the naked eye, but cutting-edge scientific instruments can now detect the existence of “Qi”. I have a physicist friend named Zhang Changlin, whose book Invisible Rainbow elaborates on scientific proof of the existence of “Qi”.

When practicing Paida and Lajin, we are actually activating the “anti-virus software” in our body, i.e. the self-healing power. Once activated, it scans the entire body to cleanse all stagnant or blocked meridians. That is why one feels such sensations as soreness, numbness, swelling, pain, itchiness, cold, heat, etc. during the process. One feels pain where meridians are blocked. Where there is a minor obstruction (like a narrowed water pipe), when the “anti-virus software” is activated through Paida and/or Lajin, “Qi” will move faster and you will feel some numbing and swelling sensations; sometimes, all the sensations of soreness, numbness, swelling, and itchiness will sweep over you; sometimes, you will feel a warm sensation after the meridians are cleared; sometimes, you can even feel the cold being expelled from your body.

People are accustomed to treating a disease as an isolated phenomenon, and are prone to being misled by the disease name; they only want to get rid of the disease without being otherwise bothered. Unfortunately, this is not the way to treat diseases.
Then, what should be done? Remember the analogy of “anti-virus software” I just mentioned? 


Whenever I am asked if this or that disease can be cured, my answer would be, “Please remember anti-virus’! ‘anti-virus’!” By that, I mean in treatment of diseases, we should target the entire body, as a holistic system. Try to recall which meridian hurts most when doing Lajin, the Urinary Bladder Meridian, right? That’s the one located behind the knees. It runs from head to toe, and is the largest detoxification channel in our body. Cleansing this meridian cures numerous diseases, such as lower back and leg pain, liver problems, kidney disorders, gynaecological disorders, prostate disorders and so on. This is because the Urinary Bladder Meridian is linked to the lower back and legs, and is connected to the Spleen, Liver and Kidney Meridians. Some people can neither straighten the raised leg on the Lajin bench, nor can they have the lowered leg touch the ground. This indicates problems with the Urinary Bladder, Liver, Spleen, and Kidney Meridians. There are three “yin” meridians (the Spleen, Liver, and Kidney Meridians) along the inner side of the legs, and once cleared, diabetes, hypertension, gynaecological and prostate disorders will all be cured. Some people like to slap the Gall Bladder Meridian on the outer side of the legs; actually, it is more crucial to Paida the inner side of the thighs, which will deliver benefits that you may have never expected.

I recently discovered an additional type of diseases that can be treated with Lajin. Guess what can be most effectively treated among males, especially in older men? The answer is prostate disorders. A leader with the Department of Retired Officials told me that over 90% of the retired officials have prostate problems. They would travel great distances looking for all sorts of remedies, but the effects were only temporary. However, by practicing Paida and Lajin, the efficacy is almost immediate, and the effective rate is above 90%.

Why does Huang Di Nei Jing place so much emphasis on meridians? Because by cleansing meridians, health problems can be solved once and for all. But how come some people give up on meridian therapies shortly after applying knowledge of the meridian system in treatment of diseases? The answer is that the meridian system is quite complex, and that the number of acupoints along the meridians makes it an even greater challenge. Thus people find it hard to even start. This is the reason why I have chosen Lajin, because in Lajin, once the key principle is grasped, the rest will fall in place. The truest path is the simplest. The Lajin method may appear simple, but it stretches and clears all the meridians. Stretch as much as you can, and the pain will target blockages along the meridians. The moment you activate this “anti-virus software”, it starts to scan your entire body, carrying out diagnosis and treatment at the same time. Self-healing is that simple!
