Zen Philosophy & Heritage
1. Talismanic methods derive from The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon: Spiritual Pivot • Lifespan Chapter (《黄帝内经·灵枢·寿夭刚柔篇》) (c. 475–221 BC YEAR).
2. Masters select "Sheng Qi" (生气) and "Tian Yi" (天医) auspicious days for consecrated brushwork.
3. "Heavens clear, earth tranquil, meridians harmonized, evil winds dispersed, longevity eternally present"
4. Annual Renewal: Replace each Lìchūn (立春) solar term. Roll old scroll into bamboo-tube shape, burn in ceramic brazier, mix ash with glutinous rice, and scatter under courtyard plum trees—symbolizing "disease energy nourishes blossoms" .
5. Taboos: Avoid damp/filthy locations to preserve efficacy; pregnant women use cautiously due to potent yang energy.
