6 Attainments Elixir - Restore Abilities and Attain your Highest Self

Although it has just been made available to the public for the first time, the 6 Attainments Elixir has a long and rich history of use and is considered a superior medicinal tonic by traditional herbalists and in locations and communities that rely on herbal medicine as their primary health care modality.

Kidney Organ/Channel Network

The formulation of 6 attainments elixir is primarily geared for maximizing health via the Kidney organ/channel network. It differs from other kidney herbals in that it does not focus on sexual health as its primary goal. Instead it seeks to restore the health of the kidney network to its highest possible level, wherever the individual state may be. What this means is the everyone will have different level of kidney health depending a myriad of factors such as age, degeneration caused by lifestyle and life habits, and other such factors from daily living. For example, overwork, excessive sexual activity, child birth, indulgence in food and alcohol and illnesses or injuries, all deplete the health of the Kidney Network. Please keep in mind this is according to Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory.

"Jing" - Vital Essence

Likewise in TCM theory, it is the Kidney that stores and produces a substance termed "Jing" which loosely translates to Essence. Your Essence. The essence of what makes you, who you are. What you are good at, what you are not so good at, your physical strength and skills, your mental capacities, all that you can be if you nurture, cultivate and develop in order to achieve your essential best. Please note, this is a simplified description and books have been written to explain the nature of Jing/Essence. Our scope pertains to this herbal formula and how its purpose corresponds to the name it was given.

The 6 Atrainments aka The 6 Art / The 6 Excellences

3. Archery: Focus and Precision

   Archery demanded discipline, focus, and an unshakable inner calm. This meticulous attention to detail is mirrored in the exquisite craftsmanship of the bow and arrows, of the 18 and 52 weapons, and infusing this into movement bringing precision and elegance, to the brutality of war and elevating the art of combat into the highest reflection of your inner character. Yin and Yang interrelated, transforming the sometimes necessary ugliness of violence into elegance, precision, and at the highest levels, compassion.

   
   

4.  Chariot Riding: Mastery and Poise

The ability to expand skill and ability to an external moving structure in the midst of chaotic battle, avoiding, adjusting, redirecting in a manner beyond expertize and becoming feeling and sensing all the while keeping the mind poised and focused. This accomplishment opens the path to deep inner doors.
