Chapter 5: Beginning Fusion Element Meditation
Creating the Front Pakua
Drawing the Pakua on the Abdomen: the Front Pakua
It is important to get familiar with visualizing the pakua. Training the
mind to concentrate on a single image is of immeasurable value
for spiritual practice. The image of the pakua allows the mind to
focus and fuse energy. This first step is essential to the rest of the
Fusion practice. One of the best ways to get this image deeply
connected in the mind is to draw it on a piece of paper and place it
over your abdomen. Or, if you are a little more adventurous draw it
directly on the abdomen. When you draw the pakua, use blue for
Yin, red for Yang and black for the frame. Sometimes it helps to
work with a partner. Draw the pakua over your partner’s abdomen,
and do the meditation facing one another. This way you can glance
at the pakua and know what forces to work with. Be creative. Do
whatever works so that you get the image planted firmly in your
mind.
The pakua is between the underside of the rib cage and above
the pubic bone. When we chant the symbols of the trigrams, you
can use your finger to draw them on your own abdomen, or while
you look at the pakua on your partner.
There are 3 different major centers for generating the frequency
which fuse together to form the main energy center of the body. 1.
Tan Tien, the Chi Center can be measure like heat in the infrared.
2. Throat Center. 3. Third Eye Center.
