金刚功 - 八部金刚功跟练

Vajra Kung Fu, practiced daily, like water dripping on stone.

Vajra Kung Fu is a practice tool specifically designed for practitioners of the Eight-Part Vajra Kung Fu. It can be used offline, and the data belongs only to you.

▪ What is the Eight-Part Vajra Kung Fu?

The Eight-Part Vajra Kung Fu is a secret Taoist method for curing diseases and strengthening the body, passed down orally for generations, known to very few. Master Zhang Zhishun (also known as Mi Jingzi), the 21st generation successor of the Quanzhen Longmen School, compiled this secret method, passed down orally for hundreds of years, into writing, making it public.

The method uses the rigid internal force of the arms in a horizontal and vertical arc to unblock the meridians and harmonize the internal organs. The eight parts follow the principle of mutual generation of internal organs in the Huangdi Neijing: first, benefiting the Triple Burner to activate Qi; then strengthening the kidneys, regulating the spleen and skin, harmonizing the liver and lungs, and eliminating heart disease; next, using divine light to sweep away the five strains and seven injuries; finally, spreading wings throughout the body and stamping the feet to eliminate cravings, to achieve perfection. It can be practiced by men, women, young and old, without deviation or the risk of qi deviation or demonic possession.

▪ What are the differences between Vajra Kung Fu, Baduanjin, and Tai Chi?

According to tradition, the practice had its rudiments as early as the Tang Dynasty, was promoted in temples and monasteries during the Song Dynasty, and gradually spread to the common people from the Yuan, Ming, and early Qing Dynasties, sometimes referred to as "Baduanjin." The version currently transmitted is called the Eight-Part Vajra Kung Fu (External Eight Parts) according to internal lineage. Its mental methods, sequence, and movements differ significantly from the folk Baduanjin—Vajra Kung Fu trains the external form, body, and internal organs, using rigid internal strength, emphasizing continuous, even, and penetrating power.

Compared to Tai Chi, Vajra Kung Fu does not emphasize routines or push-hands, but uses eight fixed postures combined with rigid internal strength to directly unblock meridians and expel pathogenic qi. The movements are simple and direct, requiring no memorization of complex forms, making it suitable for daily practice. External qi movement induces internal qi, with rigidity and softness complementing each other, internal and external fusion forming a unified whole.

▪ About Master Zhang Zhishun

Master Zhang Zhishun (also known as Mi Jingzi and Jiuqu Huiyang Daoren), born in 1912, was from Shenqiu County, Henan Province. He left home at the age of seven amidst the chaos of war, began learning martial arts at twelve, and at seventeen met Master Liu Mingcang at Mount Hua in Shaanxi Province, becoming a monk and receiving the true transmission of the Eightfold Vajra Kung Fu.

The Master dedicated his life to rigorous self-cultivation, practicing asceticism for the benefit of others: he treated his teacher like a parent, studied Taoist scriptures, conducted arduous fundraising for the repair of Taoist temples, and was proficient in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and massage, always ready to help those in need. His fellow Taoists admired him, calling him "Water-Walking Master," "Seventy-Nine Taoist," and "Eight Trigrams Immortal." Even at over a hundred years old, he remained sharp of hearing and sight, and walked with a sprightly gait.

He served as the abbot of Louguantai, president of the Wuleishan Taoist Association, and executive director of the National Taoist Association. In 1993, he left the mountain to teach the Vajra Longevity Kung Fu and internal alchemy, traveling extensively throughout China and Thailand. To uphold his master's teaching of "passing down the tradition without interruption," and combining his 84 years of practice, he systematically organized and made public the methods, allowing the world to benefit from them.

The Taoist master said, "With a handle in my own hand, my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven."
