The Secret of the Golden Flower—the physiological mystery.

The Secret of the Golden Flower (5th edition) is a timeless Taoist meditation manual that bridges ancient Chinese inner alchemy with modern psychological insight. Originally translated by Richard Wilhelm and supported by Carl Jung’s commentary, this edition highlights the subtle interplay between breath, meditation, light, and human consciousness.

In this video, our focus shifts toward the physiological and energetic dimensions of the text, particularly its teachings on semen retention and sexual inner alchemy. These practices, rooted in ancient Taoist and Tantric traditions, offer us a clear pathway to transmute our vital essence into spiritual (bio-electrical) energy, enhancing clarity, vitality, and an inner stillness.

We examine the enigmatic metaphor of the “square inch field in the square foot house”—a poetic reference to the meditative centre behind the forehead—and its intriguing resonance with the Ajna chakra of the Vedic tradition. This convergence invites us to reflect on the anatomical and energetic seat of intuition, insight, and spiritual awakening.

Finally, we consider the possibility of awakening subtle psychic powers—siddhis—through disciplined energy cultivation. As the light turns inward and the breath harmonises, our latent faculties may stir: heightened intuition, increased visionary perception, and expanded awareness.

It’s important to note that this is not an advert for population control—quite the opposite. Creative energy work, including semen retention for the male practitioner, is a conscious journey of cultivation. When practiced within a committed partnership, it should ideally align with the sacred goal of parenthood. In many Western countries, birth rates are declining at an alarming rate. Far from hindering fertility, creative energy practices may offer a solution to one of the most pressing challenges we face as a civilisation. The average pregnancy spans approximately 40 weeks—ample time to develop the discipline and attunement required in creative energy work. Rather than delay conception, such practices may deepen a couple's readiness, strengthen the bond, and restore the generative power of love and life.
