Baihui / Hundred
Meetings
The main point being accessed in this position
is Baihui, which is the 20th point on the Du extra
channel. This point is also known as Hundred Meetings.
Baihui is located on the top of the head just posterior
to the midpoint of the skull on the midline. There
is a depression which can be felt.
In this particular position, it is Zhongchong,
at the tip of the middle finger that is accessing
the point. Dr. Usui's notebook indicates that this
point may be accessed with Laogong in the palm of
the hand.
Baihui is known as the hundred meetings because
it is the gathering point of all the Yang Qi of
the body and therefore has a powerful effect on
regulating Yang in the body.
It is the connecting point between the physical
world and the metaphysical world.
In Chakra theory, this is the location of the Crown
Chakra.
The main action of Baihui is to raise Yang which
it does quite powerfully. For this reason it is
recommended that Baihui be activated with some caution.
In Qi Gong practice for example, Baihui is sometimes
seen as the Upper Dantian. Usually the Upper Dantian
is located between the eyebrows and is often called
the third eye, or the 6th chakra in Chakra theory.
According to ancient writings Heaven, Earth and
Man are the three powers. Baihui accesses Heaven.
Earth is accessed through the soles of the feet
by Yongquan (pronounced yong kwan) (Kidney 1). Xuanji
(pronounced tsuan gee), the 21st point on the Ren
Channel is located at the throat, is man. The energy
of Heaven can be better accessed by opening up Baihui.
The energy of Earth can be better accessed by opening
Yongquan, on the foot, and a Human is seen as the
bridge between the two expressing through Xuanji.
This is one view.
In Qi Gong practice, Because Yang has a natural
tendency to rise, it is highly recommended that
one cultivate the Qi of the Lower Dantian (Qihai),
located below the navel, to become rooted in the
earth before attempting to cultivate the energy
of Baihui. Treating at Baihui, except for the express
purpose of raising Yang in the body, or without
a balancing treatment below, can have some disconcerting
effects. This is why some teachers avoid Baihui
as a treatment site.
Tianchong / Heavenly
Rushing
In this position, Laogong, the palm point, falls
naturally on Tianchong which is the 9th point on
the Gallbladder channel. This point is located about
a finger's breadth above the apex of the ear and
slightly posterior. A slight depression can be felt.
Tianchong is indicated for Migraine headache. It
is also indicated for all kinds of ear problems,
toothache, and pain in the gums. It is especially
indicated to calm the spirit when fright is the
main emotion. It is also indicated for a variety
of emotional and psychological disorders.
In general, this point will calm the middle, and
clear the head.
Sishencong, Four
Alert Spirit.
Sishencong (pronounced see shen tsong) is a grouping
of four points around Baihui. They are extra points
not associated with any channel. The main indication
for these points is 'calm the spirit.' Activating
these points is recommended for windstroke, epilepsy,
dizziness, mania-depression, insomnia. In the absence
of any disorder, the same caution applies to these
points as to Baihui.
