ZiJiu Method School ^™

Master Yan Ming Li was born in Shenyang, northeastern China. A person blessed with special talents since birth, he has been endowed with an extraordinary talent the like of which has never been seen before.

He possesses a precise understanding of how qi and blood interact and relate to the various vital organs inside our body, as well as how they relate to each other. Master Li teaches there are two life systems: the physical body and the spirit-self (soul). It takes both of these things to make up a human being. Master Li has discovered that when your body and spirit-self merge into one, and you reach a state referred to as “heaven, earth and man united,” you will be able to collect the natural energy of the universe -- what ancient texts refer to as the innate genuine qi. Genuine qi can help regulate the five viscera (zang) and six internal organs (fu). This in turn enables the body to mend itself, and allows you to enhance your health.

Through his studies and personal experimentation, Master Li has developed a complete Life-saving ZiJiu Method that we can practice to restore our inborn self-healing instinct. If practiced correctly, we will see improvement in a very short period of time. Ever since he was a child, Master Li has used this ZiJiu Method to teach people. People troubled by chronic or severe illnesses, or afflicted with terminal disease(s) have been able to make remarkable progress in a short period of time, and in many cases, completely restore their health after having practiced the ZiJiu Method. Master Li says, “Terminal disease is not absolute; it is only relative.” Since everything in the universe contains itself and its opposite (its yin and yang), loss and restoration of your health is also a two-way process. If you know how to mend your body, loss of health need no longer be an inexorable, one-way process. When medicine is no help, you need to turn to an internal solution. You can do this by developing your inborn self-healing instinct and use it. By doing so, you can restore your health and prolong your life.

Besides being blessed with the gift of self-knowledge and sight, Master Li also possesses a profound understanding of dao and metaphysics. Master Li is particularly well versed in the old Eastern classics and canons that describe the revolution and rhythm of heaven and earth, the co-existing principles of production and destruction, conception and transformation of life, and even the origin of life. The writings of which Master Li excels in teaching and interpreting include the Buddhist Sutras, the Daodejing, the Bible, the I Ching, the Internal Canon of Medicine by the Yellow Emperor, and Analects of Confucius. Master Li, who is capable of precisely interpreting the contents of these ancient writings with ease, is able to teach others how to understand what they would not otherwise be able to comprehend. According to Master Li, “The natural revolution of the universe – heaven and earth -- cannot be diverted by the will of man, and the rule of law is dao.” Additionally, “Men’s lives are like a miniature universes, because the operation of the five viscera (zang) and six internal organs (fu) and the circulation of blood and qi all correspond to the revolution of heaven and earth.” In other words, the rules that govern the universe (heaven and earth) are the same rules that govern mankind. These rules can be our teachers if we are willing to be its students. By observing this universal cycle, which constantly repeats itself at a fixed interval, we can also develop an understanding of the birthing, growing, reaping and storing capacities of plants, animals, and ourselves. By this observation, we will also become aware of the changes of yin and yang over the four seasons. This constitutes the dao of growth for all things and applies to human beings, as well. In other words, if we can coordinate the activities of our physical body and spiritual-self with the rhythm changes found in nature, then we will begin sensing the secrets to a healthier and longer life. Master Li uses plain and easy-to-understand language to explain these rules of nature. His intention is to help everyone understand the dao, and to introduce the practice of the Life-saving ZiJiu Method to as many people as possible to make self-healing a reality to all. Master Li is discouraged that modern people tend to neglect their health and pay scant attention to their life. Everywhere he looks, he sees people afflicted with the pains brought on by old age, sickness and death. Because Master Li believes in the existence of a Supreme Power that cares for every living thing, Master Li feels it is his duty to share his special talents with as many people as possible. His goal is to share his ZiJiu Method so others may find relief from their pain.

Master Li came to Atlanta, Georgia, USA in 1995. Even though busy with a new business venture, Master Li never forgot his promise to himself that he would share his knowledge with everyone who wanted to know. For many years, he has practiced ZiJiu, himself, stressing that practice and theory are equally important. He spends his own resources in order to continue offering ZiJiu lessons free of charge to the public. Fame and fortune is not what he seeks. He has assisted numerous students regain their health. As a result, he has also helped relieve the burden of many families whose senior members were struck with disease.

The first step in helping people is to help them understand their own body better. To maximize his efforts, Master Li founded the ZiJiu Institute in June 2000 in Atlanta with the support of many students and friends. Master Li severed ties with the ZiJiu Institute in 2009 to found the ZiJiu Method School to better focus on the Life Saving ZiJiu method and training that he developed. Now, Master Li hopes that through Zijiu Master School he can expand the scope of his teachings to reach all those who want it. Master Li does not want them to believe blindly. He also does not want students to reject ideas right out of the box and without grounds for doing so. Master Li emphasizes learning with an open mind and the best way to absorb the knowledge that we do not possess is with constant questioning and analysis. This school is a milestone for Master Li. Under his tutelage, Master Li encourages students to question, experiment, and analyz e what is being taught.

In 2009 Master Li founded the ZiJiu Method Shool to better focus on the Life Saving ZiJiu method and training he developed.
