purification with light
The central channel is the channel of the individual mind, from which the aura of the immune system radiates. The luminosity and strength of the aura reflect the condition of the mind. As processes of change and social engineering accelerate, it has become rare to encounter a person with a truly luminous aura. Everywhere we look, we find people in a dim state; worried, fearful, and unhappy.
The aura is the first line of the immune system. Its dimming mirrors the state of both the immune system and the mind. Illness, rather than health, has sadly become the most common condition of humanity.
Ultimately, the luminosity of the aura comes from the radiance of the Spirit, known in Taoist tradition as the Shen. When the Shen dims, there is a tiredness that cannot be cleared no matter what you do. Mental fog, forgetfulness, weakened immunity, difficulty overcoming challenges, dizziness, restless sleep, and negative moods all arise when the Shen is depleted.

The purpose of this purification intensive is to clear the heavy dimness affecting most people in this Iron Era. Where there is Light, there is no darkness.
During these five days, you will learn different practices to purify the mind using the power of Light. In the second part of the retreat, we will explore how to help others rapidly clear darkness from the central channel, aura, and energy points.
As part of the tradition, we will also consult the I Ching for guidance for the coming year, with interpretation and discussion taking place during the retreat.
I hope to see you in December!

Juan Li begon zijn pad van zelfontwikkeling in 1970 na zijn afstuderen aan Brooklyn College in New York. Zijn fascinatie voor het I Ching leidde hem naar een levenslange studie van innerlijke groei en bewustzijn.
Tijdens zijn jaren in Nepal (1971–1978) verdiepte hij zich in meditatie, Droomyoga en Mantra’s bij Indiase en Tibetaanse leraren. Daarna reisde hij naar Japan, waar hij van Takizawa Sensei leerde het I Ching te gebruiken als gids voor yoga, en bij Sifu Kim Ho Chu Tai Chi en Kung Fu beoefende.
Een belangrijke mijlpaal was zijn ontmoeting met Daoïstisch meester Mantak Chia in 1982. Samen schreven ze twaalf boeken, waaronder The Inner Structure of Tai Chi.
Sinds 1996 richt Juan zich op het begeleiden van westerse studenten via zijn pad van I Ching Dao — een weg van helderheid, bewust leven en dienstbaarheid aan anderen. Zijn werk helpt mensen emotionele en spirituele blokkades te doorbreken en hun innerlijke rust te hervinden. Hij legt de nadruk op een heldere geest, bewust leven, en het helpen van anderen.
Vandaag de dag woont hij in Spanje, waar hij leraren opleidt die zijn werk voortzetten in Europa, Azië en Amerika. Zijn workshops en lessen helpen mensen richting en balans te vinden in een snel veranderende wereld.
