THE THREE BEING-FOODS, THE PHYSICAL BODY OF MAN AND BEING FORMATION By Professor Dr. Tan Man-Ho (An excerpt from the original work, Real World Views, Book 13, by Professor Dr. Tan Man-Ho entitled, "Principles of the Logico-Psychophilosophical Method in its Application to Problems of the Real World," March 1982 - September 1983 Discourses, Chapter 4, Section B, C and D: "The Three Being-Foods, the Physical Body of Man and Being Formation," pp. 166~174)
B. THE THREE BEING-FOODS
1
It is already common knowledge to esoteric circle
that man consumes 3 kinds of being-foods ‑ ordinary food (coarse foods and
drinks), air (oxygen in most cases) and impressions (sight, sound, touch,
taste, smell and images). They are called being foods because every
living being requires them. So, they are foods for the living beings.
2 The trouble with the foods of man is that most of them have to be eaten after they are dead for a long time. Such foods are no longer alive and lack being-psyche hydrogens. The degree of "rottenness" is high, the quality and quantity of their being-intelligence or being-vivid-aliveness is almost none. Yet, man eats such foods! Even the use of preservatives and canning (and freezing too) does not save the gradual decrease in the level-of-being in such foods although it can still contain the rotting process through these artificial food preservatives, freezing, canning, special cooking methods and other sealed containers. However, scratching their heads, they do not know how to contain the level of being in the food. Such ordinary solid and liquid 1st being-foods, often beautified with colorful, nice looking flavors and tasty ingredients are found in large bulk at the laujinggong restaurants for which many three-brained hethormen human beings patronized as faithful customer automatons.

Fermentation is the opposite of rotting and the
fermenting germs are different from the rotting germs. Fermenting
process that is anti-rotting is actually good for the digestive system,
while rotting germs which can often accumulate in large quantities are very
harmful to the body. If our body is to absorb rotting foods we are
sure to land ourselves is serious trouble. Rotting food in the
digestive system intoxicates the blood and the whole body, aging it and
ultimately leads to diseases. Wine has the power to relax muscles, thoughts and
feeling tensions. A little wine is God for the body.

The basic essence-block of an organ is eaten by
man for building and repairing the same organ in him. To eat the liver
of a lower animal is to provide the liver elements to the perfection of our
own liver. To over-provide the body with liver-elements is to cause
difficulty to the body in getting rid of the "extras", and if it is not
removed it will intoxicate and disharmonize the body.
C. THE PHYSICAL BODY OF MAN
1
The switch is turned on during the conception of
the sperm cell (Yang) and the ovum (Yin) to form the zygote (Third Force) in
the mother's womb. Once this happens, the seed of the man-machine is
set into motion, passing through many stages of development and ultimately
becoming more and more damaged. Finally, it just switches off by
itself (dead). At the first MI-FA retardation (sexually mature
period), an opposite sex is required to beget new offspring octaves.
At the second TI-DO retardation (death), psyche hydrogens are liberated from
the cocoon of the physical body. These substances enter the higher
dimensions to be distributed and coated into various beings on earth itself
and also, to the other planets and moons. These psyche hydrogens are
re-extracted in a cosmic digestion octave found in the various cosmoses.

Your legs must be able to do more than just one
function called walking. Have more faculties and possibilities for
them, else they will remain as the Crippled-Children. This idea is one
of the ideas in seeking a method for developing the possibilities of the
physical body of man. One of the least
relaxed parts of my body, after much relaxation exercises, is still my two
legs. They are tense and pretty stiff. They do not move smoothly
or in a relaxed way. There are muscle bounds too. In principle,
this is where I should start the work
on my physical body. Almost all my thigh muscles are bound, especially,
at the back of the thighs such as sartrius, tensor fascia lata, retus
femoris, vastus medialis and vastus lateralis. The basic problem here is: How can I break these muscle bounds? At present, I use the following methods i)
Relaxing the muscles through
free motion ii)
External stretching of the
muscle by maintaining the stretch iii)
Conscious and intentional
straightening of the muscles without external assistance iv) Using isometrics
The legs must be made to relax from the toes up to
the lumber region. Develop them in a relax way as you move them in
circles and straight lines through all their initial possibilities of
movements. Only by constant repetition at this stage for a long time
can you transform them (the legs) to perform more advanced level movements. Massage with ointment all existing muscle bounds.
Reflex and acupressure all the tender points and if possible use moxibustion,
acupuncture and prana to break down these obstacles for the proper
development of the legs. Relax any tension, anywhere and anytime you
chance notice it. All this explains the methods and principles of the
work on the legs.

Remember that the seven terminals of our
Great Cosmic Tree
are the easy target of becoming-deprived-of-heat-and-vital-energy making
them cold and weak. The solution to this is always to keep the
terminals warm. The seven terminals are: i)
the upper most part of the head ii) the tip of the nose iii) the penis (for man) iv) the five toes of left leg v)
the five toes of right leg vi) the five fingers of left hand vii)
the five fingers of right hand
If you have vital energy, you radiate physically.
If you are dull, you must immediately build up your vital energy.

The abdominal muscles can be developed like any
other muscles. It can be relaxed and contracted. Its size and
strength can be developed. The physical body changes little. Thinking
about developing the physical body, is already the first step in the body
work. Feeling it is much more.
5
Man has "breasts" which is a result of the
presence of lesser yin in the greater yang. Woman has clitoris that is
a lesser yang in the greater yin. The clitoris is the penis in woman –
it is therefore the lesser yang. To exercise the gum and teeth, the principle of
pressure should be applied. This method is possible through the
assistant of the jaw movements. The conscious sending of the blood, Qi, force,
air, impression and information to the remote region of the body and to
every part of the body, leaving no regions untouched is a half the milestone
to physical perfection. The yellowish sputum in the blood stream is
responsible for backache, muscular stiffness and rheumatism. Once
disposed off these symptoms disappear.

Good postures are acquired in the three areas -
classical mental posture, classical emotional posture and classical physical
postures. Although, these terms might sound strange to you, they are
never strange to the fourth way students. Classical postures indicate
better developed muscles
than that from other undisciplined reactionary development of the body.
7
Pride of the beauty of the physical body hinders
inner development. People who are beautiful physically are often too
proud of their bodies. As a result, they neglected inner development.
8
Eyes are very important organs for extracting raw
impressions (Do
48).
Spectacles are opium of the eye muscles. Foods that taste good for the
mouth are like impressions that are impressive to the eyes. Music that
is nice to the ears is like pleasure sensation that is nice to the erotic
zone. The same goes to fragrance.
9
Degenerative or negative postures should always
be shoved out of the body by being aware of them, struggle against them and
by intentional and conscious working on generating new healthy postures. Only relaxed hand standing can last long. The
body cannot balance itself in a tense handstand.
D. BEING FORMATIONS
1
Being formations such as being-cat, being-dog and
their innate conflicts, being-fish-for-being-human and what not are the so
many mind disturbances for the being-brains-in-being-human. All have
beings and they occur in different scales. Being-human is well-known
in mastering the art of creating mechano-beings and much more.
2
The potentiality of greater issuing in the
process of being formation is the so-called
something.
In nothing, there is no issuing but the issuing of something reduces
something into nothing and changes the something into something else.
This something is the eternal matter that in motion creates the changing
being forms that in turn are reflected by the brain as the movement of
something into nothing and vice-versa. Make

conscious. There is a being-something, a piece of impression food in
the mental mouth awaiting digestion. Once digested it is distributed
and become something else.
3
Both you and I are further development of the
human seeds. But owing to the kundabufferic perturbation of our psyche
leading to wordiness of the misty language, we can hardly notice ourselves
as a being-formation. These are the creatures of weird becomings!
Once in your memory it is seldom forgotten.
4
We must understand that when a "thing" is
created, whether in the psychological or physical fields, it never vanishes
into thin air without passing through its general development from
existence, maturity to extinction even though it may be for a second.
Every living entity has its own
voice and
direction. It is in-built into every living being-formation. It
is its property. The organism strives to express itself in
accordance with its own set of essence and personality. The expression
is the aura or the behaviors.

The
twelve gates of the human body and also most being-formations are noted
here: Orifice type 1. Two
for the eyes 2. Two for the ears 3. Two for the nose 4. One for the mouth 5. One for the anus 6. One for the reproduction organ 7. One for urination Surface type 8. Skin for touch 9. Sweat pores The entry gates are: 1. Nose 2. Mouth 3. Eyes 4. Skin (for touch) 5. Ears The exit gates are: 1. Nose 2. Mouth 3. Sweat pores 4. Anus 5. Urinary orifice 6. Reproduction orifice
