Product Description
A guide to the practice of Inner Alchemy, which allows you to control the energies of your inner universe to better connect with energies of the outer universe br /br /#8226; Teaches the essential first-level meditations in Taoist practice, also known as Fusion of the Five Forces, for self-healing and emotional and spiritual development br /br /#8226; Shows step-by-step how to remove negative emotions from the organs in which they are lodged by neutralizing and transforming the negativity back into positive energy br /br /#8226; Includes basic and advanced-level meditations br /br /Fusion of the Five Elements is the necessary first step in the Taoist practice of Inner Alchemy, in which one learns to control the generation and flow of emotional, mental, and physical energies within the body. It is a series of meditations designed to locate and dissolve negative energies trapped inside the body by making a connection between the five outer senses (experienced through the ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and tongue) and the five major negative emotions (anger, hate, worry, sadness, and fear). When the body is cleared of negative energy, universal chi energy flows freely and productively, nourishing both body and soul.br /br / The practice is divided into two parts. The first works with controlling the forces of the five elements on the five major organs of the body by learning the elements#8217; effects upon each other and how to balance and utilize these energies properly. The advanced Fusion exercises then show how to channel the greater energies of the stars and planets to strengthen internal weaknesses and crystallize positive energy. By #8220;fusing#8221; all the different kinds of energy together, a harmonious whole is created--the key to manifesting an Immortal existence.

 Opening Clearing the Gateways to Higher Consciousness February 19, 2008
Cynthia Sue Larson (San Francisco bay area, CA USA)
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Mantak Chia's book, "Fusion of the Five Elements" provides readers with powerful meditation and energy working tools for transforming the top five negative emotions (anger, impatience, anxiety, depression, and stress) stored in five of our body's main organs into their most positive counterparts (kindness, love joy, openness, courage and gentleness). While the basic Taoist principles behind this healing process may seem straightforward to some, the techniques themselves are refreshingly unique and memorable, such as breathing the purest form of gentleness into the shape of beautiful deer with antlers, for example. Chia explains that since the original Taoist animal offspring utilized in energy work for clearing the five elements / organs might seem rather unusual in this day and age, it is possible to substitute other symbols in their stead. br / br /The delightful surprise in "Fusion of the Five Elements" is the way the range of feelings from each of five major organs (liver, heart, lungs, kidneys, spleen) is described, along with marvelous tables and illustrations that accompany the energy work meditations. I was very positively impressed with the associations provided with how good awareness between each of these five primary organs and the associated opening (eyes, tongue, nose, ears, mouth) can help to reduce the various temptations of each of these areas. Readers familiar with the concept of the five elements will find much to appreciate in this book, as many of the advanced exercises have the capacity to benefit all energy practitioners, from beginners to the most advanced. br / br /"Fusion of the Five Elements" covers Chia's concept of creating pearls that form the energy body extremely well. Anyone wishing to continue on with Chia's other books will appreciate the clarity of his words and illustrations which are devoted to describing how one can best create, maintain, and control one's chi body as it evolves to his highest form.
 Another Excellent Mantak Chia book December 4, 2007

5 out of 5 found this review helpful
br /This is a very excellent introduction to the fusion system. I admit, I really didn't start to get much out of the fusion system until I read Fusion 2 Cosmic Fusion, but this book is essential. I don't recommend reading this until you have practiced the microcosmic orbit and Iron Shirt 1 for some time, however, Iron Shirt works much better after the Fusion of Five elements have been practiced. br / br /I rate this 4 stars because it has all the information necessary for the introductory practice, although I subtracted 1 star because I feel as if there could have been a little more information about the physical internal movements that mirror the visualization and 'funnels' the movement of 'chi'. Still, everything you need is still there. Don't let the esoteric sounding nature of the book turn you off, the elements, animals, and everything else are an important identification/visualization system to get something very real working. br / br /IMO, Mantak Chia books are the best out there. br /
An intermediate energy work text October 27, 2007

This is an excellent book, which will allow you to delve further into the energy work techniques that Chia teaches. To get the most out of this book, you need to do the exercises. I think it's important to slowly integrate each additional step after you feel confident with learning the prior step. I will say that I've already noted some positive results for myself.
