Introduction to Leifa

Leifa, a Taoist magical power, can be used to summon wind and thunder, subdue demons, pray for sunshine and rain, drain waterlogging and stop drought, also known as "five thunder methods". The Leiyujing in the Nine Heavenly Jade Qing Da Fan Zi Mi Du once explained the role of thunder: "The thunder is the master of misfortune and happiness in heaven, and it is the balance of all things. In charge of people, the company will kill, the prosecution will be closed, and management will be produced. From emperor to emperor, from emperor to emperor, it is impossible without thunder. Big is life and death, small is honor and disgrace, and there is no cure without thunder. " [1] The Leifa orthodoxy appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty. This method combines Neidan with Wisdom Fofo Agbo mantra, which not only emphasizes Neidan's cultivation, but also means of praying, fasting and cursing. Emphasis is placed on the cultivation of inner alchemy and the use of spells. According to Yuan Tingzhi, a disciple of Wenqing Wang, a Taoist priest in the Northern Song Dynasty, in A Talk with Xu Chong Miao Tong Wang Shichen, he once asked, "How can I get excited?" Wenqing Wang replied: "Those who are thunderous must be urgent and must not act rashly." . For example, when the Privy Council issues an order to a certain department, flatterers must abide by it. When Yuan Tingzhi asked about the mystery of Lei Fa, Wenqing Wang replied: "The change of Lei, no matter how far it is. God moves with the sky and is angry with the spirit. The son looked in a trance, made a thunderbolt and was very excited. It is a wonderful use to have everything in one's life for two, two, three and three times. From poverty to death, you can go anywhere. [2] His theory that "Qi is essential to God" shows that Lei Fa is closely related to the use of Qi.

Since the Northern Song Dynasty, Leifa has been regarded as a powerful and widely used spell in Taoism. Song Dynasty Gao Dao Sa Shoujian said that he had the guidance of a master, so he could: "drive away thunder, serve electricity, pray for rain and sunshine, cure evil spirits, sway locusts, refine ghosts, give water, and be disgusted with things, such as answering the valley." [3] And he also stressed that internal refining is directly related to the application of the thunder method. For example, "(Raffa) doesn't ask him, I can ask him." . The husband's five elements are rooted in two elements, which are divided into five elements. People can gather five elements and transport five elements into five thunder, then thunder method is the innate way, and Raytheon is my god. Isn't it just like saying yes to yes and yes to God? [4] In addition, another important work of Lei Fa, Wei Qing Road and Law Hub, also contains: "Three talents are one ear. Heaven uses a pen, earth uses a pen, yin and yang use a pen, wind and thunder use a pen, human breathing uses a pen, and Tao uses a pen. Those who do good know that God is God and God is God. I can't think of it outside, inside and outside. Therefore, those who improve integrity and apply it to the law use my true feelings to conform to the nature of heaven and earth. Therefore, booing is sex and rain, and laughing is thunder. With a general, God will be conscious, evil will be controlled, and ghosts will be self-sufficient. Heaven and earth, a shadow into the light, ever-changing, it is not me. [5] Leifa has its own classics, spells, symbols and tricks. Its symbol is cloudy with the image of thunder and thunder, which is called "Thunder Turn". Different methods of thundering are mainly included in Taoism and Taoist classics, such as Daofa Hui Yuan, Wei Qing Danjue and Fahai Zhu Yi.
