药门的修炼
药门弟子修炼的方法来源于上界药门的传承，其核心目的是为了更好的治病。药门诊脉的方式不同于传统中医，不用“寸、关、尺”的逻辑来诊脉，而是通过“气”。用气来找到身体中发病的位置和原因。同理，药门的治疗环节也是通过“气”来实现。因此，练气和采气就成为药门修炼的重要部分。
上界药门传承了独门练气方式，也是三界药门的统一练气法门。练气是药门弟子每日的必修课。每年都会由上界的佛菩萨带领药门弟子采气，采气的地点分别是大海、沙漠、高山、雪地。采气可以拓宽气道，让气融入身体，更好的为患者治病。
修心是药门修炼的重要组成部分。每日打坐是修炼必不可少的环节。一颗平静的心有助于治病救人和增强修为。药门弟子和有缘人的选择的重要标准就是看人的“心性”。药门的门内弟子也是从上界药门转世而来，帮助药门完成使命。药门的门外弟子和俗家弟子必须是心性好的修炼着。
The Cultivation of the Herbal Order
The cultivation methods practiced by the disciples of the Herbal Order are passed down from the celestial Herbal Order, with the core purpose of enhancing their healing capabilities. Unlike traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who diagnose pulse conditions based on the “Cun, Guan, Chi” positions, the Herbal Order relies on Qi for pulse diagnosis. By sensing the flow of Qi, they can pinpoint the location and root cause of illnesses within the body. Similarly, the treatment process of the Herbal Order is also accomplished through the manipulation of Qi. Thus, Qi cultivation and Qi absorption have become indispensable components of the Herbal Order’s cultivation practice.
The celestial Herbal Order has bequeathed its exclusive Qi cultivation method, which serves as the unified practice protocol for the Herbal Order across the three realms. Qi cultivation is a mandatory daily practice for every disciple. Each year, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from the celestial realm lead the disciples to absorb Qi at four distinct locations: the vast ocean, arid desert, lofty mountains, and snow-covered lands. This Qi absorption practice helps to widen the meridians for Qi circulation, allowing Qi to permeate the body thoroughly, thereby enabling the disciples to heal patients more effectively.
Spiritual refinement is another vital part of the Herbal Order’s cultivation. Daily meditation is an essential ritual in the practice. A tranquil mind not only facilitates healing and saving lives but also enhances one’s spiritual attainment. The key criterion for selecting the Herbal Order’s disciples and destined individuals lies in their spiritual nature. The inner-sect disciples of the Herbal Order are all reincarnated from the celestial Herbal Order, tasked with assisting the order in fulfilling its sacred mission. Meanwhile, the outer-sect disciples and lay practitioners must be individuals with pure and virtuous spiritual nature.
