月蚀，宜救活人，除殃、活万人，与天同功（天不好杀，圣人则之。不好杀者，是助天地长养，故招胜

长时间用眼会耗伤血液，长时间卧床会耗伤气，长时间站立会损伤骨骼，长时间坐着会损伤肌肉。凡是深谋远虑、强健过度都会伤害人体，忧愁愤恨、悲哀过度都会伤害人体，喜乐过度都会伤害人体，愤怒郁结不解都会伤害人体，急切追求愿望都会伤害人体，担忧祸患都会伤害人体，寒热调节失当都会伤害人体，阴阳交接不当都会伤害人体。凡是房事必须依据导引等养生术进行。如果能避开这些伤害之事并掌握调和阴阳的方法，这就是长生不死之道。极大的快乐会使气机飞扬散乱，极大的忧愁会使气机阻滞不通，过度使用精气会导致气力衰竭，过度用眼会导致目盲，过度睡眠会导致心烦意乱，贪吃美食会导致腹泻痢疾。世俗之人只知道贪图五味的美味，却不知道元气是可以服食的。圣人知道五味会引发疾病，所以不贪求；知道元气可以服用，所以闭口不言以涵养精气。如果唾液不吞咽，就像大海得不到滋润；大海得不到滋润，津液就会匮乏。因此知道服食元气、饮用醴泉（指口中津液），是延年的根本。洗澡没有固定规律是不吉利的，夫妇一起洗澡是不吉利的，刚洗完澡以及醉酒饱食后、长途跋涉归来极度疲倦时，都不可行房事，否则会生病，务必谨慎。男子睡觉不要头朝北躺卧，这会使六神不安，多愁善忘。不要在井边停留或活动，这是古今的大忌。如果在距离十步内的墙根下，不要顺着墙壁坐卧，以免被风吹袭，引发癫痫疾病。不要怒目圆睁长久注视太阳或月亮，这会失去目明。凡是出大汗时，突然脱衣不慎，容易患偏风、半身不遂。刚洗完澡，不能让头部对着风，否则不幸会患上大风病、刺风疾。受寒归来，不要靠近火源烤脸，否则会形成痫证、起风眩。凡是出汗时，不要把脚悬在床沿外，久而久之会形成血痹、足重腰疼。凡是脚部出汗，不要立即入水，否则会形成骨痹，也会形成遁疰（一种慢性消耗性疾病）。长期憋尿，会导致膝盖发冷兼成冷痹。凡是吃热物出汗时，不要对着风，否则会引发疰头痛，使人眼睛干涩流泪。凡是想睡觉时，不要唱歌咏叹，这不吉利。睡醒起床后，不要大声说话，这会损耗人气。凡是飞鸟撞到人身上死的，不可食用，如果鸟嘴张开及羽毛下有疮口的，更不可食用。凡是用热的淘米水洗头，再用冷水冲洗，会形成头风。凡是人睡觉，床头不要安放火炉，这会导致人头重、目赤鼻干。凡是躺下后，床头不要点灯，这会使六神不安。冬天要温暖双脚冻凉头脑，春秋两季头脑和双脚都要冻凉，这是圣人的常规法则。凡是刚哭完就吃饭，就会形成气病。晚上睡觉不要蒙头，妇人不要坐在灶台上，这是大忌。凡是吐唾沫，不要吐得太远，吐得远就会形成肺病，使人手重、背疼、咳嗽。凡是人梦魇，不要点灯照看，一定会导致梦魇而死，应在暗中呼唤才吉利，也不可靠近前及急促呼唤。凡是人睡觉，不要张口呼吸，久了会形成消渴症，并失去血色。凡是早晨起床，不要用冷水洗眼洗脸，这会导致眼睛干涩、失明、流泪。凡是行走途中，触受热邪，遇到河水不要洗脸，否则会生出乌翳（黑斑）。人睡醒忽然惊醒，不要饮水再睡，否则会形成水痹。凡是时令病刚刚痊愈，汗解之后，不要喝冷水，这会损伤人心腹，无法平复恢复。凡是空腹不可闻到臭尸体的气味，进入鼻子会使人致病。凡是想要看死尸，都必须先饮酒及咬蒜，以辟解毒瓦斯。凡是小儿不要让用手指指月亮，否则耳后会生疮，这叫作月蚀疮。捣碎蛤蟆末敷贴即可痊愈，并且其他疮疡也不会再生。凡是产妇不可见有狐臭的人，这能使产妇发生肿胀。凡是人睡觉不用窗户底下，这会使六神不安。凡是睡觉，春夏季节想要头朝东，秋冬季节头朝西，有所利益。凡是男子，饥饿时想要小便应坐着，饱食后想要小便应站着，这样能使人无病。凡是人睡觉，想要屈膝侧卧，有益于增加人气力。凡是睡觉想要多次翻身。小声谈笑要尽量少，说话声音不要太高亢。春天想要天黑才睡早起，夏秋季节想要接近夜晚睡早起，冬天想要早睡晚起，都有益处。虽然说早起，不要在鸡鸣之前；晚起，不要在日出之后，冬天天地闭塞，阳气潜藏，人不应当劳作。出汗发泄阳气，会损害人体。刚洗完澡，不要对着风，否则会失语。不要用湿着头发睡觉，这使人患头风、眩晕闷痛、脱发、面肿、齿痛、耳聋。湿衣服及汗衣服都不可久穿，否则会生疮及患风瘙痒。老君说：正月初一，在中庭面向寅地再拜念咒说：“（某甲）年年受大道之恩，太清玄门，愿还（某甲）去岁之年。”男女皆念三遍自咒。常行此道，可延年。（玄女有清神之法，淮南王崇尚祭祀灶神的规矩，都想体合真灵，护卫真身）。《仙经秘要》中说，常存念心中有一股气，大如鸡蛋，内红外黄。可辟除众邪，延年。想要驱除众邪百鬼，常存想其为炎火如斗，煌煌光明，则百邪不敢侵犯人，可进入瘟疫之中。晚上睡觉常存想赤气在外，白气在内，覆盖身体，辟除众邪鬼魅。老君说：凡人求道，不要犯五逆、六不祥，有触犯者凶险。大小便向西，是一逆；向北，是二逆；向太阳，是三逆；向月亮，是四逆；仰视天空及星辰，是五逆。夜里起来裸体，是一不祥；早晨起来嗔恚生气，是二不祥；对着灶台骂詈，是三不祥；用脚踢火，是四不祥；夫妻白天交合，是五不祥；盗窃怨恨师父，是六不祥。凡人早晨起来，常说善事，上天会给予福报。不要说“奈何”、不要歌啸，名叫请祸。千万不要上床躺着唱歌，凶；开始睡觉趴着床，凶；饮食趴着床，凶；用匙箸敲击盘子上，凶。司阴之神，在人人口左，人有阴祸，司阴之神禀告上天，上天则考校人魂魄。司杀之神，在人人口右，人有恶言，司杀之神禀告司命之神，司命之神记录，罪满即杀。二神监视口舌，只向人寻求非安，可不慎言吗？舌头是身体的兵器，善恶由此而生，所以道家所忌讳。食用玉泉的，能使人延年，除百病。玉泉，就是口中的唾液。鸡鸣、平旦、日中、日晡、黄昏、夜半时，一日一夕，共七次漱玉泉吞食之，每次吞食都要满口咽下，可延年。头发干枯、牙齿骨骼衰败、指甲筋脉枯竭，千次梳头，头发不会变白；早晚叩齿，牙齿不会龋坏；指甲不频繁修剪，筋脉不衰替。人常想要多照镜子，叫作存形，形体与精神相互依存，就是这个意思。如果是矜持容貌颜色自我玩赏，不如不照。凡人常在正月一日、二月二日、三月三日、四月八日、五月一日、六月二十七日、七月十一日、八月八日、九月二十一日、十月十四日、十一月十一日、十二月三十日，只要常在这些日子取枸杞菜，煮作汤沐浴，能使人光泽，不病不老。月蚀时，宜救活人，除殃、活万人，与天同功（天不喜欢杀戮，圣人效法它。不喜欢杀戮的，是帮助天地长养万物，所以招致胜福）。好梦可以说出来，恶梦默不作声，就能养性延年。
Prolonged viewing damages blood (Xue, Blood), prolonged lying down damages Qi (Qi, Vital Energy), prolonged standing damages bones (Gu, Bones), and prolonged sitting damages muscles (Rou, Muscles). All deep thinking and overexertion harm the body; excessive worry, resentment, and sorrow harm the body; excessive joy harms the body; unresolved anger harms the body; eager pursuit of desires harms the body; constant anxiety about misfortunes harms the body; improper regulation of cold and heat harms the body; and improper sexual intercourse harms the body. Sexual intercourse must be conducted according to Dao Yin (Guiding and Pulling) techniques. If one can avoid these harmful practices and master the art of harmonizing Yin and Yang (Yin-Yang, the complementary opposites in nature), this is the way to immortality. Extreme happiness causes Qi to fly and scatter; extreme sorrow causes Qi to become blocked; excessive use of Jing (Jing, Essence) leads to exhaustion of Qi and strength; excessive viewing leads to blindness; excessive sleep leads to mental restlessness; and greed for delicious food leads to diarrhea and dysentery. Ordinary people only know to crave the five flavors, but do not know that Yuan Qi (Primordial Qi) can be consumed. Sages know that the five flavors cause disease, so they do not crave them; they know that Yuan Qi can be taken, so they keep their mouths closed to preserve it. If saliva is not swallowed, it is like the sea not being moistened; if the sea is not moistened, Jin Ye (Body Fluids) will be deficient. Thus, consuming Yuan Qi and drinking Li Quan (Sweet Spring, a metaphor for saliva) is the root of longevity. Bathing without a fixed routine is inauspicious; bathing together with one's spouse is inauspicious; after just bathing, or when drunk and full, or returning from long travel while extremely fatigued, one must not engage in sexual activity, as it will cause illness; one must be very cautious. Men should not sleep with their heads facing north, as this makes the Six Spirits (Liu Shen, the spiritual aspects of the mind) uneasy and causes melancholy and forgetfulness. Do not linger near wells; this is a great taboo in ancient and modern times. If there is a wall within ten steps, do not sit or lie against it, as wind blowing on you may cause epilepsy (Dian Xian). Do not stare angrily at the sun or moon for a long time, or you will lose clear vision. When sweating heavily, do not suddenly undress carelessly, or you are likely to suffer from hemiplegia (Pian Feng) or paralysis of half the body. After a new bath, do not expose your head to the wind; otherwise, you may unfortunately contract severe wind diseases or piercing wind disorders. When coming back from cold exposure, do not face a fire source, or you may develop epilepsy or wind-induced dizziness. When sweating, do not hang your feet off the bed edge; doing so for a long time will lead to Blood Bi (Blood Obstruction) syndrome, heavy legs, and lower back pain. When your feet are sweaty, do not enter water immediately, or you may develop Bone Bi syndrome or Dun Zhu (a chronic wasting disease). Holding urine for a long time causes cold knees and Cold Bi syndrome. When eating hot food and sweating, do not face the wind, or you may develop Zhu Tou Tong (wandering headache), causing dry eyes and excessive tearing. When feeling sleepy, do not sing or chant, as this is inauspicious. After waking up, do not speak loudly, as this depletes your Qi. If a bird flies into you and dies, do not eat it; especially if its mouth is open or there are sores under its feathers, do not eat it at all. Washing hair with hot rice water followed by cold water rinse causes Head Wind (Tou Feng). When sleeping, do not place a charcoal stove near your head, as this causes heavy head, red eyes, and dry nose. After lying down, do not place a lamp near your head, as this makes the Six Spirits uneasy. In winter, warm your feet and chill your head; in spring and autumn, chill both your head and feet; this is the regular method of sages. If you eat immediately after crying, you will develop Qi disorders. At night, do not cover your head while sleeping; women should not sit on the stove, which is a great taboo. When spitting, do not spit too far away, or you may develop Lung disease, causing heavy hands, back pain, and coughing. If someone suffers from nightmare (Yan), do not light a lamp to shine on them; this will surely cause death from nightmare. Call them softly in the dark for good fortune; do not approach closely or call urgently. When sleeping, do not breathe through your mouth; doing so for a long time leads to Xiao Ke (Wasting and Thirsting syndrome) and loss of blood luster. In the morning, do not wash your eyes and face with cold water, as this causes dry eyes, blindness, and excessive tearing. While traveling, if exposed to heat, do not wash your face in rivers, or you may develop black spots in the eye (Wu Yi). If you wake up suddenly from sleep, do not drink water and go back to sleep, or you may develop Water Bi syndrome. When a seasonal disease has just healed and sweat has resolved, do not drink cold water, as this damages the heart and abdomen and prevents recovery. Never smell dead bodies on an empty stomach; inhaling the odor causes disease. If you must view a corpse, drink alcohol and chew garlic first to ward off toxic vapors. Do not let children point at the moon with their fingers, or sores will grow behind their ears; this is called Moon Eclipse Sores (Yue Shi Chuang). Applying crushed toad powder heals it, and other sores will not grow. Postpartum women should not see people with fox odor, as it can cause swelling in the woman. Do not sleep directly under windows, as this makes the Six Spirits uneasy. For sleeping positions, in spring and summer, the head should face east; in autumn and winter, the head should face west, which is beneficial. For men, urinate while sitting when hungry, and stand when full, to remain healthy. When sleeping, curl your knees and lie on your side to benefit Qi and strength. Turn over several times during sleep. Speak and laugh softly; do not raise your voice. In spring, sleep late and rise early; in summer and autumn, sleep near nightfall and rise early; in winter, sleep early and rise late; all are beneficial. Although rising early is advised, do not rise before the rooster crows; although rising late is advised, do not rise after sunrise. In winter, heaven and earth close, and Yang Qi hides; humans should not labor. Sweating dissipates Yang Qi and harms the body. After bathing, do not face the wind, or you may lose your voice. Do not sleep with wet hair, or you will suffer from Head Wind, dizziness, hair loss, facial swelling, toothache, and deafness. Do not wear wet or sweaty clothes for long, or you will develop sores and wind-induced itching. The Old Master (Lao Jun) said: On the first day of the first month, bow twice towards the Yin direction in the courtyard and recite: "(Name) receives the grace of the Great Dao year after year, from the Mysterious Gate of Taiqing, I wish to return (Name)'s past year." Both men and women recite this three times. Practicing this regularly extends life. (Nu Xu had methods for clearing the spirit; King of Huainan advocated worshipping the Kitchen God; all wished to align with true spirits and protect true life). The "Secret Essentials of Immortal Scriptures" states: Constantly visualize a Qi in your heart, the size of a chicken egg, red inside and yellow outside. This wards off evil spirits and extends life. To repel evil spirits and ghosts, constantly visualize them as a bright, glowing fire like a dipper; then no evil spirit dares to invade, and you can enter plague areas. At night before sleep, visualize red Qi outside and white Qi inside, covering your body, to ward off evil spirits and demons. The Old Master said: Those seeking the Dao must not commit the Five Reversals (Wu Ni) and Six Inauspicious Acts (Liu Bu Xiang); violators meet with disaster. Urinating or defecating facing West is the First Reversal; facing North is the Second; facing the Sun is the Third; facing the Moon is the Fourth; looking up at the sky and stars is the Fifth. Getting up naked at night is the First Inauspicious Act; waking up angry is the Second; cursing the Kitchen God is the Third; kicking fire with your foot is the Fourth; sexual intercourse during the day between husband and wife is the Fifth; stealing from or resenting one's teacher is the Sixth. When rising in the morning, always speak good words, and Heaven will grant blessings. Do not say "What can be done?" or howl/sing, as this invites disaster. Do not sing in bed (inauspicious); do not sleep lying prone on the bed (inauspicious); do not eat leaning on the bed (inauspicious); do not strike plates with chopsticks/spoons (inauspicious). The Spirit of Yin resides on the left of the mouth; if one commits hidden evils, this Spirit reports to Heaven, and Heaven examines the soul. The Spirit of Killing resides on the right of the mouth; if one speaks ill, this Spirit reports to the Lord of Life (Si Ming), who records it; when sins are full, killing occurs. These two spirits monitor the mouth; one must be careful with speech. The tongue is the weapon of the body; good and evil arise from it, hence it is taboo in Daoism. Consuming Yu Quan (Jade Spring, i.e., saliva) extends life and removes hundred diseases. Yu Quan is saliva. At times of Ji Ming (Rooster Crow), Ping Dan (Daybreak), Ri Zhong (Noon), Ri Bu (Afternoon), Huang Hun (Twilight), and Ye Ban (Midnight), rinse and swallow saliva seven times a day. Swallow a full mouth each time to extend life. For hair depletion, bone/tooth depletion, and nail/tendon depletion: comb hair a thousand times to prevent graying; tap teeth morning and evening to prevent decay; do not cut nails frequently to maintain tendon vitality. Frequently look in the mirror, called "Preserving Form"; form and spirit support each other. However, if merely admiring one's appearance, better not to look. On specific days: Jan 1, Feb 2, Mar 3, Apr 8, May 1, Jun 27, Jul 11, Aug 8, Sep 21, Oct 14, Nov 11, Dec 30, gather Goji berry leaves, boil into soup, and bathe. This makes one radiant, disease-free, and ageless. During a lunar eclipse, save lives, remove calamities, and save ten thousand people, achieving merit equal to Heaven (Heaven dislikes killing; sages emulate this. Disliking killing means assisting Heaven and Earth in nurturing life, thus attracting great fortune). Good dreams can be told; bad dreams should be kept silent, which nourishes nature and extends life.
