Physiognomy: The view of the spirit of Mai's face

What are the manifestations of God’s insufficiency?

The original text of "Taiqing Shenjian": Those who are insufficient in spirit seem drunk when they are not drunk, and always seem like a drunken sick man; they seem sad when they are not sad, and always seem worried; they seem asleep when they are not asleep, and just wake up; they seem to be laughing when they are not laughing, but suddenly seem surprised and happy; they seem to be sniffing when they are not full, and seem to be happy when they are not happy; they seem to be surprised when they are not shocked, and seem to be stupid when they are not foolish, and seem to be afraid when they are not afraid; their appearance is confused, and they seem to be infected with carbuncle; their expression is miserable, and they always seem to have lost something;. He is often in a panic, as if afraid; his speech is hesitant, as if hiding from shame; his body is low and droopy, as if he has been humiliated; his face is bright at first but then becomes dim; his speech is fast at first but then becomes slow. All of this is said to be due to insufficient spirit. Those who lack spirit are often imprisoned and wronged, and if they are officials, they will lose their positions.

[Summary in plain language]: If one is not energetic enough, one may appear drunk even when not drunk, just like one who has drunk too much; one may appear sad even when not worried, and often feel anxious for no reason; one may appear sleepy even when not asleep, just like one who has just woken up; one may smile even when there is nothing to be funny, as if something surprising has happened; one may look angry even when there is nothing to be angry about, look happy even when there is nothing to be happy about; look surprised even when there is no surprise; look like an idiot even when there is no dementia; look afraid even when there is no fear. Such a person has a confused appearance and behavior, as if he has epilepsy; his expression is sad, as if he has lost something; he looks as if he is afraid of something, and is in a trance and panic; his voice is soft and incomprehensible, and he hides as if he is shy; his appearance is short, as if he has been insulted. Or a person's complexion may be bright at first, but soon become dull, and words may come out quickly but soon become unable to speak again. These behaviors are manifestations of God’s inadequacy. People who lack spirit are often prone to imprisonment, being wrongly accused, and even if they hold an official position, they can easily lose it.

The influence of spirit and complexion on people's destiny

Essence is the origin of human life, Qi is the driving force to maintain life, and Spirit is the embodiment of life. There is a close relationship between essence, qi and spirit. The reason why people are human beings is mainly because they have essence, energy and spirit. Only after there is essence can there be spirit, and only after there is spirit can there be form, and only after the form is complete can the complexion be distinct. There is a poem in the ancient Chinese physiognomy book "Tai Qing Shen Jian" which says:

What people are endowed with is spirit, with fire as the spirit and water as the essence.

Fire is hidden in the heart and the heart represents will. Only when the essence is ready can the spirit be born.

Only when the spirit is born can the form be complete, and only when the form is complete can the color become bright.

It is known that color is born from shape, and qi has its own shape following sound.

It is better to have bones than to have form, and it is better to have spirit than to have bones.

Having spirit is like having energy, and spirit is strong in spring.

Most people are endowed with spirit, and their spirit is like oil and people are like lamps.

When the mind is at peace, the essence will naturally be strong; when the oil is clear, the lamp will be bright.

When sleeping at night, the heart is quiet; when sleeping during the day, the eyes are alert.

Sometimes there is turbidity in the clear, and sometimes there is clarity in the turbidity.

Moreover, the graceful demeanor is carefully hidden, and the strength becomes stronger as one sits and concentrates for a long time.

Such a person is qualified to be in charge, but it is common for him to be frivolous and shallow.

[Summary in plain language]: The reason why people become human beings is because of the existence of essence and spirit. Fire is the spirit and water is the essence. Fire is hidden in the heart. Only when one’s will and essence are sufficient can one have spirit. The spirit takes shape only after it is born, and only when the shape is complete can people see the complexion clearly. Therefore, color is born from form, and qi becomes tangible and can be discussed along with sound. Generally speaking, it is better to have good bones than a good shape, and having good bones is not as good as having spirit, and having spirit is not as good as having good energy. This is because the energy of the dry spirit is abundant in spring. Spirit and energy to a person are like oil and a lamp. If spirit and energy are like oil and the person is like a lamp, then the spirit will be at peace and the energy will be full, and the oil will be clear and the lamp will be bright. If a person sleeps soundly at night and has alert eyes during the day, sometimes you will find a dullness in his handsomeness, and a handsomeness in his dullness. If his manners are elegant and cultured, and he sits still for a long time, he will surely achieve great things. Those who are frivolous and shallow are ordinary people.
