ABSTRACT

)ore than merely *rain+neuroplasticity, heart+to+heart imprint sealing HHI"- Chan Ding completely changes the

normal *rain traits and regenerates a ne *rain ith superior self+healing capa*ilities for various physical, psychological

and mental ailments& Differing from the mind+*ody intervention in most meditation techni.ues, Chan Ding is e/clusively

heart+dominant, more correctly, *rain dominated *y heart& $y activating the ten+mailuns system in Chan Ding, practitioners

disclose the uni.ue *rain functioning scheme, documented in Diamond "utra, for connecting physical entity to spiritual

entity& In the process of *rain reformation, three important mailuns play the crucial role& Chan0in mailun inside the third

ventricle creates poerful field to harmonie all neurons in the *rain into a tran.uil *rain& 2hiHui )ailun at corpora

.uadrigemina ena*les the physical *ody to *e in tune ith nature& %a3an )ailun at hypothalamus elicits the pure egoless

compassion ith great *liss& Chan Ding ith tri+mailuns resonance effectively universalies all *rain neurons to construct a

detached  *rain and evo#es photoelectric potence of *rain neural netor#&

This paper for the first time reveals the intrinsic mechanism of e/clusive *rain reformation through HHI" Chan

Ding& Chan+Ding EE4 electroencephalograph- of the *rain cultivated *y tri+mailuns resonance reveals rather persistently

focalied and stationary cortical inter+regional interactions particularly in the central+frontal midline region&

 Proposition 1: ChanXin Resonance Harmonizes all Brain Neurons

Chan Ding is the important scheme for connecting ith spiritual entity andrealiing the macrocosmic realm of 

life& To cultivate the spiritual poer, or Gshen in TC), the li*eration of the earthly *rain and mind is essential& The term

Gearthly is used to reflect the deeply rooted traits of the *rain *eing *ound *y the time+and+space perception as ell as the

sensory and intellectual aareness of physical orld&:ccording to Cosimo Urgesis clinical studies on 88 neurosurgery

 patients =!(>, selective damage to left and right inferior posterior parietal regions induced a specific increase of 

self+transcendence& Nevertheless, Chan Ding *ased on a more natural and intrinsic scheme leads to modulations of neuralactivity in frontal+central and temporal+parietal regions for launching for macrocosmic realm and transcending e/periences&

The core mechanism relies on the mailuns resonance ith ChI& $y intensively continuous focuson Chan0in, an e/clusive

 photoelectric energy surges from the third ventricle and propagates throughout the entire *rain to harmonie all the *rain

neurons in the ay that *rain *ecomesmore tran.uil and pure at every moment& This process of *rain reformation

su*stantially changes not only the physiological functioning of the *rain *ut the mental, emotional, and psychological

traits& Practitioners gradually reach the state of internal mental serenity ith *lissful spirit all the time& The upgraded *rain

stays in the Chan+Ding state all the time, yet, e/hi*its remar#a*le creativity and superior mindful attention, *esides their 

ultimate compassion and euphoria&

To investigate the effect of such intensive Chan0in vitaliation, e analyed the mass centers C  x, C  y, C  z - of *rain

The asymmetry of S is one of the main advantages over the other nonlinear measures such as the mutual
