I pinch the text of his three fingers with my left and right thumb, or I always hold his thumb with my four fingers and lean between my waist and abdomen with my left and right hands. " Taoism believes that this gesture has the function of promoting the unification of heart and qi and avoiding evil and poisonous qi.
