One of the earliest writings of Qigong as quoted in study above:

**The Jade Pendant Inscription on Xing Qi could be the earliest monograph on qigong in Chinese history. It reads as follows: “In moving qi, one breathes deeply and cultivates the authentic qi within. If the authentic qi is stored, it expands. When the authentic qi expands, it descends down to the Dantian (energy center in lower abdomen). When the authentic qi becomes stable in the Dantian, it will solidify. When the authentic qi is solidified it will begin to sprout and move to the root of the Du meridian. After the authentic qi has moved to the root of the Du meridian it will grow and rise up along the Du meridian. When it rises up to the top of the head, it will flow down along the Ren Meridian to the bottom of the torso. When the authentic qi rises up to the top of the head, it reaches heaven. Heavenly qi functions from above and earthly qi functions from below. Moving the authentic qi around the Du and Ren meridians freely lead to vitality and longevity while adverseness to this leads to aging and death.”**
