It is an intensive practice and the following is the description as to the personal experience and phanomena practitioners will come through when in the course of the practice.

1) 1 - 7 day: Feel very tired for the beginning 3 to 4 days, but much saliva arise continuously, red complexion, less sleep, the warm feeling of qi arises in every parts of the body, feel light with the whole body and the brain is clear and more clever than before, Qi goes through channels and vessels for all of them is opened up gradually, feel so healthy that a strange serene happiness arise in its own course and practitioners naturally conclude that general people could not ever have the chance to experience such happiness for just one minute in the worldly life. Really something is happening but it cannot be described in detail. The symptoms of the diseases begin to disappear unconsciously.

2) 7 - 15 day: the feeling of qi is so strong that the whole world seems to be becoming a hot sphere constantly running in its own course. Practitioners' view towards the world will change completely for they gain so much progress both in physical and mental aspects and they know another inner world begin to present itself. Really practitioner cannot know how to describe it for only the personal experience can tell all. The symptoms of the diseases disappear a little further, and you may feel amazed at the progress and may wonder how it gains, etc.

3) Above 15 days: unimaginable things begin to arise and true heart, true medicine, mysterious pass, etc, begin to come on the scene. The inner world start to have brilliant golden light that gradually drives away the darkness. Looking into Lower Dantian the brilliant golden sphere comes up and presents its happy brightness to reach very deep of darkness. Very strange phamonena present themselves continuously. We cannot describe all, and practitioners will gain much more if they really follow the teaching.
