Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治精氣不固. 蓮花蘂ㆍ蓮子ㆍ芡仁, 等分爲末. 金櫻子煎膏, 和丸梧子大, 空心, 鹽湯下三十丸. 一月見效, 卽不走泄. 久服精神完固, 能成地仙. 《入門》

Translation

Treats the essential qi not secure. Lotus stamen, lotus seed and euryale seed in equal parts, powdered. Cherokee rose fruit decocted to a paste, bound into pills the size of a firmiana seed, thirty taken on an empty stomach with salt decoction. In a month the effect is seen, and there is no more running and leaking. Taken long, the essence and spirit are whole and firm, and one can become an earthly immortal. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Jeong)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Three seeds and a fruit, all astringent — the lotus twice over, the euryale, the Cherokee rose — and nothing else. 金鎻, the gold lock, is what the formula is meant to be, and the chapter's 3.5 says why the essence is to be locked: it is the body's treasure and is not to be spent. The claim of earthly immortality is the Immun's, and the chapter records it without comment. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
