Immortals' Black Sesame Pill

Sinseongeoseungja-won

한글 신선거승자원  ·  Pinyin Shen Xian Ju Sheng Zi Yuan

神仙巨勝子元

Pill formula, bulk amounts: powdered; in spring and summer bound with refined honey, in autumn and winter with steamed jujube flesh and walnut flesh pounded to a paste, worked with a thousand pestle-strokes into pills the size of parasol-tree seeds; 70–90 pills swallowed with warm wine or salted water. The source adds that omitting the tianxiong aconite and substituting deer antler is also excellent. Note on modern practice: tianxiong (天雄) is a regulated toxic aconite; the source's own antler substitution is the modern default.

Clinical commentary 臨床

Twenty-seven ingredients and a season-aware binder — honey for the growing half of the year, jujube and walnut for the storing half. The chapter's most granary-like formula: nearly half its roster is seeds, essence stored in the plant's own densest form, gathered for a body that has spent its stores. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
