In Taoism, we have quite a number of methods to create the Cleansing Water for certain usage.

Today, I will like to introduce one of such methods to you all, for those who need it or interested in trying, one self just needed to follow the procedure that being written here, most probably one self will succeed in the creation.

Here it goes:

Prepare a Glass or Cup of Yin Yang Water 陰陽水 (mixture of Cold & Hot Water or Water collected at Mid-night and Early Morning after Sunrise), hold the Glass or Cup with your left hand, using the Dao-finger Formation 道指/法指 – the Formation that you can see on Zhang Gong Sheng Jun's statue (張公聖君), place your hand in front of the Heart.

Then, Light 3 Stick of Incenses, hold the Incenses with Right-hand and the burning tip Pointing Up and turn the whole body to face North.

After turning to the Direction, make a Bow and then recite the Offering Incense Mantra aka Zhu Xiang Shen Zhou (祝香神咒) and then, call-upon Xuan Tian Shang Di (玄天上帝) to provide the blessing on the Creation of the Cleansing Water.

After making the request, recite The Taoist Golden Brightness Mantra aka Jin Guang Shen Zhou (金光神咒) to gather the Positive Energies from the Three Realms to gather at the Spot.

Upon finish reciting Jin Guang Shen Zhou, point the Tip of the Incenses to the Cup or Water-surface, do not allow the burning tip to touch the edge of the Cup or the surface of the Water.

Once ready, recite The Cleansing of Surrounding Mantra aka Jing Tian Di Shen Zhou (淨天地神咒) to allow the Energies to being enhanced into the Yin Yang Water.

After the Mantra is being recited, point the Incenses Up again, make a Bow to the North and then, place them into any Urn.

Place the Cup of Water at the Altar.

And the Water is ready to be used on any issues or events.

So when to use the Water?

1 Before moving into a new House.

2 Before removing of any Spiritual Objects, such as Statues, etc.

3 Cleansing of an Area before Joss-papers are being burnt for Deities.

4 Cleaning of the Deities Altar.

5 Washing of the physical Body of someone who got possessed by Negative Entities

Things to Take Note:

Never drink such Cleansing Water, cos it will cause one self to force-out All Negative Forces and Energies, which can cause Extreme discomfort and seriously ill.
