*In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), "The 3 Treasures" are spoken of as central concepts for our well-being - a long and happy life.
The 3 Treasures are:
Jing - our original energy.
Qi - the energy that circulates and is used in daily life.
Shen - our soul or "wisdom mind".
When these three are strong and in harmony, it is said that a person is in "health beyond danger" and is on the path to living a long, wise and happy life. This is the foundation, according to the Taoists, for being able to express our full potential as human beings.
One way to look at it is to compare our being to a candle;
Jing is the wax itself - the foundational energy that nourishes the other two.
Qi is the wick - that which makes it possible for the light to burn.
Shen is the light or flame itself; that which illuminates, spreads light and warmth around, and determines how brightly it burns**.**
