MessageSinging Ocean,
I got that quote from the post above made by The Cessation. Also, thank you for bringing up and giving sources so that everyone can benefit from this discussion.
Let me clarify your comment about me accepting only emptiness and denying the body or any other forms of intelligence...
Emptiness meditation (and all underlying varieties of mind stillness) is a method used by many to stop clinging to mental, physical and other forms of sensations. We don't accept anything, we don't deny anything. All the teachings of Lord Buddha, all the sutras, teach you the methods how to do it. But those are just mere methods. Nothing more. You attach to them and you are in a mental prison that takes years if not lifetimes to get out. I belive same should apply to any other form of cultivation including Taoist alchemy.
If you have any more questions or comments, please do ask.
Please forgive me that some of your questions are not answered, for some of them should not be asked.
Metta.
