To master the eight pluses, rise at dawn, sit up, straighten your spine, relax your buttocks, contract your perineal muscles, and conduct energy to your sexual organs. This is called producing moisture.
When foreplay is mutually satisfactory, and both want to do it, that is called knowing the right timing.
During intercourse, let your back be relaxed, contract your perineal muscles, and exert pressure downward; this is called accumulating energy.
Do not go in and out too rapidly, or with too high frequency; glide in and out gently and with control. This is called gentle moistening.
When you are going to get out of bed, withdraw while you still have an erection; this is called building up energy.
When about finished, breathe deeply, avoid agitation, gather energy and press it down, waiting in a state of physical calm; this is called maintaining fullness.
When finished, wash off; withdraw while still erect. This is called stabilizing the erection.
These are called the eight pluses.
