AB - While it may not seem to be suitable for self-cultivation, sexual practice(fangzong, 房中) is one of the most important areas of East Asian self-cultivation. It is the academic goal of this paper to reveal the characteristics of self-cultivation theory and its position in the history of self-cultivation theory. It is the practical significance of this paper to enrich the impoverished meaning of sexual intercourse, nowadays regarded as merely a vent of desire. In this paper, we introduced literatures related to sexual practice in general, discussed how the sexual practice embodied the idea of self-cultivation, that is, the monk's own change, showed how the sexual practice contributed to the development of East Asian self-cultivation theory, and revealed traces of Laozi philosophy reflected in women's bodies.
