Shaolin skill “Palm
of Iron Sand” (TIE SHA ZHANG) that can be also found
under the name of “Hand of Black Sand” (HEI SHA SHOW)
serves for strengthening of the external power of the
body and rearing the force YANG in it. To acquire that
skill, it is necessary to employ special methods and
means. Besides, special attention should be paid to
training QI, which will undoubtedly promote the
development and the internal improvement of the body.
We shall speak at
first about a secret recipe for hand training. It is
necessary to take 5 JINs (2.5 kg) of strong spirit, 10
JINs (5 kg) REN ZHONG BANG (Febrifuge
made of humane urine in Chinese traditional medicine),
and 10 JINs (5 kg) of white vinegar, mix it up and cook
it to the state of thick soup. Then cool it and cook
again. Each cooking must be within the exact time needed
for burning three aromatic sticks . After cooking for
the fourth time the thickness of the mixture becomes
suitable for use. Then small iron grains (iron chips)
should be added to the substance obtained. When doing
this, the mixture should be mashed with a wooden dolly.
In the beginning the consistency of the mixture
resembles mud. It is necessary to add iron chips into it
gradually until the substance becomes like a thick
medicine. The obtained substance should be put into a
canvas bag and place the bag on a wooden bench or stool ...

...Shaolin
skill “Palm of Iron Sand” possesses a huge power which
is comparable with the power of fire-arm. But if you try
to unite both forces into one, you can cause harm to
yourself, as you have to respect individual and unique
way of each force. That law is also true for the
society. After understanding it in time and being
convinced in huge curing ability of the ointment, you
will not use the skill “Palm of Iron Sand” maliciously.
You must always realize that you are able to break off
the thread of human life. Indeed, with the “Poisonous
Hand” you can cut the enemy’s head or cause serious body
damages.
