There’s a great deal of misinformation around the Million Dollar Point, particularly in how it’s used to prevent ejaculation when working with Tantra for men. Commonly referenced in Taoist traditions, the point lies between the anus and the scrotum, and when activated correctly, it can support ejaculation control and the redirection of sexual energy.
However, this isn’t just a mechanical trick. And it is not something to be casually experimented with, especially for men carrying unprocessed trauma, congestion, or blockages in the pelvic region.
Misunderstandings About Ejaculation Control
Popularised by Taoist master Mantak Chia in The Multi-Orgasmic Man, the Million Dollar Point is part of the “three-finger lock” technique used to inhibit ejaculation and redirect life force energy upward.
Yet for many beginners, forcing this practice without proper preparation can be harmful. The body may not yet be ready to circulate sexual energy beyond the base, and applying pressure to force that process can create even more energetic resistance. In some cases, it can even cause physical injury, like ruptured capillaries or haematuria (blood in the urine).
