In mineralogy, jade (from Spanish term piedra de ijada (first recorded in 1565) or 'loin stone'), from its reputed efficacy in curing ailments of the loins and kidneys.

Nephrite and jadeite (two kinds of Jade) were used by people from the prehistoric for similar purposes. Jade is tough. It is beautifully coloured and can be delicately shaped. Thus it was not until the 19th century that a French mineralogist determined that "jade" was in fact two different materials. The trade name jadite is sometimes applied to translucent or opaque green glass.

Jade is any of the carved-jade objects produced in China from the Neolithic Period (c. 3000–1500 BC) onward. The Chinese regarded carved-jade objects as intrinsically valuable, and they metaphorically equated jade with human virtues because of its hardness, durability, and (moral) beauty.

In China, A more accurate translation for this character on its own would be 'precious/ornamental rock'. It is seldom, if ever, used on its own to denote 'true' jade in Chinese; for example, one would normally refer to 'ying yu' (硬玉, 'hard jade') for jadeite, or 'ruan yu' (軟玉, 'soft jade') for nephrite. The Chinese names for many ornamental non-jade rocks also incorporate the character 'yù', and it is widely understood by native speakers that such stones are not, in fact, true precious nephrite or jadeite. Even so, for commercial reasons, the names of such stones may well still be translated into English as 'jade', and this practice continues to confuse the unwary.

Chinese people believe the original power source material could be store in Jade.

Material composition of the universe is, this is the basis of the original power generated.

Take the Jade, you can touch the universe power to fix the mind and body unwell.

Generally speaking, as long as they are substances that may arise on the original edge. Force, like air, like the siege around us.

Jade can supply the basic Qi or force to help us.

When the after life, especially after the sense of the original edge can be used by biology through the Jade. In some old Tao book, we can read how to use the original, and can clearly see the way the original use of force from jade.
