This is the real thing, at last August 21, 2008 L J Slater (London, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is very sound teaching from a very experienced master of real, root- deep Taoist Chi Gung. It is a step by step manual, and if you have done any Chi Gung already, it puts everything in context both historically and in terms of explaining the why and how of each exercise. It is rather not about martial arts, but about inner strengthening, balance and mind/body/spirit harmonisation which is the basis of all true martial arts training, but also the key to good health and longevity generally. For the beginner, it provides the best possible start, (and there are contact details at the back for you to find a teacher, which you should do asap). Even if you just do the breathing exercises, the result is pretty life changing, as they restore energy levels and dissipate fatigue in a matter of weeks. If you follow this book in depth and read the Tao Te Ching at the same time, it all starts to come together, the one gives insights to the other.
Essential reading for all Tai Chi and Chi Gung practitioners. November 23, 2007 Mr. N. Cahill (UK) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Provides detailed and clear instructions for the complete energy gates Chi Gung system and makes it available to the new or average practitioner. Could be used by someone without access to a teacher but invaluable for those with access to a good teacher. The starting point of material in this book is what some teachers would have you believe is only available to the gifted few.
Good guide to Chi Gung April 24, 1999 20 out of 41 found this review helpful
An amazing book featuring the authors accounts of his extensive training under many of the finest Taoist masters in China. As far as I have got in the book (fairly early ) the excercises are fairly easy though I expect them to get harder later on. I enjoy using the standing meditationa and am looking forward to combining this with hemi sync to enhance the experience.
