Practical Taoism
Transl. by Thomas Cleary. 81 pg., 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" paperback.
This extraordinary collection of teachings and commentaries illuminates
the many profound mysteries of inner alchemy, one of the most important
dimensions of the Taoist tradition. Practical Taoism is a collection of
writings on the traditional alchemical texts, compiled by a seventh-generation
master of the Northern Branch of the Complete Reality School of Taoism known
as the Preserver of Truth. Although these techniques are described in the
sourcebooks of ancient Taoism, they are often couched in cryptic symbolic
language, making it difficult for today's seekers to put these into practice. |
