For the first time, the great depth and diversity of Taoist spirituality is introduced in a single, accessible manual. Taoism, known widely today through the teachings of the classic Tao Te Ching and the practices of t'ai chi and feng-shui, is less known for its unique traditions of meditation, physical training, magical practice and internal alchemy. Covering all of the most important texts, figures, and events, this essential guide illuminates Taoism's extraordinarily rich history and remarkable variety of practice. A comprehensive bibliography for further study completes this valuable reference work.

Taoism, the set of philosophical teachings and religious practices rooted in the understanding of the Chinese character Tao, or "The Way," was founded by the Chinese philosopher Laozi in the 6th Century BCE, whose work, the Tao Te Ching (The Book of the Way and its Virtue) laid the philosophical foundation for the religion's beliefs. This volume starts, as it should, with a detailed chronology of Taoism and its relationship both to China and other teachings.

Taoism For Beginners: The Philosophy Of A Happy LifeA Friendly Beginners Guide On Taoism And Taoist BeliefsTaoism teaches the basic principles of living a long and healthy life. The Taoist principles help us understand the inseparable nature of the self and the nature of the cosmos, to participate in the natural flow of events. To gain knowledge about Taoism is the cultivation of a thought process of growth, self-exploration, transformation, and to link our inner self with the surrounding world. This is the way to engage ourselves in the realm of the Tao. What are the implications of Taoism in our daily life? Can we apply the principles of Yang and Yin in our personal life? If we wish to enter the realm of Tao, we need to have the willingness to accept the natural flow of activities and events. If we are aware to the ever-changing facets of nature, we will have the strength to create harmony. If we aren't aware, we will be affected by self-conflicts due to the circumstances. The first principle of Taoism is to develop an awareness of the natural things and understand these are interconnected as a part of the whole universe. The universal viewpoint states that everything is Tao. Good fortune is Tao, misfortune is also Tao. We must not pit one side against another, but urge ourselves to determine a relationship between the opposites. There is a popular idiom, "there are two sides of a coin." Following this principle, you must appreciate both situations; it helps us embrace the situation. People become empathic as they understand the other side of the experience and imagine how they would react in a similar situation. Secondly, you must recognize and embrace the natural flow of change. People struggle often as they cannot accept failure. If we recognize the cause of the failure, we will try to overcome the weaknesses and are able to solve problems at the early stages. The natural wisdom enables us to act appropriately. If we harmonize with the dynamics of nature, we will learn to let go off our interpretations and stereotypical thinking. Nature comprises of opposites. It does not practice discrimination, moral judgments that usually are the cause of several health disorders. By not clinging to one polarity, an individual is able to view a crisis situation as a growth opportunity. You generally develop an optimistic view of life. Cooperation with the ultimate unity of opposites enables people to accept the various facets of human existence that follow the path of the Tao. Do you experience imbalances in your personal life? Are you a workaholic? Do you feel balanced emotionally? Do you have time to spend with yourself?If you are able to answer these questions, you may require a change in your life. Try adopting the Taoist principles and experience a long and healthy life.

Isabelle Robinet's Taoist Meditation is the first and only scholarly study to discuss the ancient Mao-shan Taoist tradition of visionary meditation while, at the same time, helping to clarify the little understood relationship among the early Taoist classics, the Buddhist tradition, and the later Taoist religion. Most importantly, Taoist Meditation is a pioneering study that fully and accurately describes the unique visionary cosmology, bodily symbolism, astral journeys, internal alchemy, meditational techniques, and ritual practices of the Mao-shan or Shang-chi'ing (Great Purity) movement--one of the most important foundational traditions making up the overall Taoist religion. This English version of Robinet's work is more than a simple translation.Taoist Meditation presents a significantly expanded edition of the original French text which includes up-to-date bibliographies of Robinet's work and other Western scholarship on Taoism, additional illustrations, and a newly compiled list of textual citations.
