“The book introduces the complex theological texts, the different spirit realms, the sacred geographies. It covers Daoist medicines and alchemical practices. You have chapters on Daoist gymnastics and physical exercises, Daoist sexual practices, sleep, and dream practices. There is high-flying philosophy, as well as visualizing the stars and engaging with celestial journeys through your meditation. Most importantly for our purposes, it gives a sense of the breadth of the Daoist tradition.” Read more...
