Editorial Reviews

The Empty Vessel, A Journal of Contemporary Taoism, Summer 1999
Relaxing Into Your Being, Volume One of The Water Method of Taoist Meditation Series, is the first book that explains the essence and practical techniques of the Water Method of Taoist Meditation, originally alluded to by Lao Tse in the Tao Te Ching, 2500 years ago. The author is a long-time student of Taoism who studied in China for ten years. He is a lineage holder of the Water Method school of Taoism, under the teacher Liu Hung Chieh and has been studying meditation, internal martial arts and qigong for four decades.

Each volume is filled with breathing exercises and stories about the author's teacher, as well as the author's own experiences. The author obviously has studied intensely for many years and brings that experience and knowledge to bear on its subject.

The Great Stillness, Volume Two, presents moving meditation practices, sitting and lying down meditation practices, the inner dissolving process as well as how to dissolve blockages in your physical, qi and emotional bodies. Another extremely interesting section is on Taoist sexual meditation with both techniques and good explanations of the energetic aspects of Taoist sexual cultivation. The last chapter is on internal alchemy, another fascinating and important aspect of Taoist self-cultivation.

This is an important work. Taoism is a very old and vast compendium of teachings and practices. Students can choose from a wide variety of teachings, some of which are only now coming to the West. As more long-time practitioners of Taoism begin to share their knowledge and experiences with Western students we will all benefit.

Book Description
This first volume of The Water Method of Taoist Meditation Series explains the essence and practical techniques originally alluded to by Lao Tse in the Tao Te Ching, 2500 years ago. This knowledge has been passed down from teacher to disciple in an unbroken lineage to Taoist sage Liu Hung Chieh and the author. These teachings help us rediscover deeper levels of our inner being and are especially relevant in today's fast-paced, overstressed computer age. The energy practices revealed here are a fundamental part of this knowledge. These tools will show you the way to soften and release stress, maintain good health, calm your mind, heal disease, dissolve your obstacles to inner peace and directly experience Universal Consciousness.
