T'Ai Chi Ch'Uan and Meditation

Master Da Liu has written a profound book that I will refer to again and again. I believe this was the last book he wrote and it's content builds on his previous written works which i would highly recommend to anyone interested in tai chi, the I Ching, and mediation. Like his other books, Da Liu's approach to health is practical and yet deeply spiritual. He only teaches what he had direct experience with. Take a walk with this taoist master who was clearly not interested in being a "guru", but rather deeply concerned for people's total health.

It is a great read even if you like me practicing Tai Chi for a long time. Plenty of additional information I was not aware.

The Best!!!

Da Liu presents a solid background of Chinese history on the evolution of Tai Chi and meditation, as interlocking techniques for bodily health and spiritual growth. He talks about energy in relation to individual Tai Chi movements, as well as providing information on the flow of energy through the systems of the body. The book was published when he was 80, but has a fluid, modern feel to it. I recommend this for those who do Tai Chi and practice meditation, or are just interested in the connection between them.

Superb book that clearly explains the ideas and makes them practical.
