Product description
About the Author
From the age of twelve, Waysun Liao studied with a wandering Taoist and in a Taoist temple until he became a full Taichi and Tao master. Considered one of the world's foremost authorities on traditional Taoist wisdom and Chi arts, he is the founder and master of one of the oldest Taichi centers in North America, located in Oak Park, Illinois. He is one of the few remaining Tao masters carrying and transmitting the ancient oral traditions concerning the power of Tao, and shares his wisdom with students across the world.
Master Liao is the author of several books, including Nine Nights with the Taoist Master, Chi: Discovering Your Life Energy, and the acclaimed T'ai Chi Classics, which has been translated into nine languages. In addition, he has compiled a complete Taichi learning system on DVD, preserving the ancient temple teachings on moving meditation, the Tao, and internal energy development.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, inspiring and clear
Reviewed in Brazil on 28 April 2013
Verified Purchase
This book was very inspiring to me.
I love Taoism and find Lao Tsu most inspiring, but apart from a translated book of Tao Te Ching commented by Brazilian Huberto Rohden and some info on the Internet, I had never read a book on TAO before. This was my first one.
It begins clear and very interesting. Then it goes on a sort of stable part where it gets a little too repetitive. After that, the book ends very well.
I like this book very much and find the examples most relevant and easy to understand. The author is good in exemplifying abstract things using normal daily situations.
I will buy other books from this author and recommend this one to those who are willing to understand a bit of Tao Te Ching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for the spiritual seeker of ANY tradition

Excellent book for the spiritual seeker of ANY tradition.. taoist, hindu, christian, muslim, shaman... this transcends religion and is just about the highest goal of any religion... this book will also open your eyes to modern toxic society and why we are so lost these days... this is THE book that made me see tai chi as a complete spiritual system! Not just for health or fighting but all 3.. i sought teachers in my area but was pretty dissapointed that none of them even beleived how profound their art could be... as fate would have it, i met a teacher of waysuns lineage and have to admit that there is something to their "temple style tai chi" that i could not find in any other style i studied.. not to say this is the only guy that has it. Just that it is very rare even with the big name family lineages...

5.0 out of 5 stars The most treasured book I personally have ever read

Master Liao covers everything you need in order to journey on the path back to Tao. To say I am grateful is an understatement. He has done our world a great help by putting together these ancient teachings in a modern way. For those who sincerely desire to find their way back to Tao, this is a great book to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very open insights from a gifted man
Reviewed in the United States on 1 April 2011

Having looked for a long time on authentic, from the source writings about meditation and the Taoist way, this was a great find. This book is clear, cutting and it feels like each word is purposfully placed, and it is written by a living authorative Taoist figure in the west. It answered some questions, raised some more, and is challanging as it depicts what a connection to the power of God requires and what that creative power enables. With everything else i have read and experienced it certainly helps provide greater understanding as to where i am now and what it takes to move on. It helped to also read the deluxe study edition of the authors book, Nine Nights with a Daoist Master, to grasp his concepts and way of thinking.
