"An elegant and comprehensive critical edition of the Dao De Jing." â?A KIRKUS ReviewThis book examines one of the worldâ?Ts most enduring and influential literary works through the timeless art of qigong. In his words, Lao Tzu (or Laozi), author of theA Dao De Jing, embodies qigong principles, advocating the cultivation of mind and body. Only when we know qigong can we know Lao Tzuâ?"and only when we know Lao Tzu can we know theA Dao De Jing. Lao Tzuâ?Ts writing has been read, translated, and discussed around the globe. It deals with principles that transcend time and culture. That is why this ancient text has been reimagined countless times in books on business, relationships, and parentingâ?"but never with a focus on the art of qigong. This makes theA Dao De Jing: A Qigong InterpretationA unique and indispensible. Many chapters in theA Dao De JingA purely talk about qigong, especially the practices of regulating the body, breathing, mind, qi, and spirit. Dr. Yang, a renowned author, scholar, and martial artist, devoted decades to researching and writing this book. He interprets and analyzes the 81 chapters of theA Dao De Jing. His commentary will bring new insight, inspiration, and depth to your understanding of Lao Tzuâ?Ts wordsâ?"and to your qigong practice.

It is about the Wayâ?"the path before us, in qigong and in life, where what you achieve comes through your own understanding.
