highly recommended

The ancient Taoist text that forms the central part of this book was discovered by Wilhelm, who recognized it as essentially a practical guide to the integration of personality. Foreword and Appendix by Carl Jung; illustrations. Translated by Cary F. Baynes.A Helen and Kurt Wolff Book

Truly A great Read

The translation of the book is more than worth the price. With the commentary and explanation of the terms it exceeds the price paid. The subject matter and the commentary by Jung makes it pricless. I am familiar with many meditation styles and i must say this is a gem. I would recommend that before this work is done one has trained several years in the magical arts, the worker should at least be over thirty and has a family.Also a working knowledge of chi kung or tai chi should be had. Otherwise the treasure gained will not be as grand or the work never begun properly.

The Secret of the Golden Flower: A Chinese Book of Life

This book interprets Tao in the words and mind of western culture with amazing clarity !
Its the best I have read with out losing the reader with concepts and subject matter that is difficult to comprehend with out it being explained poorly which other books written about Tao have a habit of doing .
I personally think that other authors have used the saying Tao is unexplainable with words as a way to justify there crappy interpretations and writings then again that could be said about every religion on the planet ! but I wont say that at risk of offending some religious nut as even Jesus didn't get away with that with out coping nine inch nails.

The Secret of Life

Some people struggle with this book. The reason? It's not an intellectual read. You have to practice the method to understand it. At the same time, you have to master each technique, one at a time. Only when you master Technique A, can you move on to Technique B. It's like a treasure hunt; you can only get to Point B after you reach Point A. This frustrates some people. But that doesn't deter from the underlying value of the method, or its truth, that it does contain the secret of life

I spent two years breaking it down. Sure , I became frustrated. Sure, I doubted, but in the end I understood that this method was part of the Buddha's practice. If He'd learned and mastered these principles and passed them on to us, there must have been a reason: that, with effort, we, too, could master the science of Deciphering the Golden Flower One Secret at a Time.
