voidisyinyang Posted October 22, 2019 https://open.library.ubc.ca/media/download/pdf/831/1.0092419/1 It is translated as an excellent Ph.D. thesis - with analysis! This book is awesome - one of the best on Neidan. Very very fascinating! Thanks for the recommendation, as per a question/comment - and I responded as a blogpost: https://elixirfield.blogspot.com/2019/10/have-i-read-balance-and-harmony.html just scroll way down. So the pdf is "secured" - meaning no cut and pastes for commentary on the quotes. It would have to be "transcribed" - along with the original text. So better to just comment on the pdf directly - people can just go to the link (if they're interested in real Neidan, daoist alchemy training). Even though this book is almost 1000 years old - it has very clear analysis of the truth of reality. Whereas later books in the Song dynasty, etc. are not so clear - in my view. So the Yuan Dynasty is when the Complete Reality school was sought out by the Imperial rulers. One of the key points here is also one that I have emphasized - that the Wuji emptiness circle ALREADY has the taiji embedded within it. So I will transcribe that point. Quote As for O it is the "two emblems." O is the movement of yang. O is the stillness of yin. Hence my moniker. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voidisyinyang Posted October 22, 2019 Another great quote: Quote As for what the eye sees, we call them "forms." ....Taoist texts say, "What has form and what lacks form produce each other." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
