Описание: In the TAOIST SHAMAN, Master Mantak Chia and Kris Deva North explain the shamanic principles of the Taoist Medicine Wheel, how it is oriented on the Five Elements rather than the Four Directions, how it relates to the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac and the trigrams of the I Ching and how it aligns with the Eight Forces of the Pakua.
Описание: "...an amazing tale, told in a fast-paced and entertaining style." -- Publishers Weekly This authorized biography of contemporary Taoist master Wang Liping (1949-), an 18th generation transmitter of Dragon Gate Taoism, tells the true story of his apprenticeship in Taoist wizardry, as well as the specialized body of knowledge, mystical wisdom and ritualized practice accumulated and refined over eleven centuries. The book opens with a seemingly chance encounter with three Taoist elders that changed Wang's life forever when he was a young boy. What follows is a philosophical quest in a coming-of-age tale like no other, playing out in mountainside temples and remote reaches of China. Wang's story parallels that of the Dalai Lama, as--like Tibetan Buddhists--Dragon Gate Taoists identify, raise and train specially chosen youngsters to become the holders, guardians and transmitters of their ancient, esoteric spiritual wisdom. While few of us will become spiritual gurus like Wang, his story speaks clearly and concisely to modern readers who are on their own "chosen paths," seeking their own forms of self-cultivation, enlightenment, wisdom and a life of greater harmony and truth.

Описание:
Most commentators imagine contemporary China to be monolithic, atheistic, and materialist, and wholly divorced from its earlier customs, but Kenneth Dean combines evidence from historical texts and extensive fieldwork to reveal an entirely different picture. Since 1979, when the Chinese government relaxed some of its most stringent controls on religion, villagers in the isolated areas of Southeast China have maintained an "underground" effort to restore traditional rituals and local cults.

Описание: Working with excavated texts as well as other early Chinese writings often neglected by scholars, this study reveals the clear and powerful outlines of a historical trajectory centered on the Daodejing that does not easily fit into the category of religion or philosophy but, by virtue of their fundamental non-separability, transcends both.The book closely examines the genetic relation between early Daoist bodily cultivation and the Daodejing’s philosophy of the Dao. It begins with an exploration of the ancient excavated texts of the Laozi from Guodian and Mawangdui to understand the early Daoist matrix of bodily cultivation and their relation to the Daodejing’s ideas concerning being and nothingness, and permanency versus temporalization.It then examines the Han Dynasty Heshang Gong Commentary to the Daodejing and its transformation of the teachings of the Daodejing into a political philosophy grounded in spiritual cultivation. It closes with an analysis of the writings of the Wei-Jin Daoist, Ge Hong, who describes a hidden tradition of Daoist mountain reclusion that continues to maintain the genetic relation between the Daodejing’s philosophy of Dao and the systematic practice of the early Daoist program of bodily cultivation that he identified with its teachings.

Описание:
The Dao of Translation sets up an East-West dialogue on the nature of language and translation, and specifically on the "unknown forces" that shape the act of translation. To that end it mobilizes two radically different readings of the Daodejing (formerly romanized as the Tao Te Ching): the traditional "mystical" reading according to which the Dao is a mysterious force that cannot be known, and a more recent reading put forward by Sinologists Roger T. Ames and David L. Hall, to the effect that the Dao is simply the way things happen. Key to Ames and Hall's reading is that what makes the Dao seem both powerful and mysterious is that it channels habit into action--or what the author calls social ecologies, or icoses. The author puts Daoism (and ancient Confucianism) into dialogue with nineteenth-century Western theorists of the sign, Charles Sanders Peirce and Ferdinand de Saussure (and their followers), in order to develop an "icotic" understanding of the tensions between habit and surprise in the activity of translating.
The Dao of Translation will interest linguists and translation scholars. This book will also engage researchers of ancient Chinese philosophy and provide Western scholars with a thought-provoking cross-examination of Eastern and Western perspectives.
