Do you know those times when you just know? When you see things – just as they are? This insight (an important word, nearly as crucial as ‘imagination’) is the epitome of Internal Chinese Alchemy, the practice of ‘fashioning a Golden Elixir’,the ‘center’ of our existence (in psychotherapy term, see Yijing). Perhaps it’s a spring morning walk, the autumn colours, the new moon, or rushing power of a waterfall, great river or mountain-range… Awakening to Reality is a link to a preview of Zhang Boduan’s famous alchemical eleventh-century poem… you can download it free…as a pdf, by clicking it’s title above. The whole book is available here. Happy Reading!
What a great picture!
