The Empty Vessel, Summer 1998
This is an interesting and enjoyable work that celebrates and explores the names of taiji movements. . . . . The aim here is not to give any definitive meaning of the words or names, says the author, but only to explore possible meaning. Letting go of this aim is necessary because both words and names can be interpreted in many ways and on many levels -- at least as many as there are facets to Taiji.
Taiji Quan, like so many other aspects of Taoist cultivation, can be practiced on many levels. To understand and play with the meanings of the movements can be both informative and fun! In this case both the author and the calligrapher have worked together to create a delightful interweaving of fact, fancy and erudition to inspire and enlighten taiji practitioners everywhere.
Book Description
This book shows how Chinese calligraphy reveals the deeper meanings - mysterious or playful - found in the names of taijiquan movements.
