<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This collection of Taoist texts includes: <p/> - <i>The Taoist I Ching: </i>The classic "Book of Change" illuminated by the commentary of the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Taoist adept Liu I-ming. The first part of the book is the text of <i>I Ching </i> proper with Liu's commentary. The second part is Liu's commentary on two additional sections--known as the Overall Image and the Mixed Hexagrams--added to the <i>I Ching </i> by earlier commentators, believed to be members of the original Confucian school. In total, the book illuminates the Taoist inner teachings as practiced in the School of Complete Reality. <br> - <i>I Ching Mandalas: </i> A traditional program of study that enables students of the <i>I Ching </i> to achieve a deeper understanding of the meaning of this great classic. <i>I Ching Mandalas </i> presents diagrams as tools for whole-brain learning that help the student to visualize patterns and interrelationships among the trigrams and hexagrams of the <i>I Ching. </i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Thomas Cleary holds a Ph.D. in East Asian Languages and Civilizations from Harvard University. He is the translator of more than fifty volumes of Buddhist, Taoist, Confucian, and Islamic texts from Sanskrit, Chinese, Japanese, Pali, and Arabic.
