Editorial : The study of the human mind became a science 200 years ago in the Occident and most of the theories contradict each other. Psychology is looking for unifying models, but it is still in progress and rarely fits with clinical reality. 4000 years ago, the Daxuan system developed a clear view of the mind and its functions, with a clinical and practical reality. This book is about this incredible system. -- Cyril Joannes, clinical psychologist, psychotherapist and teacher at Paris University, Paris XIII With my grasp of the French language being rather poor I was very happy to see that Singing Dragon had published Serge Augier's first book on the Da Xuan tradition in English. It is a real skill to be able to present ancient teachings in a modern way without losing their essence; Serge Augier more than accomplishes this and gifts the world with a great introduction to a complete and authentic tradition. -- Damo Mitchell, author of The Four Dragons: Clearing the Meridians and Awakening the Sp
The teaching and practices of the ancient Daoist tradition of Da Xuan have been kept secret for generations. In this ground-breaking book, Serge Augier, the current inheritor of the Da Xuan system, presents this unique approach to Daoism and reveals the basic principles and theory behind the practice of Da Xuan.

He explains theory and practice in clear, easy-to-understand terms and explores the deeper reaches of Daoist internal alchemy in a way that gives access to practitioners of all levels to the necessary knowledge.

This is typical of this manual. It was not lost on me that his treatment in Abu Ghraib, as awful as it was, wasn't as bad as that experienced by many prisoners held by American troops in that same terrible place, and in Guantanamo.
It was also fascinating that both Israelis and Palestinians considered him "one of them" after what he had been through. True this book is outdated but the issues in it a far from it. The diagrams are the clearest and most detailed I have seen and are in abundance throughout.. Very informative on a rarely covered subject. Reading "Forty Days" made me realize that there are people in the world who hurt others just for the fun of it. If you find first hand accounts of life in this period interesting - Boswell's biography of Johnson, the diaries of Pepys, you will find thi
