The Taoist Tradition:
An Introduction to Teachings, Schools, and Practices
This book provides a concise yet comprehensive introduction to Taoist thought and religion, treating them not as separate domains but as two inseparable aspects of a single tradition. Rather than privileging one over the other, it highlights their mutual interdependence and the ways in which they continually inform and shape one another. Read more on this book.

“Golden Elixir is another name for one’s fundamental nature. There is no other Golden Elixir outside one's fundamental nature. All human beings have this Golden Elixir complete in themselves: it is entirely realized in everybody. It is neither more in a sage, nor less in an ordinary person. It is the seed of the Immortals and the Buddhas, the root of the worthies and the sages.”
Liu Yiming (1734-1821)
