About the author

From a young age, I struggled to find the answers to what I think of are life's fundamental questions: Who am I? and Why am I alive? I found those answers for myself after much study and circumspection, culminating in strict fasting and meditation on top of Moak Mountain in South Korea more than 30 years ago.

What I discovered opened up a new life and a new world for me. Since then, I've sought to find ways to help others answer those questions for themselves, and live healthier, happier, and more fulfilling lives as a result. All of my work is focused on developing methods for this and sharing them with as many people as possible. I believe when enough people know their true nature and purpose and are empowered to live by it, the world will become a place of dreams; heaven will be expressed on earth.

This is the purpose and content of all of my books. I hope they enrich your life by reading them.

Human Technology was a first book I read by Ilchi Lee. (10 years ago :) Even though my English was not so fluent in that time, I could feel the content of the book was resonating with my soul. It got me interested in finding out more on the topics he shares about.... different exercises, acupressure, connecting to my soul & natural healing. I remember also finding myself feeling like I was understood and questions I've had inside of me were being answered. I felt hope from reading this book, full of empowering information for a human's existence & growth. This book is a good read!

Yeah, I really like this book! I pick it up and read quite often. Sometimes I have a question about something, like catching a cold, and I look thru the book and I find the points I can press, massage, or even put on essential oils, so that I feel better. Great and very useful book!

Very good book for beginners in to the teaching of Ilchi Lee. Simple notions of describing what can be conceive of as very complex meditation concepts for beginners.

[Alex Ponce · Rating 3 out of 5]

Un libro que comienza hablando sobre meditación, los elementos y otras técnicas orientales.

Tenía buenas expectativas de este libro sin embargo no logró alcanzarlas.

El autor tiene buenas intenciones al presentar sus ideas pero considero que no son aplicables en cuanto a todo lo que el promete en el libro.

[Keith · Rating 2 out of 5]

He feels we should be in charge of our own health and not rely on doctors. The book disclaims whether the techniques in it work or not, but claims to just be presenting them for whatever they are worth. (p 11). That didn't give me any confidence in the book.

Spurious at best, harmful at worst. Plenty of questionable and erroneous claims here, with self-congratulation all the while.

[Anna Sorokina · Rating 5 out of 5]

An online book reseller got things mixed up and instead of a book on the history of architecture, I got this. Let's read it anyway, I thought! Maybe this mix up was not so accidental, after all.

[John Thompson · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is a very helpful book for mindful and healthy living. It is says 'Toolkit' and it is like a how to handbook. Ilchi Lee writes and speaks often about living more naturally, using the body's innate capabilities rather than depending on someone else for our well-being. This book breaks it all down and presents in an easy-to-understand way how we can do this. This is a great book for anyone interested in a mindful, holistic lifestyle.

[Deanna Lee · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is my first favorite book of Ilchi Lee's. So very informational in a simple way that I can understand and practice the healing methods on my own! And of course, anything by Ilchi Lee really works! I felt so much energy after I tried the techniques he talks about: Acupressure points, Moxibustion (I tried both direct and indirect ways).

[Michela · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was the first Ilchi Lee book that I read, so it was the first introduction I had to energy principles and techniques such as moxibustion and bowing meditation. The book has an easy-going style and addresses many lifestyle issues in an empowering way.

[Martha Mckinley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I learned from "Human Technology" that I can heal my body by just following very simple but powerful principles. I learned that I am truly enough! I can systematically heal myself instead of depending on outside systems. I shared this book with all my friends & family, it is that valuable.

[Nicole Polyhronakos · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it!!! It outlined in a clear and easy to follow format the body's natural healing process based on Asian Healing Philosophies of Ki(Chi) energy circulation. Because I have a huge interest in self healing I will read this book again many times.

[Magdalena Szara · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a great tool for living and understanding life in more integrated way. I realized how self-developement is imprtant to upgrade myself and circumstances around me. I can be more in charge of my physiacal and mental state.

[John Fenton]

This book is full of useful and helpful methods (tools) to improve health. It covers such things as effective breathing, meridian stretching, circulation, how the body and brain interact and much more. It's easy to follow and has helpful illustrations all designed to help improve health.

I read this book at a time when I was really deepening my awareness of "energy." It is a good introduction to human life and healing from the perspective of Eastern Medicine.
