While this book gives a good overview of the microcosmic orbit in my opinion the sequel "awakening healing light through the tao" is much better. First and foremost this book doesn't explain the healing sounds- which are essential if you want to practice the microcosmic orbit. (At least that's what I've read on forums etc. )Plus at least for me this book seems really unstructured compared to the superior awakening healing light.
But then again awakening healing light might seem a lot "drier" so for someone who never read anything by Mantak Chia this is a good introductory book

A ground breaking book at the time that was on the cutting edge of bringing qigong to the general public. This book makes certain aspects of qigong approachable to the reader who is new to the whole subject. It just doesn't hit the mark for me in accuracy after going to acupuncture school to learn Traditional Chinese Medicine from the ground up.

I am currently reading this book. It is full of great, practical techniques for circulation Chi energy during meditation. So far, I give it my full seal of approval!

I'm enjoying this so far. The description of the Inner Smile is very good. The microcosmic orbit explanation is not as clear, but it can certainly be followed. For anyone who really wants to get familiar with these practices, I'd recommend an audio guidance. There are lots of them out there now by different teachers. That makes it much easier to concentrate on the practice itself, learn it quickly as you actually do it rather than read about it, and then internalize it to the point that you can do it automatically.
I haven't finished it yet.

His description of the microcosmic orbit is so detailed it feels almost impossible to hold that much info in your mind while still accomplishing the meditation. My one "wtf" was him constantly mentioning that energy can't pass through the top of the head without "cracking the skull open." I've definitely experienced energy going in and out of the top of my head with other modalities and my skull is still intact as far as I can tell. Maybe I'm missing something.

This is not a quick read. More like a reference book, and for this reason I would like to see an edition with an index. Still, my body enjoys looking at the energy circuits and I find this book inspiring. It also helped with my understanding of Emotional Freedom Techniques. www.emofree.com

A basic primer on inner alchemy along a somewhat eclectic Taoist bent. Practical for those who desire healing through meditation and the circulation of "chi," the life-force.

Quizá el libro que más ha cambiado mi vida. Aquí se presenta un paradigma de sexualidad sanador, completo, que puede mejorar la vida si se aplican tan solo algunos de sus enseñanzas. Es un libro con paradigma a veces incomprendido en occidente, pero muy necesario. Lo recomiendo absolutamente si tienes una inclinación a explorar formas diversas de vivir tu sexualidad.

I am intrigued by this book. First time encountering meditation in written text after being introduced to the practice a few months ago. It literally feels like a body and mind guide map. A guide to understanding my inner alchemy. Despite the fact that so many concepts were foreign to me , they have to be studied further for better understanding. It's a good boost for my meditation journey.

This book was recommended to me by my Chiong instructor. I listened to the audiobook during a long cross country drive and was glad to have accurate pronunciation read to me for some of the terms. The book was dry at times, but served its purpose.

Easily one of my favorite books.

Quite similar to his other books. Great insight on the mind, body and soul. Not something that can be learnt immediately.

Enlightening read. Mantak clearly and with extreme detail explains the Microcosmic Orbit and other methods of Tao meditation. I was able to apply many of what I was reading immediately.

I genuinely wish they would teach this stuff in school... You don't need to believe in any of this stuff, you simply should be curious enough to flirt with it.

a curious parallel to Hesychasm's fire in the reins.

It's a good book written in a basic language that everybody can understand, no esoteric/occult mysterious stuff that's decrypted in layers of misleading extractions. I think that you either resonate with this kind of material or have to go on blind fate (which can be very frustrating). I can tell you if it helps that there are many accounts of evidence that Chi energy exist and the more you look in to this the more you'll understand and get confident.
I don't know about his techniques, they work with me but it's definitely not the only one that will work. His microscopic orbit is not the “universal” technique form my point of view. I don't believe that chi flows like blood in it's vessels, there are key points but a lot of it has to do with mind regulation. Also he states in the book that he only teaches the “hardcore” stuff to people who are worthy and serve humanity, the same with other books of this kind. There is lot's of power and health benefits to gain from these materials, also it's a work and devotion book, maybe a quick read but not a quick do.

I found this book very good. I have been doing meditation on and off, i realized its calming effect. I found Mantak Chia from Conscious TV interview, and since I've restarted doing tai chi, I got interested. I've also got lot of problems in the head area(yeah, no physical), like teeth, thyroid etc, so I thought maybe this method could balance me. It's easy to read, very clear. Next step is self-discipline. But the book delivers. Does it work? well, been at it for a week, and I drop into a calm state almost immediately and fell my blood circulating well and making very warm. We will see!

I have not finished this book, but I have gotten a lot of good ideas and good exercises to practice from it.

While the writing style certainly lacks some polish, the energetic meditation described in this book has been producing some wonderful results for me.

Very weird. Haven't read this book since 1996, now picked it up again. Esoteric qigong techniques for creating your immortal energy body.
