How to read this work
Openness and discernment belong together.
The books draw from Chinese cultivation and Buddhist language. Some claims belong to traditional, philosophical, or personal practice contexts. Their value is not strengthened by presenting them as laboratory conclusions.
Read carefully. Compare. Observe your life. Ask what becomes clearer in conduct, attention, relationship, and responsibility.
