The Breath
0 - Default Title
Description
The "Breath", mystery of mysteries, is found in all Eastern, Far Eastern and Western traditions, whether Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Taoist, Brahmanic or Sikh, and is expressed as Ruah in Hebrew, Pneuma in Greek, Spiritus in Latin, Ruh in Arabic, Chi (Qi) in Chinese, Ki in Japanese, Prana in Sanskrit.
This book takes a look at these traditions and the importance of the "breath" in them, lifting the veil of secrecy that has covered it since the dawn of time. It provides an insight into its importance and meaning, not in a theoretical way, but through an experiential approach that enables the reader to become aware of its presence in concrete terms, and possibly to create a link with God, the Tao, the One, depending on the tradition.
This book is intended for those seeking spirituality, for seekers and pilgrims working towards union with the indescribable. It will also be useful to all those who practice meditation or sound work such as Mantra or Dhikr, or any art based on the "breath", from martial arts to yoga and calligraphy.
The author, Michel Chiambretto, a master of the Chinese internal arts, is a holder of the initiatory tools of an esoteric Taoist tradition kept secret for three millennia. He has also spent decades in Western initiatory circles.
