I found the author's descriptions in this book very interesting, and they were all based on real experiences. Most importantly, the author has very positive values.
I'm not very good at writing reviews, but I could feel the author's sincerity and authenticity between the lines. I'll follow this thread and hope the author will continue writing when they have free time. Finally, it's reached 7.0! [Added to bookshelf] [Currently working on a manuscript] I've been a bookworm for many years, reading all kinds of novels. Now, I prefer novels that depict realistic life without exaggeration.
This is the first time I've heard of shamanic practices in Jiangsu province. I've heard it's prevalent in Northeast China. The author is a licensed Taoist priest, and it seems Taoists really enjoy dealing with matters related to spirits.
If one's own frequency reaches the same level as a ghost, they can make contact. Similarly, what if one's frequency is the same as that of a deity? Wouldn't they be able to see each other? When Taoist priests and monks perform rituals, chanting scriptures and using hand seals, do they do this to raise their own frequency to the same level as the deity they wish to communicate with, thus…
After reading this Taoist autobiography, my preconceived notions about the mystical and ethereal life of Taoist cultivation were completely changed. The author, with a simple and straightforward style, records his complete journey of entering the Tao, becoming a disciple, and practicing under a master.
I really enjoyed the author's sharing of life experiences, which deepened my understanding of Taoism. The little tidbits were also very practical. I would like to thank the author for their efforts and welcome more sharing from them. Keep up the good work and I'll be following their updates!
I've been interested in Taoism since childhood, but I didn't know where to find a master. The author mentioned the Taoist Association several times in the book, so I thought I'd try going there to see if a Taoist priest could recommend a suitable master. So, I excitedly went to the "Guangdong Provincial Taoist Association," located at Room 508, Liulong Building, Liulong Road, Guangzhou.
To be honest, some of the things described in the book are things I've personally experienced, and only now am I realizing their significance, regretting not waking up sooner! I'm also from Northeast China, living and working in Yunnan, and compared to the stories in the author's book, I feel like I've wasted my life. The past is vivid in my memory; I need guidance. [Salute]
It's very realistic; it doesn't deliberately exaggerate any fantastical elements. The Taoist priest is compassionate.
Very genuine and authentic; I learned a lot from it. The author is very sincere.
