Customer Reviews

The Path of Enlightenment is only for the serious~
The reason people give this LESS STARS is most likely due to their inability to comprehend the true dedication and long term commitment this training requires. The fact that this training has even been uncovered and now available for the lay person is a miracle! Dr. Yang has the trifecta of expertise (the rare ability of translating Ancient Chinese Writings, the know-how and expertise of The Oriental Arts, and a modern day expertise of science with a PhD in Physics from Purdue) which makes this work close to the pinnacle of his existence. This is not a quick read. A long term commitment to progression beyond your present comprehension is a good idea for this one. Do not start something you can't finish, this training is very very serious. It is life changing and it is exactly what Dr. Yang plans spending his retirement years now doing, amongst the giant redwoods, in northern California. This is only for the most serious meditators, but a MUST HAVE for a more encompassing understanding of your training, whatever your direction.

VARRY INFORMATIVE
VARRY INFORMATIVE! EXTREMLY DEATAILED! GOOD AUTHER VARRY OPEN AND WILLING TO EXEPT NEW THERIES AND SINENTIFIC INVESTIGATION! THIS INFO HAS BEN SECRET FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS AND IS NOW JUST STARTING TO BECOME AVALIBLE! GET THE BOOK BEFOR THIS ONE TO!

Important but not enough
The book is dangerous because:

Dr Yang admits he has no first hand experience and does not include any comments by any living masters who have experience in Marrow Washing. This is extremely discouraging because we don't learn this until near the end of the book (page 213) and also because there are difficulties in translating these ancient texts. Without first hand experience there is chance that something is mistranslated and that could lead to incorrect training and serious injury.

I doubt there is enough detail to complete Marrow Washing through all the levels. Nor do I believe you can correctly learn Muscle Tendon changing exercises with his limited photos. Lots of info here, but be prepared to buy one of his videos (the muscle tendon video references yet another book for breathing instructions!) and also buy books by other authors such as Mantak Chia. Still, you will never be able to verify that any living person on the planet has been able to read Dr Yang's book and complete the Marrow Washing based on his instructions.

I give Dr Yang 3 stars because the information seems important and is rare.
