Daoism, Meditation, and the Wonders of Serenity From the Latter Han Dynasty (25-220) to the Tang Dynasty (618-907)【電子書籍】[ Stephen Eskildsen ]
＜p＞Stephen Eskildsen offers an overview of Daoist religious texts from the Latter Han (25?220) through Tang (618?907) periods, exploring passive meditation methods and their anticipated effects. These methods entailed observing the processes that unfold spontaneously within mind and body, rather than actively manipulating them by means common in medieval Daoist religion such as visualization, invocations, and the swallowing of breath or saliva. Through the resulting deep serenity, it was claimed, one could attain profound insights, experience visions, feel surges of vital force, overcome thirst and hunger, be cured of ailments, ascend the heavens, and gain eternal life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞While the texts discussed follow the legacy of Warring States period Daoism such as the ＜em＞Laozi＜/em＞ to a significant degree, they also draw upon medieval immortality methods and Buddhism. An understanding of the passive meditation literature provides important insights into the subsequent development of Neidan, or Internal Alchemy, meditation that emerged from the Song period onward.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
