Lu K'uaan Yu is one of the foremost interpreters of Chinese meditation practices. This concise volume is a presentation of different methods of meditation as practiced in China, including extracts from ancient and modern classics as well as practiced and detailed suggestions for meditation. Meditation is crucial for the development of consciousness, and the Taoist art of controlling the breath is a prerequisite for training in the martial arts. The Secrets of Chinese Meditation provides students with practical instructions for controlling the breath and calming the mind- the foundation of self-realization. The way to consciousness will be different for all individuals. This classic work is a source book that encourages you to knowledgeably choose the way most useful to your chosen path."

The tantric tradition plays a major role in Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism, yet its teachings are still little understood and often distorted in the West -- particularly due to the powerful erotic and sensual symbolism of the literature and the apparently amoral tendencies of the teachings. This classic text offers an in-depth study of the tantric tradition. The author analyzes from within the literary, liguistic, ideological, philosophical and ritualistic patterns of tantrism illustrating them with passages from the Indian and Tibetan texts. Mantra, intitiation, male-female polarity, symbolism, history of tantrism. 350 pp; cloth over hardback boards; 30 page bibliography; index.

C.J. Jung's work in his later years suggested that the seemingly divergent sciences of psychology and modern physics might, in fact, be approaching a unified world model in which the dualism of matter and psyche would be resolved. Jung believed that the natural numbers are the archetypal patterns that regulate the unitary realm of psyche and matter, and that number serves as a special instrument for man's becoming conscious of this unity. In Number and Time, Marie-Louise von Franz explores Jung's hypothesis. Her discussions of the theory of number draw on a wealth of material from eastern philosophy, ethnology, archaeology, and mythology, as well as natural sciences and mathematics. The book includes explorations of the psychological aspects of mathematics, a discussion of number as a psychophysical energy pattern, and a description of mandalas (structures of the unconscious in mathematically symmetrical patterns similar to models in western physical science). In addition, Dr. von Franz develops Jung's concept of synchronicity, the causal relation between meaningful coincidental events, and relates it to the theory of divination. Number and Time is a piece of original scholarship which introduces a view of how 'mind' connects with 'matter' at the most fundamental level.
