The Teachings of Immortals Chung And Lu
Translated by Eva Wong

Here is a classic Chinese text on the Taoist arts of longevity and immortality. The text dates from the Five Dynasties (907 - 960 CE) and is attributed to Chungli Ch'uan and Lu Tung-pin - two of the most popular figures of Taoism and Chinese culture. The text focuses on Taoist inner alchemy, a theory and method for transforming the mind from within by using practices such as breath control, calisthenics, meditation practices, and sexual alchemy (the method of gathering energy from a sexual partner).

'The Art of Health, Longevity, and Immortality' will be of interest to both beginning students of Taoism and scholars. Wong's introduction includes a concise overview of the evolution of Taoist longevity practices as well as an elucidating section for those who are unfamiliar with the teachings and practices of Taoist inner alchemy. She also includes a list of helpful hints for reading and understanding each section of the text.
