Individuals interested in practicing kung fu and tai chi are presented with basic meditation exercises.

Those not yet familiar with meditational practice and Chinese wisdom will find this book a guide to teachings whcih have inflluenced Eastern civilization for thousands of years.

The concepts are presented simply, with the aim of introducing new students to the age-old peaceful art of meditation as practiced by sages of the past and present.

All three (3) books, Kung Fu Meditations, Meditations of the Masters, and, Wisdom from the East, all adapted by Ellen Kei Hua are simply superb. Food for the mind and soul, these small works are inspirational and uplifting, simple and beautiful--and although these small books are so light in physical weight, they are full yet not burdensomely heavy in the content of the words printed upon the pages. The selections and adaptations are masterfully pieced together to form a terse comprehension of Eastern/Oriental wisdom and knowledge that is relevant for today and timeless for all ages. I've given these books as gifts as well, and they are loved by all.

The format is somewhat like a poem book. Each page contains a quote or two and some quotes have explanations. The quotes are simple and the language is easy, but the meaning behind them is amazing. There are some illustrations of Chinese characters with some relative meaning to the quote. Content The people of Asian culture have build meditative practices to coexist.

This is a very small and easy to read book. A good introducton to meditation. The book is mainly a small collection of chinese sayings and philosophy. You can read it cover to cover within an hour; but to study the words of wisdom will take a lifetime.
