21st Century Taoist Master — Mantak Chia

Throughout the North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Australia & Asia there is scarcely a person alive with an interest in Taoism that has not yet heard of Master Mantak Chia. Since his arrival in the West over forty years ago, Master Chia has travelled around the globe tirelessly conducting classes and workshops in the previously highly secret methods of Taoist Internal Alchemy.

People who have studied with him now number in the tens of thousands; it is highly likely that Master Chia has taught the Xiao Jiu Tien (Microcosmic Orbit Meditation) to more students than has any Taoist master in history. Master Chia began to attract attention in America in 1982, when his first book, Awaken Healing Energy Through the Tao, hit the book stand. Prior to that time, even the concept of Taoist internal Alchemy was known only to a handful of Taoist scholars, martial artists and Chi Kung students, and to those who had read vague references to Chi Kung in popular writings on Taoism.

Now in this booklet you will discover Mantak Chia’s amazing journey over last seventy-five years from his early childhood, background and training in Asia, moving to the West and founding the Healing Tao and global Taoist teachings and moving back to Asia establishing his International Tao Garden Training Center and the Universal Healing Tao System. This book traces his journey chronologically with over hundreds of pictures and descriptions of his teaching and students.
