Hardback. Condition: New. Daoism is the indigenous higher religion of traditional China. Growing from a philosophical root and developing through practices of longevity and immorality, it has found expression in communal organizations, ritual structures, and age-old lineages. A multifaceted tradition, Daoism in the 2,500 years of its history has related to women in a number of different ways matching the complexity of other religions, where the relationship to the female is often ambiguous and ambivalent. They commonly see motherhood, sexuality, fertility, esoteric knowledge, and secret powers as closely linked with the feminine and evaluate these aspects positively. But many religions also relegate women to inferior status, considering them of a lower nature, impure and irresponsible, and often suppressing them with greater or lesser severity.The complexity of women's positions is particularly poignant in the Daoist case, since the religion is caught between its ideal cosmological premise of the power of yin and the realities of a strongly patriarchal society following the Confucian model. That is to say, cosmologically Daoism sees women as expressions of the pure cosmic force of yin, necessary for the working of the universe, equal and for some schools even superior to yang. Daoism also links the Dao itself, the force of creation at the foundation of the cosmos, to the female and describes it as the mother of all beings. Within the religion there is a widespread attitude of veneration and respect for the feminine, honouring the cosmic connection as well as the productive and nurturing nature of women.

"This book is awesome. It reads clearly and fluently. The topics of the chapters make sense; the arguments are convincing and well-supported. The authors are thoroughly conversant with the fields of Daoist studies, Chinese history, and women's studies. This book has no rival. It should instantly become a standard." - Susan Cahill, University of California, San Diego" Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke; Gebrochener Buchrücken. La moelle du Phénix Rouge (Chiffeng Sui) XVIe siècle De nos jours, le Qigong s?est répandu au point de supplanter des techniques comme le yoga ou la sophrologie. Pourtant, rares sont les pratiquants qui en connaissent vraiment l?origine et sont conscients de la diversité des méthodes que recouvre cette pratique. L?ouvrage qui est ici traduit, La Moelle du phénix rouge, présente des procédés de Qigong traditionnel réunis à la fin du XVIe siècle par Zhou Lüjing. On ne peut trouver meilleur exemple de la richesse et de la diversité de cet Art ancestral, visant à harmoniser le corps, le souffle et l?esprit.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Taoísmo y alquimia femenina Inmortales de la China antigua Catherine Despeux La alquimia interior practicada por los taoístas apuntaba a la obtención de la inmortalidad a partir de diversos métodos psicofisiológicos utilizando los ingredientes del cuerpo. Aunque existen bastantes obras de alquimia destinadas al hombre, la literatura sobre la alquimia femenina es casi inexistente. Sin embargo, la mujer ha estado presente en el taoísmo desde su aparición. Los escritos de alquimia incluso afirman que la mujer podía realizar la Gran Obra con mayor rapidez que el hombre por gozar del inmenso privilegio de ser madre. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
