Sobre este item
The Secret of the Golden Flower is a Chinese Taoist book on neidan (inner alchemy) meditation, which also mixes Buddhist teachings with some Confucian thoughts, which was written in the late 1600s. First translated into German by sinologist Richard Wilhelm, a friend of Jung's, The Secret of the Golden Flower describes a straightforward and silent meditation method that has been characterized as "Zen with details." Cary F. Baynes translated that it into English and Jung provided commentary. This translation modernly popularized the work among Westerners as a Chinese "religious classic"; it is read in psychological circles for analytical and transpersonal psychology considerations of Taoist meditations, although it receives little attention in the East.
