About the Author

From the age of twelve, Waysun Liao studied with a wandering Taoist and in a Taoist temple until he became a full Taichi and Tao master. Considered one of the world's foremost authorities on traditional Taoist wisdom and Chi arts, he is the founder and master of one of the oldest Taichi centers in North America, which is located in Oak Park, Illinois. He is one of the few remaining Tao masters carrying and transmitting the ancient oral traditions concerning the power of Tao, and shares his wisdom with students across the world.

Master Liao is the author of several books, including Tao: The Way of God, Nine Nights with the Taoist Master, Chi: Discovering Your Life Energy, Essence of T'ai Chi, and the acclaimed T'ai Chi Classics, which has been translated into nine languages. In addition, he has compiled a complete Taichi learning system on DVD, preserving the ancient temple teachings on moving meditation, the Tao, and internal energy development.

Editorial Reviews

"...Nine Nights with the Taoist Master is unique and insightful, highly entertaining, likely provocative, and well worth the read. I usually juggle several books at once, moving back and forth as the mood hits me or as boredom takes over. But once I began reading this, I set other readings aside. It was that engrossing...There are many important lessons to be had here, and I plan to reread this book. Nine Nights with the Taoist Master will be one of the books I return to time and time again."
