Product Description Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong: Qigong of Unconditional Love, A Return to Oneness Starting the practice of Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong is the first step of a journey to our origin. Our origin, our true homeland, is the state in which we experience the feeling of complete well-being. Returning there means discovering the true self - achieving insight into a wholeness that has never been lost, just forgotten. Always be at home, no matter where we are - always find wholeness no matter what the life circumstances may be - attaining this means merging with everything and knowing that there is only oneness.

A joyous approach to exercise, health and oneness December 7, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
A few months ago, I arrived at my first Qigong class on the evening when the teacher just happened to have decided to introduce the Qigong of Unconditional Love, as expounded in this book. Boy, was it meant to be. The book is beautifully produced, and illustrates each quigong with enough photographs to make the movements clear. There is also a detailed explanation of each. Profound, contemplative writings accompany the exercises. This book is a particular help to me as a Qigong novice, but I believe it would also add a whole new dimension of joy and fun to the practice and understanding of any more experienced student. Li Jun Feng's approach is so unlike exercise-as-we-know-it. It's much more about a childlike oneness and simplicity. And it's so much fun!
Incredible Qigong January 22, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've had the great opportunity to get to study weekly with Master Li Jun Feng. He's amazing and this qigong is powerful. The book is helpful, especially if you plan to pursue the teacher training track. I personally find the DVD's are better for personal practice, especially as a beginner.
WOW, This is what I have been looking for! June 15, 2005 3 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is the best Qigong form out there. You are a the one, you are infinite love. Practice Sheng Zhen to acheive heaven on earth. With forms inspiried by Kuan Yin, Jesus, Mohammed, and Lao Tzu, you realize heaven on earth, and one day, maybe we will all realize. Infinite stars. Infinite love. Infinite truth. I trust Li Jun Feng to show the way, so we can all "return to oneness" in every dimension. Physical and mental. Scientific and spiritual, this is supreme science. This is the Secret Teachings of All Ages.
Return to Oneness October 26, 2004 19 out of 21 found this review helpful
The book is written by the originator of this particular style of qigong, Master Li Jun Feng, and is the authoritative guide for any practitioner of Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong. It contains some background material, but is basically a 'how-to' book.
Every posture, or exercise, is described technically and is illustrated by photos of Master Li performing it. Additionally the postures has a set of contemplations that the practitioner can use to enhance the effect of the exercises. Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong is constructed as series of postures that each can take anywhere from 10 minutes to several hours to perform depending on the speed and number of repetitions of each exercise the practitioner wishes to do. There are four standing and three sitting series of postures as well as two different types of meditations that are all covered by this book.
Like any book of this kind it best serves the purpose of being a helpful additional tool and cannot fully replace the hands-on guidance of a good teacher. But as such it is excellent, with hundreds of good photos and easy-to-follow descriptions of each exercise. Any motivated qigong practitioner should be able to learn the forms from the book. Even more so if done in combination with the available videos.
The author is well known in China, as he used to be the head coach of the Beijing Wushu (martial art / kung fu) Team as well as the National Wushu Team for many years, He also starred in some Chinese martial arts movies before giving it all up to dedicate his time to develop and teach this beautiful and inspiring form of qigong.
I can personally vouch for the effectiveness of the Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong style of qigong when it comes to fulfilling the promises of Chinese energy cultivation. The exercises are easy to learn (but can be hard to master) and feel good to do. Unlike some other schools of qigong there are no stringent demands of what time of the day you should train, the cardinal directions and such. But it is no less 'serious' for that. Practicing Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong is effective for your health and well-being, and might do some very nice things for your mind and spirit as well.
