Into the Mountains: Exploring China’s Sacred Daoist Peaks by Debra Liu
Into the Mountains: Exploring China’s Sacred Daoist Peaks by Debra Liu is an immersive journey into the landscapes, traditions, history, and living spirituality of Daoism.
An ordained Daoist in the Quanzhen school, Debra takes readers through China’s sacred mountains—from the hidden caves of Huashan and the freshwater pools of Luofushan to the magnificent Gold Palace atop Wudangshan. Along the way, ancient legends, sacred scriptures, breathtaking landscapes, and centuries of tradition come alive.
Blending travel, history, Daoist philosophy, and contemporary spiritual practice, Into the Mountains reveals Daoism not simply as an ancient philosophy, but as a vibrant tradition that continues to be practiced today.
Perfect for readers interested in Daoism, Chinese culture, spirituality, sacred places, philosophy, history, and meaningful travel, Into the Mountains offers an opportunity to experience the enduring connection between landscape, tradition, and the search for deeper understanding.
