The Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道 - A podcast by Peter Hainzl

Well, my fellow listeners, I have done it. I have published the fifth book in ‘The Baguazhang Art of War’ series. The title of this new volume is ‘The Baguazhang Living Tao 八卦掌活道’. And it is the deepest one yet. It contains the Living Tao podcasts plus stuff about my baguazhang life that I have never mentioned before; except to people who know me personally. This book is about life and death. Or more accurately about the state of transition that exists when one life dies and a new life is born. That space in between the two realities. And once again, if a person is searching, yet again, for another Baguazhang how-to manual full of lovely posture diagrams and photos, they won’t find it here. It’s not that I am trying to do reverse psychology on you all. What I just said before is a fact. This book is more for the person who, when they do Baguazhang, find themselves thinking a lot about the big questions and are wanting to go deeper with their experiences. They aren’t necessarily satisfied with their shifu’s answers, and their bros and mates aren’t ‘there yet’. And while the book may not answer every question, it is hoped that my own series of little adventures and insights would help some people along their own Tao. But that I will leave up to the reader to decide for themselves. Have a great night.
