Qianfeng Daoism (UK) Project
The Qianfeng Daoism (UK) Project is designed to introduce the subject of authentic Daoism from the point of view of Grand Master Zhao Bichen (1860-1942) whose self-cultivation background was primarily through the Longmen lineage of the Quanzhen Dao School. The 'Qianfeng', or 'Thousand Peaks' School was developed by Grand Master Zhao Bichen as a living record of his experience in 'neidan' (or 'inner cultivation') which involved a diverse collection of teachings, practices, and understandings. Implicit in this body of knowledge is the practice of various martial arts techniques, and other breath cultivation methods. This ICBI Project acknowledges that Master Zhao Ming Wang (b. 1966) of Beijing, (the great grandson of Zhao Bichen), is the current family lineage holder of the Qianfeng tradition, and strives to work in the West through the English translation of Zhao Bichen's self-cultivation manual entitled 'Taoist Yoga'.
