The LIUDAO and BAMBOO Assemblies are made up of people who are practicing "zuowang" non-conceptual meditation (1 hour a day) in a minimum one-year commitment. At present Liudao assembly has been meeting for more than 10 years and is full. The Bamboo assembly is open to new participants (see website for how to get instruction and join). These assemblies happen each month to study Laozi/Daodejing and the various practices of DYC.
The NOURISHING WITHIN series is about the inner/outer qi quality of the 24 Qi Nodes that define the seasons of the Chinese lunar almanac/calendar. What food, conduct and medical treatments are most effective in calibrating our qi to Nature (Dao) – what is health and synchronicity? References are made to Chinese almanac astrology, medical Classics, Daoist, Buddhist and Confucian philosophy and the direct experience of everyday life. These classes are open to everyone. The class includes lecture, cooking class/meal and discussion. (CEUs for California Licensed Acupuncturists are available).
The MANTIC ARTS series is presents Chinese Divination, Astrology and Fengshui (geomancy) in lecture format. This series is not a course. It is open to beginners and advanced students. Each month the presentation will be about an aspect of the Chinese mantic (divinatory) arts with time for questions/answers about the various applications contained in Liu Ming's forth-coming Mantic Arts workbook. Those attending each session have an opportunity to influence the following month's subject matter.
Liu Ming will be offering a lecture series on the History of Chinese Medicine at AIMC (2550 Shattuck Ave, Berkeley). Classes will meet Wednesdays from 11am-12:30pm beginning September 17 and continuing through mid-November ( 9 classes). Non-credit students may audit the course (tuition is 118.50 – to register contact Sara Taylor [registrar at AIMC at www.aimc.edu or 510 666 8248]).
