For over one thousand years, the timeless Qìgōng classics of Bodhidharma (Dámó) have been considered the key to enlightenment and long-lasting youth.

Dr. Yáng, Jwìng-Mǐng, long acclaimed for helping readers better understand Qìgōng concepts, has translated and written commentaries for both the Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic (Yìjīnjīng) and the Marrow/Brain Washing Classic (Xǐsuǐjīng). Using ancient Buddhist and Daoist documents as its foundation, this book analyzes and discusses theory and training methods in a modern and scientific manner. This double-edged approach will enable you to quickly achieve a high level of understanding of these profound Qìgōng regimens.
