This book is primarily intended for looking up Zi Wei Dou Shu terms by users who do not know about ZWDS and beginners rather than a ZWDS chart reading guide book. However, if you have a grasp of the book, you will naturally know how to read a ZWDS chart. It is because the book helps you understand each brick and general structure of a house. Once you have a solid understanding, you can naturally build the house. All learning subjects have static and dynamic aspects. The static part is temporarily acquired by the learner, usually consisting of prerequisites and conceptual definitions. The static part is inherited from previous scholars and classic texts. The dynamic part is the result of the user's experience and the consolidation of knowledge. There are exceptional users who have the ability to revisit and upgrade the static part, such as Albert Einstein. But for most of us, when we first learn, we have to absorb the classical knowledge first and then apply and transform it later. Within the framework of this book, the terms are only explained in the most basic way to give you an idea and visualization, rather than providing complete and perfect explanations.
This groundbreaking book examines the changing Chinese legal system since 1978. In addition to historical analyses of changes at the economic, political-legal, and social levels, Liang gives special attention to crime and punishment functions of the legal system, and the current judicial system based on field research, i.e., court observations in both Beijing and Chengdu. The court system has been in a process of systemization, both internally and externally, seeking more power and relative independence. However, traditional influences, such as preference of mediation (over litigation) and substantive justice (over procedural justice), and lack of respect (from the masses) and guaranteed power (from the political structure), still have major impacts on the building and operation of the judicial system. Liang also shrewdly places the Chinese legal and political reform within the global system. This book, which reshapes our understanding of the economic, political, and essentially legal changes in China within the global context, will be crucial reading for scholars of Asia, law, criminal justice, and sociology.
The sky was filled with killing intent as it moved stars to change places. Killing intent filled the air. Dragons, snakes, and landings. The people wanted to kill, and the world seemed to be spinning around them. A combination of the gods and men, a myriad of variations. A 'Cyan Sack Scripture', a bell with a golden ring on it. The heart of a doctor was able to contain the world.

According to our plan, it is time to publish our second scripture, The Mysteries of Dharma Bodies. However, after our readers had finished reading the first scripture, Rectifying Fallacies of Modern Buddhism, most inquiries were concerning how to practice the Qingyang meditation method. The author feels obliged to publish a guidance book on the practice of the Qingyang meditation in order to help people go about their practice. *The meditation practice, as followed by the disciples of Buddha-to-Be Religion, has a legacy of lineage order; from ancient times up to this day, it has been passed down from generation to generation. This meditation practice originates from the correct Dharma. Therefore, our ancestors, who had undergone the practice of high-level meditation practice, cultivated and developed the high Dharma Bodies and eventually entered Nirvana. **The meditation our disciples practice is the “Meditation of Life and Wisdom.” But, in the earlier phase, we stress the practice of the “Meditation of Life” to help develop health and longevity, and in the later phase, we emphasize the practice of the “Meditation of Wisdom” to develop wisdom and potential.
