fatguyslim Posted October 31, 2011 Hey everyone, I am trying to figure out whether the author of the book "Cultivating the energy of life" Liu Huayang the same as the author of "Awakening to the Tao" Liu I-ming? I believe they are different people but I could be wrong... My evidence to support this is on the left side of this site http://www.worldcat.org/identities/lccn-n85-331645, there are alternative names of Liu I-ming. Also the life of Liu I-ming seems to be different to Liu Huayang according to http://en.daoinfo.org/wiki/Liu_Yiming and http://tao-meditation.blogspot.com/2010/11/zen-master-liu-huayang.html. The only resemblance of the two is that they were born around the same time, which makes me think it could be the same guy. This is important to me because Liu I-ming never shared any information on any kind of practice for Tao, whereas Liu Huayang seem to have a practice which the Wuliupai school calls it a secret.

fatguyslim Posted November 1, 2011 劉一明: Liu Yiming 劉翼嗚: Liu I-ming These two are two different persons. I cannot find Liu HuaYang Click this link http://www.worldcat.org/identities/lccn-n85-331645... On the left side it shows the alternative names... Don't go by Chinese character mate as they have different difference in meaning as well. Anyways see the alternate names, it has both of the above characters... Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
