Opening Your Wisdom Heart

By: Beach, Jeffery

Opening Your Wisdom Heart is a spiritual memoir by Jeffery Beach that braids five decades of personal practice, spanning Daoist qigong, Tibetan Buddhism, Ch'an, and Western mysticism, into a single sustained argument: that the world's contemplative traditions are not competing paths but nine dialects of one discovery. The narrative opens with the author's chance introduction to a qigong master in 1980s San Francisco Chinatown and follows him through formal Buddhist Refuge under a senior Drikung Kagyü lama, into Ch'an and Pyrrhonist thought, and finally into conversation with Christian and Sufi mystics, arriving, in a late chapter titled "Nine Names for One Thing," at the book's organizing thesis.
