Later books and training manuals
One of a series of short self-published titles on Mo Pai issued from 2025 onward. Fifty-five pages, no sources given, and no relationship to the lineage stated. Listed because it is on the shelf a reader searching for Mo Pai will actually find, and the archive would rather say what these are than leave them unmentioned.
The fullest book-length treatment of the training after Danaos, by an author whose background is in Western hermetics, Taoist nei gong, Tibetan alchemy and kundalini yoga rather than in the Mo Pai lineage. It covers…
A short book about the prerequisites: what the author holds a person must settle before level one is worth attempting. It discusses the first four levels without giving their practice, and it ends by directing the…
The one German-language book on the subject, presenting itself as a complete training and reference work that sets classical Taoist principles beside physiology, neuroscience and biomechanics. It follows the 72-stage…
Reads Mo Pai alongside Taoist internal alchemy and tantric physiology, and argues the whole thing is better understood as an early biological technology — nervous system regulation, breath control, polarity, endocrine…
An acupuncturist and palliative care practitioner in the UK going back over the existing record — the Ring of Fire footage and the accounts left by Chang’s two Western students — and setting it against what he knows…
The same author's treatment of what the training is said to do to the person doing it, and of the discipline the tradition places around that. Catalogued under both names because the listings differ: the paperback is…
The most detailed account in circulation of why unsupervised practitioners fall ill, and the origin of most of the harm literature that gets repeated as though it came from Chang. It is not from this lineage: Shifu Lin…
Correspondence with students, arranged by question. Useful for the texture of what people actually get stuck on, and subject to the same caution as the rest of this author’s material: it describes Mo Pai from outside…
A later title from the same author, on the continence requirement and what the tradition claims it is for. The same caution applies: recent, self-published, unsourced, and not a lineage document.
