Epigraph

Preface to the First Edition: From Health to Peace

Dedication

First words

The way of health-to-happiness should be open to everyone; it should be practical as well as theoretical.

To My Readers: If you should decide to study our five-thousand-year-old philosophy in order to realize infinite freedom, eternal happiness and absolute righteousness, understand that you must do this on your own, independently, by and for yourself, as do all animals, birds, insects and fish.
