Riassunto:

This book reveals the meaning and practice of Abba-Imma Qigong, an embodied Lord´s Prayer. It includes Reverend Steve Harms´explanations of the linguistic and historical contexts for his revitalized wording of this foundational Christian prayer and explanations and photos along with instructions of the Abba-Imma Qigong form by Kaleo Ching. Abba-Imma Qigong is where East meets West in a blend of Judeo-Christian and Daoist/Chinese Medicine wisdom and compassion. It invokes and honors Abba-Imma, the Father-Mother God, the Divine Source. It is a unique form of prayer, of praying with the body, mind, and spirit to inspire an enhanced intimacy with the Divine beyond and within.
