Dancing Wu Li Masters: An Overview of the New Physics (Perennial Classics)

At an Esalen Institute meeting in 1976, tai chi master Al Huang said that the Chinese word for physics is Wu Li, "patterns of organic energy." Journalist Gary Zukav and the others present developed the idea of physics as the dance of the Wu Li Masters--the teachers of physical essence.

Zukav explains the concept further: The Wu Li Master dances with his student.

The Wu Li Master does not teach, but the student learns.

The Wu Li Master always begins at the center, the heart of the matter....

This book deals not with knowledge, which is always past tense anyway, but with imagination, which is physics come alive, which is Wu Li....

Most people believe that physicists are explaining the world.

Some physicists even believe that, but the Wu Li Masters know that they are only dancing with it.
