The Flower of Authenticity

The Flower of Authenticity describes a unique worldview derived from Ancient Chinese philosophical and medical sources. It shows how the divine is innately within each and every person from birth, what happens when we cultivate this unity, and what happens when we ignore it. Ignoring it leads to a systematic breakdown within the individual on the physical, psycho-emotional, and spiritual levels and leads to a contentious and unsustainable world where suffering occurs through what appear to be random and chaotic influences. In contrast, cultivating our essential unity in our daily lives results in comprehensive healing for the individual and the natural achievement of One Peaceful World for society as a whole.

This book guides the reader through the early Chinese philosophies at the foundation of this worldview and then integrates them with the specifics of ancient Chinese Medicine so that a comprehensive level of unity for healing both the individual and society as a whole can be attained. It is recommended specifically for acupuncturists, but also can be exceedingly useful for the common, ordinary reader as well as for those trained in psychology. Reviews include the following:

“Sweeping in its scope and relentlessly practical in its clinical significance, The Flower of Destiny is an intensive exploration of some of the deepest philosophical underpinnings of Chinese medical thought. Dennis Willmont has mined the ancient classics for precious insights into the connections between character and mind-body health.”

John E. Pirog, MSOM

“Dennis Willmont’s latest volume in his series on the “Dàodéjīng” reminds us not to lose sight of the true power of Chinese Medicine. Beyond the symptomatic-focus of allopathic medicine, Willmont redirects our attention to the classical spirit of healing as a cultivation practice. Willmont presents the “Dàodéjīng” as a guidebook to decode the messages of the Body/Mind, and to ground and direct our work as healers and fellow self-cultivators. His is an impressive contribution to the practice of Chinese Medicine as wholistic spirit medicine.”
