I believe that this question asked before at least one another time or maybe more than that. Anyway I think if you ask in /omg/ you can reach an answer more qui k.

>left hand path
>in China
It doesn't exist.

If you mean Left Hand as in how western civilization (and middle eastern.) perceives it, no. But China does have it's own Left Hand path. Gong Tau is what I think it is called. Might be wrong.
But China, and Japan, and all of Asia have equivalents of everything the west has. And they have the luxury of not having Abrahamic religions fucking everything up beyond recognition.

/x/ cannot tell you shit about this. The consensus among all magicians I know, a few of which have exhausted good connections and resources trying to satisfy the very curiosity that led you to start this thread, is that Westerners have not ever been given much authentic information about this, aside from the fact that it seems to exist. No Anglophone would be able to discover enough to base their own practice on it.
Plant trees and save the environment. Export them if it makes it easier on the economy.

Basically this. Texts and sources about taoist magic are pretty much nonexistent in English language. It's the same case with Arabian magic and Tibetan sorcery. Don't even touch them without knowing the language, you will simply don't be able to understand anything.

I do not claim to be a magician/sorcerer/wizard/practitioner/magic-user/etc, nor do I claim to know that this book is accurate. I generally lean towards skepticism. However, I like collecting interesting bits of lore or works floating out there in web. Pulling at some threads a few years ago I stumbled across this.

It's at least somewhere to start. Hope it helps.

Anon who wrote >>17741926. I have been told by several people that this particular work falls under the heading of "fake and gay", but do not really know enough about why that is supposedly the case to personally confirm or deny it.
I suspect you probably could get whatever is in there to work just fine, it's just, as I understand it, more or less the equivalent to Chinese magic of what Harner's shit was to "shamanism".

Because water tends to condense onto it very easily.

I suspected as much. Thanks.
