REVIEWS
Taijiquan Journal Summer 2002
… a delightful variety of entries related to or arising from over thirty years of taiii and related practices. This is his second book of his meditations and it is well worth the investment– More than a personal journal of daily rneditations, 101 Reflections is instructional as well as inspirational. . . . What makes this set of reflections most valuable, however, is that while Gilman shares his expertise, experience, and philosophical approach; his is not a didactic voice. While he is not afraid to draw his own parallels between taiji practice and living fully in one’s life, his intention seems to be only to share, not to insist . . . . it offers something for everyone. is deep, lyrical, and grounded in practicality.
