Studying and practicing meditation for more than 50 years, starting at age 17, the author presents a method to perfect the golf swing guided by one's center of gravity. Having lived in a zen monastery, studied martial arts, physics, and ways to higher consciousness, it is all condensed here in a way that is unique to golf and the standard practice of "meditation." From the view of this book, so-called physical fitness today is only skin-deep robotics. It has no idea of internal mental control of movements by the right breathing and focus on center. Here, golf swing theory and meditation are displayed on a scientific basis both physically and mentally. It displays the fusion of mind and body by breathing and the alchemy of one-pointed concentration. This is for performance minded individuals wanting the laser focus to achieve their aims, whether on the golf course or in the pursuit of perfection in general. Centering has life-changing potential. Power in the physical world comes from motion in balance. This is done by hacking the human center of gravity and being from the center.
