Taoism n' stuff
just reading eva wongs book on the history of taoism. Have a look here. Not sure what to make of it all yet, although it is an interesting book. I’m certainly more interested in the philosophy rather than the religon although the shamanic side is interesting. Could shamans talk to animals? That would be handy. seems unlikely to me though. hmm… could one intuit what an animal is thinking/wants? i guess thats plausible. hmm.. proof would only come by experience i guess. Haven’t got to t’ai chi yet. There are references to taoist yoga-like movements, which interests me immensely. I practiced some of these when studying lee style at the croydon buddhist centre. I could find no texts on these at the time and since joined the wudang school.
I wonder if what they share with yoga and/or pilates if anything. hmm….
